Bags During School

I wrote my 3rd essay just now and it was about how we can’t have bags in school! So that’s what I’m blogging about as well. I think its pretty dumb that we don’t get to carry bags around anymore. We shouldn’t have got the privilege taken away in the first place. I understand that if someone is going to bring a weapon to school that they could put it in a backpack. They could still successfully get it into the school with a backpack and leave that backpack in their locker. And I’m sure if someone was really determined to shoot up the school they wouldn’t be stopped by not having a bag to put their gun in.

Back when bags were allowed last year I always had the stuff I needed for class. I would hardly ever stop at my locker and I didn’t ever have to leave class to get my stuff. Because I didn’t have to go to my locker I wouldn’t be late for classes either. This year I only carry my materials for one class at a time, so I stop at my locker in-between every period. I usually talk to people during passing time to. I could probably just not talk to people and be on time but that’s no fun. It would benefit kids and teachers if we got bags back because us kids wouldn’t be late so we wouldn’t get tardies. And the teachers wouldn’t have to give us obnoxious kids as many detentions from tardies.

I think its pretty dumb that the whole school lost the privilege to carry bags because one person was stupid. Whoever that person was should go say sorry to the school people and tell them that they promise not to bring guns to school so everyone else can get their backpacks back.

Procrastination/Follies/bieber

Its 10:15 on Sunday night and I’m just starting my homework. I don’t know why I procrastinate so much, its not like I do anything all weekend. For some reason I always wait until Sunday night to do my homework. I could have easily gotten this done at some point this weekend. I could have done it instead of playing Xbox all day or sleeping until 1 o’clock. Luckily all I have to do is this blog and then I’m done.

Today instead of doing my homework I went to the Follies. They were pretty awesome. My favorite part of the Follies was when the justin bieber song was Rick Rolled. Urban Dictionary defines Rick Rolled as “Deceiving a person or people to somehow watch, or see the "Never Gonna Give You Up" video by Rick Astley. Rick Rolling can also be a real life act of the music clip - normally by playing the song and having an impostor sing or dance to the video. Thus "Rick Rolling" the unsuspecting audience.”

Notice how I didn’t capitalize justin biebers name up in that paragraph. That was intentional. I don’t think it deserves to have its name capitalized. He/She/It doesn’t even deserve a name. It should just be some nameless creature that is looked down upon by everyone. I don’t just hate justin because of her high pitched, annoying voice. I also dislike her because she made a stupid movie. I have not and do not plan on seeing its movie. I don’t have to see it to know its stupid, it just is. Do not waste your money in seeing it, you will regret it. By staring at that girlish face for two hours the majority of your brain cells will die. One two three four five six seven eight more words.

Skiing

This weekend I went cross country skiing at the lime creek nature center. My mom, dad, sister, my sisters friend, this other weird girl, and I all went. It was the first time that any of us had ever skied(?) before. We were all pretty terrible at it and fell down a lot. They had a bunch of skis and poles for people to use at the nature center but there was a ton of people there so we had to wait a long time for our turn. While we waited we looked at all the cool stuff out there. We looked at all the stuffed dead critters and the birdies outside and all the cool nature junk. After that we drank some hot coco and made sugar cube houses.

There were also snow shoes that you could use but those didn’t look as fun so we didn’t try them. Once we got out there and had our skis on and what not they showed us how to ski. You just slide your feet and push with the ski poles. It took some time to get used to and we fell a lot. I would maybe like to try skiing down a hill or something next time because cross country skiing across the flat ground is kind of boring.

Once we were finished skiing we were all tired so we went and cooked some hot dogs and marshmallows over a fire. We sat around and looked at all the cool nature stuff some more. Before we left they had a door prize thingy. When we came in we had to write our name down and they put all the names in a hat and drew for prizes. Me and my mom both won a prize! She got some sunglasses that were pretty sweet and I got this awesome little bird that you squeeze and it makes a bird chirp noise.
