~How do you relax?
:lol: My brother works in a factory and he uses that fact as an excuse for everything. One time, I was pushing some buttons on the microwave to warm up something, and apparently, I wasn't doing it fast enough because my brother ran up and said, "Move! I work in a factory!". Then he pushed the buttons for me. :P Then, one time we were walking down the hallway at school to lunch and a guy slammed his locker and the door fell off. My brother ran over and yelled, "IT'S ALRIGHT! I WORK IN A FACTORY!". Then he proceeded to take the locker door and run.

What game do you have the most memorys about?
Diddy Kong Racing- The first game I ever played/owned, and the only game to this day that my dad will play with me. :D The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time- So amazing for its time... The first game storyline that I ever got completely enveloped in. The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind- A friend told me about it and I bought it at Wal-Mart for $10 for PC. :P I still play this game without getting bored. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion- I went through hell just to be able to play this game. And when I got it, everything I went through (including all the money I spent) was worth it. :D I was up late playing it just last night.

The "I Hate America Club"?
Yeah I've noticed this. But, I do notice that it's everywhere as well. Even though I live in America, it doesn't really bother me. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I personally don't care for the concept of nationalism, but I can understand how people would be proud of the country they're from. The only thing that really bothers me is when someone says, "I hate Americans (or people from any other country for that matter)" without having anything to back it up with. Or if they do have something to back up their statement, it's usually an ignorant generalization. Like, "I hate Americans because they're fat and loud." I don't think that you should judge someone based on the country they're from. But, that's just my opinion.

~How do you relax?
When I feel stressed, I like to take a walk too. ^_^ And I hate the hot weather too. :x So, I usually walk at night.

~How do you relax?
I spend some time with my friends. They have this knack for helping me forget ANYTHING that's on my mind. :P

School Issues
If anyone, regardless of gender, even as much as lays a finger on me without my permission. I'd hit. And it hit back hard. View me as what you will. But women can take care of themselves just fine now. They have equal rights and everything. I'll gladly take this to pm's so I don't derail thread even more. :) I would just like to say one thing from a girl's point of view. ^_^ One time, I was sitting at a table in our school cafeteria with two guys and a girl. A male friend of mine walked up and said, "Kayla... I really think I broke my hand yesterday. Will you take a look at it?" He looked like he was in a lot of pain and his hand looked absolutely terrible. I asked him what he had done to it. He said that he was working on his car the day before and that he dropped a whole engine on top of it. :\ I asked my friend to put his hand flat on the table if he could. He agreed and set his hand down, wincing. He couldn't lay it flat on the table. Just as I was telling him that he needed to check out of school and go to the hospital, the girl sitting beside me laughed, rose her fist up in the air, and slammed it down as hard as she could on my friend's BROKEN HAND. She sat there laughing as he screamed and grabbed his hand. Then he punched her in the ribs with his good hand HARD. I didn't blame him AT ALL. Then he walked away on the verge of tears to get some ice from the kitchen in the cafeteria to put on it. The moment he hit her, she shut up and got pissed. After he walked away, she started going off to me and the other two guys at the table about how she was a girl and my friend shouldn't have hit her. I calmly explained to her that she sat there and watched and listened to our exchange of dialog and that I had no idea what possessed her to hit someone's broken hand. I never talked to her again after that. The thing is, if a girl hits a guy, she shouldn't sit back and laugh like she's got some sort of immunity. I have no problem with a guy hitting a girl back if she hits him first.

Any Editors Here?
Thousands of years ago, cave people tediously hunted dangerous, wild animals just to satisfy a single meal̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâæ maybe 2. Sometimes they got injured hunting these animals. Sometimes the animal would even escape, rendering all their hard work useless. Even if they did manage to catch a wild deer, they would have somehow cut the animal up, make some source of heat and then ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâcook̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ it. This process would take a least 4 hrs, assuming that they were successful. Nowadays, with our advances in technology, we can just pick up our phones and dial up to the nearest Pizza Hut delivery service and order food there. Our access to food is so much easier because of technology. It is also more hygienic. Water, which is essential to our everyday lives, is cleaner because of technology. Imagine having to drink impure water, filled with bacteria and dirt like the cavemen did. Technology also helps us to communicate more efficiently. Who here has a computer with MSN Messenger installed or a phone? Imagine your life without phones or the internet. Without technology, we would probably still be sending messages and letters via pigeons. With technology, you could just turn on your computer and send messages to people who live suburbs, cities, and even countries away. There are also mobile phones, where you can call and text messages to one another. Even now, Google has created a portable map that you can download onto your mobile phone. So if you ever get lost, you could just take out your phone and find your location. Transportation is made easier with technology. Before hi-tech transport was available, people had to walk everywhere. Going overseas to other countries was nearly impossible. Many people were even ignorant to the existence of other countries. Long ago, people considered the world being flat to be common knowledge. Of course, with photos from satellites orbiting the Earth, we now know today that the world is round. Also with our advance in technology and medicine, the average life expectancy has risen dramatically. Eg, from 1900 to 2000, the mortality rate has decreased from 103 to 5.4 out of every 1000 babies in Australia, which is a 94.9% decrease. With all the medical advancements, people are less likely to suffer from diseases that could be easily prevented today. Our lifestyle is getting better with technology. We don̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t have to do as much physical work. Eg Instead of hand washing clothes, we use a washing machine. Whenever you need help with your conclusion, just post it and I'll be happy to help you. :D

Ever been in a Car Accident? Post your stories.
I've been in a few. On my first day of first grade, some lady in a truck hit us while my mom was driving. :( It scared the bejeesus out of me cuz my dad always used to make me watch those 911 shows in which they bring people into the Emergency Room after their car just exploded in wreck. :S It was very scary for me at that age. But, anyway, it was the lady's fault and she tried to split. I've never seen my mom get that mad at total stranger before. :D The rest have just been minor fender benders. :P

Pet Peeves?
The way my English teacher is always talking about God, church, and the Bible. People with bad breath who feel the need to shower you in it. Loud people. Promiscuous people. Habitual liars. Emos and gangsta wannabes. Most of the popular music these days. People who try too hard to be "random" and "individual". Rudeness. And people who don't say "bye" before hanging up the phone. Not much bothers me when it comes to the internet... Because, c'mon. It's the internet, people. ;)

Your parents & Computers. Can they handle them?
Both of my parents are completely hopeless when it comes to computers. They ask me incessant questions about them, and ask me to teach them how to do things. I'm as patient as I can be with them though. The odd thing is, I'll teach them how to do something and the next day, they've completely forgotten how to do it! O.O Like, I taught my mom how to save a file, then how to browse for the file to upload it. I teach her how to do this every single day. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. FOR. FOUR. MONTHS. She still doesn't get it. :lol:

Should parents have a say?
A lot of things that come in a relationship are often times misunderstood and not taken seriously enough by kids. Plus love is a powerful thing. A parent needs to be there to provide guidance for the kid. I'm not saying they should stick their nose into everything, but that's a part of life that someone can really go wrong with, in my opinion. Especially when it comes to sex and the other things involved.

Attraction and Revulsion
I can't think about anything really that I'm unattracted to when it comes to the male form. ^_^ I guess the only thing I really dislike about the opposite sex is a man that is too skinny. It's the same with women though too. I just don't like people who are too skinny. :?

Had a run-in with a fox or somethin
Nearly hit a fox on the way to school the other day. :? I don't like hitting animals. Once I hit a bird and cried for probably 20 minutes afterward. :(

Bad day in chemistry class
Handling Hydrochloric Acid has always made me scared. :( I've never really had an accident with a chemical, but we had to heat up a test tube of H202 one time, then weigh it. I used the clamps to take the test tube from above the burner and set it on the scale, and the damn test tube rolled off the scale and landed on a plastic tray. It burned all the way through the plastic. :shock:
