For a while I thought that Algebra was the spawn of Satan...

If the acne's giving you trouble see your family doctor. There are plenty of prescription drugs that work wonders especially for girls. I hope all goes well for you. -
I've been waiting forever to post here. I've been avoiding any and all information related to the book because my friend ruined the 6th one for me by sending me a link showing the "big secret". I just finished reading it and it was ridiculously good. Except maybe that little end bit...it seemed to random. I'm happy yet sad to see it end. Can't wait for the movies to come out for the last two. I really hope she creates a new fantasy series that moves away from wizards and magic. She's an amazing author.

I'm currently working during the summer months only (May - August) and attending school the rest of the time. I work for the BC government doing property taxes. It's a boring desk job but it pays $17.70/hour so I can't complain, really helps with tuition.

I can't drink any of the new drinks that are coming out now like Coca Cola Zero and the countless others. I mean, how many chemicals are there in that drink to make it zero calories. I cringe at the thought of it.

My friend showed me this story once and I literally couldn't get through it all. By the end of it my sides hurt so much. There's so much to learn from this story.

The reason why young couples don't last is because if you think about you're not the same person you were when you were 10. A lot of people have completely different thoughts, likes, dislikes etc. Unless ALL your opinions of of the world don't change when you grow up (which is nearly impossible) then maybe I can see that young relationship lasting. It's ridiculous to think that people won't change as they grow older.

I think fate is partially predetermined and in other ways we control it. You could say that during our lifetime we are faced with decisions which are destined to happen but how we handle those decisions determines how our life unfolds. As for the Final Destination movies...I really wouldn't take them seriously. I mean, the chances of someone dying the way those people did are so slim.

At home: nothing At Work: Car keys, cell phone, MP3 player, wallet. I honestly hate when there's a lot of stuff in my pockets. As soon as I get to work/home I empty my pockets onto my desk.

Primal instinct? Maybe somewhere deep in our brains we're still cavemen who are afraid of being hunted by larger animals. It's also one of the reasons why we sleep at night and not during the day, the darkness helps hide us. A guess another reason is when we're young we're all a little afraid of the dark and that fear is still kind of around. The last reason I can think of is that your brain is like, "Oh my gosh, I can't see anything, turn on the light you fool!" And your actions are almost involuntary.

Next time use your words, it's what separates us from animals. I don't see what the big fuss is, if you're in high school your relationship is bound to end in the next couple of months and all this hubbub will be a waste of your life. Focus on school, girls will come and go.

Pretty good, I think. Nice test.

1. New Car 2. Garlic 3. Fresh mint 4. Freshly cut grass during the summer (not the moldy smell, the really sweet smell). 5. An assortment of random girly perfumes I get a waft of every now and then.

Never had one but I've witnessed one and they're not pretty. It's final exam time and during my Cell Biology exam a girl had a huge anxeity attack and they had to call the paramedics. She didn't look too good.

Woah, 5 years. Hmmm. I'll start with the inevitable: 1. I'll be finishing off my Major in BioPsych 2. I'll hopefully be in my 2nd year of med school 3. I'll still be in school avoiding real life.

Ya, that kind of sucks for you. When I was grade 2 I would get in tons of trouble because I'd distract other kids from doing their addition because I'd get it done so fast. My mom pushed for me to get bumped up into the 3rd grade but the school insisted that it would be "emotionally damaging" as I wouldn't fit in sociallly. Schools are dumb.

Umm, I don't think an online forum is the BEST place to look for answers to this question but your friend is definitely showing signs of suicidal behaviour (cutting himself, talking about suicide). Most people who want to commit suicide also start to give away their possessions, especially those which are close to them. I suggest you contact a psychologist at school, or a mental health clinic. Your friend may hate you for doing that but a friend that's mad at you is better than a dead friend.

I don't know how many of you live in Vancouver but Science World has an exhibit. I went to it a couple weeks ago and it was definitely the most interesting thing I've seen in a while. The bodies displayed at the exhibit weren't creepy but thinking about the guy preparing these bodies, cutting them up, posing them etc. Other than that, it's definitely a must see!

I think we can all agree that preaching a religion is a lot different than learning about one. I think schools should definitely teach the history and the basic premise of each religion but not try and spread it to other subjects. Nothing is worse than being ignorant of the things you hate.
-
Hmmm....I sing loudly when I'm home alone. Like really loud because no one is watching. It's tons of fun. Sometimes I dance.
-
I like to think I'm indifferent when it comes to relgion but that doesn't mean I don't want to hear about it. Nothing is worse than being ignorant about something you don't agree with.

Or you could just live in a small town and buy it with no waits whatsoever because well....you're from a small town. I like where I live, it's big but not big enough that there's ever anything sold out that's popular (e.g. PS3 etc). People who pay double the price of a PS3 are just silly. I can wait a couple of months past Christmas to get one (I don't plan on it). I'd rather get an electric guitar.

I'm highly impressed man, I can appreciate your talent because I've learned all the classical songs you played. Too bad I haven't taken the time to learn some pop songs. Good on you, I especially like how you changed up Fur Elise and the improvised transitions. Oh ya, I forgot to mention I know because I've been playing for 8 years and I also wanted to add that Muse rocks my socks off.

These kids have no concious and all deserve to die. I don't care how old they are. How can any normal human being not feel completely wrong while someone burns alive.

It's on my 10 year plan (I'm 19) it doesn't really fit into my 5 year plan because I'm going into med school. I probably won't worry about it much until later, but it's definitely tucked back there that I'm no longer a child.
-
Ya, that lady's just uptight. Whenever I'm at the mall or a park I'll always get random little kids saying hi to me, and then running away to their parents. It's almost like a game to them. "Look at me, I talked to a stranger" +2 gutsy
