The Metric System
A kilometer to me is something shorter slightly shorter than a mile. It at least gives me some perspective. :D

Today...
Noooooooo! What? Seriously, it was better than the anime. Cause it wasn't as drawn out, though at 80 minutes, its too short. I.E. 2 weeks to Eclipse, 1 week, 2 days, 1 night. (Plus I've never read the manga, however I've been told Roshii is a bit of a pervert in it, he's a bit of a pervert in the film) Roshii was a "bit" of a pervert in the anime. It's what made Roshii Roshii! There wasn't any of that CHAAAAAAARGIIIIIING!!! crap in it was there?

The Metric System
Metic really isn't hard to use. it's in increments of 10 so I really don't see the problem. It's not like anybody in America ever memorized how long 12 inches is.

What do you think will happen to us?
We still have the bubonic plague in a little vial. If that vial were to "accidentally" break in the middle of Beijing I think we could solve our population problem really fast...

Gratz dude. I've also made an acedemic milestone. Not only did I find out I'm ranked 55th in my class of ~1000 but I've also been nominated for The National Society of High School Scholars. (I've never heard of these guys for some reason...) But anyways I'm happy. I also have 4 tests on Thursday. That's all of my classes! :wall:

wierd and wacky facts
Some perfume ingredients by themselves are really foul smelling. Saying "Can I borrow" will more make people more likely to give you their item rather than "Can I have"

Call of Duty: World at War
Treyarch and Infinity Ward switch off every year for the making of the CoD series. MW was really good because Infinity Ward had an extra year to work on it. CoD3 was horrible because Treyarch didn't get a full year to make it because IW wasn't on the ball.

Iowa, and now Vermont, Pass Same-Sex Marriage Laws
How do they now? Lure people into giving money by playing on their guilt. Stop trying to demonize the church, their intentions are good. No. Helping people and charity yes, but taking advantage of peoples' fears, indoctrinating children with ridiculous stories, trying to force their scripture into law, condemning condom use and refusing to pay taxes at the same time? Not so good. 1. They don't pay taxes because atm they're government funded. 2. As for law, you got me on that one. 3. They don't take advantage of fears, at least not mine. In the years I've attended my church I've never heard a word from them about hell. 4. The church didnt condem condom use, the Pope did. 5. What rediculous stories? There are two kinds of things in the Bible, historical fact, and stories made to teach lessons. Addressing point 3: How do you feel about rotting in the ground in complete darkness never knowing anything ever again? How do you feel about being etarnally damned? Addressing point 5: Noah's Ark is a big one.

Iowa, and now Vermont, Pass Same-Sex Marriage Laws
It has nothing to do with religion, it just isn't natural. The bilological purpose of sex is reproduction, the fact that it feels good is just an incentive. homosexuality is natural though, it can happen by a gene, is naturally occurring in humans, and can be caused by traumas experienced in someone's life. Reproducing feels good to you, but to homosexuals, it can be just as weird as you think it is for them to like it in a different sense. but do you realize the prostate is the male equivalent to the [bleep]oris, and it feels better for men when they have anal sex? and with lesbianism, woman can do pretty much the same men can do to them. The fact is gay sex might seem weird to you, but to them it's normal, and your normal forms of intercourse, could be considered weird to them. Also, if you look at the fetishes people have, It is deemed to be normal by society(to an extent of what the [specialInterest] itself is, but fetishes in general are accepted), it's the same thing with homosexuality, but most people don't think of it in the same way. I know I screwed something I said in there up, but im not sure what. There is no "homosexual gene." If there were, it would constitute a genetic mutation; which is a disease, and one could infer that homosexuality is a disease. As it is, there are fools do try to make that chimeric argument. The entire human species is a genetic mutation. Anything that has a cell is a genetic mutation.

[hide=Social]1. pertaining to, devoted to, or characterized by friendly companionship or relations: a social club. 2. seeking or enjoying the companionship of others; friendly; sociable; gregarious. 3. of, pertaining to, connected with, or suited to polite or fashionable society: a social event. 4. living or disposed to live in companionship with others or in a community, rather than in isolation: People are social beings. 5. of or pertaining to human society, esp. as a body divided into classes according to status: social rank. 6. involved in many social activities: We're so busy working, we have to be a little less social now. 7. of or pertaining to the life, welfare, and relations of human beings in a community: social problems. 8. noting or pertaining to activities designed to remedy or alleviate certain unfavorable conditions of life in a community, esp. among the poor. 9. pertaining to or advocating socialism. 10. Zoology. living habitually together in communities, as bees or ants. Compare solitary (def. 8). 11. Botany. growing in patches or clumps. 12. Rare. occurring or taking place between allies or confederates.[/hide] Yeah, none of those definitions state that human interactions must be physical. By being on TIF he is being social. By being on a soccer team he is being social. By playing games online with his friends instead of going to the movies he is still being social Classify 'social' by the dictionary term if you wish, but as soon as a person hits college if all there social interaction amounts to sports clubs and internet interaction, they'll be pretty much socially dead compared to those who went out with friends on the weekend. I've seen it happen many times when you compare those who went out and those who stayed in. A person isn't a hermit unless they choose to be. Going out with friends every other weekend would only help them be more social to people with personalites like his friends. Atleast by playing online he's talking to hundreds of people with multiple personalities from anywhere in the world.

North Korea launches a rocket
China building up their military scares me, remember when Germany built up their military? :ohnoes: are you saying they got hitlers dna, cloned him, and he is now controlling china?! thats a pretty wild thing to be thinking. I'm just saying that building up an army never leads to anything good. Countries built up armies before WWI, Germany and Japan built up armies before WWII. ... You know what's be cool? If we built up an army!

The only thing I can think of is to double check your answers and when you've done that triple check to make sure everything is right. Also if you know you need to do homework ask whichever parent your staying with to take your 360 into their room until you're finished so you don't get tempted (Assuming this is a really serious addiction)
