Social Networking

Oh boy where do I start? Text messaging, Facebook, Myspace have all greatly changed the way that I communicate with others in this world. When I was younger it was always calling someone from my housephone if i wanted or needed to talk. Then there was the middle school days of passing notes across the room to friends. When text messaging was introduced I had a sudden change of communication. My family had gotten it when it first came out. the funny thing then was that no one else had it so it was kinda pointless at the time. Now four years later it is one of my main sources of communicating with friends from wanting to hang out or even just to have a conversation. My last year of middle school I was introduced to Myspace. This was the new craze at the time and everyone was using it. It was like a routine website to be on right after school and at night before one goes to bed. It was a easy way to talk to multiple people all at the same time. It sort of revolutionized they way people made plans to get together. It also was another thing to do when you are bored while being at home. Soon enough I had heard about Facebook and made the transfer over to that site. This site was way more advanced than Myspace in the sense that you can chat instead of only having to make wall posts. I think it makes it easier to connected with friends after school because you still have that connection with them.

Brainstorming

There have been a few moments in my life that I have experienced that had made an impact on me. One item is reading the book Bud, Not Buddy. I read this book while I was in Elementry school. This book was an inspiration to me and affected me a lot. reading it at such a young age also made it more inspiring. It change my veiw of the world in the fact that I felt sympathy for the people who grow up without a father or who have to live on the street by themselves. This book was about a young African American boy growing up in the ghetto during the 60's. He grew up without his father because he had left one day and never came back. Then while his mother got sick he ran away on an adventure to find his father. At such a young age it was a struggle to him getting around all by himself. It was a very inspirational book becuase it helped describe what many people go through in life and how fortunate I am to have the things I do. Another moving item was the movie Pursuit of Happyness. This movie did wonders on me for the feeling of sadness and sympathy. This was one of 3 movies that I have ever cried in and the only movie that made me cry multiple times throughout the film.

ANGRY!!!

The time I would have to say I was most angry came my freshman year of highschool. It was ultimately a mix of emothions through anger and sadness. It can be considered one of those "I thought I was in love stories". My best summer ever had just gotten over and it was time to go back to school. We had a football pool party where me and my girlfriend were going to be at. We had been dating for about 8 or so months and I felt like I was in love. About two days before school started I got a call from here telling crying and not speaking. She eventully told me that she had hooked up with three other guys while we were dating. This moment just tore me apart. I didn't know how to handle the situation. I had so many thoughts running through mind that I started to cry. I wanted to beat people up, I wanted to yell at her but I just sat there and cried. What my actions came down to is that I calmly toldher that it was over between us and held all my anger in. I would go through stages of anger everytime I saw the people that I knew she had hooked up with but did nothing about it. It's just the type of person I am, I hold my emothions and and don't let them show. If i were to have to handle the situation again I wouldn't change a thing.

One Crazy Dream

One crazy dream I had involved me dying multiple times but in different ways. The main focus wasn't me dying but I was a hero that would never finish his quests alive. One of the missions I remember doing was the classic kill the dragon at the top of the mountin. I had went on the adventure and climbed the mountin with various obsticals in my way. I had to kill other creatures on my way up. When I finally had gotten to the top I was one on one with the dragon. After battling with the dragon I had been defeated when it had pushed me off of the cliff. Another adventure I had went on involved me being a pirate stealing gold from a cave. During this section of the dream I was not the only pirate looking for this gold. I was the first one to reach the gold and brought it back to my town. As soon as I step on the dock I was shot several times from the back and the other pirate walked off with my gold. That was where my dream had ended and I had woken up after that. There were a few more stories during that dream but I do not remember them.

Toilet Paper

When I was in 8th and 9th grade I had been going through my rebel state. Along side me was a good friend of mine named John Kilchenman. Being the age we were we got really heavy into t-ping. We were to the point where we got bored with it and started doing more and using different methods. In the span of that year we vandilized around 10 or so houses either for fun or to people we didn't like. We felt so cool at the time because we would regularly organize every step into this process and wouldn't just do it for the hell of it. Some of the other methods we used included silly puddy and play doe all over the driveways, party paper instead of toilet paper, and the use of window paint on glass. Our goal was to always out do what we had done the previous night so it tended to get worse and worse or in our case bigger and better. The first house we started out with only a 24 pact of toilet paper. When we got to our last house we had used everything mentioned earlier and around 115 rolls of toilet paper. It was great for us to see the trees become fully white and see the damage we had done.
