Kids these days, I say that like I am 80, have it easy.
Do you remember having to do research for a project from a book? You got these books from school, the library, or book stores. It was an amazing concept. Now, all they have to do is find information on a search engine. Hell, they can't even do that without help. This is ridiculous. I mean how hard is it to type www.google.com in your address bar, insert the words or key words that you are looking for into your search bar, and bam! you found your information. It is sickening.

actually now, teachers have gotten the hang of this technology. They require a set number of written sources, which is not hard at all.
I am 16 but I think a lot of teens complain WAY too much. Thinga are going to be tough and hard and time comsuming, just do them.

Well, that's good. If students were to start relying strictly on internet for research, it won't teach them anything. They will just go and read what sounds good, put it in their document, and bam they are done. So, at least teachers are requiring book work as well. Bravo them!

Rant on:
I opened a pop can today and watched for 5 minutes the foam coming out of it. I didn't shake it. It wasn't dropped. It wasn't tossed about. There was no reason for this to happen. Now, it's flat. This is bullshit. If I wanted a pop that foamed, I would have shaken the damn thing.
Rant off:

My rant
Start:
I just moved here. I am trying to start this group with other people in my religion. I was going to be the leader. There is no group like this here and since I just moved here, its hard for me to find the right people. ANyways, I took classes from the organization and now they want to visit and see a group set up by MAy! I haven't found people yet! The other lady was nice and told me to take my time, but now there are going to come to my house and they want to see a group and start the group. *sigh*
End:

Well, that's good. I am glad things are looking up. Just remember good things come to those who wait!! Or, my personal favorite from Wayne's World, if you build it, they will come ;)
TheAnnie wrote Thursday April 17 2008, 8:00 pm:
I like that
I haven't heard of "If you build it, it will come" that one is a good one.
AngelofMercy wrote Thursday April 17 2008, 11:09 pm:
Oh, you have to watch Wayne's World!! It is awesome. Of course it is a very unorthodox movie, but then again what can you expect from Mike Myers?
TheAnnie wrote Thursday April 17 2008, 11:21 pm:
