-__- im tired, and bored. nothing much to say, i guess. i see that tracy's put up her homework. lol. anywho, its been a while, and all i've done is homework and being stupid outside and helping lu with her grade 9 rep campaign. fun fun. at least it's the weekend, right? =) my plan for this weekend: saturday is that i'll do ALL my homework on that day, so i can do whatever on sunday. hooray. mkay not really. . school's just so boring. i'm not really gonna say pointless 'cause i understand why we need education, but it's just so dumb, because all we do in class is sit and listen to teachers drone on and on about stuff we won't remember 20 years from now. what's the point of knowing how to rant about your favourite food in french, or learn the american revolution when WE AREN'T AMERICAN. everytime i sit in class, i can feel the apathy surrounding me and i just stop listening after a certain point (especially in math and french.. ><) and like, how come we learn about all this junk, when there are bigger problems than learning exponents or writing made up stories that won't help anyone at all. learning who isaac newton was isn't gonna end world hunger. it isn't gonna stop wars from erupting. it's not gonna do much, unless you're planning to be some mega boring scientist/historian (no offence of you are). i know i probably sound like a hippie right now, but whatever. at least i'm aware, you know? but i hate knowing that we live here with everything and halfway around the world, there are people with nothing. we're only an ocean apart. and you know what i hate? i hate knowing that countries spend more money on making weapons and training armies than on feeding there own people. it's terrible.

Desciptive Paragraph woohoo :D
There i was, at the local park, just enjoying my life as a kid.bouncing from place to place, smelling the fresh cut grass, sprinting
from the swings to the huge spiraling slide, hearing all the other kids screaming, crawling as fast as i possibly could though a bright red plastic tunnel, that was the life. as i scrambled along, the air seemed to get thicker and heavier, my chest starts to grow
tight. it literally felt like drinking through a skinny straw plugged with a pearl from bubble tea. i stumbled like a gasping fish out of
water. everything around me started to get blurry and dark. all i wanted was a nice big breath of fresh clean air to fill my lungs, but
that didnt happen. instead i found myself lying there,my head spinning, my mouth begging for a breath. in a matter of minutes, i
found myself on the way to the hospital. I just had an asthma attack. Imagine being 6 years old, exited about everything, constantly
in motion, and full of life. I didn't even know what asthma was at the time...
i just thought the blog needed an update, and i have nothing right now, cept for my english homework, so copy paste, and its here ;)

The VMA
okay, im not being an overprotective fan of jonas brothers or anything,
but i think russell brand just went over, like WAY OVER with his jokes
russell brand seriously needs to lay off the sex jokes
"That is the safe sex message of all time. Use a condom or become a Republican!"
"Brand clearly angered some in attendance when he repeatedly joked about the Jonas Brothers, the sons of a pastor, all of whom wear purity rings as a symbol of their vow not to have premarital sex. At one point, Brand brandished one as if he had won it from a Jonas brother."
haha, he got pwned by fan girls, half way through the show, he apologizes like this
-i dont want to piss off any teenage fan girls, i actually want to do the exact opposite, just to make it clear, i dont mean piss ON teenage girls
and then
Perhaps summing up his perspective, he explained, "A bit of sex occasionally never hurt anybody."
and more stuff about lil wayne jacking off in the bathroom, theres probably a lot more i missed.
but that was just over, very dissapointed with the VMAs this year, but there was one highlight! jonas brothers performing, it was good :Dthe wall disapeared and then fans started running, i saw a few girls dangling outta windows, that was awesome too, i mean , AHEM! girls shouldnt do that.
yeah, i also liked pinks performance, and T.Is also very good.
but VMA was just really wrong in chosing the host this year, and letting him go LIVE.
anyways, go jordin sparks :D
"I just wanna say, it's not bad to wear a promise ring because not every guy and a girl wants to be a slut, OK?"

School
yes, i know about 99.9999999999999% of kids hate school, lu is NOT one of them
anyways, school is just a waste of time after 7th grade, starting 8th, i think we should start narrowing down our options, and here ill explain why
ok, lets say, i become an architect, would i need to know who won the war of 1812? no i dont, so yeah, heres a convo between me and my dad.
me - school is stupid
dad - do you wanna be a hobo and live under a bridge?
me - well, do you think i need what im learning now? *uses war of 1812 example* i bet you dont even know who won the war of 1812 <_< dad - yeah i do me - well then what is it, dad - china, they win everything me - nice nice, wow dad. dad - well the more you know the better, me - like i remember anything that i learnt last year, actually, i dont even remember who won the war of 1812 dad - then how do you know its not china me - well all the pointless info im learning now is just taking up brainspace <_< dad - dont worry, your brain has a lot of space me - then do you remember what you ate for lunch 3 days ago? dad - *leaves* HAHAH! I WIN! seee, lets say i want to be an architect i wouldnt be taking, socials, for one o_O which i find is the most pointless subject evarr. screw school.

uh, this time's about dying/death..?
ok, so yea. i've decided this topic would be about death/dying, just because i'm listening to "time of dying" by three days grace. (and its an excellent song :D) so yea. but you know, in my opinion, death isnt always necessarily a bad thing. if you've lived enough, and you're content with what youve done in your life, then i'd say its ok. now what i mean by "living enough" isnt all about the years you've lived; im talking about like, if youve done everything you wanted to do, or what kind of "tattoo" you leave on this earth. (i dont know if you understood that, just because my brain has weird thinking patterns O_o) and yea, if you're happy with what you've done on earth, regardless of the years youve been on it, then i think it wouldnt be so bad to die after that. so the moral of this is: DONT BE AFRAID TO LIVE. people are more afraid to live than to die, i think, 'cause they're afraid to be mocked and criticized. so do whatever. (ok not whatever, dont do illegal or bad things, 'cause then your "tattoo" on earth would be evil D:) and so yea.. personally, i'd perfer to die before i grow old. like, i think 40 years old is too old for me to live up to. i'd ratehr not see wrinkles or grow too old to be able to goof around without having other 40 year olds stare. so yea. no suicide, nothing stupid (like drunk driving, skydiving and the parachute fails, or because i developed diabetes/cancer so then id be confined to my bed -__-)
sooo yea

Finally Something To Write About
todays topic, physically beating your kids life outta them,
iono, im just against beating kids o_O its like violence,
if your friend came and broke something that was yours, would you beat them?
yet if your kid broke something, theyd get beat, unfair isnt it,
i think thats it, LOL
aww.. why'd tracy have to choose such a terrible and cruel topic to talk about today? D: so yea, we're here to talk about our pov on CHILD ABUSE. =(
uh yea, to put it plainly and in your face, i hate and am totally AGAINST child abuse. its a terrible thing to do. if you're angry, and need to lash out, DONT DO IT ON A CHILD (OR ANY OTHER SORT OF VIOLENCE), because no one likes a person who would hurt innocent people. if you really need to like, get rid of anger, do it in a "healthier way" like those shrinks on TV say to do. im not gonna tell you to pay a whole lotta cash to talk about yourself and like, open yourself up to a total stranger, but like yea, do something that'll vent out anger. you can exercise, i guess, if you're that kind of person who likes to and would work with. or yea, you CAN go and talk to total strangers in boring offices about your life and problems. but i have aother option. (yay) what i do to vent anger and just about every negative thing im feeling is with music. (no duh, most of my friends already know im music obsessed ;D) i start out with some angry-ish music, like three days grace and bullets for my valentine, etc and then i go onto ones that make me feel better/inspired to be good and stuff, like good charlotte and my chemical romance (DO NOT criticize them. they are NOT bad, like a lot of people say they are. mcr is [believe it or not] very inspirational to me). and then some happy, stuff-you-can-sing/dance-to like hedley and mindless self indulgence. then im all happy again. :D
but yea CHIDL ABUSE IS A TERRIBLE THING TO DO. DONT DO IT 'CAUSE IT MAKES NO ONE HAPPY (unless you're some horrible, sadistic person >=O) AND YOU CAN GO TO JAIL FOR IT.
-Daisan
Child abuse? Please. People who would harm their own children to vent out their anger are the lowest of the low. They are selfish, and do not care for anyone else other than themselves. Nothing good comes out of the abuse; violence only seems to make the people angrier, which means they will hurt the children even more, and then it goes around in one big pointless and harmful circle. Anyways, the rest is said by Daisan. If you're angry, vent it out some way that's actually beneficial. Except of course, if it were me, I'd listen to Beethoven first, then Brahm's Symphony number 1 (I like symphonies, shut up.), some Rachimanoff piano music, maybe some Chopin, then Tchaikovsky's Overture 1812 (typical firework music lol) or one of his Suites or something, and then end up with a happy little song by Mozart. Or a waltz by Strauss or something (LOL that rhymes). Anyways...How did I get so side-tracked? Child abuse to Strauss. Hm. Oh well. Anyways, VIOLENCE IS NOT THE ANSWER. It's a pointless, evil thing. Harming another human being (and a defenceless child at that) for your own benefit (or pleasure. But that's just evil.)....I'll leave it at that, before I start analysing Vivaldi's Four Seasons or something.

oh wow, you kids are messed in the head,

Request For Update :D
omg omg omg omg hi :D
lu's still MIA, or maybe she got KIA
meh whatever, thoughts for today.
school is evil, too hard LOL
theres nothing really to rant about, and im serious, i mean ill rant about school a lot, but yeah, i dont think its gonna change,
iono, nothing really, hums,
daisan you think of something, im always opening the topics
-Tracy P.
What are you talking about? I'm on break. >__> And I didn't get killed, or else I'd be undead now.
...or am I?
Anyways, school's not too hard if you like, try hard. A's are pretty easy to get if you keep up the good work. Except stuff you can't calculate right and wrong answers in. Like Art, Music, PE, etc. Those you're not sure of what you got until you get the marks. Your best bet is to try your hardest. LOL I sound like a cheesy school counselor.

Oh no D:
whoops... uh yea havent posted anything for a while 'cept tracy. O_o well today the three of us went to the mall and saw that the whole mall was slowly being taken over by hannah montana/miley cyrus and the jonas brothers O: and like, yea, i dont like them. i dont like any of the disney stars. IN MY OPINION, they cant sing that well; just a bunch of pretty faces. (DONT BE HATING ON THIS COMMENT; ITS ONLY MY OPINION D:) and yeaa O_o i mean like, everyone knows miley cyrus as hannah montana and vice versa, but no one actually knows/cares about who her guitar players are, or drummer is and so on. it doesnt seem fair that only she gets all the fame and glory while the instruments are hiding in the back playing for her. same with the jonas brothers. you only know that the brothers are the singers and i think they play guitar too, but who knows who the bass and drummer is? you wouldnt know unless you watch them live, or buy their CD. AND theres one thing that bugs me: if you listen to jonas brothers' "SOS" song, the guitar or whatever is EXACTLY THE SAME as fall out boy's "The Take Over The Break's Over". just listen to it. do it now. >=( i dont know if its a complete coincidence, or if the jonas brothers copied fall out boy, but i DO know that it sounds too similar for me to ignore. (by the way, if your wondering "well what if fall out boy copied the jonas brothers?!" that isnt possible, because fall out boy recorded "The Take Over The Break's Over" earlier than the jonas brothers' "SOS". yeaa.. at least, im pretty sure anyways. if this topic is bugging you too much, do your own research.
anyways yeaaaa. my summer's been ok so far. nothing too soul-destroying or anything like that. O_o make the most out of your last 2 weeks of summer break O:
-Daisan Z.
LIES JONAS BROTHERS PWN ALL!
-Tracy P.
OH NO. They're taking over the world, cheesy smiles and all! I see their evil plan now... starting with innocent children's violently pink school supplies and lunch boxes D; And then moving on to CDs, wigs, and random other things. And they get paid to do that.
Now, the classical composers of old...they need more publicity. And I don't see Brahms, Mozart, or Rachimanoff's face plastered everywhere in the mall.
And Tracy: JONAS BROTHERS BURNS MY EYES AND EARS.

Guys, I need your help
HAIIIII-YAH! im back (H) this time in ninja form :D KAPOWW! AIIYAHH! i hurt my hands,
bleh, maybe i should go to the subject now.
well the subject is about donating, blood, and id like, THREEPOVs on this please. if you guys still ignore me, i will less than slash three you foreevverrr!
anyways, ok, people right now need blood right? look at the DBSK fangirls, how many do you think will donate blood? but what if JaeJoong or whatever, (wait, is there even a guy named JaeJoong in DBSK? whatever, maybe i shouldve went with raymond lam or something) needed blood, imagine how many of those fangirls would go donate blood?
or maybe he didnt even need blood, and had this publicity thing where he donates blood, ill bet a few fangirls would go along with him. so yes, theres my rant,
DAISAN AND LU GET HERE NOW.
-Tracy P.
Ha, I wrote your name in for you. Anyways, what the bloody hell is 'less than slash'? (British curses sound cool. Bloody hell. Blast. Heavens! xD )
And yes, there is a guy named JaeJoong in DBSK. -Beril influences- ANYWAYS. Blood is okay, though there's still the hazard of disease and uncleaniness with blood donation. But if you're asking me to do an organ transplant or bone marrow transplant or something with a complete stranger, I wouldn't do it. Yes, I care, but I don't care /that/ much. I wouldn't leave someone to die if I could help it, but that's the point: If I could help it. Safety first, however. I may risk my life with some transplant with family, but not with a complete stranger. (And I find it stupid how fangirls would do that to the guys that they would not care about otherwise if they were not famous.)

Swearing and Slangs
OKAYS so now it's time for another blog entry :) this one's about curse words and slangs. have fun with this one guys xD
so like, i never swear intentionally. like, i never say "f*ck off" or "YOU SON OF A B*TCH", you know? i find swear words useless, 'cause they're simple innocent words someone decided to use to hurt someone else's feelings. 'cause like seriously, when you think about it, most of the swear words have the most harmless meanings.
fuck: sex
bitch: female dog
fag: to tire by labor (meaning you get tired from working)
faggot: bundle of sticks
AND SO ON. it's so pointless. when someone tells you "Hey you faggot!", it literally means "Hey you bundle of sticks!". SOO retarded >_>. and like, i know the person uses the words to hurt someone else, but like, it's so dumb 'cause like, people just take innocent words and make them bad. you can make like, bowl a bad word. like, "You're such a BOWL" jesus christ ><. people these days just make words change their meanings JUST so they can have more "swear words" in their vocabulary. O_o
oh and like, when people say "HOLY SHIT" or "HOLY CRAP". i don't get that, 'cause like, shit and crap means the same thing: poo. since when is poo holy? like, crosses and etc are holy (to some people), i understand that. but POO? when did poo become holy? O_____o but if you want to continue saying female dog or a bundle of sticks, i don't really care. your choice.
- Daisan Z.
I detest swearing. I see no point. But if you want to exclaim in surprise/agony/fury/happiness/etc. why would you use something so offencive (sp?) and harsh? Why not say 'oh my word!' like the good people? D; And I also detest people who swears every two words into their sentence. Do they have no other adjectives to use to describe things? They're just making themselves sound stupid, the exact opposite of their apparent reason for doing so: seeming cool. Anyways, swearing is stupid. The end. That is all.

Pet Peeves Related To Shopping
ooookays :) today we're gonna talk/complain about our pet peeves related to shopping...lol
one thing that bugs me like, THE MOST, is when shops always seem to have sales when i'm outta money. -__- that SUCKS. lol. ok, now to be serious. i absolutely HATE IT when salespeople try to talk you into buying something you don't want. it's like, they take advantage that we're young and stuff, and think that since we're young, that we'd be careless with our money. plus, they often automatically assume we'd either blow all our money on one thing or we'd go and mess around in the store. ok, so maybe that does happen, but like, not EVERYONE does it right? but i HATE it when they all watch and follow you around the store, and ask "Can i help you with anything?" or "Are you finding what you're looking for?" it gets annoying after a while. >_> it makes me feel nervous too, with them watching me all the time and whatnot. and you know what else that bugs me? the bowls or cups or whatevers at the food court. like, beneath the cup (or whatevers), there's always this giant empty space. i mean like, sure it's good for when your food is hot and the empty space means you don't have to directly come in contact with the bottom of the cup, but SERIOUSLY, the spaces are HUGE. like, you pay a fricken $3-something for a small bowl of soup, and like, a quarter of the bowl is empty because of that empty space at the bottom.
ok, now i'm done complaining about the mall. i think tracy has lots though. lol ;)
-Daisan Z.
wahahah! my turn, wait, LEMME STOP AND TALK TO THIS RANDOM ASIAN RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AISLE FOR 15 MINS SO NO ONE CAN GET THROUGH TO THEIR FRIED RICE! okay anyways, that right there is one of my pet peeves, and! asians trying to bargain, and yeahh, hmm, what about carts? the people that leave them in the middle of the parking lot or the middle of the aisle, or those little baskets that people leave laying in the middle of no where , yenno once i tripped on one of them, and accidentally stepped on some of the stuff, this lady comes running at me screaming why the BEEP did you step on my vegetables?!?!?!
so yeahhhs, and the people running everywhere for a sale omg o_O
welps, thats all that really matters to me right now, peace.
-Tracy P.
YO DIGGIDY DAWGGG! EDIT! i forgot something, the people that insist going on the escalator as a pair so people cant get through if theyre in a rush o_O, like, you stand on the right, you walk on the left, simple as that why you gotta stand next to eachother?
Look! I'm posting now, 3 months later! YAY. Anyways, I detest how in those empty-ish stores, the salespeople go up to you and rain facts on you. If you take something out to LOOK at it, they assume you want to buy it, and then go on and on about how it's exactly like this fasion magasine, and how it's the latest design from like, Korea or something. And you feel bad saying you don't like it and leave the store empty handed, even though you didn't really like that shirt anyways.
Another thing: Overpriced stores. Good Lord, the asian stores. You'd think everything's cheap because it's cheap if you buy it in Asia, but /no/. They want to earn money, so they price it 200 times the price they bought it at. No, seriously. I saw a tanktop for sale and it was $150 CANADIAN even though I doubt it would be worth 5 dollars if you buy it in China. Ripoff stores -___-
Oh, and I dislike ('cause hate is a strong word) it when there's a sale on the item you bought just days before. Makes you feel ripped off. D;< Or if the thing you wanted is out of stock because you were waiting it to go on sale but it never did, and instead it sold out. Oh yes, and long, huge gigantic lineups. I mean seriously, when you want to buy one item and have to stand in line for 40 minutes for it...can't they have an 'one to two items' lineup especially for that?
And I have lots more, but then you'd be crazy bored by the time I say them all. OKKAYY. Time to tackle the next post.

Racism
OKAYS! so hi again :D muhaha this time i first in your face daisan! actually this part has nothing to do with the topic, im just bored, so anyways, todays topic is racism, wooohooo, if somehow i dissed your race, i didnt mean to, so im sorry, but you dont need to come to be saying SCREW YOU ASIANS! YOU EAT RICE + HAVE SMALL EYES! and so on, about the asian things like, you always go for free stuffs, you dont wear shoes inside, you download EVERYTHING, and random stuffs like that, actually im just dissing myself along with many other asians right now i think o_O so yeaps,
so basically, racism is making fun of other races right? you would consider "OMG YOU HAVE BLACK SKIN!" racist, but wouldnt consider "OMG YOU HAVE A BLACK CAR" as racist would you? exactly i dont think so, its just different colours of skin on the outside, but were all people on the inside, like M&Ms and smarties, they can be red blue green purple yellow and so on, but inside, theyre all milk chocolate, and they taste all the same too, and how if you take out the cauc part of caucasian youve got asian :D (to tell you the truth, thats how i learnt how to spell it o_O)
just my 2cents,
-Tracy P.
racism [rac-ism] noun. : the hatred of one person by another -- or the belief that another person is less than human -- because of skin color, language, customs, place of birth or any factor that supposedly reveals the basic nature of that person
sounds horrible, huh? like, having someone hate you because of the colour of your skin, where you were born and so on. that's so fricken retarded, it's not even funny. like, people have whole gardens of multicoloured flowers, right? then why do some people find different coloured people so terrible? so intolerable? D: that is just SO WRONG.. people can't really change where they were born, or what culture they were born into. it's just not preventable. besides, it wouldn't be pleasant if suddenly someone wants to kill you because of how you fricken look. if you think about it, those with paler skin can just go outside this summer, and get a tan. that person wouldn't be pale anymore, huh? but would a racist person go and hate that former-pale person? I THINK NOT >=O and you know that slightly cheesy saying "Everyone is the same on the inside."? yea.. it's true. we all have feelings that can be easily hurt. we all have stomachs and other internal stuff that i'd rather not name 'cause i'm not the biggest fan of science. >_> anyyyywayyys, get what i mean now? don't be racist, no jokes there. people can be anything in the world, but some choose to be haters. that's just sad.
-Daisan Z.
Okay, this one won't be as long as the religions post- PROMISE. Cross my heart and hope to die, poke a needle in my eye. Err, no need to do any of those things though. I still want to live and prosper. With eyes that are not poked-through.
Now, you'd think that humans can get along with their own species. You'd think that we're smart enough not to fight with ourselves. The human race is indeed a strange thing. Every person is unique, everyone with different faces. Would you say a person is inhuman if they had a different nose, or eyebrow, or mouth as you? Would you hate someone born in a different hospital? I should hope not. Then why, pray tell, would you do so to someone who was born in another country, or someone whose skin is a different colour than your own? It's just like saying someone is mean and cruel because they have a different hair colour. Frankly, it doesn't make sense. Besides, one man's actions do not determine the actions of people who share the same traits as him. Every race, every place, every culture has good and bad people alike. Why should your own be any different? Think of it this way: Would YOU like it if people hated you because of something you did not choose to be, something you had no choice in?
I think I'm ranting. Anyways, to sum it all up, I think racism is stupid. Come on, we're all humans! Racism seems one step away from canniballism.
That is all. See? It was short. So don't kill me and poke a needle in my eye.

Religion
ok so tracy and lu (mostly tracy) said that our first topic to talk about is RELIGION. so if you're a really religious person, i may suggest that you stop reading like, now...not that i'm gonna make fun of any religion whatsoever, but you know, just in case you didn't read my WARNING from the first post......yeaa... remember, this is from our young and foolish minds :)
mkaaay. religion... i think it's kinda strange (NO OFFENCE) and useless? 'cause like, if you pray, how do you know you're really "talking" to someone "above" you? like, sure it's good because praying makes you THINK about the good stuff you should be doing, but basically, you're also saying/praying (however you wanna say it) OUT LOUD. yea ok, so it "reminds" you to do good for the world and etc, but still... you might as well as write it on your hand or something, since its the same thing except without a pen. but like, still... people died FIGHTING about religion in the past (and i think they still do it now maybe? i don't know), like in the crusades we learned about in social studies. like, SERIOUSLY, fighting for your god? that's just slighty useless if you ask me... if God is so wonderful, how come He didn't help fight, since the wars were all about Him and like, you know, other religious stuff... but like, why have the religious wars altogether? if the religion and stuff say to be good and not bring harm and whatnot to other people, WHY THE HECK DID WARS TAKE PLACE? like, HOLY FRIGGIN CUCUMBERS (not saying holy god or anything, 'cause lu had always told me not to use the lord's name in vain or something like that..) so yea, even if they're religious and listen to whatever the priests and stuff told them, why the heck would they just about go against what the god says and kill other people? i don't get that.. and like, WHAT THE HECK?! to easter, since like, that's the day jesus came back to life or something. first of all, what to little chocolate bunnies and eggs have to do with jesus? and second, HOW THE HECK DID HE COME BACK TO LIFE? is he like, the ONLY person...god...whatever.. to be able to do that? if he died for our sins, how come he won't tell us how to i don't know... revive ourselves?i mean like, it'd be so much better. like, what if there WAS a hell, and you hated being there, then you'd wake up from the dead or whatever and do the right/good stuff to make up for your sins and whatnot.. see? a win-win situation. jesus finds out he didn't die for us for nothing, and we get to be alive for a second time. :) and yea.. it's not like, i'm against religion. i'm not a religious person..(heck, i don't even know what my mom does when she sets out stuff for chinese new year, and i've seen her do that stuff for a fricken 14 years..). i'm all good with anyone being religious. i kinda think there's no point in it except to scare small children with stories about people doing bad things and teaching them not to do the same mistakes, but otherwise, yeaaa... no crucifixes or anything for me :D
yea...i think i sound kinda ignorant.. BUT you didn't have to read the whole thing ;) but yea... i'm sorry if any tears, cries of anguish, or gasps of disbelief were dragged out of your religious souls because of how i think.. -Daisan Z.
WELLS! HI IM BACK! haha, it seems we have a lot to say on this topic, but i basically have one, pretty short one, i mean im not against people going to church or a temple or whatever, they can do what they want, but me, i find it pointless to waste like what, 2-3hours of your day going to those things, why go there? i asked some people that and they said to pray, well first of all you can do the same thing at home o_O but why pray? its like "pray to be a good person" uhh, thats kinda my own choice, i can pray to be a good person yet still be evil, or not pray at all and still be a good person, pwned, mine is so short,
-Tracy P.
So. Religion. I don't have much to say about this (yeah, right) as there has been much controversy regarding the topic. Before, in the time without much science, people relied on gods for help, and created some myths to explain natural phenomenons (I sound like my English teacher o__O). We're talking ancient Egypt, ancient Greek and Roman times here. You know, Poseidon, Hades, Zeus and those people? The gods of their time. They were the cause for the weather, the animals, and the humans themselves. (Oh yeah, and the lesser gods too. Dionysus, Persephone, etc.) .They were the center point of the people's lives back then. The gods were basically the reason for everything, and they were also that last hope in the time of despair. People saying that Zeus was only angry when an billion volt atmospheric discharge of electricity approaching 30,000°C comes charging down at you (if you must know, that means lightning). Regardless of who is angry, you're still fried. Still, the people's curiosity is too much, and there is an insufficient amount of technology to figure it out. Simple-minded? Perhaps. But better than sitting like ducks and straining your brains trying to find out why water was falling from the sky.
That was 2000 years ago. This is now.
Certainly, we have plenty of technology today. And yes, we know that the planets don't revolve around the Earth (that was after the Church put Galileo Galilei under house arrest) and that God did not create the universe in seven days (after the Big Bang Theory. Though I kind of find that as strange as the seven-day theory. Come on, the universe goes BOOM and then theres a lot of space o__O). Oh yes, and that humans were not really /made/ (or rather, handcrafted) by God but really evolved from apes (and THAT was after Darwin was accepted into the scientific community). However, the people insist on believing the storys as true, brushing off the science and merely stating that those specific parts of Christian religion are symbolic.
Don't get me wrong. I don't have anything against Christians (except maybe the ones that are going to kill me by the time they finish reading this). It's just that the Christian religion is the one I know best, having read the Genesis of the Bible in a hotel room when I was /dying/ for something to read (hey, it was pretty interesting, and kind of fun to read too). And it was a big part of my Socials Studies curriculum, and the Church had a big part in European history.
Many people died because of religion though. That's a fact. The persecution of Christians under the Romans, the Crusades, the 'Hitler' incident, the Children's Crusade, those poor First Nations who were forced out of their religions (and died afterwards from smallpox), etcetera, etcetera. However, it is the religions that give us our international morales. We know stealing, killing, whacking people with big hammers, yelling and cursing, etc. are bad. How do we know it, and what stops us from doing those things? Laws. And what were the laws adapted from? Those ancient laws 2000 years ago. And what, pray tell, were those laws based upon? Religion. Religion also gives us hope for a life after death, so if you've been good in this life, you will move on to the life after. Yippee, a reason to live AND be good in your community. A win-win situation! Religion also gives us cautionary tales in the myths, telling you to respect your elders, don't jump off a cliff, don't disrespect people, and what-not. They're kind of like those stories we tell children: 'Don't stay out too late, or the bogey-man will eat you!' Crude, but it's similar. 'Don't be bad, or you'll end up in hell!' That sort of thing.
It also gives us someone to look up to: the god(s). We try to worship Him/them, try to please Him/them. And if you're the non-religious type, let me tell you, a lot of great things have come from trying to please the god(s). Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper, for example, and the many Greek and Roman temples and statues. Miracles may not happen as you believe, but small things: winning the lottery may be put to fate, or getting an A on your next test. Though I personally believe that you should not sit back and let life play out, because that is plain boring and does not give you the best of life. Try and not put everything on to religion like the ancient Egyptians, who live to die, and try your best to make the best out of life (I know it sounds corny, but yeah). Try your hardest, and though the waters won't part to allow you to walk to the Holy Land, you can use your hard-earned money and buy a plane ticket there. Next thing you know, you have a promotion! Miracles come in many forms.
-looks up- Did I type all that? Haha, and I said I didn't have much to say. The whole point of religion, however, is positive, but not when people go to absurd lengths to achieve immortality. Have some common sense, and don't let your religion blind you until you don't know bad from harmless. I have nothing what-so-ever against religion. It's a great thing, don't get me wrong. Hey, I sometimes pray to God asking for help (it might work, you never know!). But I still believe in choosing my own future and the fact that the future is a thing of many possibilities. However, do not let the above post (article? Essay?) dissuade you from your religion. Just like, don't go around killing people because their religion is not the same as your's.
So yeah, that's my over-stretched opinion on religion. Lecture me about how sinful I am speaking mind to the world if my opinion seriously offends. I'm truely, truely sorry if this hurt any of your feelings out there in cyberspace. I know this is a touchy subject, so I was trying to dissuade Tracy from picking this subject...
And a note to Daisan: I did NOT pick this subject.

'cause like, if you pray, how do you know you're really "talking" to someone "above" you? like, sure it's good because praying makes you THINK about the good stuff you should be doing, but basically, you're also saying/praying (however you wanna say it) OUT LOUD. yea ok, so it "reminds" you to do good for the world and etc, but still... you might as well as write it on your hand or something, since its the same thing except without a pen. but like, still... people died FIGHTING about religion in the past (and i think they still do it now maybe? i don't know), like in the crusades we learned about in social studies. like, SERIOUSLY, fighting for your god? that's just slighty useless if you ask me... if God is so wonderful, how come He didn't help fight, since the wars were all about Him and like, you know, other religious stuff... but like, why have the religious wars altogether? if the religion and stuff say to be good and not bring harm and whatnot to other people, WHY THE HECK DID WARS TAKE PLACE? like, HOLY FRIGGIN CUCUMBERS (not saying holy god or anything, 'cause lu had always told me not to use the lord's name in vain or something like that..) so yea, even if they're religious and listen to whatever the priests and stuff told them, why the heck would they just about go against what the god says and kill other people? i don't get that.. and like, WHAT THE HECK?! to easter, since like, that's the day jesus came back to life or something. first of all, what to little chocolate bunnies and eggs have to do with jesus? and second, HOW THE HECK DID HE COME BACK TO LIFE? is he like, the ONLY person...god...whatever.. to be able to do that? if he died for our sins, how come he won't tell us how to i don't know... revive ourselves?i mean like, it'd be so much better. like, what if there WAS a hell, and you hated being there, then you'd wake up from the dead or whatever and do the right/good stuff to make up for your sins and whatnot.. see? a win-win situation. jesus finds out he didn't die for us for nothing, and we get to be alive for a second time. :) and yea.. it's not like, i'm against religion. i'm not a religious person..(heck, i don't even know what my mom does when she sets out stuff for chinese new year, and i've seen her do that stuff for a fricken 14 years..). i'm all good with anyone being religious. i kinda think there's no point in it except to scare small children with stories about people doing bad things and teaching them not to do the same mistakes, but otherwise, yeaaa... no crucifixes or anything for me :D
yea...i think i sound kinda ignorant.. BUT you didn't have to read the whole thing ;) but yea... i'm sorry if any tears, cries of anguish, or gasps of disbelief were dragged out of your religious souls because of how i think.. -Daisan Z.
WELLS! HI IM BACK! haha, it seems we have a lot to say on this topic, but i basically have one, pretty short one, i mean im not against people going to church or a temple or whatever, they can do what they want, but me, i find it pointless to waste like what, 2-3hours of your day going to those things, why go there? i asked some people that and they said to pray, well first of all you can do the same thing at home o_O but why pray? its like "pray to be a good person" uhh, thats kinda my own choice, i can pray to be a good person yet still be evil, or not pray at all and still be a good person, pwned, mine is so short,

So. Religion. I don't have much to say about this (yeah, right) as there has been much controversy regarding the topic. Before, in the time without much science, people relied on gods for help, and created some myths to explain natural phenomenons (I sound like my English teacher o__O). We're talking ancient Egypt, ancient Greek and Roman times here. You know, Poseidon, Hades, Zeus and those people? The gods of their time. They were the cause for the weather, the animals, and the humans themselves. (Oh yeah, and the lesser gods too. Dionysus, Persephone, etc.) .They were the center point of the people's lives back then. The gods were basically the reason for everything, and they were also that last hope in the time of despair. People saying that Zeus was only angry when an billion volt atmospheric discharge of electricity approaching 30,000°C comes charging down at you (if you must know, that means lightning). Regardless of who is angry, you're still fried. Still, the people's curiosity is too much, and there is an insufficient amount of technology to figure it out. Simple-minded? Perhaps. But better than sitting like ducks and straining your brains trying to find out why water was falling from the sky.
That was 2000 years ago. This is now.
Certainly, we have plenty of technology today. And yes, we know that the planets don't revolve around the Earth (that was after the Church put Galileo Galilei under house arrest) and that God did not create the universe in seven days (after the Big Bang Theory. Though I kind of find that as strange as the seven-day theory. Come on, the universe goes BOOM and then theres a lot of space o__O). Oh yes, and that humans were not really /made/ (or rather, handcrafted) by God but really evolved from apes (and THAT was after Darwin was accepted into the scientific community). However, the people insist on believing the storys as true, brushing off the science and merely stating that those specific parts of Christian religion are symbolic.
Don't get me wrong. I don't have anything against Christians (except maybe the ones that are going to kill me by the time they finish reading this). It's just that the Christian religion is the one I know best, having read the Genesis of the Bible in a hotel room when I was /dying/ for something to read (hey, it was pretty interesting, and kind of fun to read too). And it was a big part of my Socials Studies curriculum, and the Church had a big part in European history.
Many people died because of religion though. That's a fact. The persecution of Christians under the Romans, the Crusades, the 'Hitler' incident, the Children's Crusade, those poor First Nations who were forced out of their religions (and died afterwards from smallpox), etcetera, etcetera. However, it is the religions that give us our international morales. We know stealing, killing, whacking people with big hammers, yelling and cursing, etc. are bad. How do we know it, and what stops us from doing those things? Laws. And what were the laws adapted from? Those ancient laws 2000 years ago. And what, pray tell, were those laws based upon? Religion. Religion also gives us hope for a life after death, so if you've been good in this life, you will move on to the life after. Yippee, a reason to live AND be good in your community. A win-win situation! Religion also gives us cautionary tales in the myths, telling you to respect your elders, don't jump off a cliff, don't disrespect people, and what-not. They're kind of like those stories we tell children: 'Don't stay out too late, or the bogey-man will eat you!' Crude, but it's similar. 'Don't be bad, or you'll end up in hell!' That sort of thing.
It also gives us someone to look up to: the god(s). We try to worship Him/them, try to please Him/them. And if you're the non-religious type, let me tell you, a lot of great things have come from trying to please the god(s). Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper, for example, and the many Greek and Roman temples and statues. Miracles may not happen as you believe, but small things: winning the lottery may be put to fate, or getting an A on your next test. Though I personally believe that you should not sit back and let life play out, because that is plain boring and does not give you the best of life. Try and not put everything on to religion like the ancient Egyptians, who live to die, and try your best to make the best out of life (I know it sounds corny, but yeah). Try your hardest, and though the waters won't part to allow you to walk to the Holy Land, you can use your hard-earned money and buy a plane ticket there. Next thing you know, you have a promotion! Miracles come in many forms.
-looks up- Did I type all that? Haha, and I said I didn't have much to say. The whole point of religion, however, is positive, but not when people go to absurd lengths to achieve immortality. Have some common sense, and don't let your religion blind you until you don't know bad from harmless. I have nothing what-so-ever against religion. It's a great thing, don't get me wrong. Hey, I sometimes pray to God asking for help (it might work, you never know!). But I still believe in choosing my own future and the fact that the future is a thing of many possibilities. However, do not let the above post (article? Essay?) dissuade you from your religion. Just like, don't go around killing people because their religion is not the same as your's.
So yeah, that's my over-stretched opinion on religion. Lecture me about how sinful I am speaking mind to the world if my opinion seriously offends. I'm truely, truely sorry if this hurt any of your feelings out there in cyberspace. I know this is a touchy subject, so I was trying to dissuade Tracy from picking this subject...
And a note to Daisan: I did NOT pick this subject.

Just an Idea of What You're Gonna Read
ALL RIGHTS :D ok so like, me and 2 friends are making this blog for our own foolish and harmless fun. if we offend you in ANY way, WE SO DON'T MEAN IT D: 'cause like, we have our own weird ways of thinking and whatnot, so we decided to have the three of us discuss what we think of one topic... BUT if you are irritated about anything we say in our blog, we'd prefer if you didn't bug us about it. if you don't like what we're saying, i'm sorry, but you don't have to stay and finish reading. get out. lol no i'm kidding ;) but yeaa, we warned you. don't sue us. i wasn't kidding that time. -Daisan Z.
Well, Hi there :D im the more normal one, atleast i think i'm normal, ill let you figure that out for your self, anyways, basically what that person said up there ^^ is what imma say too, but then i decided, why read the same thing twice? just another thing, if you have a decent comment, go ahead a post it. if you have your own point of view on things like this, go ahead and make your own blog :D so yeaps, i think thats all you need to know.

Once upon a time there were three children gifted with the art of philosophy...
Who am I kidding? o__O
We're not really children (in our minds), nor is this 'once upon a time' and we are definately not gifted with the art of philosophy. Loud, impulsive and spontaneous, maybe, but gifted?
Nah, we were just bored. And then everything pretty much follows from there, where Daisan left off. And Tracy pretty much said what I wanted to say. So go figure. They left me with nothing at all to say...
Or maybe just this:If we offend, put it in your minds that it is not our purpose.
And something less poetic:
Heck, why keep on reading if you don't want to?
By now, you may have figured what type of person I am. I'm rather long-winded and I go into deep 'scientific' explainations for things (according to Daisan and Tracy, but I really just think it's common sense) and I relate to famous writers and composers and what-not a lot. Yeah. I'm weird in a special way (: Or to put it simply, people call me a nerd. o__O
I could go ranting for hours. Haha. If you don't want to read this, go read some article about some celebrity dumping some other celebrity or something.
Yeah. Don't sue me.
