Quite frankly I've had enough of uniforms. "Take the sweater off.", "Button it up." Seriously? If it's 90 degrees in the classroom and your poor school can't afford air conditioning, don't tell us to put our uniforms on. If it's 60 degrees, and we are freezing, don't tell us to take the sweaters off.

I've noticed that all the "specialized" schools in NYC don't have uniforms, while some normal schools do. Maybe it's a conspiracy, but I see it as a stereotype. We are stupid, so we must wear uniforms. Is that right? We are not smart enough to wear our own clothes? We must follow your stupid school rules just so the school rating goes up?

"Health first?" Not. If looking organized to no one but yourselves is more important than a student's health, you might as well change it to, "We are adults. You are children." Then again, the school DOES contain some 18+ students, so that is out of the picture.

Today in "muster" -- a time at the beginning of school when we all come together --  this visitor came to our school and began to blabber about black power and segregation, and about how much suffering African American have had to endure. I  feel pity for what African American have gone through, but today some have learned nothing about their ancestors heinous experiences and have decide to become attackers themselves.

Teens nowadays are starting to become sexually active at such a young age.  Some, believe it or not, at the age of 11! It angers me though to know that such young kids that should be playing with toys and stuff are starting to do adult things.  I don't know why they are doing it; is it like a game to them? Does it make them cooler to say "Oh i had sex."?  Before a kid talking about sex was never heard of.  They were never told about the consequences about it or were educated about it.  Why are our teens taking risks while their being educated? Is it because that we are being talked about sex that teens have decided to start doing it?  Should we have been told about it?

I have yet to understand some of these people who call themselves Christians. People that go to regular churches, sit there, listen to the Word, and go home reflecting on what they've heard, are so quick to judge people. One topic that comes to mind in particular is homosexuality. I know, as a Christian, that homosexuality is a sin in God's eyes, but where do people get off talking about them as if they are not human?! This highly upsets me because some of these "Christians" are so damn hypocritical. They have a LOT of nerve walking around cursing, yelling, and screaming, verbally abusing the homosexuals, then going back to church to clap and praise God for all he has done and stuff like that. To sit here and read the Bible that basically says that people shouldn't be wicked to one another, and then to physically, emotionally, and mentally hurt someone is absolutely ridiculous. I can't stand sitting around and watching these "Christians" ridicule someone for what they believe and obviously feel strong about. It urks me and makes me want to say something in the protection of the homosexual.

Let me just get some things out of the way.
1) Naruto does not belong to me. The entire Naruto franchise belongs to Masashi Kishimoto.
2) The pictures used in this post came from onemanga.com, thanks to SleepyFans, for the scans
3) that's about it, i guess....

    Okay, now that that's out of the way. Those of you out there who've been keeping up with the Naruto manga, have most likely read or at least heard about the new chapter. The basics, Naruto gets carried back to Konoha by Kakashi ^\\, where he is greeted by the entire village that shunned and hated him as a child, now cheering and praising him. Meanwhile, the most important part of the chapter (in my opinion) was the big meeting between the Daimyo of the Fire Country, his advisors (I think), the two elders of Konoha, Shikaku, an ANBU and of course, Danzo, in a the council room. Oh yeah, and the cloud nins arrive at Konoha, but they don't matter. Then there's the whole Tsunade's-in-a-coma-and-we-don't-know-when-or-if-she'll-wake-up thing.

    Anyway, the Daimyo was there to set up a budget for the rebuilding of Konoha and everyone

    Vampire novels have been popping up like crazy. In book stores there's whole sections devoted to just vampire books. But classics are good to read some times and Dracula is a great start to vampires.  One of my favorite vampire novels  is Twilight.  This is also a vampire book. There's a difference between these vampires though.  In Dracula the vampires have sharp teeth, red glowing eyes, could walk on walls, and suck human blood with the abilities to control the weather around them and transform into any shape and size. There are limitations to them to, they can't enter a house without being invited the first time, no sun light, hate holy things and can't cross running water. In Twilight they don't have sharp teeth, can have red or amber eyes, can climb up things, can suck human or animal blood, some have special abilities. Instead of being weakened in sunlight they sparkle and holy things have no effect on them. There are other things these vampires can do and are restricted to do, but the main things is that they are different.

I don't understand the whole epidemic dealing with being bisexual. And also, I don't think that you're really bi.  Either you like boys or you like girls if you're a guy or girl. There are some people who actually think that they're bi, and that's their own personal thing.  A lot of people now are coming out of nowhere and saying, "Oh I'm bisexual."

What crap is that? Seriously? No you're not. You just want people to notice you, and so you say some crap like that. This whole bisexual epidemic is annoying.  I'll put money on it that 40% of the people who claim they are bi are actually not, and are mistaken for saying that.

There could be some people who actually are bisexual, although I don't really think that's real. To me, either you're gay or straight. There's no grey.

Well first of, I am against people who cut themselves. I see no point of doing it what so ever. I mean life has ups and downs. You have to deal with it. Life isnt supposed to be perfect and dandy. You are supposed to pass through bad grades, break-ups, embaressment, deaths, etc. Just because  you break  the point of your pencil, you are going to cut yourself? NO! just get up and go sharpen it. Im NOT saying that people who do cut there selves, do it for the tiniest reasons but when you fall, you get up and act like nothing happpened or just laugh it off. Same with life. If someone very close dies, you have to let it pass by. You may cry and it may seem like the world is ending, but people come and go. And that doesnt go only to when you are moving to a new school. I mean I stopped a girl from cutting herself before it was too late. She had already started to cut herself. I stopped her because I cared for her. I also did it because mean while cutting yyourself you could reach a point where you cut a vien and guess what? You just died. Your viens on your wrist are very delicate.
