So, yeah, I was on TV. And it was hi-def:
Note my puffy hair. At the very last second—literally as behind-the-camera guy was counting down with his fingers—I reached up and puffed my hair. What was I thinking?
Luckily, it’s not a lot of hair.
Some notes:
A) Getting up at 7:30AM sucks, even if it’s to be on TV.
B) I am vastly taller than MAC and Jane O’Connor.
C) One minute is shorter than you think.
D) The cameras for TV news shows are robots now! Like, they move around on their own like frickin’ Daleks. Did anyone else know that?
E) My voice isn’t usually that low. Must have been head-cold related, but it sounds kind of cool. (I wonder if anyone will ever engineer a virus that doesn’t make you feel like crap, but gives you perpetual sexy-cold voice.)
F) My hand gestures are weird when zoomed in on. Next time, must wear wrist weights.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes shot, as taken by Justine.
Thanks for watching, and have a great week.
June 10th, 2008 10:06
great job Scott-la!!
1st comment! ha!
June 10th, 2008 10:13
2nd post! you’re so spoiled, scott-sama. we have to get up at 6:30 every day for school. AND there’s no TV appearances for us. I’m going to watch the interview right now…
June 10th, 2008 10:32
Haha. You are funny Scott. And i will have you know that i thought u did great! I didnt even notice the puffy hair!
June 10th, 2008 10:38
Live TV is very nerve-wracking! Congrats!
June 10th, 2008 10:48
You know what sucks more than getting up at 7:30 to be on TV? Getting up at 6:45 to get to the airport. Yes, AM.
June 10th, 2008 10:51
comment 6!
-Lizzy-wa OUT!
June 10th, 2008 10:55
HaHa, “sexy-cold voice”? Dude Scott-la you crack me up!
June 10th, 2008 10:57
hehe, kewl hair!
i makes the top ten
June 10th, 2008 11:04
sleeping til 7:30 is called sleeping in when you are on a swim team. 5:30am on saturdays!*insert false sarcastic yay*
June 10th, 2008 11:23
Uh! siblings are so annoying! This is my sister…”Are you gonna help me clean up?” me: “mom never said she wanted it clean she still has to eat.” sibling: “Ok, you knwo what? Mom shouldnt have to ASK us to clean, ok!?” me: “Ok you can clean it.” sibling: “i will!” me: *rolls eyes* How annoying! She didnt ask us to clean it and she hasnt even eaten yet so here she is…cleaning it. I hope she has fun! Suck-up…
So today i went on a super shopping spree. We went to the mall and bought a whole lot of stuff. We mostly got it for our summer vaction trip next week but i got other stuff too. i got a lot. And of course all that stuff you need….contact solution, hair stuff…..yep. It was fun.
June 10th, 2008 11:26
Exams are coming. The only plus is that swimming will end (down with the dreaded saturday morning practice! 5:30am is not a good time to wake up.) But the real question is what would quotation marks say to each other if they could talk? I think they would argue…
June 10th, 2008 11:27
Gosh, now my sibling is teeling my dad who just walked in the door. My sibling is like “Well nobody is helping me.” Im sure she added a little tear in there.
June 10th, 2008 11:29
My brother is at orientation for his new school (aka MY school). It really is a good thing we will be in seperate school buildings…
June 10th, 2008 11:35
Life becomes pitiful when people (aka My sibling) ruins it for you. My dad difnt care that she was a lone cleaning…neither did i. But still! nobody likes a tattler. they are mean and they are pathetic! Keep your darn problems to yourself! you daddy aint gonna help you! URG!
June 10th, 2008 11:41
Ya well my brother is in the next room throwing a temper tantrum cuz he’s loosing at the video game screaming and crying “DIE ALREADY!!!! DIE! DIE! DIE! I CAN’T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!!!!!”
June 10th, 2008 11:46
haha you hear from your docter “im sorry to say this but you are infected with sexy man voice”
the inerveiw is funny i love the part when scott-sama says “almost as beautiful as you guys” when if that dude would have read the book it might have been insulting, maybe…. because of the whole bubble headed thing but whatever…
June 10th, 2008 11:52
Scott u were definetly the most professional…i liked yours best:D:D:D
good job!!!
June 10th, 2008 12:34
You were great! I woke up early just to watch it. My library now has tons of copies of the entire series and the Midnighters series because they’re ALL on the summer reading lists. You’re taking over my town! haha yay
June 10th, 2008 12:57
lol! Scott, that was great, and I loved your comments!
June 10th, 2008 12:58
Haha, Daleks
June 10th, 2008 13:00
OH! Guess what!? So today I went out and got the mail and I had gotten a P.B. Teen magazine -I hate how they always have the exact same stuff in them every time- and I was just flipping through the pages out of boredom and saw Uglies in the background of one of the rooms! That was kind of cool.
June 10th, 2008 13:02
today at my school libraray the gave us the routine lectures about Summer Reading and i was about to throw a fit when no Scott books were on the list…and then i remeber im in 7th grade and my county under estimates us and probaly put them on the 12th grade list
June 10th, 2008 13:03
hahaha! That was great. You’re a natural on camera, Scott.
June 10th, 2008 13:13
My school doesn’t give us summer reading lists. Not like I need one to tell me what to read, that list is long enough. I am so board, it isn’t funny. Exams are coming. Kill the exams before the exams kill us.
June 10th, 2008 14:10
You still have exams?? When do you get out of school? I get out this thursday. We also don’t have end of the year exams, it depends what the teacher feels like doing. My english teacher and french teacher are CRAZY (dont get me wrong i like them) theres only 1 more full day of school and we are still doing work. All my other classes stopped working like the begining of last week. Last year we had to read Pool Boy over the summer which was torture! I finished it a week after school ended so i forgot what happened by the time school started. This year, my math teacher says that we are getting math hw from our 8th grade teacher for the summer, but who knows with him, he’s a LITTLE LOCO. We dont get summer reading lists. I am so glad, all the books that we usually have to read are terrible. And even if they are good everybody starts hating it because of all the packets and worksheets we have to do. Ugh, i have to go clean up the bathroom now (just had a shower). Laters
June 10th, 2008 14:39
I disagree about the hand gestures – they didn’t look weird at all. And it would have been stranger (I think) if you’d just been standing there without moving.
The question seemed a really random thing to be asking authors, though, like they couldn’t come up with anything else to ask you all that would just take a minute.
Good publicity, anyway. And well done you.
(Also, Daleks, lol!)
June 10th, 2008 15:35
super fabuloso (woo im so not good with spanish)sorry disscusion about fav lil kid tv shows going on
cuz you know what steve from blues clues isnt dead from cancer like i thought he was.Woo he actualy sings now, and he isnt bad his real name is steve burns look him up.Somehow we ended up on how most lil kid shows now focus around spanish language and culture.I only watched Dora(kinda)
June 10th, 2008 16:45
Flawless, Scott. Lurved it. You answered a boring question in an interesting way! Hoorah for you!
June 10th, 2008 16:53
Are you serious?! I thought he was dead too!
June 10th, 2008 18:30
i thought he was dead too until last year when we learned the truth about him singing. before that, the rumor was that he committed suicide by sticking two pencils up his nose and slamming his head on the table. i wonder who comes up with these things?
June 10th, 2008 23:17
That’s interesting. 8 more days til exams. I’m going to fail Social Studies exam. *sarcastic chearfulness*
June 11th, 2008 04:06
Well….I’d probably believe that considering his job…
June 11th, 2008 04:11
Yay for Scott-la! You did great!
I’m sorry, I can’t help but laugh about the blues clues guy… Have fun with your exams, Andrea-La! I have history tomorrow. Ugh. Got to go hit the books. Bye!
June 11th, 2008 04:24
Now you have me terrified of camera Daleks coming to attack.
June 11th, 2008 05:27
I am DEFFINITLY going to fail my Social Studies exam. By fail I mean get less than 80%. That would knock me off first class honors. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Must go study now.
June 11th, 2008 07:03
That’s cool! Your hair wasn’t that puffy though!
June 11th, 2008 07:07
What sucks the most is getting up at 5:30 for a swim meet…on a Saturday, and having to get up each week day at 7:45 each day for swim practice.
June 11th, 2008 07:08
Andrea-La I didn’t see your post. But I agree fully.
June 11th, 2008 07:10
I saw that last night! I didn’t even know you were going to be on, but I flipped on the news and shouted.
(I scared my dad out of his nap.)
It disappointed me that they listed you as the “Uglies” author. I was hoping that they would say he “Peeps” author, but I suppose “Uglies” has a better fandom, neh?
Ah, well, at least I got to see you. Good job, Scott!
Morgan would be proud.
As would Tally.
June 11th, 2008 07:16
I wonder what it would be like to be a quotation mark. It may be better than being a person…
June 11th, 2008 07:55
Andrea-La, please stop making us contemplate the lives (?) of quotation marks unduly. Now I’m saying that quotation marks have lives. See what you’ve done to me!?
June 11th, 2008 08:49
GO SCOTT-LA
(P.S. LOVE THE HAIR) LOL
June 11th, 2008 08:49
WAY TO GO
June 11th, 2008 08:52
wow comment 43 that name just about covers it all
that i so weird that the camera’s move on their own. I can’t wait for all the new books coming out this summer!!!!
June 11th, 2008 09:16
Our summer reading list suck! Its always pointless books no one would ever read. And they are published in like, 1990. They are really old! this years is called Whirligig. Look it up. Its horrible.
June 11th, 2008 10:38
also, Uglies is on my summer reading list. because i am awesome.
and dude, 1990 is practically today when it comes to summer reading. we’ve had, like, Great Expectations and All Quiet on the Western Front for summer reading.
my school gets out on Friday and today i had my last exam.
June 11th, 2008 10:44
But quotation marks really do have lives. In a way. Except the fact that they are abiotic. But really, if they were alive, the world would be so cool.
June 11th, 2008 11:23
slammin!!!!!!
It was very nerve- wrecking, and you did
FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, You didn’t really look that sick

Quotation marks are a valuable part of society. It would be a pitty if they went on strike.
June 11th, 2008 12:07
Ooh, has anyone read The Art of Racing in the Rain?
June 11th, 2008 12:27
No
June 11th, 2008 13:29
That was pretty jokes.
I am trying to bring as many books as I can with me to NY when I go in two weeks. I don’t like hot weather in summer, and New York weather is extreme to me. So I refuse to go outside in it. (I mean, Seattle is Land of Unextreme Weather, and that is the way I like it.) Unfortunately there are now those stupid extra baggage fees. So I will have to maybe spread my books out into the bags of my brother and sister…
Actually, that’s a really good idea. >.>
June 11th, 2008 13:34
Baggage fees are totally retarded! I’m going to New York too! But at the end of July for a writing workshop thingedy…
June 11th, 2008 14:19
I might go to new york or arkansas this july too!(but most likely arkansas to see my new neice and nefew).I go to new york every 2 or 3 years i love it.
Ive noticed most of the books ive read havve been on the pulse it! list thing without relising it till after i buy it
June 11th, 2008 14:21
Capt I didnt know your from washington too!
sorry double post
But I describe washingtons weather as Bipolar
June 11th, 2008 15:07
so i wish i could read all those comments. but it’s 11. and i still have drivers ed homework to do. grr.
we won our game tonight!!
10 to 2. (and this team was undefeated.) it was awesome. and then we all went out to DQ and had lots of ice cream. okay well i’se gotta go. laters.
June 11th, 2008 15:18
Awesome interview, Scott. I think you did well, and your hair looked fine, you know. I always thought there were people behind the camera’s, and where’s the bumbling Boom Man that always has grease on his shirt? Haha, I hang out with my videographer friends way too often.
So….how’s Levithan going? Are you going to give us ANY MORE HINTS?
Yours begging sweetly,
Hannah
June 11th, 2008 15:54
Go Kay-wa! And Kenzie what part of Arkansas? I have an Aunt that lives near Little Rock.
June 11th, 2008 16:04
nz’s weather is pretty much split personality. in summer, it is unbearably hot and sunny. in winter it is unbearably cold and rainy. there are like, three days per year when the weather is alright. and its basically 4 months of summer, 8 months of winter
June 12th, 2008 02:38
I have a stupid cover girl commercial stuck in my head. “Big, Bold, look at me lashes! Use the new Lash blast Brush from CoverGirl!” I have been saying that alllllll morning.
June 12th, 2008 03:31
Omg… I haven’t been on here in such a long time…. What have I missed? Is there any new news on when the movie is coming out??? I can’t wait until October 21st!! I am preordering it deffiently.
June 12th, 2008 06:38
Bran-la, we had to read Whirligig in school and it was soooo boring. I hate when teachers read the book outloud while you read it in your head. Its sooo annyoing i end up finishing the book 2 weeks before everyone else does. Today as i said earlier, we got the avalanche!!!!! 45 scoops! I almost threw up!! There were 12 of us and we finished it in 9 minutes, the record was 8, but that was for boys, so we beat the record for girls!! EWWWW just thinking about it makes me want to throw up! Ohhhh oh oh, i finally got Twilight. *does happy dance* Turns out the library had its so i got all mad for nothing. Im on chapter 6, the book, its calling me, Must. Go. Read.
Talk to ya later &Mrgreen;
June 12th, 2008 06:39
eugh how do you do the green smiley, and the one that is pink and changes color??? somone help me!!
June 12th, 2008 07:58
love it! my daughter and i do exactly what you suggest. she reads it first, then i read it. then we gab about it for hours! she’s gotten great suggestions for other books from her friends. part of me can’t wait until she’s older, because we’re going to have VERY similar tastes in books.
thank you for yours. i’m going to investigate your other series’.
June 12th, 2008 08:33
Exams are coming. One week left to study my brains out so that I have a medical condition serious enough not to take them.
June 12th, 2008 08:34
chapter 10!! OOOhhhhh its sooooo good. Must. Stop. Reading! I read wayyyy to fast and then i am like sooo sad when i finish it if its a single book, im sad when i finish series tooo.
June 12th, 2008 08:47
i finished Eclipse last night. ah! it was so good! hungry for more! tempted to go back and reread it…. but i got like a ton of new books that i want to read. so i think i will wait a month and then read it again… if i can wait anyways. but i know what you mean Tara-la i read all three books wayyy too fast and now i’m like ugh it’s over? i have to wait until August 2nd? *cry*cry* i get over it though… with more amazing books.. that probably won’t live up to the Twilight series. (sorrys to those of you who don’t like the books and are tired of hearing about them.
i know i shouldn’t talk about them here. but it’s just so hard not to… this is the only place i getta talk about my books without people telling me i’m such a nerd.)
man. my cousin is taking forever to read Uglies. seriously! i gave them to her to borrow in April. and when i asked her last she was only 60 pages in! i soooo shouldn’t have given her all four books. what was i thinking? i bet she already lost them. rawr. i wanna get them back from her. but i don’t want to be mean. hmm..
another game tonight… if it doesn’t start downpouring first. which it probably will because we are in a flashflood or whatever watch and a tornado watch. fun. fun.
June 12th, 2008 08:49
arbys put wayyyyy too much chocolate syrup in this malt. it makes me wanna gag.
bleh.
June 12th, 2008 09:02
I read way way way too fast. I read a book a day, and I’m always so sad when they are over. I read both twilight and new moon in one day.
June 12th, 2008 09:34
OMG! My cousin is driving me up a wall! She is, like, a lot older than me and she acts like my sister. And she is calling me and texting me and i am about to rip my air out! Its been almost a week now…..ahhhh…..go away! *crys*
June 12th, 2008 09:35
rip my hair out, not air
June 12th, 2008 09:39
Same here, I read the whole Twilight series in three days total. I did that with the Uglies and Midnighters series too. Hmmm….they say that the first step to healing is to admit. I admit I have problems. I admit I have many. So the way I figure it, I’ve healed a lot. Like the first step x 10000000. I should be OD’d off of healing by now, heck I could be dead and not even know it!
June 12th, 2008 09:39
Help….
June 12th, 2008 09:55
TZ they live in bald knob arkansas, has to be the silliest name ever.woo today we decided was are last real day of school because tomorrow is activity day so we have like 20 minute classes then the rest of the day we hang around, sign annuals(yearbooks) and play on giant inflatable toys.Then friday we go to wild waves well all the kids who have 2 or less detentions(lucky me i got two this year =O ).Then moday most classes will have little partys and jazz and tuesday our last day we have a giant assemble for 9th grade awards that is MANDATORY if your at school that day and its like 3 hours ugh.I dont see why we’re ending on a tuesday just wrong.But today I need to finish my ABC book for science and portfolio for english that i need to completely put together but i have all the info and worksheets.
June 12th, 2008 10:00
You know what i hate about itunes? They always make you download a new version. It drives my crazy. Cant i just have the old one? I kept my old one and it wouldn’t let me buy anything. I was mad. How mean!
June 12th, 2008 10:08
i know its always offering a new version new version new version. I just got a new ipod nano and before i could put music on to it i have to download a new version, i want to kill it
June 12th, 2008 10:10
Yeah i just had to download one. Like 7.2 or w/e.
June 12th, 2008 10:42
A trick for dealing with “new version new version new version”:
Make a list of all the music you want for a set period of time (for me, two months) and tell your computer not to always open iTunes when it starts up (go Start, Run, MSConfig, Startup, and uncheck iTunes. This is for Windows – I have a PC so I don’t know about Macs.) Then, when you have a good long list of songs, open iTunes, upgrade, and buy all the songs. I think upgrading three versions once every other month is a lot easier than upgrading one version every other week!
And I thoroughly sympathize about wanting to kill computer-related stuff. Anybody want to mail me a sledgehammer?
June 12th, 2008 10:47
Yeah, no clue where that is Kenzie. No offense but I hate Arkansas with the fiery passion of a thousand suns. Not all aspects of it….just a lot, but I have my reasons. Traumatic reasons that involve bugs (HUGE freaking bugs) snakes and a buncha other creepy crawly things, and people that hate my guts just because I was from a different state and had a “funny” accent in their perspective, and did I mention bugs? Now bugs don’t usually bother me, but those bugs are NOT freaking Normal! And so yeah….it was not a fun time being there.
June 12th, 2008 10:53
whenever upgrades appear on my computer i always click remind me later.
hmm.. it’s tornadoes time here. i was taking a nap and my dad yells at me “KAYLEE GET DOWN HERE!” and i run down the stairs and he yells “GET UNDER THE STAIRCASE!” so i stand under the staircase for like five minutes blinking a flash light on and off. fun stuff. and now i think were out of danger for a little while anyways. now theres thunderous booms going off in the sky. (reminds me of the Cullens playing baseball.
hehe.) okay. well i gotta go again. moms worried.
June 12th, 2008 11:02
Its all clear over here. Nice and clear. But it is getting a little dark. Not really dark but the sun is going down.
I bored. I will now balance CDs on my finger.
June 12th, 2008 11:15
EW dont tell me your talking about chiggers(i seriously just suddered) im not gonna go into detail. OR are you talking about how their bugs are overall big
June 12th, 2008 11:33
I like bugs, especially big ones.
June 12th, 2008 11:36
Like that one time when I brought a cockroach into the school and everyone was afraid of me…good times, good times. And that other time when I got really mad at the boys at school for killing the worms. I mean, they have happy wormy lives to live out and don’t deserve to be cut in half by a shovel.
June 12th, 2008 11:37
And that other time, when I made friends with this mealworm…I was so sad when my friend had to feed it to her gecko.
June 12th, 2008 11:38
Wait a second, she fed it to her bearded dragon, not her gecko. It was the gecko that I had a stareing contest with…
June 12th, 2008 11:38
Andrea-la look up chiggers their creepy and evil
they go under your skin
June 12th, 2008 11:40
Oh look, I have a dictonary right in front of me. They sound pretty cool. I still like cockroaches though. And worms…and scaring people with cockroaches. And spiders. And snakes.
June 12th, 2008 11:41
Snakes are cool. Milipeads are better.
June 12th, 2008 11:41
Oh and leeches. But not if they attach themselves onto you.
June 12th, 2008 11:42
I think I might be board.
June 12th, 2008 11:43
And I don’t feel like thinking about quotation marks.
June 12th, 2008 11:43
i like snakes
we used to race them when we were little the red striped ones always seemed to win
June 12th, 2008 11:44
Cool. Quotation marks are really cool to think about. I wonder what they would say if they could talk…
June 12th, 2008 11:46
I bet thier related so if their twins I bet they would argue alot.
June 12th, 2008 11:46
I like quotation marks.
June 12th, 2008 11:47
I think quotation marks would go on strike. If you were a quotation mark, wouldn’t you get sick of saying other people’s words for them?
June 12th, 2008 11:48
yes i would
thats why i wouldnt want to be a mirror. For a project for drama we had to be a object and do a monologe from its perspective. I was going between mirror and oven. I did oven
June 12th, 2008 11:49
If you want to here my total opinion on the matter, click on my name and you will go to my blog where I thought this out. Please comment, it makes me excited.
June 12th, 2008 11:49
Quotation marks…they make endless discussion
June 12th, 2008 11:50
Mirrors are cool too. Just maybe, they are too…
June 12th, 2008 11:52
Actually i have look at your blog, very interesting.
Personaly I would be jealous if i was a apostraphe, because they dont have anyone while quotation marks do
June 12th, 2008 11:54
You find my blog interesting? I like that word. It means not normal, but not weird. It means, that you like it. I think that the world is seriously messed up. I think I would like to be a frog. Or maybe a flying fish. What would you rather be?
June 12th, 2008 11:55
I would most like to be a question mark. I love questions. Although they keep me up at night and sometimes make me cry, I love them. The question is more important than the answer.
June 12th, 2008 11:57
questions get you farther than answers. I want to be the easter bunny i think it would be the best your known but not bothered, plus your cute and furry
June 12th, 2008 11:58
I would much rather be something else. Maybe an idea store.
June 12th, 2008 11:59
I’m talking about chiggers and ticks and locusts and cicadas and spiders that are so giant that it’s just plain not funny anymore. My poor dog was so traumatized by all the freaking ticks and stuff we had to pull off of her! My poor puppy! And I’m not afraid of snakes as long as they’re not poisonous. Most of those I encountered were indeed very poisonous. One thing I did like though was frogs! The tiny baby ones are SO cute! And the fireflies are pretty cool too. And I swear the weather is freaking bipolar! In the summer it can be sunny and like over a hundred degrees and then you blink and there are freaking black clouds and its raining like heck!
June 12th, 2008 11:59
idea store? you lost me.
June 12th, 2008 12:00
Oooh! I have a question! Will you guys answer it? Cuz this one’s REALLY important!
June 12th, 2008 12:01
Idea store. Come up for ideas that people would use. Most people currently ignore my ideas. Questions are good.
June 12th, 2008 12:03
question!
June 12th, 2008 12:03
Yay for questions!
June 12th, 2008 12:05
What is your very importaint question
June 12th, 2008 12:06
I’m waiting for the question too.
June 12th, 2008 12:08
If no one is going to ask a question, can I? “What is more important, reality or imaginary?”
June 12th, 2008 12:09
Okay so say you lived your whole life thinking, all the choices you made-good or bad- they were yours, and you’re happy with them, thinking all your thoughts and feelings were yours, but it turns out you’ve lived your whole life as nothing more than….a figment of someone’s imagination. A puppet to someone else’s desires, and you never knew, not until your last days when you’re in danger of…well I wouldn’t say dying, more of….ceasing to exist. But there’s something you can do about it, to save the life of the person who’s puppet you are, saving them and ultimately yourself. But now you know, and knowing that you’ll never be anything for yourself, you’ll never have your own memories or ideas or your own life for that matter, would you do it? just to go back to that? or would you sit back and watch it end? Because you were cheated out of an existence for crying out loud! What would you do?
June 12th, 2008 12:09
QuestionQuestionQuestion!!
June 12th, 2008 12:10
Die. But the real question here is, Do our brains control us, or are we our brains?
June 12th, 2008 12:11
Imaginary is more important, it’s what you make it not what others decide for you. But in a sense, reality is imaginary because all it is, is people’s dreams coming true. But a lot of the time, those dreams happen to be nightmares.
June 12th, 2008 12:11
If my question is answered either way, we aren’t even ourselves ever.
June 12th, 2008 12:12
But imaginary determins reality.
June 12th, 2008 12:12
Oh jeez
um Id save them. They were not cruel, they made your life enjoyable, and they gave you good memories and made you make good decisions.Although I wouldnt have a choice in the matter in the rest of my life i would know i would enjoy life.Plus i think it would make life more exciting not knowing were or what will be happen next
June 12th, 2008 12:13
hmmmmmmmmmm.
June 12th, 2008 12:13
I wonder…
June 12th, 2008 12:13
Hmm…our brains are a tool used to think but really screw up our feelings and confuse the heck out of us and make us ask weird questions so both.
June 12th, 2008 12:15
But both means that we are controled by something. Then what are we?
June 12th, 2008 12:15
Wasnt that kinda thing in PEEPS
he said that our brain and body doesnt work for us we work for them.I believe that fact
June 12th, 2008 12:16
Yeah Kenzie, but not all people have good memories and had good lives, what if the person was cruel and you didn’t know it? Cruelty is a loose term.You can’t judge a person that easily.
June 12th, 2008 12:16
But we must be something more than just a body and brain. We have a soul. And roots. This brings us back to the “acorn theory”
June 12th, 2008 12:17
We are….we are us. Unique because we control and are controlled.
June 12th, 2008 12:17
acorn theory? Care to elaborate? And I’d love to continue this conversation but I have to go…
June 12th, 2008 12:18
Again, we are brought back to the “acorn theory”
June 12th, 2008 12:18
Our souls i beleive are the only thing we control the rest or actions feeling ect, are controled by something different, i dont know what though
June 12th, 2008 12:20
Acorn theory. As in we start out as acorn and grow into a tree. Just we have roots and the roots determin us. But people can’t see the roots, making us all the same. We can’t show our roots until we die and go to heaven. Or until a crises occurs and we are uprooted. See, we are all acorns. This is also used as a metiphore for Christians and faith journys. Just in bible class, they never really talked about being uprooted…
June 12th, 2008 12:21
Souls are so important. They don’t die. Just we don’t show them. We don’t show our roots. We don’t show who we are. We are in one messed up society and are all robots to it, whether we like it or not. But maybe that is for the better.
June 12th, 2008 12:22
But probably not.
June 12th, 2008 12:23
we dont show ourselves, i dont think we know ourselves competely. trends have taken over we dont know anymore
June 12th, 2008 12:25
Now I am crying. I wish that we were no longer robots to society. I wish that we could somehow change the world. In the Bible it says that we can. I know what I have to do but I don’t know how to do it and I have only told 2 people about it. Trends suck. Commercialism sucks. Our society sucks. The world is so perfect, but people aren’t. The problem is that we are people.
June 12th, 2008 12:28
ARE WORLD SUCKS
that is the truth.
I try an exspress myself patching my shoes, neon colors with blacks sweater armwarmers that are very warm and comfy(i have em on right now)but i dont think its TRUELY me
June 12th, 2008 12:28
oops i ment our not are
June 12th, 2008 12:30
If we try to not be normal, we are still far off from ourselves. I pretend to be so many things, but so rarely are they me. I am most honest on my blog, but that is writing. Writing and living are both so different. This makes me so sad. Maybe I should try to change the world. The only problem with the ripple effect is that it only goes on for so long, then it stops.
June 12th, 2008 12:33
normal is a tough word. I try not to think normal, i think individual.
June 12th, 2008 12:33
I hate and love the word normal. I love it because it has no definition. I hate it because people insist on giving it one.
June 12th, 2008 12:36
exactly you and i think alot alike
June 12th, 2008 12:38
That nice. Really nice. Great minds think alike. The thing is that stupid minds think alike too. So, which ones are we? I would prefer great. Remember in Uglies how Tally kept saying the beauty was evelution and all that? The thing is, I don’t believe in evelution. What about you?
June 12th, 2008 12:39
I beleive part of it as i beleive partly in god it very confusing
June 12th, 2008 12:41
I definitly believe in God. But it’s hard when you think about where did God come from. Life is confusing. I kinda hope that death is less confusing, not like I’m planning on dying soon. But I’m not afraid of it.
June 12th, 2008 12:41
wow. that was a very deep. very meaningful. very powerful conversation to read.
June 12th, 2008 12:43
my sis has a great quote
“What really interests me is whether God had any choice in the creation of the world.” -Albert Einstein
its very interesting
June 12th, 2008 12:44
Conversation must be meaningful, or else it is empty. But many people tend to avoid meaningful conversation. Too deep for them.
June 12th, 2008 12:45
meaningful conversations often hurt thats why people avoid them
June 12th, 2008 12:45
Of couse God had choice in the creation. He invented choice to begin with. Or at least I think He did. But we have creation when making a school project, right? Therefore God had choice when making the world.
June 12th, 2008 12:46
If we don’t hurt, we never feel anything except happyness, which doesn’t help us grow. And we need to grow.
June 12th, 2008 12:46
but did god create himself if not who created him
June 12th, 2008 12:48
Maybe not everything has a beginning. Or maybe we just need faith and patience and we will find out when we die. I partly look forward to death because I want to have my questions answered.
June 12th, 2008 12:50
Or prehaps some questions were not ment to be answered.
June 12th, 2008 12:51
God is something else for me i believe but not at the same time
June 12th, 2008 12:51
If we were ment to know only the answer, God wouldn’t have given us questions.
June 12th, 2008 12:51
Really, I am totally conviced that God is real. Every day is a mirical. Every wind, every leaf is God’s work. We can’t be an accident.
June 12th, 2008 12:53
I believe god created this world, i beleive he makes miricals but he cannot do everything for everyone can he?
June 12th, 2008 12:54
He can but he wont. He wants us to learn.
June 12th, 2008 12:55
thats partly why i beleive in evolution, we wernt created completely like we are now, he had us evolve to help us learn
June 12th, 2008 12:56
Prehaps. I personally think that we were more intelligent before we “evolved”. People have regressed.
June 12th, 2008 13:00
I think we were smart in a different way
June 12th, 2008 13:01
In a better way. Now people are robots to society. I would rather be stupid than a robot to society.
June 12th, 2008 13:03
Wow, you guys sure can talk up a storm. But them again…so can it.
June 12th, 2008 13:04
Joining our conversation? Cool
June 12th, 2008 13:04
Well if God created everything…dont you think he also created evolution?
June 12th, 2008 13:05
Prehaps. Possibilities are endless. “anything is possible with God”
June 12th, 2008 13:08
In the past we beleived differently
June 12th, 2008 13:09
In the past people thought differently. I like thinking.
June 12th, 2008 13:10
think about all the great minds of the past but now we know so much, so people stoped caring, becoming robots
June 12th, 2008 13:10
I say, put it in the God box. (the God box is suppose to be like endless never answered questions for God).
June 12th, 2008 13:11
I need to go to bed. Good Night!
June 12th, 2008 13:12
night!
June 12th, 2008 13:12
I have a question. Do you think that (not noing if all of yall are Americans) the US by going to war is actually trying to get land?
June 12th, 2008 13:13
Night.
June 12th, 2008 13:15
no not at all its a personal thing more so
(yes im american) we havent had anything like war or attacks in the US for a long time. and the last time it was us battling ourselves
June 12th, 2008 13:27
Haha. True. I hate war though. Like, why do we care what others do? Its THEIR country not ours. Its like someone coming and telling you what to do in your house. Like they own it.
June 12th, 2008 13:33
thats why
they came to our country and bombed
though i think the war could have been handled better
June 12th, 2008 13:49
I keep forgetting to comment! Darn my bad memory! I shall bow my head in shame…
June 12th, 2008 15:28
Does nobody remember 9/11 anymore? War sucks like crap. We all know that. But we as humans have a fairly strong sense of self preservation and pride therefore as they defaced and weakened our country our natural reaction is to defend ourselves, to fight back. And I totally understand where you’re coming from when you say that Bran-la, it is their country and not ours to control, but before you jump to conclusions like that you should do your homework on the subject and then you’d see that there was a reason. There’s a reason for all actions and countereffects right behind them on the freaking assembly line of life. The former ruler of the country we’re currently at war with could be considered a dictator in most’s eyes, he’s no longer in power, which is good because innocent people were dying because of him, but like I said there’s a countereffect to that. There are two main religious groups there that have been at war with eachother for many many many years and now that one of them is weakened the other tries to take this advantage to gain power. So war picks up between them again, the effect? More and more deaths. Now there is a president there, and a new democracy but some are fighting back because they are used to the old ways. Another thing as humans is that we get complacent and hate change, fight back against it. We need to be there, our military, so that there can be enforcement in that change and that there can be freedom, and give the people there hope, we can’t undo what’s been done, but we can attempt to change it for future generations, giving them stability. And yes, war is definitely a harsh way to act upon this, and actions are most usually harsh, but we’re not perfect, nobody is and this is our best, even though our best happens to be a half-a** attempt at it. It’s what we can do. This, coming from the little sister of a U.S. Soldier.
June 12th, 2008 15:39
I 100% agree TZ
(my sisters boyfriend is in the military hes like a brother)
I very much dislike bush but i support our troops.
because you can talk about how bad the war is, or how bad our president is because I’ll most definitly agree, but when you bad mouth the people fighting for your rights along with millons of others for no self-gain is wrong. Think to yourself “would you be able to do what they do every day”.I know I couldn’t but I’m glad there are people that can.
ps:im glad for a new president
June 12th, 2008 16:04
Ya, but look at it this way….the new president can’t just make it all go away, he or she can’t just pull the troops out. My brother is on call for his second tour of duty overseas…and it scares me. But that’s the biggest reason why I have such a strong opinion on this matter, it changes how you see things, when you wake up in the middle of the night because you don’t know wether or not they’ll be coming home.
June 12th, 2008 23:15
I really think that war is bad. I am from Canada, so I can’t fully participate in this conversation, but really, war is bad.
June 13th, 2008 01:07
I’ve been on tv myself, and I agree, things seem different. Time is short, and the cameras are a bit creepy, even though the ones where I was didn’t actually move that much. Still, its an awesome experience.
June 13th, 2008 03:02

June 13th, 2008 05:49
Wow,how such a meaningful and deep conversation can be turned into this just proves our point about society. No offense.
June 13th, 2008 06:38
Well, back to various deep and meaningful conversations…
I don’t believe in God. For me, seeing is believing. I used to believe in God when I was little, but that was back before I knew that awful things could happen.
And war is an awful thing. Hundreds of people die, and by the time the war is over, it ceases to be about the thing that caused it in the first place. World War 1, for example, was started over Serbian rebels killing an Austro-Hungarian Important Person. By the end, the war continuted just to see who could win. Neither side was willing to give up, so it went on and on. All wars are like that, really. They’re started over some cause or another, but by the time it’s all over, you can see that it continued just because human beings will never give up. I think wars would be a lot less bloody and a lot shorter if, after a few months, the head people sat down and asked, “Now, what was this war about again?” In Iraq, the answer would be Saddam Hussein. Now they can ask, “Did we achieve our goal?” In Iraq, yes. Saddam Hussein is dead. Iraq has a democracy. So why are we still hanging out there? I think the answer is because the people in charge can’t bear to admit that we’ve done all we can, even if that means there are still troubles that we are unable to resolve. The United States is not all-powerful. It’s time to wean the Iraqi people off of our help. We can’t support them forever. The world just can’t work that way.
And society does have problems. Always has. Always will. And that’s because, like Andrea-La said, people are not perfect. Whenever someone does change the world, a new system simply falls into place that is as flawed and demanding as the last one was. But changing the world is hard because the majority of people are not smart enough to see that there are problems. The majority of people smart enough to see problems are either too lazy or too pessimistic to attack them. And almost all – and usually all – of the remaining people don’t have enough resources or influence to make a difference. There is really no way to create a perfect society unless human beings somehow attain perfection. That’s why utopia is a flawed concept, because when someone starts creating what they percieve as a utopian community, they usually have to force everyone in their community to believe the same things they do, to think the same way they do, and, ultimately, to be the same kind of person they are. Then other people come along and either a) scream “Dictator!!!” and violently crush the so-called utopia, imposing their own form of leadership (which brings us back to the whole war thing) or b) start showing people what is wrong with their so-called utopia, leaving them to “voluntarily” choose the new form of leadership.
And all this because we are only human.
June 13th, 2008 08:17
Eep! Okay now my head is filling with like a million page speech to retaliate that with, give me a sec to sort things out with my mind then I shall begin. (And yes that was an exaggeration)
June 13th, 2008 08:53
Okay, *breathe in*….*breathe out*….k, I’m good now. It makes me really sad when I hear about someone who believed in God and then at one point stopped believing. But really, you say seeing is believing and I want you to realize that, that concept is flawed too. Do you believe that you have a mind, something that enables you to think for yourself? Can you see it? No. With the naked eye? No. With a microscope? No. You can see your brain, but you can’t see your mind. Psychologists, the best of the best have been trying to figure this out for hundreds of years, but it’s still a no go. It’s there, we know it’s there, but you can’t see it. So since seeing is believing for you, does that mean you don’t have a mind? And you say it was before you knew that awful things could happen, but there’s a reason awful things happen. Without the sin and bad things, would we ever know the extent of the feelings of good things? good deeds? God had a plan. Without letting sin into this world there wouldn’t be a way to know if we were true believers, that truly loved him, because without the other choice, the other way in the path, we would know no other, so we were given the choice of the other path: turning away from him. So many people that were once followers, believers, turn away because it’s easier. It’s easier to just say it’s false than to trust, especially when you’re a person that’s been effected by awful things more than others, it’s hard to have faith still, to trust that there’s something better out there for you and believe that someone loves you and cares about you. But let me ask you and those people this,the same question I’ve asked myself, would you rather believe that everyone is just as evil and tormented as you’ve seen and that everything is just plain terrible in this world and no one cares, because that’s how it was is and always will be, or would you decide to lift your head and open your eyes to the good things too, and hope and believe for a better future and know that out there somewhere is a God that loves you even though at times it’s hard and it seems like he’s far away, out of your reach, he’s right there next to you, all you have to do is accept it and believe and open your heart and SEE it even though you can’t see it literally with your eyes. And just know that I haven’t lived a cushy life always as some of you may expect by my point of view I have on this, it’s been hard ,sometimes I’ve felt like a terrible person because why else would I deserve all this crashing down upon me, all the weight I hold on my shoulders, because the weight of the world is a heavy burdern to bear when you bear it alone, bad bad things have happened, and I know more bad things will come, because for every mountain that I stand tall on top of is another valley, waiting to engulf me, but my faith stays strong because as long as there is a bad thing waiting for me, it’s counterpart is right behind it, and that’s what I truly believe and I hope you can see my point.
June 13th, 2008 08:57
You guys added a lot of commets. Still disgussing the society thing? You could go all day with that! Haha. But its fun to get into deep topics. I like it. But i cant stay long, im going to be hanging out with my mom. Having fun and what not. Talk with you guys later!
June 13th, 2008 09:14
I have a….mental picture for some people. God believers or non.
think of our souls like a vase. Lets call it the Grace Vase (GV). Btw, it is a clear vase. Ok and lest say our sin are rocks. Big ugly rocks. So lets say i lied to my mom cause i didnt want her to no i ripped her dress. Add a rock. So then i tell my mom i am going to my friends and i go to a party. Add a rock. And i keep lieing and lieing and i do a lot of bad stuff. soon the really pretty vase is all dirty and filled with these nasty rocks. Ok so now i have this really big heavy nasty soul on my back. and i have to carry around all those rocks and the guilt. and it hurts. Thats what sin does.
there is another mental thing that was on the internet ill try and find it. It is realy good.
June 13th, 2008 09:20
Ok this is a really good Essay about heaven that a guy, 17, wrote.
http://www.stagnesalumni.org/BriansEssayTheRoom.shtml
June 13th, 2008 09:47
that reminds me of that scene in Bruce Almighty…
June 13th, 2008 09:51
I swear that’s one of the most touching things I’ve ever read.
June 13th, 2008 10:23
Isnt it? It is really sweet and it touched my heart too.
June 13th, 2008 10:35
Wow thats deep
when people ask me if i beleive in god i really say i dont know. because I dont. There are times when I look at the world I’m sure hes real, but others I can only hope, because I don’t know for sure. I’ll tell you somthing. I dont go to church every sunday or even once a month maybe once or twice a year with my whole family for a holiday or other special event. But when I sit there all I can really think is, how do they know this is true. I’ve never really thought of relgion, its not important to me,I have never read the bible I dont know why maybe I’m scared. But I have my beliefs though they arn’t entirerly clear.
My friends are pretty religious though and the one contraversal thing they hate talking about with me is gay marriage, because I support gay marriage and they dont but personaly I like talking about contaversy
June 13th, 2008 10:57
Look, all you non-Christians. If you don’t believe in God, I’m not going to force it on you. I will simply state a point that was given to me by a forward email. So, this it :”A guy went to his hairdresser, and they started talking. They were talking about religion when the hairdresser said that he didn’t believe in God because of all the terribleness in the world. So, the guy getting his hair thought about it and said that he didn’t believe in hairdressers. The hairdresser was astonished and stated the obvious by saying ‘I’m right here’. So the guy said back to him ‘but look out the window at all the people with terrible haircuts. If hairdressers really exsisted, there wouldn’t be that problem’.”. See, the thing is, not everyone comes to God for help, and even if they do, sometimes God wont grant them help because they want it for the wrong reasons, or we need to learn something. I mean, if you were a hairdresser, would you like it if someone came in and said “Give me a haircut or else”? See my point?
June 13th, 2008 11:04
hm that guy that was getting his hair cut sounded kinda mean, i wouldnt want someone saying i didnt exsist.
but of course all the people who have terrible hair cuts CHOOSE to be that way just as they choose to believe in god or not
June 13th, 2008 11:07
The thing is, I refuse to believe that the whole world is an accident. I can’t even believe that they teach us that at school. The thing is, people believe in evolution and people believe in Jesus. Why do they pick to teach evolution in school? They are both different beliefs. One believes in God and one is science. It’s unfair that they make it that way in schools.
June 13th, 2008 11:33
Our world has too many problems. God can fix them. He’s probably yelling at us how to. God has been yelling at me how to. Just he thing is, I’ve kinda ignored Him. I worked on what He told me to do yesterday. The problem is, TIME. But my question is why on earth do we value science more than God. I could have been working on what God told me to do, but instead I had to study. Isn’t this a problem? Isn’t this world messed up?
June 13th, 2008 11:49
we relie on science because we can see and touch it while we cant with god
June 13th, 2008 11:53
But that is because seeing and touching are over-rated. The thing with God is that He touches our spiret and He talks to us through emotions. People relie too much on science. Sure we can see/touch it, but we can’t feel in our soul that it is true. And our souls are who we really are, so it should mean MORE to feel it in our souls rather than our skin.
June 13th, 2008 12:00
Dude. you can’t see and touch science. I don’t want to be a part of this argument (what does God vs. Science have to do with Scott-sama being on TV?), but when’s the last time you touched gravity?
June 13th, 2008 12:03
I know what you mean. But we can see the effects. Just like how we see the EFFECTS of God. See what I mean? And why do you not want to be in this conversation? Everything has everything to do with God. We believe in science and it’s so stupid. I think that the world has definetly regressed. But God is totally real. Read the Bible. That has everything you could possibly need to know.
June 13th, 2008 12:07
Maybe god created science to exsplain eveerything(well not everything but you know what I mean
June 13th, 2008 12:10
Nothing explains everything. NOTHING! Nothing can’t even explain nothing! And NOTHING doesn’t exsist! The thing is, God will explain everything. We just have to wait. For now, we just believe in Him and grow. Growing and sharing are our only jobs here on earth.
June 13th, 2008 12:27
Is anyone here?
June 13th, 2008 12:34
Andrea-la, at my Church they did a skit like the hairdresser scenario. And here is what I have to say (again) Kenzie, I think the reason you’re not sure what you believe, is cuz you admitted that you didn’t go to Church often, you haven’t read the Bible, and I’m not knocking you for it, I’m just saying, do you expect yourself to believe in something that you know virtually nothing about? And I agree with Andrea-la 100%, completely.
June 13th, 2008 12:35
Cool. I really have to go study for exams now. It is hard to believe something about which you know nothing.
June 13th, 2008 12:37
Yep, bye.
June 13th, 2008 12:49
Exam studying is boring. I’m back.
June 13th, 2008 12:53
Okay on the subject of the war….
We went to war to help the Iraqis (sorry about spelling…) because we care about other people in the war. We aren’t gaining land, we’re helping them with their new goverment and protecting them. It’s dangerous, but I’d rather die for complete strangers than live knowing thousands…millions even… are dying and nobody is helping them. They may be from different parts of the world, or believe different things than I do, but people are people, bad choices and all. And I absolutely disagree with the death sentence, whether government believes they should die for what they did or not. (As a Christian, I believe alot like Andrea-la.) God created us in his image, and wants us to be as much like him as we can. God forgives no matter what, and values EVERY LIFE. He forgives no matter what they’ve done. And hanging someone or killing them for something they did is wrong. Anyone have anything to add?
Oh and I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog and all your points on it, Andrea-la. You and I believe many of the same things.
June 13th, 2008 12:53
I believe i know all i need to know about god
I’ve heard stories(for lack of better words) and i just need a solid foundation for my beleive to be full
June 13th, 2008 12:55
I believe that if God thought we needed to know something else He would tell us. The reason so many people don’t believe is that there “is not enough proof”. There isn’t any proof that God doesn’t exsist. You can’t proove that something doesn’t exsist.
June 13th, 2008 12:59

June 13th, 2008 13:27
I am so bad at consintrating on studying. Sure, I can study all day, but when it’s night, and I’ve swam for 2 hours, and been at school all day, all I want to do is relax.
June 13th, 2008 13:28
Ah me too.
Right when i get home i can concentrate, but like an hour after my mind is like a butterfly
June 13th, 2008 13:28
Andrea-la I love your points. And you know what you’re talking about, unlike ppl my age… how old are you? I’m 13, so i know fairly well what i believe. Here’s something I believe- what if God left us all our scientific clues, about how we apparently evolved from monkeys and dinosaurs were here for millions of years, to test us. if we believe in Him even though science and the “thinking” people tell us what science said is true, it shows our dedcation to Him. And many people ask, “If God is so powerful, why doesn’t he just make us believe him instead of sending us to Hell because we don’t believe?” GOD LOVES US. God loves us so much, he gave us CHOICES. We can believe what we want because if we couldn’t, God’s love wouldn’t be true. you know how in movies people let the eprson they love go because they love them and don’t want to strangle them (metaphorically speaking)? That’s what God’s like. If someone doesn’t give you choices, there wouldn’t be so much love.
June 13th, 2008 13:31
I’m only 14, and no one listens to my opinions. I agree with you. But really, I’m a pretty agreeable person. Metephores are nice aren’t they? They are like really short parables.
June 13th, 2008 13:37
Okay so on gay/lesbian marrige…
God created a man and a woman. he created them so, when in intercoarse (trying not to sound…well, you know…) they are one, and in marrige they are also one. When gay/lesbian people are in intercoarse, they cant be one. They are two separate people. I’m also against divorce unless adultry came into the picture, as it says in the Bible. When you marry someone, you become one with the person. Divorce simply legally stops your marrige. It doesn’t split the one. However, if, say, the woman (trying not to say the man, even though that’s normally the case…*stifles a laugh*), “did it” with another man, she apparently managed to become one with another man, yet without her other half. Therefore, the married couple is no longer one and should be split. If a divorce is needed, the two should go to the pastor/priest and confess or do what is needed to gain forgivness. If you dont have a pastor/priest, you should get one or you’ll be in trouble when death comes, as death is unexpected.
June 13th, 2008 13:40
Total AGREENESSNESS!!!
June 13th, 2008 13:43
Andrea-la do you read Brio magazine? It’s like American Girl but for girls our age and is a Christian magazine. I love it, and will continue my subscription as long as I can. Also, I’ve heard of these Christian conferences where non-believers ask some tough questions and believers answer them. You’d be perfect for it. And I’m sure that once I actually READ the Bible and do a little reasearch, I could do well. My brother went from a believer to a nonbeliever, and has a daughter who he had before he was even engaged. Fortuanately, he’s getting married to the mother of his daughter next year. I’m secretly eafraid my younger sister will also stop believing, and my other older brother (who’s younger than the nonbelieving one) is on the verge of non-believing I think. I’m trying as hard as I can, and I’m the hardest form of Chrstianity- Catholic. Yeah, we have some beliefs different from other Chrstians, but I feel exactly the way you do except from a few differences.
Feel free to ask me questions, i gtg to bed bc it’s late
Nitenite!
June 13th, 2008 13:43
And thanks Andrea-la
June 13th, 2008 13:44
BYESES!@!@!@_@!!!!
June 13th, 2008 13:45
I’m so so tierd. The magazine thing sounds so so so cool. It is late. Night!
June 13th, 2008 13:54
Oh I wanted to make a quick point- Scott-la, you’re a non-believer right? Well you’re not gonna ban us from the blog or anything are you? Cause that would SERIOUSLY stink. Okay, i’m good now. Night!
June 13th, 2008 14:44
idk i don’t care bout it if thats what the person wants then they should have it
June 13th, 2008 14:44
but i am againts it
June 13th, 2008 15:35
god doesnt make mistakes so if someone is gay/lesbian they were made that way, they wernt a mistake. Also god wants us to be happy so if its with someone of the same gender so be it. As I’ve heard many times, god will forgive you for anything and it seems he loves you for whoever you are and whatever you’ve done so why cant people accept that to.I had a heated dissusion about this once i researched.
one of my favorite quotes; Will god punish me for loving or you for hating.
(to tell you the truth, i have lesbian aunts and I love them very much)
our highschool is a very supporting highschool for gay/lesbian. they have a gay/straight allience and my sisters french teachers gay.
June 13th, 2008 17:08
Hmmm….on the gay/lesbian topic, personally, I think it’s wrong, but I’m not going to argue with someone about it because I’ve seen it go too far to the point that people have said they are all going to hell because of it and I don’t believe that’s true. If they are believers in God and have a relationship with God they have just as much right as anyone else to get into heaven and I don’t think they’d be discriminated against by God as some think. And on the divorce topic, I totally don’t agree. If circumstances come that you’re no longer happy with that person, that you realize you don’t really belong with that person, and it’s a mutual agreement, then divorce is perfectly fine in my book. Just sometimes it doesn’t work out, you find that you’re not compatible after the marriage and well, that’s that. I don’t think you should have to live your whole life with that mistake hanging over your head. But that’s just what I think. And Emily-la, my friend gets that magazine and I think it rocks and I hope everything works out with your family.
June 13th, 2008 17:17
I used to have to get up at 04:00 every morning. But then I guess that’s one of the great things about being a writer: you never have to show up for an early shift. Anyway, you did good.
P.S. definately right about the creepy cameras…
June 13th, 2008 23:24
I’m off to meet my doom at “school”. Why oh why can I not sleep in? I mean, I have spare first anyway.
June 13th, 2008 23:28
Oh and Kenzie, God doesn’t make mistakes, but PEOPLE do. The people agreed to the marrige, but that doesn’t mean that God agrees with them.
June 14th, 2008 02:28
wow, i dont go on for 3 days and theres like 200 more comments. I dont know if i believe in God or not. Like i go to church about twice a year, but i go to religous school and im making my confirmation next year. So i guess i do believe in God, i read this series (Christy Miller series) and it was like focused about how this one girl gives her life to God. After that i totally believed in God, but that like faded as i read new books. You see, books influence what i think, like i really wanted to be a wizard after i finished Harry Potter, and i really wanted the Olympian gods to be real after i read Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I could talk about my how i am connected to books for hours. But, back to the subject of war, i think a country should only get involved if something terrible is going on. Like we finished studying genocide a month ago, and the world never stepped in to help, until it was almnost over. And the world keeps saying never again, and now, look whats happening in Darfur! The world is getting ahead of itself. In some ways, i think that we were smarter when we were hunter/gatherers and such. We came up with new ways to get things we need, instead of just walking to the store across the street. We learned how to build water systems and all the things that we take advantage of today.
on a different note, SUMMER VACATION!!! No more school!!!! You know how i was talking about that ice cream that we had that had 48 scoops?? Well this one girl who nobody likes, diana, first of alll she invited herself to come with us, and then she needed a ride home, AND she was sick and didnt tell us til after eatiing it, so now all of us are sick, thanks to her!!! my throat kills and i had a TERRIBLE headache last night thanks to all the screaming when we played the love game at a birthday party. ANd i have a stuffy nose, so much for a great start to the summer.
June 14th, 2008 02:38
eek! test time! eek! hopefully i’ll pass. eek! nervousness. eek!
June 14th, 2008 03:04
Who is this nick person… All he writes is your gay…
June 14th, 2008 03:36
Okay, Andrea-la I have a couple questions: Where did you get yor website, and did you have to pay extra to have it so that the url is whatever you want (i.e. it isn’t like freewebs.com/blahblahblah…)??? I think I might start a blog thing, hopefully there we can continue our christianity/war/other belief stuff there. I love talking about those topics with people, i don’t know why it’s just so interesting to me. And Im sure scott-la would like us to talk about things even slightly relevent to his blog entry here… lol.
RAWR RAWR RAWR. I was writing a story in this notebook that I left on the floor, and when we moved and my mom was packing she put it in a box. I don’t know what box. SHE doesn’t know what box. She says she remembers putting it in a box. I was only like three chapters into the story but I want that notebook lol. I really feel like writing and we CANT FIND THE STUPID NOTEBOOK @_@!!!
June 14th, 2008 03:38
I agree with Andrea-la. And T&Z, I’m happy to say that my family has only two divorced people, and at least one of them did what i told you about and went to the church about it for forgivness. I find it sad that almost EVERY SINGLE ONE of my friends is in a divorced family, my best friend has parents and both grandparents divorced. She admitted she hates it, too.
June 14th, 2008 03:48
Oh, and it’s my mom’s brother and sister, not immediate family. If you’re going to make the choice of marrige, you should be sure they’re who you want to spend the rest of your life with.
June 14th, 2008 04:28
okay, freezing a Milky Way candy bar in the freezer for almost 24 hours may seem like a cool treat at the time, but DON’T. It took like a half hour to thaw, and was pretty hard to eat O_o. But yet it was fun. lol.
June 14th, 2008 04:30
Wow I’m 15 hours behind of scott-la. Actually, it’s winter in Aussieland. So he’s here, in America and on eastern time like me. Therefore, scott-la might be eating lunch at this very moment!!!!
June 14th, 2008 04:30
On the other hand, 1:30 for lunch seems a little late. But who knows?
June 14th, 2008 05:04
OK. Here is a further explanation of why, for me, awful stuff means I’m a nonbeliever.
It’s not just global awful stuff. It’s personal. I’m the kind of person who needs a lot of emotional support. My parents know that. Yet they don’t provide it. (”How old are you? Fourteen? Because you’re acting like a two-year-old!” This is my mom whenever I cry.) Sometimes they’re even mean to me. Like, really mean. In the past week alone, my dad has called me a brat, a b****, and a freak. My mom’s called me a brat, a jerk, and a freak. The only reason my mom hasn’t hit me with my hairbrush is because I’ve hidden it. They’ve done this stuff for quite a while now. When I was younger and still believed, I’d pray for hours on end, asking God to please somehow turn my parents into nice people. He never did. I tried praying for nicer parents, being taken away from my family by Child Services, or somehow having our family return to our pre-Hinsdale happiness. (Hinsdale is a very rich town where we are not financially equal to the other citizens, making me a total outcast and my parents stressed. We used to live in Oak Lawn, where we were actually one of the richer families.) None of my prayers ever happened. For years I’d pray, then cry myself to sleep, but my life continued to suck. My belief gradually waned until, now, I don’t believe in God at all.
And it’s not like I never have exposure to religion. My parents are Presbytarian and are trying to convince me that I am too, so they drag me every Sunday to church and Fridays once a month to the teen program. I’ve read the Bible all the way through more than once. Religion is a frequent topic at my lunch table. None of this can convince me that there is a God Almighty, maker of Heaven and Earth.
I know there are lots of stories about people in less-than-desirable situations whose belief only solidifies, but those people are all strong inside. I’m not. I’m very weak emotionally, and every time something hurts me, I only become weaker.
And, Tally & Zane, you asked me whether I have a mind separate from my brain just because I can’t see it? Maybe I don’t. I think “mind” is just a term for the part of your brain in charge of thinking.
June 14th, 2008 05:42
Oh, and Emily-wa? To answer your question for Andrea-La:
You can get a blog for free at multiple places. Some common ones are WordPress (www.wordpress.com – that’s what I use) and Blogger (www.blogger.com – that’s what Andrea-La uses). Good luck.
June 14th, 2008 05:47
Amy, I want to let you know I’m praying for you. And you should also know that you have to help God to get your prayers answers. God answers every prayer. Here’s a summary of a skit I saw that might help.
A man lived in a city surround by water. One day, a storm came. The water raised higher and higher, flooding the town quickly. The man prayed to God, “Please, Lord, save me from this flood!”
A police officer came knocking on the door. “You need to get out, the flood is getting worse.”
“No, I’m waiting for God to help me,” the man replied, and closed the door. He saw water coming through into the house and climbed to the second sotry of his house as the water rose to cover the front door. He went to a room with a window and say some large boats full of people. One of the boats came by and knocked on the window. The man opened it, and the leader in the boat said to the man, “Come on the boat with us. We are all going to a nearby town where there is no flooding!”
“No, I’m waiting for God. he’ll come rescue me,” the man replied, and shut the window as he saw the water rising and flooding in. he climbed out the window and onto the roof, waiting for God to save him. Another boat came by and offered to rescue him, but again the man declined and said that God would save him. As the water rose, the man could go no higher and drowned. When he went to meet God, he asked him, “Lord, why didn’t you save me? I prayed to you and yet you allowed me to die!”
“I did try to help you. I was the police officer who went to your door, and I was both of the men in the boats fofering to take you to safety. You declined after I offered you help.”
I think this is your situation Amy. And if your parents are doing any harm to you, report it. God isn’t going to just make your parents disappear- you have to help him. He’ll be the social worker who helps you, or the friend you need to get through this.

rawrness.
June 14th, 2008 06:42
That was really good advie, emily-wa. i really want to get a blog but if i do im afraid my dad might find it in the adress bar and well… you all know what would happen next. I am soo stressed. I am leaving for Michigan sunday and i have SOOOO much to do. Its a good thing schools out or i would DIE!!!! Today i have to finish packing, it looks like 100 bombs went of in my room, work on my friends gat mitzvah scrapbook, and get my digital camera. Tomorrow i have to go to my friends service, then leave as soon as it ends to go late to a bar mitzva, and then i have like 3 hours until my friends party. And on sunday i have a violin lesson and then i have to drive 5 hours to michigan. And on top of that i am sick, you all know the story. Ughhh! Who knew the start of the summer good be so stressful?
Amy, if i prayed to God a lot then i would be praying for you right now.
I just remembered of a really sad book/series by David Pulman that i read. It is A child called “IT”, The Lost Boy, and A Man Named Dave. It is about how the author was abused as a child and he was finally taken away from his mother and how we went through living with many foster families, how his dad, the only one who cared about him, died, and then how he broke the chain of abuse. It is sooo sad and i almost cried at some parts.
June 14th, 2008 06:50
r u still on emily-wa? cus i really need an excuse not to go pack, plus im bored
June 14th, 2008 06:56
sorry Tara-la
just got on, guess you’re not anymore though…
June 14th, 2008 06:58
I’d thank you guys for praying for me if I thought it would do any good.
Emily-wa, I would turn my parents in if I had any proof. On the surface, we look like the most functional family ever. We go on vacation every summer (pure torture for me), my parents come to all my school events, etc. They even maintain a facade that I’m the messed-up one and have subjected me to various forms of torturous therapy over the years (needles in arms, people measuring my brainwaves, succeeding only in giving me headaches and messing up my hair, people touching me weirdly and saying it’s going to help me, people forcing me to face my worst fears, and a bunch of others I can’t name). I’ve told all my friends at school about my parents. They don’t believe me. I’ve told school social workers. They don’t believe me, either. I’ve even tried telling the police after I delayed coming home one day because my mom had told me I had to call the doctor and say, “I’m a freak because I won’t turn the lights on early in the morning. Can I make an appointment?” and that I had to pay for the appointment she was forcing me to make. When I delayed coming home, my parents called the police and when they asked me why I hadn’t come home, I tried to explain. They didn’t believe me and said I had to go to counseling.
So you see, I’ve tried praying. I’ve tried taking care of it by myself. No luck. No God.
June 14th, 2008 07:09
Amy, if what you’re saying is true then you need some patience is all. I promise, things will get better if you keep trying, praying, and believing. I cant even imagine going through all that, and I honestly can say that i hope you find your way back to God. And there is something wrong with the police if they wont do anything to help someone who’s reporting abuse. Have you talked to a school councerlor about this? Their JOB is to help you, and they’ll believe you, I’m sure.
I believe you, and would do whatever I could if I could to help you.
June 14th, 2008 07:14
me too. my computer froze and then unfroze and then froze all over again. are you guys still on? im sry if you are and i dont answer, it might freeze again
June 14th, 2008 07:17
*sighs* I’m going to say this and use my little friend I like to call Caps lock but just know I’m not trying to be mean at all. LIFE SUCKS LIKE FREAKING MONKEY CRAP SOMETIMES, NO ACTUALLY A LOT OF TIMES, AND SOME WITH THE INSIGHT TO IT MIGHT GO AS FAR AS SAYING MOST OF THE TIME. ITS JUST HOW IT IS, AND YOU SAY THAT YOU’RE A PERSON THAT NEEDS EMOTIONAL SUPPORT, WELL HUN, OPEN YOUR EYES PLEASE CUZ WE’RE TRYING TO GIVE IT TO YOU RIGHT NOW. IT MIGHT NOT BE IN THE FORM YOU EXPECTED OR WANTED, HECK WE DON’T EVEN KNOW YOU, BUT FROM WHAT YOU TOLD US, IT DOESN’T SOUND LIKE YOU’RE A BAD PERSON AT ALL, AND YOU DON’T DESERVE THE CRAP THAT’S GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE, NOT ONE BIT, BUT SEEING AS I’M GONNA BELIEVE YOU’RE A GOOD PERSON IT’S NOT GONNA BE FAIR WHEN SOMETHING REALLY BAD HAPPENS AND SAY YOU PASS AWAY, AND YOU TURNED AWAY FROM GOD, IT WON’T BE RIGHT THAT IT HAPPENED JUST CUZ OF OTHER PEOPLE’S MISTAKES WITH YOUR LIFE. AND YOU’LL HAVE THE CHANCE TO CHANGE THE THINGS GOING ON, THERE WILL BE A WAY. RIGHT NOW IT’S PROBABLY NOT VERY CLEAR TO YOU WHAT THAT WAY IS, BUT IT WILL BE ONCE YOU STEP UP AND TAKE IT. That’s it. No one can force you to believe anything, it’s your own choice, it’s a personal choice and nobody should pressure you. I hope once you choose, if you haven’t already that you’re happy with your choice, and reflect on it, you can always change your mind before it’s too late.
June 14th, 2008 07:24
that was um… very interesting TZ. Life isnt fair, but we have to live with it. Like how somebody *cough*diana*cough* has the nerve to eat a shared ice cream when shes sick and get everyone else sick. Being sick sucks so fricken much
June 14th, 2008 07:29
I have to go and think about what people have said… including Tally & Zane’s friend Caps Lock. I will think of something to say about all of the opinions and I’ll be back tomorrow to say it… since my mom’s hand is about two feet from the plug of the computer.
June 14th, 2008 07:42
I agree with TZ, and apologize if i’m one of the poeple/the person who has been pressuring people to change. Amy-la should listen to TZ for sure- what she said is completely true.
June 14th, 2008 07:46
Oh, I wasn’t pointing out anyone Emily-wa, just getting that fact out there.
June 14th, 2008 07:49
lol I thought so, just making sure
June 14th, 2008 07:51
You know what scott-la needs to do? He needs to make a page of pictures that we can copy/save and use for gmail, facebook, myspace, etc…
I’m trying to find a picture that has to do with scott-la and is square- rectangular doens’t fit

If they didnt plz tell me how to do it
June 14th, 2008 08:33
it’s
June 14th, 2008 08:33
: mrgreen : but without the spaces between the colons.
June 14th, 2008 08:34
crap it my mom says she wants to see the blog and such before I can seriously use it -.-
June 14th, 2008 08:38
ah well. I probably should have waited to put my ranting about shorts….
wish me luckyness!!!
June 14th, 2008 08:43
“Note my puffy hair. At the very last second—literally as behind-the-camera guy was counting down with his fingers—I reached up and puffed my hair. What was I thinking?”
For some reason I find that so hilarious.
That summary was indeed hyper-distilled! And I couldn’t agree more: the more people are reading it, the better a book gets. One of my favorite things to do (especially while reading a Westerfeld book) is discuss it with my book friends. When no one else knows what you’re talking about, it’s like your own personal bubble of literary awesomeness.
And there’s nothing better than an inside joke about hoverboards and SpagBol!
June 14th, 2008 08:44
My mom doesn’t know about my blog. I haven’t told her because the only reason I have a blog is that I can type way faster than write.
June 14th, 2008 08:44
inside joke? I must have missed that…
June 14th, 2008 08:47
haha nice Andrea-la
I tried to not tell my mom about something like a myspace I had, and i knew I wasn’t supposed to have it so i didn’t tell her.
my evil sister told her and i was grounded. I was then mad at myself more than mom and dad- i knew i wasn’t supposed to have it, and i though (and still think) myspace stuff is stupid and just a way for some homocidal maniac to staulk you and rape and/or kill you. But hey, whatever, if you want to do all that just so people can know you’re alive, fine.
June 14th, 2008 08:47
I don’t get inside jokes. Never have, never will. I sometimes don’t even get regulare jokes.
June 14th, 2008 08:48
Emily-wa, I’m sending you an email. Be sure to answer!
June 14th, 2008 08:48
Haha. I couldn’t hear the talking very well, so i’m going to go watch it again.
WOOT, my dad’s birthday is on father’s day this year, and we’re going to visit family over the weekend, so my dad brought home CRAB LEGS for dinner!!!
Woot!
June 14th, 2008 08:51
Cool. This weekend I’m studying for exams til my head explodes, because if/when it explodes, I wont have to actually take exams because I’ll be in a mental hospital.
June 14th, 2008 09:02
haha, nice plan. I’m out of school, so I don’t have to study or even use the summer reading list my old school gave me (remember I moved and am going to a new school… hehe)
June 14th, 2008 09:04
Lucky you. I don’t get a summer reading list from my school, so I don’t need to worry about that. All I need to worry about is exams.
June 14th, 2008 09:08
i am just wondering but do you guys ever get scared that some creepy guy/girl will see your blog or find your email adress and try to track you or something? i have always been scared about stuff like that.
June 14th, 2008 09:12
Oh, I don’t give out info like that. The most I’ve ever given out was on here you know my name, friend’s names and i said I was in KY. Oh yea, that’s really a staulkable thing
As for email, i dont really have personal stuff on there. I think I may have had a gmail picture of me, but i probably only let friends see it, and I’ve seen almost all of my gmail friends face-to-face. So i’m covered
June 14th, 2008 09:14
I don’t even give out my email. (usually) Also, who on earth would want to track ME? You know, other than the guys in the white clokes who think I’m insane because of my obvious facination with the metiphores of quotation marks.
June 14th, 2008 09:15
haha, good point Andrea-la.
June 14th, 2008 09:20
Yeah but it is still scary to know people would do that.
June 14th, 2008 09:55
But not everyone does that.
June 14th, 2008 09:58
like andrea-la says- people tend to worry about it too much. And Bran-la, if your so self-councious about, you’ve been giving out too much info.
June 14th, 2008 10:03
It’s good to be slightly worried. But worry is a stupid way of dealing with stupid problems.
June 14th, 2008 10:26
i gtg. my dad is opening his gift (a Zune MP3 player!) and cards.
byes!
June 14th, 2008 10:28
Byes
June 14th, 2008 10:52
No im not overly worried about it. I just was asking cause some of yall were giving out your email and aim name. I just wondered if anyone ever got worried. But yeah, your right, its not good to get too worried about it.
I am bored…what shall i do?
June 14th, 2008 11:07
I just watched kung fu panda and I now know how to blow you all up using my pinky finger. *nods with wisdom of the big eared sensei* Fear the rath of thine pinky of doom.
June 14th, 2008 11:31

wow, u must be REALLY bored. I finished the scrapbook (finally). The only place i give out info about me is here, and thats cus its fun to compare things and talk about the same things with other book addicts (that sounds well… you know). I am so tired. But i dont wanna go to bed. I want to read. And talk on here when other people are ON. And OWWWWWWW!!! I just cracked my arm!! The pain! It burnnnnnsssssssss!!!!! OWWW! again! Brain freeze! Tooth freeze! (im eating ice). Wow, ii am so lame, i get hurt while typing something on the computer. Lame *said with singingish voice*

Yes be afraid, very afraid of thy grand and wonderful pinky! Muaha! No I’m jking, I wouldn’t unleash that kinda power upon you it would be rude! Plus I’d have to clean up the mess!
June 14th, 2008 13:59
it turns out i didnt end up going on webkinz, i read twilight instead. now im “cleaning up the computer area”. i’se gonna go read mores
talk to ya later
June 14th, 2008 14:31
So tierd. I just babysat two kids who didn’t want to go to bed.
June 15th, 2008 00:28
Is anyone here? Or is everyone sleeping like they should be?
June 15th, 2008 01:43
i wonder what time you posted that andrea-la (in my time)
i dont get why people but question marks at the end of an “i wonder” you’re not asking a queston, just stating something you’d like to know. I mean if question marks could talk they wouldnt be very happy about that. Its like putting me as the quarterback when i have NO CLUE how to play football, im more of the gymnastics type. If that was you, you wouldnt be very happy about that. So question marks wouldnt either.
Wow, im starting to sound like you Andrea-La
June 15th, 2008 01:44
that was over an hour ago, im gessing you are not on. Its 9:45 am here
June 15th, 2008 01:46
It’s 9:45 here too!
June 15th, 2008 01:47
I like the phrase “i wonder”. It really makes you wonder. I can’t do gymnastics or football. I’m the swimming type. Question marks should always be happy. It’s the answers that I pitty, for they never know the question.
June 15th, 2008 01:48
For a question is like a quest. And you can’t just skip to the end, because then it makes no sense and it toally sucks, therefore the question is lucky and the answer is not.
June 15th, 2008 01:52
when i am on uglies questions you are one here! And now its probably the opposite. i totally agree with you. The answer may not always be what you want. But the question can be whatever
June 15th, 2008 01:56
The question is awsome. The answer is pointless. I love questions. They are so cool. Life would suck if people got what they want and had all their quesitons answered. YAY for unanswered questions.
June 15th, 2008 02:00
YAY!!!!!!! Ugh i have a cold. stupid diana girl
June 15th, 2008 02:00
Cold? I have one too! Exams are coming, so that is a bad thing.
June 15th, 2008 02:41
Is anyone here??
June 15th, 2008 02:42
Omg i use to always get on Webkinz. I have like 11 of them. But i dont even play it any more. I stopped about….4 to 5 monthes ago. Haha. But i think my account expires next month.
June 15th, 2008 03:00
Webkinz? I don’t play that. I don’t have one. Exams are driving me insane(as in more insane than I was already)
June 15th, 2008 03:08
Regarding Tally & Zane’s friend Caps Lock:
I’m glad that you think I’m a good person. Sometimes I’m not. But, just to let you know, I do get more emotional support from people here than I do anywhere else. I really hope you’re right about there being a way to change my life.
Yesterday, after my mom pulled the plug on the computer, I went to the library and started doing research. Here’s what I found out: What my parents are doing to me has a name – emotional abuse. The specific category (where they don’t support me when I need it) is emotional neglect. When angry, they also insult me and sometimes physically abuse me. Here’s what I’m going to do so that I have proof: I’m going to keep a daily journal of what my parents do to me that upsets me and hurts me inside. Hopefully, a journal will be proof enough to present to people like friends, the school counselor, and the police that I’ve informed of my situation before and who didn’t believe me. Wish me luck.
June 15th, 2008 03:11
Good luck, but you wont need luck. I’ve been praying for you, and that should be valued above “luck”
June 15th, 2008 03:37
Anyone on?
June 15th, 2008 03:42
Yep, same here. Excuse me while I go scream because I was woken up(again) by freaking pounding of nails cuz my neighbors are getting a new roof put in. And they’re working right across from my window. I don’t think nails like to be pounded on so harshly by hammers. Well newsflash, I don’t like to hear it while I’m sleeping!See Amy? I’m not a very good person in the morning, I’m grouchy and irritable and I admit it. Nobody can be a good person ALL the time.
June 15th, 2008 03:44
I know that a LOT. I’m hardly ever a good person. I can be sometimes, or maybe I’m just too critical. I’d go as far to say that I’m never a good person. I lie, I get mad, and I ocassionally act nothing like myself. There are some major flaws in the acorn theory.
June 15th, 2008 03:47
switch ocassionally to often
June 15th, 2008 03:49
there are major flaws in everything
June 15th, 2008 03:50
Too bad. Maybe we should try to fix those flaws. But man’s greatist imperfection is attempting perfection.
June 15th, 2008 03:51
sometimes flaws make things better
June 15th, 2008 03:53
Yeah. But only to an extent. But as a reader, I have to say that conflict is good. But also, conflict is bad. Which is it?
June 15th, 2008 03:54
I do not want to be awake right now. Yeah, I know it’s like 10:00 but I got like 5 hours of sleep last night and like 3 hours the night before so I’m TIRED. And I’m gonna count that as a flaw. I’ll put it on my EXTREMELY long list….if I can find the bottom….
June 15th, 2008 03:55
Funny. But you can live without sleep. But is it possible to live without God?
June 15th, 2008 03:58
It’s sort of a mind thing, it’s your perspective against it, like in say Pretties. When Zane(*cries*) took the pill he got really sick like medicine eating your brain sick. for lack of better explanation while I’m still waking up. Okay so that’s conflict, if you liked Zane like somebody I know *cough* me *cough* then that’s BAD conflict. If you didn’t like Zane then that’s I guess Good conflict.
June 15th, 2008 03:59
anythings possible
June 15th, 2008 04:00
No it’s not possible to live without God. but if you actually stop sleeping for a certain amount of time….can’t remember how long, but it’s a pretty long time….then you die. But you either have to be like really really dumb or have a SERIOUS sleeping disorder for that….
June 15th, 2008 04:01
I like change. But is that good? Also, I think it is not possible to live without God. Even if you say that you don’t believe in anything, I think you really do. Somewhere, deep down in your roots of your oak tree.
June 15th, 2008 04:02
Oh…and I’m not so sure I can live without sleep cuz like I said I get a *little* cranky after a while and I think my family would kill me off, like shove me through a wood chipper or something…
June 15th, 2008 04:02
I believe in alot
just not all of them work in unison with eachother
does that make sense
June 15th, 2008 04:05
(^that was sarcasm up there) and that’s true, we were talking about something along the lines of that in our Church group the other day. There was a question about like what happens to the people in the amazons and tribes and that kinda stuff? They’ve never heard of God, so do they go to Heaven automatically? Or do they go to Hell? There was a whole little debatey thing on it.
June 15th, 2008 04:06
funny(more coincadence) my cousin from arkansas just posted this bulletin on myspace my family down theres religious
(oh btw i dont repost any bulletins nomatter what they say)
just think bout it..
why do we ((sleep)) in [[school]]
but stay ((awake)) through a [[2 hour movie]]
why is it so ((hard)) to talk about [[GOD]]
but so ((easy)) to talk about [[sex]]?
why are we so ((bored)) when we look at a [[christian magazine]]
but find it ((easy)) to read [[playboy]]?
why is it so easy to ((ignore)) a [[GODLY]]bebo bulletin
yet we ((repost)) the [[nasty]] ones?
why are ((churches)) getting [[smaller]]
but ((bars and clubs)) are [[expanding]]?
why is it so easy to purchase {beer} and {drugs}
but so hard to donate 25 cents to a {charity}?
why is it so easy to worship a {celebrity}
but very difficult to engage with {GOD}?
think about it, are you reposting this?
are you going to ignore it, cause you think you’ll get laughed at?
repost this as “dont read if ur immature; seriously”
80% of you won’t repost this.
June 15th, 2008 04:09
Look, the fact that we are talking about God here, kinda puts all that to shame.
June 15th, 2008 04:13
But the bulletin is right
i didnt repost it, and im sure many didnt
but that desnt mean they dont believe in god
ive seen alot of bulletins like this one
some better than this one
June 15th, 2008 04:14
But you did repost it. You reposted it here. I think that counts.
June 15th, 2008 04:16
kinda
but for different reasons
June 15th, 2008 04:17
You reposted it. And you said that you believe in God. That counts. And it is right, it’s hard to talk about God. I find it far easier to write about Him.
June 15th, 2008 04:21
god is a delicate subject
but even if you dont beleive in him you still can go to heaven
because, if you go to hell you still wont accept god
because he gave us choices, and im sure he doesnt exspect everyone to think the same in him, or any contraversal subject
June 15th, 2008 04:21
Mhmm
June 15th, 2008 04:22
Whoah, uh wait a sec, that Mhmm is for Andrea-la’s post cuz I don’t agree with that last one Kenz
June 15th, 2008 04:24
you just reminded me of one of my favorite songs
when i was little it was my fav although its so sad
its prolly one of the reasons i beleive in god
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRriDcrU7-Q&feature=related
notice: its about child abuse and a country song
June 15th, 2008 04:27
I agree with Kenzie. Everyone thinks of God differently. I like to think of Him as a guidence counsoler of sorts and also friend. Or I’d like to quote the Lion the Witch and the Wardrob and say”He’s not a tame Lion, but He is a good one”.
June 15th, 2008 04:28
HEY! i just watched that movie yesterday!
June 15th, 2008 04:31
Cool! Yesterday I watch the Lion King. What is it with me and lions lately?
June 15th, 2008 04:31
Yeah, I just meant personally that’s not how I see it sort of, but I know He’s seen differently. And Kenzie, my Mom used to play that song all the time, I like it but it is sad. That’s an awesome quote too, C.S. Lewis = great with words.
June 15th, 2008 04:32
Hmmm…I watched Kung fu Panda yesterday and then I had nothing to do so I watched Jumper.
June 15th, 2008 04:33
Sad is good. I really admire C.S. Lewis or anyone really who has a way with words. I’d like to think I did, but I would prefer not to lie to myself.
June 15th, 2008 04:41
the wierd thing is
im the less religious person in my groupso i also think that benefits to me believeing
June 15th, 2008 04:42
I think that I act more religious here on the computer than in reality. It’s sad. I’m trying to begin to work on that.
June 15th, 2008 04:44
same here
though i dont tink im that religious on here either
June 15th, 2008 04:56
The problem is that everyone’s roots are underground and go unseen until a crisis. Then they are are shown, but really, we should be able to show our roots now, not later.
June 15th, 2008 05:45
Andrea-la, it wouldn’t be lieing to yourself you really are good with words. Speaking of words, I don’t think this as much to do with this conversation, but can I get some input on this poem?
Up is only up
when down is down,
but when I think of soaring,
twirling, whirling,
leaving this place for a better good,
it turns my whole world around,
to where the two opposites don’t agree,
they counter act angrily,
leaving a thunderous treachery,
leaving what’s left, left for me.
But no, no more I will think of such things.
I won’t dream, I won’t imagine, never again will I.
For now my eyes are open,
I look across the vast expansion,
seeing far and seeing wide,
but for now as the time it may be,
I look away from that and see close and near,
see me, to the real, real.
So no, not again will I ponder my time so frivolously,
now instead of saying, dreaming, thinking…
I just will.
I will.
June 15th, 2008 05:59
That was so totally swimtastical that I might need to make up a word for it.
June 15th, 2008 06:06
Thanks, I want to be a writer. It’s my passion, that and painting.
June 15th, 2008 06:20
Coolity. I’d like to be a writer. I’ll post my poeme on my blog in a couple minutes…
June 15th, 2008 06:23
Cool, I’ve got tons more but I’m not gonna post em, don’t have time.
June 15th, 2008 06:28
I know what you mean.
June 15th, 2008 06:47
I posted one of my favorite poems that I wrote on my blog. Click to read! Also, please comment with advice.
June 15th, 2008 07:08
I’m not a big poetry buff
though I do have some favs
they’re still nice
i really like em’
June 15th, 2008 07:14
I love poetry, to an extent. I like writing it and reading it. But only if it is lined up with my mood.
June 15th, 2008 07:27
the only poetry books is a small collencions of three books of poems made by a little boy with cancer (i think dont remember well) I got them from one of my mums friends
June 15th, 2008 07:29
cool. I wonder how you open a metiphorical door? With a metiphorical key prehaps? Or is it a metiphorical push door that people tend to pull on? Hmmmmmmmm.
June 15th, 2008 07:31
*Rainy Day*
The rain dribbles,
a musical song
a whole orchestra of music
The thunder applauds it
The lightning takes it’s picture
Some people love the summers’ rays,
But I prefer a rainy day
The rain falls on my face
It washes my tears
It cleans my hands
It smells of new
New life
And new happiness
Some people adore the summers’ rays,
But I prefer a rainy day
The wind thrashes the trees
Showing it’s freedom
While it destroys
But if life isn’t destroyed,
It will never be new,
And always be old
Some people enjoy the summer’s rays,
But I prefer a rainy day
The lightning flashes
It takes our picture
To presurve the moment
The moment of new life
Fresh starts
The beginning of freeom
Some people wait for the summers’ rays,
But I prefer a rainy day
People stare at me
The think it odd of me to like the rain
They say I’ll get wet
I say that they wont
Both are statements of fact
And therefore mean nothing
Some people like the summers’ rays,
But I prefer a rainy day
Most people say that rain is sad
I dont
The rain is clensing
The rain is pure
The rain is perfect
How can it be depressing?
Some people prefer the summers’ rays,
But I just love a rainy day.
June 15th, 2008 07:31
Hope you like it!
June 15th, 2008 07:54
I’m practicing jazz soloing on my clarinet. So FUN!!!
June 15th, 2008 08:37
I don’t like it, I love it. The picture it paints in my head is just wonderful! Here’s another one, I wrote this a couple months ago I think….
The Weak and Strong
Have you any soul?
Any Mind?
Any Heart?
Think of life not as it
was, is, or always will be.
Think of life as it could be,
as it should be.
Power divine, strengthens the
weak, weakens the strong, and
teaches the meek.
To love living, is not as simple a
task as is to fear death. But in a
world thought of as worse than any
Hell, why should we fear so?
To desire answers is our true nature,
to want, to need, is how we are.
But who are we to ask of such
grand things?
So many questions best left unaswered,
for with knowledge comes power, for what
would we use this power, except for destroying
what is already here, and what shall come to be?
Horrid, wretched souls are we, for deeds undone,
for time unspent, for lives left for the taking, with
no expense.
To breathe your last breath is magic unto itself,
for to do so means you were given the gift of
breathing your first, at a time almost forgotten,
a time thought of as unimportant.
A Many insignificant things are the grandest
of them all. But look unto your heart, to the
deepest depths of your soul, look, find, and
soar through the chaos. Soar.
June 15th, 2008 08:42
EEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it sooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!! Total complete love. LOVE I say, LOVE!!!!!!!!!!
June 15th, 2008 08:43
I’m in a good mood anyway. I played colonel bogey four times in a row on my clarinet and no one told me to shut up!
June 15th, 2008 08:46
make that 5 times.
June 15th, 2008 08:47
That’s cool, I used to play clarinet. I still know how, but I’m clarinetless.
Here’s another Two, I think the last ones I’ll put up for a while:
Woe the dillema,
always at hand,
a catharsis of feelings,
sinking into the sand,
Always the time,
of never quite right,
watching the clock,
for the instant come,
but intensity claim thee,
of never will,
of destiny,
of the oddity come rare,
the All-mighty kingdom,
shan’t turn you down,
woe the day that crisis come strike,
were that to be so,
to wait for each breath you take,
to inhale the proximity,
of how close to this now,
Hail come pouring,
answer me be,
to sing the paean,
of here to now,
be seen,
of finality,
woe not the dillima,
celebrate thine concurrence,
with world of time be sound,
of safe and security,
the way of that is for initially
be that, infinite always.
____________________________________________________
She dost not feel a thing.
That’s the way she wants it too.
Without feeling, there is no hurt or sorrow,
and when there’s not a soul who cares about you,
maybe that’s how it should be, how it was meant to be.
Oh, but someone does care, he watches over her.
She walks along a small dirt road.
It’s a bumpy road, the road that leads to the beginning of the end of her life.
She’ll leave this pitiful world, leave it for the better.
There’s nothing left for her here.
She doesn’t deserve this kind of Hell.
She’s getting tired, the weaker she gets, the closer she is.
She lays her head down, just a little rest.
That’s all I need, she thinks.
Her eyelids flutter to a close, she won’t open those pretty blue pools again.
Now she walks down a new road. A road paved in gold, she holds the hand of a man with a gentle knowing look in his eye.
The shepherd leads the lamb away from the Hades called Earth. Away from the pain and the hurt and the sorrow.
Because that’s how it should be, how it’s meant to be.
The years go by, she feels again. She is filled with joy for once. Before, a foreign word to her.
But now, it’s how it was meant to be.

I wrote that one for a funeral of a friend ^
June 15th, 2008 08:51
That was so beautiful. Almost crying here! I could never ever write anything that good, pure, and perfect.
June 15th, 2008 08:51
Also, I’m one time number 7!
June 15th, 2008 08:54
My lip hurts from too much Colonel Bogey. Thumb is in pain too. I guess I’ll have to stop.
June 15th, 2008 08:55
*blushes* Really? My Mum says they’re really good but, she’s my Mom, she has to say that….so I don’t really know….Hopefully, one day I’ll be able to get some published. That’s my dream! LoL, but you’re really talented too, so I think you’re exaggerating by saying you couldn’t do something like it…
June 15th, 2008 08:57
Thanks, but really, I can only write if I really feel like it. I would rather write a book though. I’ve written a few story-poems though. You really really really are that good. You really could get them published. Go get them published. You totally could.
June 15th, 2008 09:00
Well, I’m working on it. Takes an awfully long time to even get them looked at by publishers especially when you’re as young as me, they don’t seem to take you as serious. *shrugs* I’ll show em I can be serious. Anywho…I’ve been working on a novel too the last couple of months, I’ve got a little over 100 pages written so far, not sure exactly how long it’s going to be though…
June 15th, 2008 09:03
Yeah…I have a really hard time finding time, so I’m only on like page 50 or so. Also, I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so…………yeah. I’m younge too, but my teachers always acknowledge that I’m good, so maybe one day……….Why on earth should age matter anyway?
June 15th, 2008 09:11
I have no clue. I think of age as a subject of mind over matter, if you don’t mind, then it doesn’t matter. But apparently the publishers mind. But yeah, when I say 100 pages, I mean totally unedited pages full of mistakes cuz I just had to get the idea down, I have to go back and edit them once I get time and decide that I’m not lazy anymore. Was it you that said you were 14?
June 15th, 2008 09:16
yeah. How old are you?
June 15th, 2008 09:20
thirteen
June 15th, 2008 09:20
cool. Almost same age. What grade are you going into?
June 15th, 2008 09:21
I’ll be a freshman.
June 15th, 2008 09:22
As in what grade??? I don’t speak american!
June 15th, 2008 09:24
Oh, yeah sorry lol. 9th grade.
June 15th, 2008 09:25
Same here! It’s going to be so swimtastical!
June 15th, 2008 09:27
Yep, what classes are you taking? Do you call electives, electives in canada?
June 15th, 2008 09:29
At my school we call them Options, but whatever. I get what you mean. We have core and then for “electives” I’m taking band, choice, and digital pics. You?
June 15th, 2008 09:36
wait a second. Just proofreading my own comment. Choice=choir.
June 15th, 2008 09:36
We have core too, and then we get three electives but for one of them I have to take the freshman mini courses(health, tech, careers&goals) And for my other two electives I’m taking Spanish 2 and Honors Biology, I figured I’d get my science out of the way so next year I can take art and I’m gonna take french 1 and I’ll have to take another science. You have to take 2 years science and 2 years history.
June 15th, 2008 09:38
This doesn’t make any sense to me, but oh well. Our options are only band, choir, art, nutrition, electronics, wood working, digital pics, typing. So, your is kinda different. French is required til grade 10 and we just have science, not biology. Health is part of gym.
June 15th, 2008 09:39
Oh, I forgot Drama.
June 15th, 2008 09:50
Oh cool, well there’s these different languages like Spanish French(I already know some French but I want to learn more) German, Portugese, Japanese. And so yeah…I don’t even know all the electives there’s the languages(which two years is recquired, three for a university college) photography, journalism, art, drama, the sciences, choir, band, orchestra, NJOTC,technology, home economis, shop, and a buncha others I didn’t care to remember…
June 15th, 2008 09:54
cool. You are so lucky.
June 15th, 2008 10:01
*shrugs* Most of them are only offered to 11th & 12th graders. Hmmm…I’m bored so I’ll post another poem or two.
I slowly rewind the soundtrack of my life,
trying to see what I did wrong,
realizing that I really shouldn’t care and I don’t.
What’s done is done,
I will fall no deeper into the quicksand of my soul that
has a grip on me.
I tear away. No more, I say, NO MORE, I shout.
To who? No one, but myself, for no one else cares to listen.
A tragedy’s a tragedy, I wouldn’t want to darken someone’s day.
So I fall to my knees,
all alone in this world,
I say goodbye,
and I leave like a passing dove.
I spread my wings and fly,
fly over the hardships, fly over the troubles.
I sail happily with warm open arms into the tomb, the eternal encasement of death.
Why?
Because, that’s who I am…who I always would be.
How? Easy, I just…let go.
Promise me, you won’t let your freedom die from within. Promise me, you won’t be caged alive.
I know you more than you think, I know how you feel. I know the steady beating of your heart.
Why? Bacause that’s who I…was…don’t become me.
_____________________________________________________
I’m deaf to my own thoughts.
Blind to my own ideas.
I hide behind a shell, a mask.
Where am I underneath the layers
of carefully crafted happiness? I wouldn’t
be able to begin to guess.
But I do it for you. If you knew the
extent of my sorrow, my hatred, my
mere confused thoughts about existance,
then your heart would break in two.
So remember, I do it all for you.
You are my other half, you are a part of me,
you are the reason for every breath I take.
I just have to stop and wonder, when will I
find…you?
_____________________________________________________
People don’t usually understand that these words don’t display how I feel personally, that I try to capture the emotions of people I see walking down the street, whether it’s a positive happy feeling or sad and hopeless, it’s most likely not mine.
June 15th, 2008 10:01
wow, you guys wite ALOT of comments! I kind of, no offense, hate reading and writing poetry, i just dont like it for some reason. No offense at all, im not saying you’re poety is bad. Im more of a story writer, except i have a problem of underestimating myself. Like i start a book and im all like this is goiing to be great, and then later i say, this is terrible! What a terrible idea! Yes i admit it! I also get ideas from authors and im like my work will never be as good as this, so i have trouble coming up with ideas. Like, after i finished uglies trilogy i was OBSESSED with it and i wanted it to end with shay being her old self again and Tally, so i decided to write another book, but it ended up being really cheezy so i stopped. I now have this idea to write a book about a girl who discovers a whole new world that lives in secret on the clouds. Let me know if you have any ideas/things that i should add to it.
June 15th, 2008 10:04
cool scott-la posted this blog entry exactly 5 days from when TZ and i posted that last coment

June 15th, 2008 10:13
Read twilight? Yeah…she doesn’t get turned into anything though, so I’m confuzzled.
June 15th, 2008 10:13
Okay, I’m back, temperarily. I think I’ll write a poem:
They are all around us
They surround us
They become us
They are us
And we are them
We are masks
Shadows of who we are
Squashed to what society wants
And robots to it
Brainwashed by commericialism
We are here
But we don’t hear what is true
We don’t understand truth,
For that is not on which society was built
But hopefully on which,
We were built
But I can only hope
And that hope is enough
June 15th, 2008 10:13
huh? i know what the last part means but for the rest HUH? im taking french
June 15th, 2008 10:13
I’m confuseded too!
June 15th, 2008 10:14
at the end it doesnt specifically say it put it says edwards teeth formed around my neck or something like that, it means he agreed to bite her, which means she turned into a vampire
June 15th, 2008 10:14
I take french and still don’t understand it. But that was Spanish right? I can’t be THAT bad at french.
June 15th, 2008 10:14

June 15th, 2008 10:15
Whoah that was a three way tie all at 10:13, creepy much. I said I have to go to the airport. But my Mom said we still have a couple minutes so I’m back for now.
June 15th, 2008 10:15

Okay…falling asleep now. Did Tally & Zane leave??
June 15th, 2008 10:19

June 15th, 2008 10:19

June 15th, 2008 10:19
Edward didn’t bite her, sorry… Je sais un peu de français, mais n’ai jamais pris de classe. (did I say that right? I always mess up on the genders dang it…)
June 15th, 2008 10:20
That was french, right? I really suck at french.
June 15th, 2008 10:20
o ya that always happens to me.
June 15th, 2008 10:21
Oh sorry! I was washing my hands of evil printer ink! They’re stained! Ah! But the poems really awesome, powerful in what it tells it’s readers, great job!
June 15th, 2008 10:21

June 15th, 2008 10:21
I’m so tierd. I still don’t speek french though.
June 15th, 2008 10:21
o wait maybe not
June 15th, 2008 10:22
Yay. What’s je suis? Isn’t that “I am” ? But then again, I’m practially failing french.
June 15th, 2008 10:23
GTG. It’s dinner time! Yay!
June 15th, 2008 10:23
Ya I said, or at least I hope I said, that I know a little French but have never taken a class. At least I can pronounce the words in French correctly(I am French anyway) I totally butcher the accent in Spanish…
June 15th, 2008 10:24
byebye andrea-la
June 15th, 2008 10:24

June 15th, 2008 10:26

Uh sort of, not for long though…
June 15th, 2008 11:08
hahahahahahahahaha!!!!! I had PadTai for supper, which reminds me of Uglies and SpagBol which makes me laugh for hours……my parents started giving me weird looks when I couldn’t hold my chopsticks for laughing.
June 15th, 2008 11:09
I think I’ll play my clarinet to annoy the company. My dad has Colonel Bogey stuck in his head already from this afternoon because of a grand total of 10 times in a row. Then my dad told me that I had been praciticing for over an hour and that I should stop. Let’s just say that I didn’t.
June 15th, 2008 12:19
ANY. ONE. HERE.
June 15th, 2008 13:05
Anybody here? Please, oh, please, say yes!

June 16th, 2008 00:00
Yay! I’m not the only person in the world!
June 16th, 2008 03:01
Anyone here?
June 16th, 2008 03:04
Has anyone ever heard the song “I kissed a Girl” by Katy Perry? I know its a little weird but i love that song! It has a good beat and all. And if you listen to the lyrics…the sory is little different then her just kissing s girl. Jw if anyone has ever heard it.
June 16th, 2008 03:22
Where did everyone go? Are you people still sleeping? You sleepy head! Wake-e Wake-e! Get up now! come talk to Bran-la because she is o-so lonely. Actually Bran-la is gonna take a shower so you just keep sleeping!
June 16th, 2008 03:53
I’ve been awake for a while!
June 16th, 2008 04:04
I’ve heard that song, yes. It does have… interesting lyrics. Actually, after I heard that song I went out and bought Cherry ChapStick, which was a complete waste of money, as I much prefer my Cherry Unpetroleum and I already knew that before I even bought ChapStick.
And I’ve been awake since my alarm went off at 6:15 AM (I never unset it from the school year), so no fair accusing me of sleeping!
June 16th, 2008 04:08
I’ve been awake for a while too!
June 16th, 2008 04:08
Also, chapstick is kinda useless.
June 16th, 2008 04:24
Haha. I want it as my ring tone but my friend was like “i dont think you want to do that..” But i love the song so much. Look up the lyrics though. She says that she was basically drinking and got brave sooo…idk i dont care. Haha. bi
June 16th, 2008 04:27
I don’t even know what song that your talking about.
June 16th, 2008 04:43
haha. i’ve heard that song. one night my mom was taking me n my friends home from a party and one of my friends starts singing/yelling it. lol. and after they got out of the car my mom was like “she’s a little weird Kaylee.” and i’m like “mom, it’s a song!” it was funny.
June 16th, 2008 04:45
ughh.. this pancake is too sweet! ..it’s saturated in syrup. i don’t think i can eat it. bleh.
June 16th, 2008 04:56
I’ve already had lunch. Your eating it for lunch right? No one eats breakfast that late, right?
June 16th, 2008 05:03
lol. it was breakfast and lunch. i hadn’t eaten breakfast yet. and i’m kinda odd. like i have to have some kind of breakfast food before i can eat anything else. so it was both. lol.
June 16th, 2008 05:39
What weird hand motions are you talking about Scott??
June 16th, 2008 06:21
Pancakes can never be too sweet. Idk what your talking about. I practically drown mine in syrup.
Yeah my dad thought the song was a little weird but i love it. He doesnt have to like my music. Haha.
Idk what i am going to do today….
June 16th, 2008 07:48
haha actualy my friend had that song stuck in her head at school everyone gave her weird looks
have you heard reel big fish she has a girlfriend now
its so good funny though
June 16th, 2008 07:54
anyone on i planned on talking before i have to goi went to my sisters graduation yesterday so now im going to my cousins
and then out to eat, mmm
June 16th, 2008 08:19
Okay i was reading some of the old post and i have to disagree on something someone said.
They were talking about gay or lesbien people and divorce.
Ok, it is scientically proven that people that are bi/gay/other or born like that. They cant control it. And God wants us to except one another and not be judgemental…so why does that church say “Gay people are wrong”? Huh? Thats one thing that drives me CRAZY! I cant stand it! We are suppose to be God-like but they are making us UN God-like!
And divorce. Who freakin cars? i dont. If my husband beat me and tried to kill me i would divorce him too! If we didnt get along and we werent in love any more, why stay with them? Then we wouldnt be “one”. I say NEXT.
So next time you think being gay or w/e is wrong, just think…would you want to be hated? disliked? Looked down upon? SHUNNED!? And if your husband/wife threatend you/hit you/hated you or you just lost love…would you divorce?
God isnt going to send you to hell because you made one bad choice in finding love or if you were born a certain way. He will always love us. And to be honest, who says hell even exsists? I dont no about you but i have never seen it.
Peace!
June 16th, 2008 08:27
I just thought of an awesome way to look at it (the gay thing).
Just because adam and eve were straight doesnt mean everyone has to be. Is like saying “well adam and eve had blue eyes so everyone without blue eyes are wrong and shouldnt be accepted”. How would you feel?
June 16th, 2008 08:41
I need someone to talk to me before i explode. This topic makes me stressed. I hate the churches teachings sometimes. HATE!
June 16th, 2008 08:54
go bran-la someone agrees with me
and people are born that way, so god made them that way and god, as everyone says doesnt make mistakes
June 16th, 2008 08:56
I just dislike(hate is a strong word) when people try to force religion
oh got to go discuss later
June 16th, 2008 11:05
okay, Bran-la. Again, as I’ve said before, THESE ARE TESTS. think about this- You say that if someone is born gay/lesbian, they cannot get over it. Truth is, THEY CAN. It’s whether they choose to that’s the problem. What you’re saying is that if someone is born with a trait, they cant change it for what they believe in. SO if someone was born with an extra leg- are you saying they cannot remove it? Or if someone is born as a very non-outgoing person, they cant become more outgoing? And your little Adam and Eve mediphor is absolutely wrong. Because guess wat? GOD CREATED ADAM AND EVE IN HIS IMAGE. He created a man and a woman. No more, no less. And having blue eyes is something you cant change. You can cover it up, with colored contacts, but it is not possible to change as far as I know. Yet being gay/lesbian can be changed if the person tries. And they aren’t looked down upon by us. Chrstians care for everyone, whether they’re bi, lesbian, gay, straight, whatever. They aren’t being shunned.
On divorce- If your husband/wife beats you or tries to kill you, they obvioously don’t care about you and you both made the wrong decision in marrige. No duh. Obvious part, right? Well, again, as I’ve said before, marrige is a commitment that bonds you to your spouse and you become one. Divorce has absolutely nothing to do with God or the church, so you’re still one whether divorced or not.
And don’t you DARE throw the “God loves everyone, so you won’t go to hell and blah blah blah” thing on me. God loves us, but if you don’t follow what he’s told you to do without asking for his forgivness, you will go to hell. Like it or not. And Bran-la, if you don’t believe there is hell you honestly aren’t a Chrstian, because Chrstians believe everything the Bible says. And the Bible CLEARLY STATES that there is Hell, and you WILL go to it if you don’t follow what he says.
Oh, and if your spouse tried to kill you, divorce would be the LAST thing on my mind, because I’d be dialling 911.
June 16th, 2008 11:12
Yeah…total agreement to Emily-wa. Total agreement. There totally is a Hell, and God is real too.
June 16th, 2008 11:19
Hey was I one of the conflicting peoples you guys are talking about???
June 16th, 2008 11:20
I’m confused. Anywho….MY HAMSTER IS CLIMBING UP THE WALL LIKE FREAKING SPIDERMAN!!!!I am so proud yet a bit creeped out by this….
June 16th, 2008 11:29
Kenzie, comment 394-”But even if you dont beleive in him you still can go to heaven.”
This drives me nuts. No you can’t. I’ll prove it to you- I have a Chrstian magazine at hand with the answer to your question. Here ya go (and i’m summarizing because it’s pretty long…)-
John 14:6 says, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Note the keyword “the.” not “a.” “The” way. “The” truth. “The” life. Notice that Father is in heaven. Therefore, you cant get to heaven without believing. You may believe something else. But you’re believing the wrong thing. I can sincerely believe that i can fly, but if I jump off a tall building, guess what’s going to happen.
And if someone goes through life without hearing of Him? No one goes to hell unfairly. To sin just ONCE is enough to make you a sinner needing God’s forgivness. “For the wager of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). As for people like Ghandi who do good but don’t believe- Sure, Ghandi did some good things, but our few good deeds, when compared to God’s holy righteousness, are compared to “filthy rags” (Isaiah 64:6). And God knows Ghandi’s heart and secret thoughts. Nobody else does.
Thanks to Tom Neven, from the Brio magazine staff, for practically giving this answer to me. Although I had to modify it because i realized the question was about Jesus. But ya know, either way the answer is correct
June 16th, 2008 11:29
“And having blue eyes is something you cant change. You can cover it up, with colored contacts, but it is not possible to change as far as I know.” thats what you said and this is what you also said “You say that if someone is born gay/lesbian, they cannot get over it. Truth is, THEY CAN. It’s whether they choose to that’s the problem. What you’re saying is that if someone is born with a trait, they cant change it for what they believe in.” Not everything can be changed. As you PROVED yourself.
June 16th, 2008 11:31
Ah, Bran-la, nice eye. What I meant wasn’t physical traits. I meant personality- such as gay/lesbian, shyness, etc.
Yea, all this is coming from a 13 year old chrstian who has read bits and pieces of the Bible
June 16th, 2008 11:39
Anyone here?!?! If you go to my blog and go into the comments for the opinion section, we can continue this conversation. unless you want to continue bothing scott-la and his fabulous book-blog for things absoultely irrelevent to the subject of scott-la being on tv
June 16th, 2008 11:40
I think that the whole crap with you thinking that they arent born with that and cant help it is RIDICULOUS! And you think they arent being SHUNNED? Ask your priest what he thinks about it. Ask anyone who is at the church. They will tell you it is wrong. And its not! It is absolutely NOT! And i hate that people think it is bad…it drives me up a wall. It is crazy to think that it is wrong!
My friend told me this one day: “God created Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve.” guess what i say? “Your full of crap cause i have met Gay people and Bi people in my life. So if you believe that, i want to no who made them cause obviously you dont think God did.” Lets just say..with all the PROOF i gave her, she now thinks exactly what i do.
You know what i am going to do? I am going to ask all my friends about what they think. I want to see which side most believe. For the fun of it. I am very curious.
June 16th, 2008 11:47
Wow Bran-la. I honestly didn’t understand half of what you just said O_o
and for the record- The very first line of what you said is wrong. I never said that they aren’t born with it. But they can help it. And no, THEY AREN’T BEING SHUNNED!!!! Open Your Eyes. Do you see gay/lesbian people hiding in shadows, rocking back and forth whispering to themselves? they live like anyone else. Only problem is they aren’t going to heaven because obviously they wouldn’t be going along with their feelings of they were christian. because they’d know it was wrong, and would fight it. If someone starts smoking, it’s difficult for them to stop but they can do it. And the smart ones do. And good luck with your friends.
June 16th, 2008 11:49
“…the wouldn’t be going along with their feelings of they were chrstian.”=”…they wouldn’t be going along with their feelings if they were chrstian.”
June 16th, 2008 11:51
ew. I need a shower. my hair is really gross….
prolly tmi, huh?
June 16th, 2008 11:55
rawr i hate not having anyone on here -.-
June 16th, 2008 11:56
rawr i’m gonna go, bbl if my sister doesn’t hog the computer all night like she did friday morning before we left to visit family who has no internet -.-
June 16th, 2008 12:03
OMG! I am going to seriously explode!!!!!! THEY WILL GO TO HEAVEN! THEY CAN NOT HELP IT! And my dad smokes and he cant stop! He has tried but its hard! You cant fight what your body wants, your mind wants, what YOU want! And its not about be Christian or catholic or w/e freakin crap you are! Its about being you! God wouldn’t give me a foot if he didn’t want me to have it. He wouldn’t give me eyes and expect me to be blind! We are who we are because thats how we were made! I guess i should tell you now rather than later my opinion on the church:
through this year, i have weaved more and more towards not being a believer because of the church. I think they are unfair and they make up stuff and they teach stuff that isnt even what God would want us to do (like being judgmental and shunning). Thats why i decided i wanted to believe…just in my own way. So i believe what i NO is true and what i NO God wants. And trust me, he is ok with Gays…or he wouldn’t have made them.
BTW, When you say that the people are going to hell, your being judgmental…and thats not a very good Christian!
June 16th, 2008 12:09
I have to go and blow off some steam. Then maybe i will listen i kissed a girl. Sung by a girl!
June 16th, 2008 12:19
im bak..lol..im sad. i need a hug. this guy broke my heart. im listing to ‘ur so gay’ by Katy Perry. wow. i really need a hug right now. *looks down sadly*
June 16th, 2008 12:24
*crys* he really hurt me. i love him. or at least i thought i did. he was the best. i miss him.
June 16th, 2008 12:29
Look, Bran-la, you just said that you can’t fight what you want. That is not true. Every single day I fight what I want. I want to be normal. But I don’t let myself. You know why? Because I’m not. I could act normal, and it is what I want more than anything. ANYTHING! But I know that is not possible. Bran-la, I really don’t know what church you go to, but this is my opinion:”Bran-la, I’m not going to lable you for what you have said. I am not going to be judgemental about your perspective, and I myself am not going to try to change it. I am not stooping to other people’s levels and am NOT labling you. I hope that this is something that you can understand. Please though, don’t let what some Christians think about God harm you. But to be quite frank, I will voice MY opinion just have you yours. In my opinion the idea is marriage is between a man and a women. In my mind, this is how it is ment to be. It may be different in yours, but my mind is standing firm. God’s perspective on this hasn’t changed either. It says in the Bible that man and women should be together and I am standing by this.”. See, just my opinion, but I thought that I’d voice it anyway.
June 16th, 2008 12:40
I’m getting a headache. All this argueing isn’t happy-making. Talking about this is okay, but flat out argueing like you guys are isn’t what should be going on. Cuz it’s really not making a difference, just giving me a headache and annoying other people. You guys all have different points of view on this subject obviously and please nobody blow up. Cuz I don’t wanna clean up the mess, it’s really nasty if you know what I mean? But yeah….so all I’m asking is please civilly state your opinions and have a….whatever you call it….non argumentative discussion…. cuz you’ve already gotten your point across to everyone…that was weird….anywho apparently nobody cares that I have a freaking spidey hamster, am I the only one that thinks that’s cool?
June 16th, 2008 12:46
That really cool Tally&Zane, but really, we weren’t argueing, we were voiceing our opionins. Sorry, if it is giving you a headache, but that is what happens when a few opinionated people start discussing such things.
June 16th, 2008 12:48
oh. my. gosh. i mean, i’ve been off for like a few days and there’re 560 COMMENTS!!!!
pete sake.
w/e.
anyway, awesome job, scott-sama!!!
June 16th, 2008 12:49
Seriously though, I was playing with Tally-poo(My Hammyster) and I set her down and she just climbs up the wall! Scary much??? But fawesome!
June 16th, 2008 12:51
It’s really really cool. But with all of this opinionated arguing, we never heard your opinion on the subs. Care to share?
June 16th, 2008 13:00
yo-la
guess what hurts? my foot. Guess why? Because I Stepped On Some of Those Stupid Really Hard, Stick-Like Grass Things And It Cut My Foot!! And Guess What Else? While I Was Cleaning It In My Room, I Saw A BUG CRAWLING ON MY LEG!! AND IT WOULDN’T COME OFF!!!!! Gosh, my foot hurts.
so, on another note, I’m out of things to say. Bran-la, you’ve been turning things around and making no sense, so I give up. Unless I know an absolutely clear answer to a question, i’m not answering.
June 16th, 2008 13:00
Subs? Uh…care to elaborate? I didn’t read all of them….just skimmed.
June 16th, 2008 13:01
Subjects. God vs. Evolution. Gay marriage. Those topics. Suckishness Emily-wa. But I like bugs. You didn’t kill it, did you?
June 16th, 2008 13:03
Um, I think it was a silverfish, so ya.
Sorry. lol.
oh, and I know, about your comment on my blog-wa, Andrea-la
June 16th, 2008 13:04
Which comment? I’ve done many.
June 16th, 2008 13:05
I just recently got a Cat Fancy magazine, and was reading the “Garfield Weighs In On….” and then whatever topic. this issue was on declawing your cat. Garfield said something like, “Three topics you should never bring up in conversations: Politics, Religion, and declawing your cat.”
lol.
June 16th, 2008 13:05
your last one, about the bible relating to like any subject.
June 16th, 2008 13:06
oh joy, my no-longer-friend becca is on gmail and trying to talk to me again. While I’m talking to Lora…
this ought to be interesting.
oh good, lora isn’t going to tell becca I’m actually on
June 16th, 2008 13:07
But those may be the three most interesting topics that are in exsistence. You know, except the whole story about how your pet rock ran away.
June 16th, 2008 13:08
The bible even has info about the Lables. About how people call other people names. See, it relates to modern life. Or prehaps modern life relates to it.
June 16th, 2008 13:10
BTW, my pet rock has actually ran away. If you ever see a rock that answers to Rocky the Third, let me know. He ran away a while ago.
June 16th, 2008 13:10
ah, good point andrea-la
and it says (apparently) that before the end of the world, people will be marked and that nobody without the mark will be able to buy or sell. I read the book “Bar Code Tattoo” which is like based on that. The author guessed at what that would be like. It’s similar to Uglies in a way of set in the future, rebellion against authroity, etc.
June 16th, 2008 13:11
Got it, Andrea-la
although i doubt it will come all the way to KY from wherever in canada you are
June 16th, 2008 13:11
Ah. I wonder why so many people think that it is unpolite to voice opinions.
June 16th, 2008 13:12
Hey, if the rock can leave my room, anything is possible.
June 16th, 2008 13:13
Oh yeah….I commented on those already but I’ll summarize.
G vs. E : Evolution is a made up theory that for some reason people think is more believable. Genesis 1:1 God created the Heavens and the Earth.
marriage: Even though they’re different, and it doesn’t say that it’s okay in the Bible, God loves us all, and forgives us that’s why he sent Jesus to die for us, so if they’re believers and have a relationship with God, then they’re saved. They have just as much right as any believer to go to Heaven.
That’s my view on things, if anyone wants me to like explain further then ask.
June 16th, 2008 13:16
Were you talking about me? If so I didn’t mean it was unpolite to voice opinions, I just meant that we get it. Cuz everything was getting a bit repetitive and angryish…
June 16th, 2008 13:17
No, that was an open ended opinionated question for anyone.
June 16th, 2008 13:22
I hate the color periwinkle. It’s disgusts me. I have no clue why, it just does.
June 16th, 2008 13:22
Sorry I meant It not It’s.
June 16th, 2008 13:22
lol. random much?
June 16th, 2008 13:23
HMMMMMM. Why do colors even matter?
June 16th, 2008 13:25
idk. good point.
June 16th, 2008 13:26
Ah, I want a Grand Piano sooooooooo bad. And I could actually get one too, but there’s no where to put it. No room. So sad.
June 16th, 2008 13:27
I mean, are they like music for the eyes? Do they make things interesting? I have a question for everyone:”would you rather live without laughter or without music?”. My opinion is that I would rather live without laughter. I wouldn’t be able to function without music.
June 16th, 2008 13:28
i’d say laughter. you know what they say- laughter is the best medicine.
June 16th, 2008 13:30
ah, someone answer me…!!!
HEY guess what? Scott-la made a mistake in… hold on let me go find the book. iether Uglies or Pretties…
uno momento
June 16th, 2008 13:30
I need music to function. Without music, there would be no laughter.
June 16th, 2008 13:33
I suppose you are right. I happen to be a very opinionated person and when people have different opinions…i tend to soak up the opportunity. Sorry Emily-wa if i hurt your feelings or anything. Obviously God made us with two totaly different way of thinking and we should take that as a chance to share ways of thinking…not argue about them. But at the same time i hope that you learned from what i said cause i did learn from you!
Night!
June 16th, 2008 13:34
Okay. Anyone with Pretties, look at pg 107. it says, “Shay glided over to gather Tally in a hug, coming to a halt mostly by bumping into her. ‘Hey, Skinny-wa.’”
Skinny-WA? Scott-la, it should be LA!! LALALALA!!!
And I think that if a name starts with an L it should be -la, but if it both starts with an L and has an L in it, it should stay -Wa. Such as Lora-la, but not Lily-La. It should be Lily-wa.
June 16th, 2008 13:35
I think that the term argue is a bit too stong. Prehaps debate is more appropriate.
June 16th, 2008 13:35
Night, Bran-la
And I’m solid about my opinion. But I’m glad you’ve learned from what i’ve said
June 16th, 2008 13:36
yes. Agreed.
June 16th, 2008 13:36
I still don’t get the whole la vs. wa thing.
June 16th, 2008 13:37
okay. My friend Lora says that Bran-la and anyone for gay/lesbian marrige should read Leviticus Ch.18!
June 16th, 2008 13:37
Yeah it was random but seriously it’s like my least favorite color ever. Colors matter cuz they give us perspective. For example, you can look at a picture in black & white, then see the same picture in color, and it’s a totally different experience. Color surrounds us. And showcases the complete beauty of what we see. Unless it’s periwinkle. Color isn’t nesecarily needed,it’s a luxury, you may say you don’t want luxury but you can still enjoy it. Color is like tasting with sight.(This coming from an artist.)
June 16th, 2008 13:38
it’s simple Andrea-la. if you have an “L” in your name, it’s -wa. otherwise it’s -la. But i disagree, and think that if the only “L” in the name is the first letter, it should stay -la. Ex: Lora-la
June 16th, 2008 13:39
Very true, TZ. RReminds me of the Lois Lowry book, The Giver.
June 16th, 2008 13:40
There’s an exception to pretty much every rule so figures that there’d be a la/wa thing in the book that’s different. *shrugs*
June 16th, 2008 13:40
wait anyone know what brbv stands for? Lora said it then got offline -.-
June 16th, 2008 13:40
I think that Lora-wa sounds better. Also, names ending with y without an L should be either way. For example, Amy-wa sounds just a right as Amy-la.
June 16th, 2008 13:40
but Skinny-wa? it sounds wrong -.- and i’m the one for lora-la!! Scott-la should at least enforce his own rules….
June 16th, 2008 13:41
eh, people have their opinions. I’m still calling her Lora-la, tho. And good point andrea-la. Amy-la seems to sound better to me, but it sounds like it could go either way. My foot still hurts.
June 16th, 2008 13:42
Haven’t read that book, is it good?
June 16th, 2008 13:43
also, look at romans 1-3 bran-la and others for gay/lesbian marrige.
June 16th, 2008 13:45
~*PART SPOILER*~
Pretties is my absolute favorite uglies series book. The order-
1. Pretties
2. Specials
3. Ending of Extras (when Tally comes into the picture.)
4. beginning of Extras and Uglies is tied.
June 16th, 2008 13:45
ok just got bak but ill summerize my opinions/elaborate on past opinions
in the whole if you dont beleive you got to hell why if someones done nothing wrong and been a good citizan but doesnt beleive in god for personal choices is no reason they shouldn’t go to heaven
on being gay, god wants us to be happy, but would you be happy with a person your not attracted to
on christans/beleivers looking disriminating on gay people does happen i know people wo have been regected by their church because they are gay even though you may not do it, it does happen
on the color perriwinkle it has a stupid name eeh color
spider/hamster would be cool
June 16th, 2008 13:48
I get the la and wa thing how it’s supposed to be but in my opinion la on my name sounds better and on other ppl’s names that start with l’s
June 16th, 2008 13:48
okay Kenzie. Do some research. Search Yahoo!Answers on questions like if christians believe gay/lesbian is gay. And also, don’t base all chrstians on one church. Obviously that church isn’t the best, but at the same time gay/lesbian and christ don’t go together. Like i said, read Romans 1-3 and Leviticus ch18. I’m getting tired of repeating things.
June 16th, 2008 13:48
pretty much wait emily-wa said
June 16th, 2008 13:49
HI LORA-LA
peeps this is lora-la
June 16th, 2008 13:50
rawr my foot hurts like the dickens! sounds like chickens… anyone ever notice that?!
June 16th, 2008 13:50
i gtg to bed soon- i can tell because the TV downstairs was just turned off lol
June 16th, 2008 13:51
Okay I’m just saying this. If that person doesn’t believe in God, well that means they don’t believe in heaven then right? Then why on Earth would they go somewhere that “doesn’t exist” in their minds? Don’t quote me on this, cuz this isn’t the exact scripture but it says in the Bible that “There is no way to Heaven except through Me…” (Meaning God/Jesus)
June 16th, 2008 13:52
hey Andrea-la I need a new gmail stat bc apparently the acorn theory has some glitches. Any ideas?
June 16th, 2008 13:52
its happened at more than one church i have done reseach
and im not saying just christans im saying some variations and similar religions mostly
June 16th, 2008 13:53
Exactly. I just said that while talking to bran-la -.-
June 16th, 2008 13:53
ok. well i know catholics don’t do that. and lora-la’s regular christian church would never do that. They’re too fawesome for that, huh lora-la?
June 16th, 2008 13:54
but they also wouldnt beleive in hell
also to go to make them beleive
June 16th, 2008 13:55
“I wonder what cheerleaders wear in florida…”
That was on a commercial on the TV downstairs.
What. The. Heck.
June 16th, 2008 13:55
*raises hand* My Church doesn’t do that, I go to an Evangelist Christian Church.
June 16th, 2008 13:55
kenzie: what? i cant understand what you typed….
June 16th, 2008 13:55
kenzie if ppl don’t believe in god then they won’t believe in heaven or hell: maybe an ‘after life’ of some kind but heaven and hell are mostly associated with Christians, Catholics, or Lutheran
Kenzie on the gay thing god does want us to be happy, he says in the bible (the verses emily-wa said) that be homosexual is wrong and that it disgusts him, but that as long as you don’t act on thoose urges and that lust it is ok and if you do you need to repent and that he will forgive you jsut like he would any other sin
yes some christians do discriminate against gay/lesbians but that doesn’t go for all of them in the bible judging ppl is just as much a sin as being homosexual and is even more talked about then being homosexual
and your last comment confuses me
June 16th, 2008 13:56
i just remembered(feel kkinda stupid) i was thinking cathlic they’re usual more sever on gay/lesbians
June 16th, 2008 13:58
i was talking to TZ
June 16th, 2008 13:58
AND YES I LOVE CROSSROADS!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH EMILY-WA I GOT TO HELP WITH THE 6TH AND 7TH GRADERS SERVICE I LEAD THE WORSHIP SONG WITH A FRIEND IT WAS AMAZING AND SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH FUN
June 16th, 2008 13:59
Hamsters like dog food, dogs like cat food, and cats don’t even like cat food they just eat freaking fish! What the heck is up with this??? Stuff needs to stop being labeled cuz they’ve got it all wrong…..
June 16th, 2008 13:59
almost perfect lora-la except one thing: catholics and Lutheran ARE christians O_o
June 16th, 2008 14:00
Lora-la say what??? Crossroads? Is that the name of your Church?!
June 16th, 2008 14:00
kenzie Catholics are more severe and strict on everything. funness, lora-la
and true, TZ.
sorry i went to say ‘night to my mom and chase my cat up the stairs.
June 16th, 2008 14:01
yes, TZ. Crossroads Chrstian Church is the most fawesome christian church i’ve ever been to. i’d go there if i didn’t have to go to Catholic church lol
but i’m going to her youth group if they let me
June 16th, 2008 14:01
catholics and Lutheran are different branches of christans
June 16th, 2008 14:01
True but a form and just stating that so no one says ‘well catholics/Lutherans are/arn’t like that to’ i dont remember exactly what i was referring to
June 16th, 2008 14:02
well yes but they’re still chrstian.
people tend to confuse that and it annoys me muches. -.-
June 16th, 2008 14:03
My Church is called CrossRoads Church too! That’s why I was like…huh???
June 16th, 2008 14:03
Tally & Zane my church is called crossroads christian church but crossroads for short and i didn’t tell emily-wa that on gmail chat
June 16th, 2008 14:04
wow TZ. weirdness. are you on eastern time?
June 16th, 2008 14:04
ya i like our church group although im not in it im friends with them thy go to four square
June 16th, 2008 14:04
oh thats amazing!!!! theres like a ton of them well a good amount
June 16th, 2008 14:04
Hey anyone like the song Kryptonite by 3 doors down?
June 16th, 2008 14:05
ya i like that song
June 16th, 2008 14:05
Nope not Eastern time.
June 16th, 2008 14:06
hey peeps who’ve read Midnighters I’m confused- you know how 39 is an anti-darkling #? well 3+9=12. the darkling #. But 39 divided by 3 is 13, the anti-darkling #. So why does the anti-darkling # win?
June 16th, 2008 14:06
I Love it, I really like 3 doors down! My faves are Kryptonite, Citizen Soldier, It’s not My Time, & Here Without You.
June 16th, 2008 14:07
and i think so, TZ.
June 16th, 2008 14:08
dividing is more powerful than adding? IDK
June 16th, 2008 14:08
Cuz it’s a multiple of 13 which is stronger, cuz 39 is it’s own number not 3 and 9 seperated.
June 16th, 2008 14:08
yeps
June 16th, 2008 14:09
oic. Wait lora-la you’ve never read Midnighters. Why are you saying “yeps”?
June 16th, 2008 14:09
wait wat
June 16th, 2008 14:09
hey lora-la we’re going to the pool sometime this week. Wanna come?!
June 16th, 2008 14:10
i ment to the 3 doors down question
June 16th, 2008 14:11
idk maybe it depends how busy i am
June 16th, 2008 14:11
i have a new sub for us- plastic surgery and surgical enhancement. anyone wanna discuss?
June 16th, 2008 14:11
oic lora. and kaas, i’ll give you details later.
June 16th, 2008 14:13
IM SO CONFUSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 16th, 2008 14:13
I can understand plastic surgery say if someone was like in a car accident and it like screwed up their face but other than that I think it’s completely stupid and I for one wouldn’t wanna be a freaking barbie doll.
June 16th, 2008 14:13
just forget it lora-la. we know what’s going on. Is anyone else there?! TZ, Andrea-la?!
June 16th, 2008 14:14
well then
June 16th, 2008 14:15
I’m here you posted the same time as me.
June 16th, 2008 14:15
Exactly, TZ. If it’s neccesary such as removing someone’s extra toe or leg, or fixing something after an accident absolutely. But otherwise it’s saying that when God made you, he did it wrong. Like when you get your nose done- you’re saying that God didn’t make your nose right, so a mere human is going to fix it…
June 16th, 2008 14:15
okay. Andrea-la, you there?
June 16th, 2008 14:16
i just think plasitc surgerie can be overdone
June 16th, 2008 14:17
um, define overdone and what you think is right, Kenzie.
June 16th, 2008 14:19
true it can be and emily-wa are you reading revolve???????
June 16th, 2008 14:19
Well, if someone is like born deformed or something like that, then there is a surgery that’s done to help it but I don’t consider that as plastic surgery.
June 16th, 2008 14:20
Lora-la: Revolve?
TZ: Exactly.
June 16th, 2008 14:20
WELL I WENT FOR A WALK AROUND THE WORLD TO EASE MY TROUBLED MIND AND I LEFT MY BODY LYIN SOMEWHERE IN THE SANDS OF TIME!!!!
June 16th, 2008 14:21
…are you okay, TZ?
June 16th, 2008 14:21
i think if you want somthing small(ie: nose kips ect) its fine or like TZ said if you were in an accedent
but when you look like a barbie its wierd
i mean do you know what her real life measurments are 38-18-34
geez thats unnatural
June 16th, 2008 14:23
kips=lips
June 16th, 2008 14:23
its kryptonite and not the bible magazine thing with the Q&A’s that we read the nose thing was in one
June 16th, 2008 14:23
IF I GO CRAZY WILL YOU STILL CALL ME SUPERMAN? IF I’M ALIVE AND WEL WILL YOU STILL BE THERE HOLDIN MY HAND? I’LL KEEP YOU BY MY SIDE WITH MY SUPERHUMAN MIGHT! KRYPTONITE!
June 16th, 2008 14:23
There’s not enough room for her organs, so she’s impossible skinny. but they changed it so that she’s a bit bigger. you can tell if you look at an old barbie compared to a new one.
And like I said, anything that changes your body is saying God didn’t do it right the first time, so yuo get a mere human to fix it.
June 16th, 2008 14:24
except when there’s an accident of deformation invilved.
June 16th, 2008 14:24
Ha. Am I ever okay? Just kidding,Yeah I’m okay it’s just stuck in my head.
June 16th, 2008 14:25
um Lora-la are you talking about Brio? the magazine?
of=or
invilved=involved
June 16th, 2008 14:25
kenzie: even when it is small like nose or lips still your saying of you messed up god so this humane is going to fix it and make it better i think surgery should only be done it you get in an accident and need it or have a defect of some kind and not really anything outside of thoose things
June 16th, 2008 14:25
but the world has changed i bet god wouldnt like alot of it
June 16th, 2008 14:26
idk it was niv i think
June 16th, 2008 14:27
Kenzie, the world didn’t change. The people did. And God didn’t change- changing your appearance is saying God didn’t do it right. There’s nothing about God changing his mind about it.
June 16th, 2008 14:28
wait i think i misunderstood you. Can you repeat that clearer..?
June 16th, 2008 14:29
true and he probably doesn’t thats why some day it is going to end along with the fact that jesus promised he would come back for thoose who believed in him and take them to his house in heaven
June 16th, 2008 14:30
i think i shall end on a good note. nighty night!
June 16th, 2008 14:30
I have a question.
June 16th, 2008 14:31
and true the world didn’t change it;s inhabitants did
June 16th, 2008 14:31
quick, what?
June 16th, 2008 14:31
what’s your question T&Z
June 16th, 2008 14:31
Why does everything supposedly taste like chicken?
June 16th, 2008 14:32
i tink exeme is wronng anything small is fine
f you get inan accedent or born with somthing its fine
June 16th, 2008 14:32
(that wasn’t my original question…I can’t remember it…but it was important…oh well.)
June 16th, 2008 14:33
kenzie god made you in his perfect image meaning changing anything about you big or small is wrong
June 16th, 2008 14:33
babies taste like fish-quote from BONES best show ever
June 16th, 2008 14:34
ok and idk but most things that ppl say tast like chicken end up tasting gross except chicken itself
June 16th, 2008 14:34
TZ: Idk. I’ve been wondering that lately….
Kenzie: GOD DESIGNED EVERY LITTLE DETAIL OF YOU AND HOW YOU’LL GROW. EVERY SINGLE HAIR WAS PLACED ON YOUR HEAD BY GOD. So if you’re saying that even changing your nose or you mouth, it’s okay, you’re saying it’s okay to change God’s design. Now, I forgot to mention this, but if you’re getting something like achne removed from your nose, that’s okay. But changing ANYTHING that has no reason except to look better is a no-no.
June 16th, 2008 14:34
That IS one of the best shows ever! I remember that episode! Did you see the one with the keys?!
June 16th, 2008 14:35
Not true, Lora-la. I think duck tastes like chicken with a different texture… yea i had duck on the cruise last january lol.
June 16th, 2008 14:36
and nice emmie
June 16th, 2008 14:37
Haha that reminds me, Lana (for TZ and Kenzie: she’s my 2-year-old niece) calls every piece of meat chicken. Pork, beef, fish, anything is chicken. it’s rather hilarious.
June 16th, 2008 14:37
well alot of things
June 16th, 2008 14:38
yes i cant beleive the ending! i thought it was sweets! i wont spoil it
peronaly i dont like plstic surgery but i think its ‘wrong’
June 16th, 2008 14:40
Oh this is hilarious- my dog, Kenzie (that’s her name, lol. i dont mean i am talking about Kenzie the person), was running around the pool at my cousins’ house. My brother had held her and let her half-swim around the shallow end, but she was never actually in the water by herself without someone holding her. Anywho, my cousins’ dog came by, and Kenzie doesn’t like their dog, and trying to get away her back legs slipped and she fell into the pool! It was hilarious! and then she was in front of my mom and Lana, who were sitting by the edge of the pool, and my mom pushed Kenzie in! Not being mean, she just couldn’t help it but it was too funny… which is pitiful but ah well.
June 16th, 2008 14:42
niether of my dogs liked water sha jsut gets mad at you and runs from you and rascal jsut swims out first chance he gets but i threw him in 2 times at the puppy paddle thing
June 16th, 2008 14:43

Well I’m gonna head off too, I’m reading this book called Road of The Dead by Kevin Brooks(by the way REALLY good, I reccomend it) and I wanna finish it so I can go to Borders tomorrow and get something else too.
June 16th, 2008 14:47
rawr i cant get away… CSI:Miami is the one i watch most, then Las Vegas. I also like Law & Order a little, only watched it a couple times tho.
NOW SHUT UP SO I CAN GET AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER!! @_@!
June 16th, 2008 14:48
Hmmm….yeah, New York always was the most boring of them all…I like Numbers too and I’ll occasionally watch Moonlight.
June 16th, 2008 14:49
*shutting up*
June 16th, 2008 14:52
SVU is the best law and order ive watched sine i was lil
June 16th, 2008 14:54
I’ve listened to Kryptonite 18 times in a row now. Special Victims Unit Hurrah! LoL!
June 16th, 2008 14:59
its just so enticing all these shows
June 17th, 2008 02:09
Dont flatter yourself too much, Emily-wa. I may have learned…but i still stick by what i said. What i learned was reasons of WHY you feel that way.
June 17th, 2008 03:38
Oic. Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I still find it funny that you’ve been “discussing” this matter with a 13 year old girl
Oh, and for the record- I think Zane is better than David, but David’s pretty cool too. I wonder what he would have been like as a pretty, and if he’d be with Tally…
Scott-la you should work on rewriting the books in Shay-la’s point of view! that would be totally fawesome.
June 17th, 2008 04:01
I have a rat-sized chihuahuha on my lap that’s shaking like a leaf!(She’s so adorable!) but she’s scared, she’s my Uncle’s dog and is REALLY attached to him, like I think she’s got seperation anxiety cuz she’s flipping out…
June 17th, 2008 04:19
oh, my dog is alot like that only she shakes randomly. We think she’s got some kind of disorder, because we cant figure out why she shakes. The vet said she’s normal at ehr last visit, like a few months ago…
June 17th, 2008 04:37
Why is everything like Giant on the site today??? It’s all screwed up, is it just my comp?
June 17th, 2008 10:23
it’s your computer, TZ. Sorry lol.
June 17th, 2008 10:51
Yeah, I know. It’s all messed up.
June 18th, 2008 09:28
ok, i’m bored, so i thought that i’d say somthing. well, i don’t think there was anything wrong with your voice or apperance, scott. you were just paranoid. anyways, how’s people’s summer vacation been so far? I’m a little nervous for next year. i’ll be a freshman, and i’m kinda short.i hope people don’t make fun of me.oh, my little sister is watching barbie and the princess and the pauper downstairs. i accualy like the songs, really. that movie isn’t to childish. the plot is enjoyable. anyways, it’s been a boring first few weeks of summer so far. well, i just got a new car, but it’s being inspected right now. oh, swimming practice is soon. it starts at 7:00pm. dinner should be ready soon, then i have to get dressed and walk to the pool. i hope i do good on the meet on monday. i had on yesterday, and i did a lot better than last time, even though i was still last on all of my races. anyways, i’ll end this random comment now.
June 18th, 2008 09:29
You do swimming too? Cool! I swim competitively! Saturday morning practices suck. We are stuck with the 6:30-8:30am slot.
June 18th, 2008 09:31
I’m gonna be a Freshman too! And good luck at the swim meet thing!
June 18th, 2008 09:31
I just started last year and my time in 50free long course is 41.32. I wish I had my B time.
June 18th, 2008 09:31

June 18th, 2008 09:32
by last year, I ment last september.
June 18th, 2008 09:32
I suck so far.
June 18th, 2008 09:33
Uh….no comprende el swimming speak…
June 18th, 2008 09:33
But I do really well in breast.
June 18th, 2008 09:34
oh, that’s cool, tz!
June 18th, 2008 09:35
breast is one of my slow stroks.
June 18th, 2008 09:35
Yeah….you say you’re short, I’m probably shorter than you. But I don’t care if they make fun of me, that stuff doesn’t bother me cuz I don’t care what they think.
June 18th, 2008 09:38
Short????
June 18th, 2008 09:39
well, i’m, um, 4′5
June 18th, 2008 09:41
wow really?
June 18th, 2008 09:41
yep
June 18th, 2008 09:42
im 5′2
June 18th, 2008 09:42
how old are you?
June 18th, 2008 09:43
15. u?
June 18th, 2008 09:44
I don’t really belong in this conversation, however I don’t care
I’m like 5′5″ or so and 13 years old.
June 18th, 2008 09:44
I’m 14. I’m 5′2. I think. I’ve never really measured.
June 18th, 2008 09:45
hello Andrea-la!
June 18th, 2008 09:45
i’m 13.
June 18th, 2008 09:46
kewl!
June 18th, 2008 09:46
Hello. You know what really really really sucks? Fly Friday. It’s when at swimming you do butterfly all practice. I have never actually had it because of my level, but next year…
June 18th, 2008 09:46
i have to eat dinner now. i’ll be back by 8:30, after swimming. see ya!
June 18th, 2008 09:47
Yea Andrea-la, last time I checked was at the doctor’s for my physical *shiver* bleh. Anywho, I’m not exactly sure how tall because i was like 5′3″ at the time, but since then my friend says she’s some taller height that i cant remember yet I’m taller than her… i’ll have to measure soon.
June 18th, 2008 09:47
Also, sets with fly in them. And IM because it goes Fly-Back-Breast-Free. And I really hate Fly. Then I hate back. But I like fly sometimes. But only sometimes. And never in large amounts.
June 18th, 2008 09:48
Andrea-la, lol
alex-wa, okay!
June 18th, 2008 09:48
I’m alot like you in swimming, Andrea-la: I cant do backstroke well because I don’t like hitting my head, and butterfly isn’t very fun. But I shall teach myself this July when we SHOULD have a pool in our backyard… although we were supposed to have one before we moved in. Stupid weather, keeping our pool from being worked on. Stupid retaining-wall requirements. rawr.
June 18th, 2008 09:49
Okay, I’m going to continue ranting about the terrors of fly. Because it sucks. But for some bizzar reason, I’m good at it. Which means that I get entered into races of fly.
June 18th, 2008 09:50
I suck at everything!
June 18th, 2008 09:50
Andrea-la I’m getting creeped out by how similar we are O_o
*twilight zone music plays in background*
June 18th, 2008 09:50
Alex-wa, I’m just barely taller than you!
June 18th, 2008 09:50
Fly totally sucks in large amounts. Otherwise, it’s pretty good. You know, compared to 10×50free on 50seconds. Which you know, is kinda hard.
June 18th, 2008 09:51
Emily-wa, I also am creeped out by our similarities. Very creeped out.
June 18th, 2008 09:51
Hello Tally & Zane!
June 18th, 2008 09:51
Okay Andrea-la you lost me there O_o
June 18th, 2008 09:52
Lost you where?
June 18th, 2008 09:52
Ello!
June 18th, 2008 09:53
“compared to 10×50free on 50seconds.”
that’s where.
June 18th, 2008 09:53
Hello!
June 18th, 2008 09:54
It makes sense. If you swim competitvevly. It means you have to swim 50metres of frontcrawl in 50seconds 10times in a row.
June 18th, 2008 09:56
sure lol.
Aww i said ‘hi’ in like 8 different ways and it didn’t work…
June 18th, 2008 09:56
Well….can somebody pah-lease review my story? It’s lonely. http://www.fanfiction.net/~iheartgaspard
June 18th, 2008 09:57

June 18th, 2008 10:00
I’ve started laughing stupidly.
June 18th, 2008 10:01
bye!
June 18th, 2008 10:01
When you said waves I immidetly thought of the swim team called the “waves”. I think I swallowed too much clorine.
June 18th, 2008 10:02
Soooooo…
June 18th, 2008 10:02
why are u laughing stupidly?
June 18th, 2008 10:03
No reason.
June 18th, 2008 10:03
Emily-wa no you left me right as i got on why is it w always do that… Oh and umm umm idk yay randomness is fun!!!!!!
June 18th, 2008 10:03
thats a great reason! lol
June 18th, 2008 10:04
I like taking pictures of people’s shoes. Especially my teachers who all thought that I was perfectly normal and brainwashed. Well, then…
June 18th, 2008 10:04
It’s the best reason of all…
June 18th, 2008 10:05
i luv taking pics of clouds!
June 18th, 2008 10:06
ME TOO!!!!!! Especially the ones that actually look like something, but then you look at the picture and can’t remember what.
June 18th, 2008 10:07
yea i know
June 18th, 2008 10:07
i like taking pics in the dark
June 18th, 2008 10:08
Shadows are fun to take pictures of too.
June 18th, 2008 10:09
ive never tried that. i’ll have to try it sometime
June 18th, 2008 10:09
i’m back, for a few minuts. yeah, tz, shadows are cool.
June 18th, 2008 10:10
Yay shadows! Except the ones that got in the way when I took pictures of people’s shoes.
June 18th, 2008 10:10
hola
June 18th, 2008 10:10
I think that my swim coach is trying to kill me.
June 18th, 2008 10:11
lol. those are bad shadows.
June 18th, 2008 10:11
I like painting and sketching more than photography though…
June 18th, 2008 10:11
why?
June 18th, 2008 10:11
Why is your swim coach trying to kill you???
June 18th, 2008 10:12
why do you think your swim coach is trying to kill you, Andrea la?
June 18th, 2008 10:12
i luv to draw except im not very good….
June 18th, 2008 10:13
He put me in the lane with the kids with A times and I don’t even have a B time. And I have to do the same sets as the kids with A times. It sucks! Just he is going to retire and this other guy who is in grade twelve at my school and plays alto sax is going to coach. I’m dreading that.
June 18th, 2008 10:13
i like to draw, rex-la
June 18th, 2008 10:14
i love photography!! …sorry for jumping in. hehe.
June 18th, 2008 10:14
alex-wa, what do you draw?
Andrea-la, why do you draed that?
June 18th, 2008 10:15
That sounds kinda not so awesome Andrea-la. I’m okay at drawing, but for some reason, I can’t draw people. Can never get the features right…
June 18th, 2008 10:15
hey, does anyone read harry potter?
June 18th, 2008 10:15
Drawing is fun. Clarinet is better. Also, drawing on shoes is fun.
June 18th, 2008 10:15
Hello Kay-wa oh and i meant to say dread on my last post!
June 18th, 2008 10:16

June 18th, 2008 10:17
HARRY POTTER BOOKS ARE THE REASON TO LIVE! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH, I’VE LOST COUNT OF HOW MANY TIMES I’VE READ ALL THEM WHEN I GOT TO 10TIMES!
June 18th, 2008 10:17

… i had to quit so i could be on the school newspaper.
June 18th, 2008 10:17
I like Twilight series better!
June 18th, 2008 10:17
Shoe drawing is fun. Especially when you then wear the shoes that you just put clay all over with your rainbow socks and the bus driver stares at you.
June 18th, 2008 10:18
i draw faces. i can never make them look like sombody spicific, though.
June 18th, 2008 10:19
i love the Twilight series!

June 18th, 2008 10:20

June 18th, 2008 10:23
And that one time(yesterday) when I wore black winter boots and a dark brown sweater with the hood up. Yeah. My friend was all,”Are you trying to get to Narnia through the swimming lockers because the wall over there wouldn’t let you into the room of requirment?”
June 18th, 2008 10:24
lol
June 18th, 2008 10:26
It’s true though. The wall didn’t let me in. But I wasn’t trying to get to Narnia. That is so last year.

I’ve been to vancuver, but have no clue how to spell it.
June 18th, 2008 10:30

June 18th, 2008 11:29
HI! I’m back! So what’s up?
June 18th, 2008 11:33
Wow! This is kind of a random statement, but Twilight fans seem a lot different than Scott Westerfeld fans. I used to be addicted to the Uglies books, but then I read Twilight and now I think that I’m more of a Stephenie Meyer. I mean I still like Scott, don’t get me wrong, it’s just Twilight is a lot different, and I think I like it a little more.
June 18th, 2008 11:35
Deferent books creat differet people.
June 18th, 2008 11:38
Hmmm….I’m in love with both. I don’t compare them, because they’re so different that it would be hard to.
June 18th, 2008 11:39
Yes. Variety is good. Like a fruit salad.
June 18th, 2008 11:42
YepYepYep
July 4th, 2008 08:04
