So since I have already taken your class, I have already written a paper with this prompt. The last time I wrote for this prompt I am pretty sure that I did my paper on Lord of the Rings versus World of Warcraft. Obviously, this was an awesome paper. I want something equally as awesome this time around. I am thinking about using the fact that the world is going to end in 2012 to my advantage. I am going to find some awesome articles or something of the sort that is telling me that the world is indeed going to end in 2012. This is going to be a great paper in my opinion. I dont really think that the world is going to end in 2012 but I love the fact that there are people that really do believe this. I fully believe in exploiting people inappropriately who believe bogus things. or at least things that i think are bogus. I am not sure of the specific nature of the media I am going to use as representatives of the idea of the world ending. Personally, I think it would be great if I could use a blog entry from someone who is saying how scared they are. Or, maybe I'll use some type of essay explaining exactly what is going to happen to the world. I want the tone of my paper to be shear terror. This may be wrong or whatever but I think this is a fantastic idea. And I guess thats all that matters.

Facebook

Im not really sure if there is even a significant amount of people in college and high school now a days who still don’t have a facebook. I think facebook is a little annoying but that is only because I now have something to do instead of my homework. It definitely makes things harder when you are trying to get your work done. I can spout out some shit that it helps keep people in touch and stuff but that is not the primary reason people use it in mu opinion. I think teenagers are so nosy and self-conscious that they need to support of their peers to feel good about themselves. What I mean is girls make sure to put their very best pictures up on facebook so other people can see how pretty they are and comment on it. People also use facebook to see what other people have been doing without them. I think that this is a big deal because everyone wants to be doing things that make them look cool. Frequently, you see pictures of alcohol, drugs, or scarcity of clothing. This is all because people want other people to notice them and give them approval. They think that if something is sort of taboo then it is cool and they will look cool doing it. I guess I am not different. I like facebook. I am 19. I really think that they go together like peanut butter and jelly.

BLOG!

So, for my first assignment I read my sister’s blog. I didn’t read it because it was interesting, I read it because I was assigned to read a blog and was too overwhelmed with all of the possibilities. So, I stuck to what I knew. After glancing back over the blog to identify (hopefully) some of the rhetorical devices that she uses when she puts up a new post. The problem is, I really don’t think that she is thinking that much about rhetoric when she is posting. I mean, maybe she is but I seriously doubt it. She uses some imagery, the one rhetorical device that you can find almost anywhere. This general lack of English savvy is because her “blog” is less of a blog and more of a facebook. She generally just posts a bunch of pictures of her kids and people comment on them. I suppose she try to write little blurbs about what one sees happening in the pictures, but, even there, the rhetoric is weak. She may throw in a climax to a story or maybe a hyperbole MAYBE personification or a simile every once in a while. But, basically as I said before I doubt she really plans out what she is going to say before hand and even when she is writing it doesn’t think, “WOW I really should use an alliteration right now!” I doubt very many people who are writing casually think about using those specific tools.

So I got my belly button repierced. I got it pierced on my senior trip to Spain and Morocco. I got stuck with the needle 3 times rather than the normal just two. This is not a good thing if you haven’t caught on yet. It kind of really hurt. And I was kind of a baby about it. But that’s okay. Because I still did it. And only complained a little. The guy who did it was really cool. He had both ears gauged but only one gauge in at the time. Anyways all my friends when and took pictures of my face while the needle was through my skin. Lets just say that it is not the most attractive pictures of me. Then we went and got Japanese from a place next door. The guy who was receiving my payment had just got it and it looked so good we just had to go! I got yummy noodles and kept looking at my new piercing. I am really glad that I got it done again. The only bad thing is that I cant stretch my back as much as I want to without pulling on the skin and making it hurt a lot. So I have kind of had some back cramps that I haven’t been able to take care of. I also got it pierced in a different place this time and it looks so much better. It is deeper in my skin this time around.

I have a friend named Megan. She is little. Not that little. Just fun size. She stays at my house a lot. Her boyfriends name is Edward. Yes, like the vampire from Twilight. I call him Ward. I just started to. It was nice. He pretended to be my older brother. But that didn’t work out. We don’t really look a like. At all. I like Mexican food. Like a lot a lot. But I like fake Mexican food. I like Chipotle and Moe’s Southwest Grill. I also have a friend named Kristen. Shes fat and cute. She likes bacon. Lots of bacon. We go to waffle house. And eat bacon. Actually she doesn’t eat it there because she doesn’t like it. I also think that I am hilarious. I guess that you can say this it is a flow or something but I don’t think that it is. I know I am hilarious . but don’t worry I always use my powers for good and not evil. I really want a quesadilla but I doubt that I will get one. I asked some people to get me one but I don’t think that they heard me. So that is really unfortunate. Because I am still hungry. Today is my least favorite of days. This is because I have a class at 5. And it stinks because I have lost all motivation by the time that class rolls around. Oh well today is the last day that I have that class.

I hate cool people. it is utterly annoying when people think that they are really cool and better than everyone else. I mean they are so up tight. They are too embarrassed to do anything in public for fear that people will think it is lame and not cool. I mean people need to not care what other people think. And I think that that confidence is what makes people attractive as a person. It makes you want to be around them. I am not saying everyone needs to be loud and obnoxious, just not concerned with what is cool or the norms. It is said that people act this way because they are self conscious. And this is obviously true. I mean if you aren’t comfortable with yourself you are going to look to others for that assurance. It makes you feel better. Right I am eating pasta. And it is pretty good. And it like to eat at school. I think its because I feel like I am getting food for free when in reality it is prepayed. I think that it is a great idea. It makes you want to buy lots more food. The only bad thing is now I am in the habit of eating at certain times of the day and I eat out of habit instead of hunger. But I guess this isn’t that bad of a thing because I need food to learn and to nourish my brain!

i hate facebook groups. I really don’t understand their purpose. I guess to show people what you like and what you don’t. maybe what you are interested in and it will help find you friends that are also interested in the same thing. I am not saying I am not in any facebook groups because I am, I just join ones that are funny and I laugh at. But honestly once I join them its not like I ever go to their page. I honestly don’t think that I could find their pages even after I have joined them. And why do they have walls? Is it so people can write things like “yeah!” and “I love this!”. I suppose so. But I mean don’t we already know that you like/agree with it if you joined the group in the first place. Anyways, girls are all trying to grow their hair out. And I think that since your hair grows on average only half an inch a month, by the time they grow it out it will be uncool to have long hair and they will have to cut it off. And I will laugh. Wow that sounded kind of mean. I don’t think I meant it to be. I just am just saying it I going to take a long time to grow those locks out. Plus long hair is hard to maintain. So that will probably cause a problem with a bunch of those girls.
