Yeah...if everything was normal...it would be very...boring. Lol, that's why God created so many different people with different personalities, appearances, etc. Now that's vairity lol. Look at all the different species of beetles. 300,000! (someone would think, do we really need that many lol?). Just my views, no one has to agree .

I agree! If we were all the same how in the world could we live. How could love exist if we were exactly alike? There would be no draw... o well I'm tired and this is where my mind goes... Just meaning that it is a very good thing that we are different. Although when you are talking about beetles, I'm not so sure that we need so many! gosh 300,000 is a bit much don't you think? We would have done fine with 100,000... lol

I agree, completely. We need more creativity and imagination, be unique and independent. About the beetle thing, I don't care how many species there is, they are bugs, and I don't like them, I bet 10,000 species of beetle have died in my pool at one point or another.

A cuddly snake... I have to say that they are not two words that you normally hear together in a sentence all that often... Anyway... lots of bugs!! too many bugs!!! And I don;t really hae a pool so I can't add any more ersonal anicdotes about one, but we have found many strange things in my mom's friend's pool... like dead frogs and huge bugs...scary scary bugs!

Well if you think that smoking is normal if there only in middle school thats what they do. Theres even one guy who says he takes injections to his wrist!!!!It awful but I'm not with that crowd of people. I'm really worried that their going to ask me to start, of course Ill say no but I'm not sure about the other people that I'm Friends with. And one personal got caught by his my smoking and she grounded him for 2 days!!!And hes in middle school with me. Ah thats one reason I don't want to go back to school. -.-

Oh my gosh? Middle School? I was surprised to see it in High School but Middle School? Oh gosh, that just shows you programs like D.A.R.E aren't working. That's scary. Still, this one wonders why anyone would choose to do drugs. To me, it's a road of sucide for I don't know...15 MINUTES of pleasure? And even that so-called "happiness" is empty, temorary, and unsatisfiying. Reminds me of the kindergardeners who curse. Just a vent out indignated rant from Nogoshi .

There were people in our middle school who smoked and did that stuff Kratos... everytime we walked past the bathroom near the art room and the lockers it smelled like smoke... It's horrible but it happened... I agree with you though, doing drugs, your just asking to die... It's so stupid. Life is to short to ruin it by doing that stuff, especially if you want to be anything during your time here! Kindergarteners who curse and first graders who are kissing each other... What is the world coming to!! Let's just go and live with the Brady Bunch! lol

ya I know and guess what it started in elementary school!!!The person just sat there and smiled during dare. I mean how could you just sit there? Ya theres high schoolers getting drunk and all that in my school yet no one seems to tell adults? When I first found out I told my mom and she said "Unless you see them doing it you shouldn't say something." I was like how can I not say something. Its just so frustrating when my mom smokes (she trying to quit =) and she says she hates it everytime she picks a cigaret up. And the injecting thing? All it does is give you AIDS. Whats the pleasure in that. i would rather go swimming or If I'm upset just cry. Not say of instead of crying I'm gonna go stick a needle in me! It so stupid. Yet I don't get why one drug is illegal. In dare, the dare teacher taught us about Why drugs are bad. We All knew this because its repeated every year but he said marijuana(sp?) does bacily the same thing as alcohol. I asked then why isn't alcohol illegal. and he said because it doesn't cause as many bad choices. I said well 1 using alcohol is a bad choice. And so is using the drug. I personally think alcohol should be illegal. But thats my veiw on it.

I have to say, that i didn't pay all that much attnetion during DARE either but that was becuase we had learned the stuff like 50 million times already, and it had already sunk into my head. Others however... yea you get my point. I get the same lecture at home. My parents don't smoke so that isn't a temptation here and my friends dont' either. I have to say, if they did I wouldn't be firnds with them much longer. For the people who do... Find another outlet people!!! There are better things to be doing then getting drunk or high! If you have any kind of ambition you can be safe in asuming that your chances of getting there decrease dramatically they find out that this is what your free time was spent doing! I understand that life is horrible sometimes, but seriously ind another way to deal! alright I'll stop with the sermon... lol

Lota, I didn't use the bathrooms much in Middle School because I tried to avoid them as much as possible. But when I did, they usually had vulgar things written on them (but then again, that's not very susprising anymore).
I too also want achoal illegalized. Thing is, there's just too much of that stuff out there that it would be almost impossible to ban. That and, it's quite easy to make (and there are many out there who won't care if it is banned or not). This, I learned in Honors History (ah, he was a good teacher).
Yes, Lota what is coming to the next generation these days? It's very heart-breaking (and yes, we should join the Brady Bunch lol). Heck, my little cousin (7 years old) said he had a girlfriend.

lol, yes I agree, but we need the oil! If it keeps climbing in price then in the very near future many people will not be able to afford to go anywhere. Hopefully they will get on this alternative very soon, so they can get it out to the public!

I've been watching the news lately and they are showing how people use vegetable oil instead of regular gas oil. Though you need gas for a few seconds to start and turn off your car but one tank of gas can be used for like 3000-4000 miles! Why don't people do more with that? It's a very good idea indeed.
