How to survive a camp full of GIRLS!

       First of all if you are a guy as soon as you realize that there is only girls there run you little butt home as soon as possible. Just saying you don't want to be around a group of outrages, crazy girls.

STICK TO ONE PERSON

  • Stick to one normal person that doesn't scream just for fun
  • Hang around someone that doesn't like hanging around whack jobs
  • I stick to my best friend that is in my church most of the time because she is not that insane 
  • Try to make friends just only get close to one and one only!!!
  • Try not to scare them away if you one of the insane people that like to yell and say random thing at random times
  • Just remember to go to the most normal person to hang out with or you mine as well go home when your safe
HOW CRAZY YOU SHOULD BE TO FIT IN

  • Well most of you know me how insane I am, that is more of the normal type at camp (I'M THE ONE WHO WROTE ON RANDOMNESS)
  • So you need some weirdness to you 
  • At of a scale from 1 to 10 you would have to be a 6 or 7 at least because they are like a 12 or 13 and yes that makes sense 
  • Just don't hang around them to often because they will get to you and you will be at crazy numbers 12 or 13
  • Try to stay with in a fairly normal rate so you don't go insane
  • Over all just try to have fun because it is not that bad when you realize how much fun your having
NEVER START SINGING JUSTIN "BEAVER"

  • Don't sing Justin"Beaver" because they will be screaming their heads off or they will be trying  to kill you because they hate him 
  • A little tip don't ever sing that in front of me because I might just rip your head to pieces 
  • Don't wear a Justin "Beaver" shirt either they might kill you for it 
  • You know what don't even mention him or think about him because is swear they can read your mind!!!
  • Try to avoid any thing Justin "Beaver", don't comment on his awesome boyfriend jacket just nothing Justin "Beaver"
BE RANDOM 
  • Be outstandingly random when you are at a girls camp but not to bad or they will think your weird when they are the weird ones
  • I would say to say at least 3 random things a day. Like if you are talking about the clouds or some thing then just be like "I LIKE ICE CREAM"
  • Oh and if you say that you like ice cream they might bring it to you that is what has happened to me be for
  • The girls often like to talk about ponies so that is a good topic to bring up randomly
  • What ever you do don't bring up any guys you like because they most likely will kill you for him or tease you about him for the rest of the week
  • Don't talk about sports either because they might shun you for just saying the word sport
GO HIDE YOUR SELF
  • If your not a peoples person then this is what you need to do you can hide your self in a tree, in a corner, in the bathroom, or in a car
  • When you hide in a tree you are very exposed and if any one sees you there they will talk to you for hours and you will be most likely stuck in the tree
  • I have grown to hiding in a corner because it is a very blind spot so when some one comes in you cabin they don't see you
  • Everyone needs to go to the bathroom at one point so if you in there you will most likely be seen by everyone so it is not the best hiding spot for everyone
  • I love hiding in my moms car because she doesn't go in there all week and no body thinks to look there and then you can also lock your self in there
  • Oh and if you find your self crying in one of these spots it is completely normal for a person that is not insane 
HAVE LOTS OF ENERGY
  • You have to have a lot of energy because you won't be able to keep up with them the hole week
  • You will be exhausted during your free time you will try to sleep but you won't be able to because everyone around you has the energy you don't and will be like hey want to do this hey want to do that 
  • To keep up your energy with everyone else I would say eat as much as you can that will be your life saver and don't stop eating when you are full just keep stuffing your self 
  • An other thing is sleep when they tell you to because you won't be able to get up in the morning 
  • If you go to a camp like the one I did then you get up at 5o'clock and you do exercise and then you go eat breakfast then you do more exercising go on a hike to a lake canoe and then have lunch 
  • So try to keep that energy up and try not to cry every day, you will be more happy that way
If you go to and all girls camp good luck and i really hope those guys that some how end up even seeing a girls camp run for your life please!!! The best tip to give you is don't ever go to an all girls camp.

How to Survive Middle School

Middle school, a hard place for any kid. To survive these two or three years of your life you must follow these steps: follow the school rules, don't get into trouble, make friends, stay out of peer drama like fights or break ups, and do your school work. Follow these steps and you'll survive junior high.

You survive middle school by following the rules and not getting in trouble. These steps are important because they keep you from getting suspended, therefore actually letting you go to middle school. Surviving middle school means getting through it without too many regrets or bruises. So don't get in trouble and ruin your chances of getting into high school.

Two of the most important middle school survive skills are staying out of other people's problems and making friends to make middle school barable. Middle school drama can be the worse, it causes most of the problems in school besides gossip. To survive middle school without too many problems, is to stay out of people's business, it'll save you from getting in trouble or getting beat up. Everyone has to have friends. Someone to talk to and be there to help you. Having friends make middle school more worth it and not boring. Don't be shy, make friends, they're good to have. Survive middle school!

 The last step to surviving middle school is to do your school work. Most important because you can't leave middle school without passing 7th and 8th grade. You must survive middle school by doing all your school work. Survive!

Group Work is Legendary!!!! [No Lie!]

picture by : sparklefish        
               Group work is amazing, but i completely get that it has its flaws. Like the fact that there's always one person who does nothing, and someone who wants to take control of the whole project, and there is always a me in the group some one who does their part of the work and has it done on time and  asks a few questions along the way. How ever the fact that you don't have to do all of the work by yourself is the best, I love it. It has its ups and downs but its still pretty amazing.

      I had this one experience where we had to draw a bunch of pictures and it was very difficult and at the end we actually had fun doing something for history. As you can see in the picture above group work has a lot of pieces to put together and there are way more pieces to put together and half of them don't work but you have to think about the fact that you dont have to do all of the work alone.

     I like to work with groups better than by myself it helps certain people to work together and its a great skill for the work place. and it's even better for the students now a days. This is why i think group work is amazing. It has so many resources and its also good for lazy people who don't want to do all of the for themselves.

Propaganda

Title: The Poisonous Mushroom

Description of the Propaganda
In this piece of propaganda it shows a woman with her three children looking at a statue of Jesus on the cross. It says in German next to the picture that, it urges the children "When you see a cross, then think of the horrible murder by the Jews on Golgatha."

Message to the People
The message of this is to tell the people that Jews are the reason Jesus died.

Technique 1
Simple. Its targeted at children, who love Jesus. Well the Jews killed Jesus so we don't like them. Right? No.

Technique 2
BIG. They killed Jesus. Murdered him. Stuck nails in him. That is a pretty big thing to deal with.

Fill Up Mah Cup!!!

There has been a lot of debate going around if the drinking age should be lowered or if it should stay the same. I believe it should be kept at the age of twenty one. It has done anything bad for anyone.
It shouldn't be lowered because keeping the drinking age at 21 has saved lives and hasn't done any anything wrong by keeping it this way. So why change it?

The main reason I agree with this side of the debate is because in the article it stated that"the national highway traffic safety  administration estimates that raising the drinking age to 21 saves about 800 lives a year." Why would you want to lower it and have those lives lost? Imagine if that was your life that was taken, or a friend or family members life. Why take those lives away if they could be saved? Some may think 800 lives is not a lot, but it's not something you could care less about like squashing a bug, it's somebodies life.

Some people say it should be lowered because there is no evidence that it harms them intellectually or behaviorally. Okay that might be true but, what about their health and body? So many people have died, and almost bled to death, from drinking to much because their throat has burned out. And it does effect you behaviorally because when your drunk you don't have control over your senses and you will misbehave. What if you get in a car crash? Yeah that's what I thought, you didn't mention that did you. 
If we lower the drinking there will be much havoc among society. Keeping the drinking age at 21 has saved lives and it could save you too.

Group Work

Is group work good or bad? It can actually be both depending on who is in your group. Based on my group work expirences, I think working in a group is mostly bad with only two good thing about it.

Group work is bad because you have to depend on other people to get their part of the job done. I admitt that if you have good responsible partners, group work would be ok. But from my own expirence working with a group, my patners did not do their part and the whole project got a bad grade. After that I really just wanted to work on my own.

Working in a group is also bad because you could get stuck with all the work while your group members get credit for your work. It just makes me mad when people just sit there and expect you to do all the work for them. Group work can really suck when you end up with all the work.

The only good things about group work is having a hard working, supportive group that will do the work right and take things seriously. Only then is group work benifial.

Group work is also good when your group copperates with each other and gets along. If a group can't decide on anything, the whole project is ruined.

Group work has both is good and its bad sides.

The Dooms of Group Work

Photo by: EU Social
People say that working in groups can be a fun way to socialize and split up the work on difficult projects. Yeah right. This only happens when you have the perfect group of people. Which never happens by the way. The perfect group would be people who split up the work evenly, and each do quality work, not just something put together last minute.

The reason I hate group work so mush is because when I was in elementary school I had a teacher who absolutely adored group work. I was like if you didn't want to work in a group it was the end of the world for her. This wasn't my favorite teacher, I can tell you that. I preferred to work by myself, and I still do, so every time we had a project it was, "Okay everyone find a project partner!" While I stood in the back of the room and looked around, and when asked who my partner was I would just give a simple one-worded reply like "Myself." She just stared at me like I had some sort of flesh eating disease. Eventually at the end of the year, she gave in and I finally got to work on a project by myself.

 I also despise group work because, when I did have to work with someone else they either never did it or it was really crappy work. So, I ended up turning in a lot of half done projects that year, but I did still get a good grade because I would always rat out the other person out of anger.

I've never really had a good experience with group work, well maybe a few were pretty good, so maybe I am a little biased, but all I know is that I DESPISE GROUP WORK!!!
