Welcome one and all to the show

I haz time to write a blog! Huzzah!

so today im going to talk about pressure

so we will start with our school systems. school puts an immense amount of pressure on the students. You need to get into University to get a good job! College is for the people who can't get into University! You need an 80 which is an ABOVE AVERAGE by provincial terms to get into University and get out with and AVERAGE paying job. to me, its all a load of horseshit. as are these errors that keep popping up as im typing : | anyways, so to me College in this day and age is for more practical jobs, which Canada is actually short on. Chances are, if you go to college, you will find work easier than University. Want to know how many teaching jobs there are right now? very few, because people like some teachers at my school teach until they are 80 and block more qualified and exciting teachers who deserve that job more than they do anymore, are clogging the teaching jobs. And that brings me to another random point... Cloggers. you know what im talking about. those idiots who clog the hallways, stand right in the middle and talk with a friend, walk on the wrong side of the hallway, walk right into you, text while walking and run into people, have no regard as to if they are in the way or not... seriously people just get on the right side, move, and when you get to your destination you can stop. you cant walk across a highway and expect not to get hit during rush hour, just like you can't walk across a hallway and expect not to get in the way. so move. please.
k back to pressure, so in North America and Asia they put alot of pressure on school and education. The difference is, in Asia, the kids there are actually concerned about their education. they care. we dont. why? i dont know, because they know that their parents are paying a shit ton of money to send them to school and if they fail they are screwed. they know that education is not appreciated until after the fact, they know that it is the key to your future. dont know physics and math? guess what, your not going to become an astronaut like you always wanted. they want to achieve these dreams, and it is more relevant to them there, than here. What i find really cool is that in Norway, or Sweden, or some country in Northern Europe, i actually think its multiple countries, the kids there actually have less homework, but their marks are 50% better. why? better teachers, which brings me back to the issue of teachers retiring and opening the field. Guess what Mr or Mrs shitprick, your 75 years old and your time is done. im sorry, but you have had your time to educate the youth of tomorrow, now its time for someone more qualified, like you were back in your day, to teach.

K well thats my rant.

so the song of the day today will be a live performance by Linkin Park on their tour Road to Revolution. They performed "Pushing me Away" which is off their debut album Hybrid Theory. This whole live album is incredible, i cannot wait for their thousand suns cd tour to come out. I highly recommend it, Linkin Park puts so much effort and emotion into their music, and this is clearly evident in this. the song Pushing Me Away is usually faster paced, but Linkin Park slows it down for this live performance, and turns it into a ballad. it shows Linkin Parks incredible diversity and adaptability, they do this with many songs and each time they play any song its a little bit different, which i really appreciate. Here is the Link, i love this song I cant say it enough

so that is all for today, and goodnight all. remember to compliment people, it helps. more than you could ever know. trust me.

Peace out

the rich stay rich, the shy stay shy

Good news everyone! due to people not talking to other people because they don't know them the shy stay shy! this really makes me mad. me, being shy myself, have a hard enough time even looking at people i don't know yet alone talking to them!(especially girls) so what my blog is about today, is about people who aren't shy, need to talk to people who are.
So here's an analogy for you... say your making scrambled eggs. you get the eggs out of the fridge, but instead of cracking them and cooking them, you simply just place it on the counter, and leave it there. so your eggs don't get cooked and you can't eat. this, is easily comparable to shy kids. you have a shy kid in your class, you sit beside them and you rarely talk to them because you think they are awkward. if you never crack open the egg, it wont be scrambled will it? if you never talk to a shy kid, they won't talk back will they? fucking logic people... just think about how difficult it must be for some people(including me) to openly talk to people in public they don't know. its nearly impossible. you know, people have always told me that i need to break out of my shell, and rightfully so they are correct 100%. but say im that egg on the counter. if nothing else helps me, im just going to sit there and rot until someone throws me out. you wonder why kids are committing suicide nowadays...they have nothing to connect with, they have no one there to help them break out of their shell and truly be all they can be. so they theoretically sit there and rot, and finally, are thrown out. its depressing, i know. but people these days (especially the more popular kids) need to crack some eggs(theoretically). they don't have to fully crack the egg. but they just need to help, make the first move.... you know? you think they are awkward...but in reality most are just scared out of their minds and don't know what to say, or what you think of them, or what will happen next... their low self esteem plummets further if you do nothing.

todays blog is short, but this is what is on my mind today. tomorrow, im going to talk about the slogan i have for this blog...the difference between love and madness is but a shade of grey.

Todays song of the day is by Rise Against. ive done a song by them already, but they are a great band in my opinion, tons of passion in their work. the song is called "Survive" and is off the album "The Sufferer & The Witness" Ive been listening to this song a lot after i bought their album last week, and hearing this song many years brings back a bit of nostalgia. anyways here it is

Rise Against "Survive" off the album "The Sufferer & The Witness"

Well thats all for now, ill cya later. remember to compliment someone !

So Long

Is High School the best years of our lives?

Hey everyone welcome back

So today is a pretty simple question... Do you believe that high school is the best years of our lives?
in my opinion, no. and for good reasons.
coming from my experience, high school has too many people pushing you in too many directions. what do you want to be? what university are you going to? blah blah blah... and the pressure is enormous in grade 12... this is where we make it or break it. also, theres way to much drama. whether it comes from friends, from relationships, from parents, teachers... everything seems to build drama. lastly, i believe that high school is a transition period from adolescence to adulthood. when your in high school, i think everyone thinks that they know more than they actually do. like they are some sort of prophet that knows all( theoretically speaking) and this cannot be true because when your in highschool, you have only been alive for less than 20 years... thats not nearly enough time or experience to know all. when one is an adult, they have lived long enough and have truly figured themselves out, they know who they are, they know where theyre going, and they learn to deal with their past maturely.
This is why I say, that Elementary School is the best years of our lives. there isnt too much drama, you know everyone because the schools are generally smaller, and you only have one teacher for the entire year with the same 30 classmates... so you get to know people more. everyone is more tightly knit. also, recess is another big reason for me, able to just take a 15 minute or 45 minute lunch break was the best thing to take a break from schoolwork and just have fun with your friends... lastly, elementary school for me anyways was a time to just have fun.. i didnt care what i was going to be, i didnt care if some bitch called me something i didnt like... i just cared about my friends, and i just wanted to have fun. and i did. i had alot of fun. im always going to miss elementary school dearly... high school (dont get me wrong im sure when im older i will miss it too) wasnt a great experience for me personally anyways...
so what do you think?
Ok so today's song of the day is "Coming Undone" by Korn, a band Ive really grown to love and respect over the past few months(thanks to some friends). there are much better songs by Korn, but this one is still good... better than most actually. so here it is

again, i encourage people to compliment someone on something atleast once a day... it makes a huge difference and its a great way to make people feel better, to build their esteem and to make you feel good. who knows, you might get some compliments back for saying them!
Anyways, thats all for now. I got an english essay to revise after my english teacher ripped it apart.. though i think once the changes are made it will be 80%+ material (well lets hope so anyways)
Ciao, thank you for reading :)
