EVIL

Have you ever really thought about how evil our world is? It's pretty bad. We have people like Hitler, Momar Gadhafi, Osama Bin Laden, and of course the Joker and Lex Luther. Why do people act like they do? Do they just want to be cool? Are they supposed to be all-powerful super beings with a motive to rule everyone? Think about it. Even the bully you pass in the hallway can be considered evil. He is deliberately being bad for a motive; to be cool and try to raise his self esteem. Some evil people actually think what they're doing is good and what everyone else is doing, who they are against, is evil. So that really raises the question of Who's really evil anymore? Are we all evil in our own little way? Are we all saints with different ideas that can differ from others? To me after thinking about it it's really mind-boggling to try to comprehend. We all strive to be perfect, but no one is ever really perfect. Or maybe we are all perfect already in our own little way that varies with other people's idea of perfect, meaning in their eyes you could actually be evil to them, but to others you could be a perfect saint. It's really crazy. I mean there's so many things in this to factor in to find if anyone's really evil or if everyone's a Christmas present sent from God. I could go on and on and on and on and on about it all... But I think blogger only allows you to put in so many characters. So to finally sum this up. What's really evil? Evil is your own personal view that involves your political and religious views. So is anyone really evil. I haven't a clue...

The Scarlet Ibis-Bird-Thing

The Scarlet Ibis is actually about a boy named Doodle and his difficult adventures through life, not an ibis-bird-thing. I have learned much from this story. For instance I did not know there was a bird called a scarlet ibis. But really I learned how you can't push people to do things both of you know the one is not capable of like how Doodle's brother pushed him to be more like a normal boy but ended up killing him in a sense. Sometimes instead of taking a gift and thinking of all the ways this gift could be better, you should just enjoy it how it is and make the best of the time you have it. These are things in life that you can either let it be and enjoy, or ruin for good and never getting the chance to do anything with it at all. Again so goes the story of a young boy named Doodle, but if you would really like to learn a lesson --- take a seat with the scarlet ibis-bird-thing and see if you don't learn anything by the time your done. ;)

LIFE

So you know, life is pretty interesting as an AFE. It's full of perks, like iPads and fun classes. But you know it's not all fun and games. AFE life is very complicated and demanding of my already very low energy supply. As you probably know, being an AFE means you are smart. VERY SMART. So smart that you need to almost always be using your smarticles to help others with equal or fewer smarticles. For example, everyday Joey Dominski, Nathan Nguyen, and I always check our math as a group during resource. It's great because it's a win-win; no one gets wrong answers. But more than once in these groups Joey and Nathan have looked to me for many a right answer, so then I have to explain it to them as well. Not to say that those two aren't smart or anything, because I mean I've looked to them for help in the past as well and they've done well and supplied. Things get just get so tiring and physically and emotionally draining that it gets difficult to keep up in the life of an AFE. Oh, but somehow I manage...

Quizlet VS Word Dynamo

Recently I had the chance to try two internet study programs: Quizlet and Word Dynamo. Both programs are very nice and very helpful. I love the fact that they give you the definitions, which just makes life easier. However, if I absolutely had to pick one to be my favorite, and I know I must, I would have to go with Quizlet over Word Dynamo. Yes Word Dynamo is pretty nice and it is a dictionary.com program, Quizlet, I would say, is equally nice and allows you to use it with your facebook account, which now a days is important to everybody. I also found it pretty neat how you could shuffle through your cards after you made them, so I just found it all pretty great. Listen to me fellow AFES, JUST GO WITH QUIZLET!!!

Computers Learning??????

So in just learned that there's some computers that can type up news articles by themselves????? That almost sounds scary but is really cool at the same time. I mean it's great thatnwe haven designed technology to think like us and be smart, but this exactly what some people have been warning us about since the the beginning of technology. Eventually as computers can get smart and develop their own intelligence....we will end up not being the dominant race. It's not too far away and really the thought freightens me. But at least computers are getting better... So for now... I'm happy. You have been warned.

Blogging

Blogging has been an interesting experience for me so far. It's been pretty crazy at times. Just yesterday it took me almost hour to put up my first post....but I knew what I was doing..... The problem was with the iPads and the Internet here at the school keeping us from having fun. I ended up using my fancy phone after a while...which took even longer because I get know signal in this place.... So I'm just kinda going with the flow and getting it done still as best I can....just hang with me while we work out the bugs. And don't be surprised If I go down with technical difficulties for a day.....it's normal.
