Stupid Kids

Okay so my next two weeks are mega busy and I know everyone would be so disappointed if I did not write anything. So, if you do not hear from me in the next two weeks, know that I have a 1000 point Spanish test and it will be taking all of my waking hours. There is something here at this school that I have noticed and am  little tired of.  I have a lot of classes that you  can state your opinions, and what you think, and what you can do differently in the world.I love these classes, but the people in them are know it alls! Normally I am not against these things, and I would say I am pretty open minded,  but lately there are those kids that think that they know everything.They get all enthusiastic about how much they know and how much you do not know, and how much they know and are better than you. I really could care less abut your know it all comments, give me facts, and let me make my own opinions. I have absolutely no interest in what they have to say, and the sooner they realize this, the easier it will be for all of us.  The reason I am saying this is because there is this one kid in my class who is writing a book about all he knows about the world, which I am pretty sure is nothing. I have two classes with him, and he is one of those guys who tries to shove his beliefs down your throat. He starts his comments with " Well, the fact is" or in my interpretation " Well, I am a jerk who knows more than you stupid kids, and I am going to talk for 10 minutes about how much more I know than you!" Really dude?? I cannot tell you how many kids I have talked to lately that I want to stop them and just say " Hey I do not care" but I know that is rude. People also think I am really dumb. In Spanish class I say something that I know is right because I have been studying a lot, and they are like "Uh... NO that is not right." Then the teacher says the right answer and I want to tell them I was right and rub it into their faces. I do not do that because I am a  better person, and know gloating will do nothing. Not really I would say that, but sometimes I really am wrong and I do not want to ruin my reputation.  I actually have been trying to be a little nicer lately, but it is hard. When you have 19 years of rudeness to get over, it takes quite a bit of work, and I do not think I am ready for this. I have enjoyed most rude things I have ever said. I know that sounds wrong, but sometimes I think I am pretty clever with my rude behavior.Some of it was just plain rude, and lets be real here I probably should have kept that crap in my head.  However, I know that to get through life I need to be at least a little kind to others. So here is my goal kindness. I will only show my rudeness on this blog so that my readers will not suffer. It is not fair to make you suffer for my own purposes. This weekend we are leaving to Ogden, Utah because it is my sisters birthday. Chances are I will have something even better to blog later, so read on Sunday night if you so chose!

My Super Power

Okay lets be honest here, every week it gets harder and harder to put thoughts down onto paper. I have a certain reputation and I cannot ruin that with a crappy post that actually talks about my life, even though this week that is exactly what I am going to do. We got free into the zoo and saw all the cute monkeys and the other animals that inhabit that zoo. It just so happens that I have nicknamed all my family members with an animal nickname. Alex my brother gets the owl because he is a know-it-all. Katey  my sister and her fiancee Ryan get the mouse because they both have small noses, and they look like little cute mouses, it just fits them. You have to see them to know. Mckenna my friend gets the giraffe because she has a freakishly long tongue and is taller than my brother.Molly who at the beginning was just a roommate and has moved into the family zone gets the goldfish because she remembers nothings. Sometimes we try to trick her and tell her that she did or said something when in truth she did none of it. SUCKA!!! I do not think Molly thinks it is so funny, but the rest of us do. Now, you cannot  forget about me. Although I did not name myself, because I would call myself the Hippogriff because I think those are awesome animals. But, no they nicknamed me the mule because I am very stubborn. It's true though,  I can be, just  ask the owl! In truth I have no idea where I came up with these animal nicknames but I have a certain power with nicknames, they just stick! It is quite a power, I could join the incredibles, or even the X-Men if I wanted to, but I chose to a regular schmuck, it is way better that way. But back to the original story, we had a blast at the zoo even though compared to so many other zoos I have been to the Idaho falls zoo was a baby zoo. Our adventures did not stop there, because  on Saturday we went to the ice caves and the civil defense caves, the only cool thing that is offered in Rexburg! It was seriously one of the coolest things I have ever done. We got to slide on our butts and try to fit through these tiny holes, and spelunk on very dangerous surfaces.I am definitely going again.In the caves it was freezing, and pitch black, but when we walked out it was bright and warm. While we are in this very dark and cold cave, we met up with these kids. There were twelve of them, and between the twelve of them they had about two brains. They had only brought one flashlight! Really??? That was the dumbest thing that they could have done. I bet they said " Hey lets go into a pitch black cave with only one flashlight, and wear shorts in a cave that has icicles hanging from the ceiling. " Good idea idiots. Enough about dumb kids,  that was not my last time in those caves, but it was the last time with crappy shoes. I am paying for it with pain in my body. My Bad!! But my life is full of adventures and the more dangerous the adventures are the more i love them.
