Lesson Learned

The other day I made a terrible mistake. When I sat down at my computer on Sunday at 11 pm I should've left my picture project alone... But I didn't, so instead I took pictures off the internet, I plagiarized, and now instead of getting a semi-bad grade I got a 0, a hot sheet, and an 8th hour... I think I learned my lesson and now I have chosen to never cheat again. I hate myself for doing what I did and now I embarrassed myself and shamed my teacher, and now that I did that I am guilty for it. Mrs. DeBolt gave me the quarter award for the best student in her class... And now I shamed myself and Mrs. DeBolt. I am ashamed of my actions but now I have to face it like a man and accept my punishment without any excuses. Now I face my punishment with dignity, respect, and overall shame as to what I did. I think I learned a lesson that I soon will not forget. Because now I broke my top rules, honesty and respect. I told myself respect and honesty are number one, cause then I will almost never do anything wrong. Now I have to be faced with many hardships and consequences for my actions.

Thanksgiving Disaster

For my first Thanksgiving as host, I bought the biggest turkey they had in the store, I was so excited and overwhelmed. I couldn't wait till everyone was sitting down and diving into to my turkey and complimenting me on how good my turkey was. So later when my Turkey was in the oven I realized that I had forgotten to do my science experiment. The experiment was to make a concoction of chemicals that when cooked, solidifies. I did as hard as I could to follow the recipe but when I didn't have one of the chemicals I used a substitute. After I mixed it all together I put it in the oven as the directions said, fortunately the turkey and the chemicals had to be cooked at the same exact temperature. So now as I'm sitting on my couch waiting for all the guest to arrive and the oven to go off, all of a sudden I hear my kitchen explode... I run in as fast as I can to see what happened... Turned out I shouldn't of substituted the chemical and now that I did I had a baked turkey fly across the room... And that's why we all ate hamburgers.

Video Game Addiction

We don't all take it seriously but addiction is a serious thing. When I talk about addiction it can mean addiction to texting, Twitter, Facebook, and more. Some psychologists studied 8 through 18 year old boys and girls who plays video games and had a result of 1 out of 10 of them are addicted. They don't say addicted as in that's the only thing they do all day. The psychologists say it because it's damaging their normal functions like making friends, outdoor activities and more. It is said to also be bad cause of too much exposure to violence. Too much violence can cause bad habits. It also causes lack in keeping up with school work. In the end video games are officially classified as an addiction

Honor Band

Last Saturday I had the privilege to go to St. Gen. as an attendant to Honors Band. Honors Band is when schools from a district nominate their best band members to go to a place and practice all day then put a concert on for their parents. The nominees go to the Honors Band director, they pick people and the people go to Honors Band to practice and put on a concert. It  was honestly amazing to be among the several students picked to go. We played 3 songs absolutely amazingly which would've taken our band class about a year to learn. I can't wait till next year where I will have to send in auditions to attend again.

Saints Row

So two nights ago when I spent the night at my cousin's house, he borrowed my Modern Warfare 2 and he gave me his Saints Row. I've only been playing for two days and I already love it. It's a free-roaming, city, gang, and 3rd person shooter. When you play you end up being in an alley where a gang fight starts, when one gang finishes the other, a member of the winning gang comes up to you and invites you to there gang, The Third Street Saints. After that you do missions and other activities. It gives you a wide variety in character creation too. After you finish the first mission you can hijack cars, start gang fights, evade the police, rob stores, and when you get cars you can store them in your garage and then later go pimp it out at a mechanic's shop. There is so much to do on Saints Row the possibilities are endless! But right now my favorite thing to do is go on high speed chases why the cops try to pin me down. Overall I vote this game a 8/10 because Saints Row 2 and Saints Row: The Third have way better graphics, abilities, customizations, and an overall better gameplay.

Skyrim Fun

Yesterday I was playing Skyrim almost all day. I decided I was going dragon priest hunting. I got about 5 out of 8 of the masks. But the best thing is that I glitched it out and I have daggers that do 500 damage. That's alot! And then I can't even read my armor rating because it's like 6 numbers long! Anyway, I decided after I finish the main questline I am going to restart without doing glitches, I will be a clean man. I am level 81 and all my perks are 100, due to the Oghma Infinium Glitch. I am going to kill everything in one hit because I am just so strong. When I am bored or done with this profile then I will finally start over without cheating. I feel bad that I cheated so now my goal is to do the whole game again but without cheating. If not then I will just keep doing quests, and if I'm still bored I will play my modded save. With all perks unlocked and everything unlocked. Anyway I just had alot of fun playing Skyrim yesterday. And remember, keep that knee safe from flying projectiles!
