thexhrisgalli: OKAI HW START!
emmerlayys: no christian, i don’t have the willpower.
thexhrisgalli: but that’s a divide by 0 error in life
thexhrisgalli: it’s a math postulate that as emily takes greater amounts of AP her will power to finish hw begins to approach infinity
emmerlayys: it begins to…
yeah just so everyone knows i ended up proving her point. fail? i think not. i just succeeded in a way i didnt expect.
There is no such thing as ‘tears of happiness.’ We cry not because we are upset, but because unpleasant feelings are stirred up inside us at the occasion of a happy ending.
We cry at the endings of happy movies because they conjure up an idealized world of kindness and love that we once, as children, believed possible. Children don’t usually cry because are not yet disillusioned about their own possibilities.
When we cry at weddings, graduations, bar/bat mitzvahs because of our own repressed anxieties about the past (why wasn’t my wedding as joyous?) insecurities about the present (why haven’t I found my true love like the bride and groom have?) and fear about the feature (how will I survive when my children leave the nest?).
So there you go, we cry for ourselves at happy endings. Thats actually really depressing.
Freshmen: find your place guys. halls and courtyard are not all that great spots. too trafficky and you’ll be bound to get yelled at.
Sophomores: eh whatever, i have no major problems.
Juniors: It’s AP American Literature or APAL. You guys do not have AP English please stop calling that you’re annoying a bunch of seniors. APENG is a senior course at OHS.
Odd: FitNWell, AP Gov, TA
Even: Physics, English, AP Cal
i am satisfied.
It’s only the 2nd day of school, and I’m feeling completely restless. I don’t know if it’s just the fact that we’re back at school, but it’s crazy. I can’t even concentrate on my APUSH notes..
As of today, I don’t have a lunch, but I get out early. I guess that’s kinda lucky..? I need to drop…
I STILL HAVE MORE APUSH STUFF FOR YOU
What did i do this summer?
Everything i could have ever wanted out of a summer. I finally was able to find a job, i’m learning how to drive, i saw my friends more than any other summer, and i can never forget the times i had with my babe. Sure towards the end there were a couple of let downs and disappointments, but i can’t stay mad over that crap. there is no point. i really did miss seeing everyone though. call me crazy but i miss being productive and using my brain. it’s worth much more than mindlessly scanning back and forth between tumblr facebook youtube and such. like the other day i was able to finish three pages worth of essay while talking to three people on aim within 2 and a half hours. freakin’ emily this summer, learned a lot from her. also got back in touch with a few other friends. devin and i caught up in supernatural. and cousins and i really upped our game in melee. oh and the yoo bros. austin is going down. summer homework wasnt too bad this year either. everything was pretty simple and didnt ahve too many arduous tasks to accomplish.
Alright let’s begin senior year! I’m beginning a video project that will document change throughout the whole school year. Please don’t be surprised if i ask you to say a few words to me and my camera. hm… i still don’t know my schedule thanks to communicado being scrapped. but i didnt get a call or anything regarding schedule complications/changes or classes being too full, so i’m assuming i got my TAPE schedule+APs. whew. last stretch. i kinda don’t want it to end, but at the same time i want to experience the struggle to adulthood. i stand here at the precipice, the beginning of the final frontier. what do you call this? it’s like the moment before you unwrap the foil to the tasty burrito inside. idk. sorry for not being eloquent about it. but really, i’ve waited for this my whole life and i don’t know what to say. i guess i’ll just dive right in, do my best, and be myself. i’ll see you guys on the other side.
So, I have no idea how to get around Tumblr… and I’m trying to figure it out as I take a break from my extra credit homework for APEnglish. I’m almost done - really, I only have three or four more questions to answer and that’s it - but all the words are blurring. I’ve also noticed that I have…
wow that’s a lot of AP. and you’ll get used to tumblr. you’re probably overthinking things. to compensate the lack of thinking youre putting into hw
…
My beliefs in her words.
Right there with you.
real words .
“If God really loved everyone, he’d learn to forgive them for their sins, even if they don’t believe in him” Your even lucky enough your still alive just for saying that. God forbids homosexuality so that a…
ok time to jump in on this. Jasmine i hear ya. week after week i sit and listen to the propaganda, thinking to myself the many arguments that would prove the speaker wrong and probably give everyone in there a heart attack.
You also have to take into consideration that all religions are different, even the ones that are labelled as “Christian.” You have roman catholic and roman orthodox under catholic. then even under protestant you have hundreds of interpretations leading into presbyterian, lutheran, 7th day advent, latter-day saint. there are many out there that today it’s difficult to really put everything into perspective in terms of category. beliefs are solely up to the individual. it is THEIR choice to pick and choose what they believe, or blindly follow what is fed to them. it’s all a matter of how much faith they give, and how much faith they have in themselves. some people need god or religion to remain stable and keep morals, it keeps them happy and sane knowing that someone has taken care of them. what would those people say to this? that their one true haven is being refuted by another human being? can’t be good.
i’m not going to pull any bible crap and context out to prove any points i have.from what i’ve seen so far many questions that have risen ask why things are like this or that. to answer why these things are preached in church, you’ve also got to look into history. the bible nowadays has been editted several times in the past few hundred years. there was actually a time when the roman catholic church reformatted the whole structure of religion. more recently if someone does not appreciate a religion what is to stop them from creating a new one the suits a different mindset? it’s the reason why we have so many controversies about gay rights, and women’s societal norms. the powers that existed in the past had such strong influence that their beliefs became the what the churches taught. and the church was the only main form of education back then. scary right?
you might think i’m a total nerd for knowing this but if you’re really interested in finding answers you do end up going this far into it. oh and to add some trolling to this, like you said, post is called “your VIEWS on religion.” Not, why or why don’t you believe in god. or what you’re religion is. it specifically asks how you view religion as a WHOLE. silly junior the question asked for something broader than you had answered.
i can officially say.. I’M DONE WITH AP BIO SUMMER HW! :D WHOOOOOOOOO, TIME TO PARTAAAAAY!
