Aquaculture

Posted in Information

Hey everyone!! Sorry I haven't posted for so long, but now I actually have something to talk about!!

Does anyone have a pool? I sure do, and it's a hassle. Last year, we spent $3000 on it and we swam four times!!! Low profit, majorly. So, my dad introduced me and my family to aquaculture.

Aquaculture is where you raise your own fish! Not like your goldfish or anything. I'm saying like the 20 pounders. Major fishing. We are going to grow our own fish!! If it gets too populated in the pool, we just have a fishing party. Whatever you catch, you keep! Cool huh?

Also, we're thinking of putting a greenhouse in the backyard. We'll grow our own fruit and veggies!! I love it!! So cool!!

This is the end of my entry. Hope you enjoyed it.

DISC

Posted in Information

At SLU, I took a personality test called DISC. I'm an S.

D stands for Dominent; D's are controlling, thinks he's always right, and  gets stuff done.

An example of a D is when a D walks into a room full of chairs, he will reorganize the chairs in that room. Just because he can.

I stands for Inspiring; I's are people people, they influence with voice and emotion, the party planner, careless, likes to be involved, and goes with the flow.

An example of I is when an I walks into the room and sees the D moving chairs, the I walks out of the room, gathers his friends together and says, "Lets all move chairs! It'll be great!" So they move the chairs every which way.

S stands for Steady; S's are sincere, makes friends very easy, always has a good reason to influence, possessive, cares, doesn't like deadlines, and is trustful.

An example of S is when an S walks into the room and sees the D and I moving chairs, they go, "Ooooh. I don't think you should do that. Whoever set those chairs up took time to do that. You're messing it up." The D looks at the S and says, "Shut up!" The I looks at the S and says, "Ah, come on, it'll be fun!"

C stands for Correct; C's influence with fact, are orderly, task-oriented, at war with D, is annoying, and thinks everyone but them is wrong.

An example of C is when a C walks into the room, sees the D moving chairs because he can, the I moving the chairs every which way, and the S weeping in the back, he automaticlly yells, "STOP!!! You're all doing it wrong! If you had done it the way I thought up, you would have had a 43% increase in productivity." The D looks at the C and says, "Shut up!" The I looks at the C and says, "Hey, loosen up, it'll be great!" And the S looks at the C and says, "I know. I told them, but they wouldn't listen."

I wish I could give you the test and see for yourself who you are, but it's copyrighted, sorry.
