• Aug. 17, 2009 - Socialism

*EDIT*

Please note that I will respond to your comments on this topic by posting comments on this blog. If you don't hear from after you leave a comment, it's because my response is here (and if it's not here it's because I'm lazy lol) It just seems more logical to keep the conversation in one place.

So tomorrow officially marks the start of  a new school semester for me. I've been doing some of my subjects for almost a week now, but tutorials begin tomorrow and that's when I'll start everything. I love the homeschool co-op thing (I say thing because it's actually classified as a private Christian school) we're with. It allows me to play sports, take classes, and have friends. Well, more friends anyway. Which brings me to my topic this entry--no, it has nothing to do with socialist government, that was just a clever title. I know not everyone on this site has the advantage of a co-op... Thing. So how do you socialize and make friends?

Do you consider yourself to be social and able to function well around others? Do you think being homeschooled has helped or hurt you in this area of life? Are there times when you've wished you weren't homeschooled?

I'm not asking this question so that I have an answer to give someone who objects to homeschooling--though if the answers I get are good, by all means, I will use them. Their is a belief among some that those who learn in their homes are backward and shy, but this post isn't about convincing them, you, or me that this thought is wrong or right. I'm simply starting a conversation. I DO expect a response. Seriously, someone pick up on this. I mean it.

Peace out my hippy friends!

• Aug. 14, 2009 - Oh, Yet Again...

Yes, I'm writing another entry. I seem to blog, then stop blogging, then come back and blog again. It's a vicious cycle haha. The reasons for the inconsistency of my posts--or the consistency of my breaks (depending on how you look at life)--is that I get tired of blogging. Just burned out on not having anything to write about, or not writing when I do have something intersting to say. This too is a vicious cycle haha. However, for all my lack of posting in the past months, I enjoy writing.

That's one reason I'm back (again). Another is that I want to be a better writer, and nothing makes a writer better like writing (interesting concept, don't you think?). So maybe my entries will have a little more substance to them from now on.

Now that I've covered explanations and such, I'm going to eat lunch. Oh, and by reading this, you are legally bound to comment me and tell me how overjoyed you are that I  have once again illuminated the dark cave that is my weblog, exposing the wonders of moss, bats, undeground streams, and eyeless fish existing within.

• May. 19, 2009 - Hello

Hello friends, recently I have not blogged at all, but I'm back now, and school is out, baseball's almost over, and I have more time. I still plan to right more on the subject of that video, but not now. By the way, thanks very much to all of you who gave feedback.

 

Peace

         Watch this and tell me what you guys think, I won't state my opinion about what Mr. Obama said until later (I plan to write an uncharacteristicly long entry on this), but I really want your input.

Check out this video I found on tangle (formerly Godtube), I enjoyed it, and it's funny and clean. Click Here
