What is the most dangerous question you can ask?
Okay, I have no idea how to answer this. I ask people all types of random questions, so I don’t know what would be “dangerous”………Hmmmmmm….I guess I would just have to say, the most dangerous question I can ask someone is……”What is your favorite color?” lmao. I have no idea. Apparently teens don’t have favorite colors anymore because usually when I ask I get, “I don’t know! Geez!” or “I don’t have one” or “Colors are dumb”…It’s not a dangerous question and most of the stuff I thought of was kind of inappropriate, so yeah.
Sorry you guys lol.

If the Electoral College was abolished, and people directly elected the President, what should the qualification be to vote in a Presidential Election?
Well in class, we were kind of talking about this. I guess I’m stuck in the middle of the whole thing. I don’t believe the government makes the best decisions, and they’re pretty much speaking for us. As citizens of this country, I think we’re smart enough to make choices for ourselves. Basically, the actual thoughts and opinions get out directly. But you see, in reality things like this don’t go as smoothly as we’d like. There are ignorant people, people who don’t care, and people who just don’t agree with everyone. If it was up to just us, there would be endless conflict. If it’s hard to get 20 people to choose which way to go if they’re lost somewhere, imagine how hard it would be to get hundreds of thousands of people to elect a president. It isn’t so easy, is it?
So this is my opinion. I’m not going to just take the easy way out and say one side of the question is better. I see both, as always. =]

Hey you guys…! I have a question.
“If you could be ANYTHING in the world (animal, other person, plant, etc.) what would you choose…and why?
I would be like a princess from 100 years ago. Mainly because you could like wear those big poofy dresses without looking weird ^_^. I love those dresses, they are so vintage and royal and such, you know? Besides, princesses are always having to go by the rules, I wanna break some!
So give me your answer! GIVE ME IT!!!!! lol in a comment.. =] HaVe FuN

” I have to keep going. I need to keep going. There’s no stopping me. My children are suffering, have suffered, and will suffer. There’s just no stopping me now. Mr. Andrew Jackson made us leave, kicked us out, stole our land. I hold him responsible for the death among us, the people we lost so far. My grandchildren are freezing and stricken with measles and smallpox. Jackson just doesn’t know what we’re going through. I will not give up for my husband, I will keep freezing for my babies and their babies. No one can stop me. Oklahoma, they say we’re going to Oklahoma. ‘What ’bout Miss’pi, mama?’ I heard a small child say, thin with hunger. I don’t believe she’ll make it, no, it isn’t so. It’s cold, freezing cold, and I don’t have anything to give to my people. I was always the one there for them and now I have nothing to give. But no, I will not give up, I will live on for my people, in body and in spirit. I will be with my people at Oklahoma and give them my support. I will be there. Jackson doesn’t want us back, oh no. He’s a greedy man for what he did. Forcing us from what is ours. I am angry, full of fire in the depth of my heart. He has killed many men, many women, many children. Jackson’s people, who support him, they know with their ears and eyes. They know what he did to us, what he was doing. I am so angry, so sad. But I will not give up.
I am not giving up, not with the sickness I have in my soul. The sores on my legs and feet and hands. My painful cough. I will not give up as the sun is burning my back and head. I’m fighting the itching on my neck, face, and thighs. But it seems to be taking over me, spreading on my body. I feel weaker. But I will not give up. Even in spirit.
No I have not given up, I tell you. I am in spirit. Not many of my babies, or their babies have made it to Oklahoma. Only two, but many other children and mothers and fathers. Brothers and sisters and cousins. Aunts and uncles and grandparents. Yes, most of them made it to Oklahoma. And in spirit, I am proud. I haven’t given up. I am, Ahyoka, ’she brought happiness’.”

Well, let’s see…if my name would be a verb, I guess the action would be to say random things…Hah, yeah. All my friends always tell me how random I am. Like one time, I slept over my friend Amber’s house and her brother was playing a video game in the living room while we were talking, then I say, “Hey, I bet you wore your pants on backward once.” Yeah, he just stared at me. lol. But that would be the verb. I guess it would be called “ram-ram-random” lmao.
Asia-verb. to say something random out loud that has nothing to do with what you’re talking about.

I don’t “stay green”. I try sometimes but I can’t stick to scheduled stuff. If I feel like doing something at the moment, I do it, but otherwise, not really. It’s a bad habit, I know. But I do make effort. I try to get my mother and I into recycling and things but it’s a little hard because I’m not so sure if she cares. I care, but I’m forgetful. A few ways I tried and will try harder to stay green are:
1. recycle (obvious)
2. take shorter showers
3. turn off the water while brushing your teeth
4. turning off the lights and TVs when you’re not using them
5. use reusable water bottles and bags
I’m working on the shorter shower and turning off electric stuff, so I’m off on a good start. =]

I have no idea what inspires me right now. Oh wait! I do! Okay so I have read all the books (well almost) by Ellen Hopkins and she is my first favorite author. I know it took me a while to find one, but who cares right? Well anyways, she inspired me to write my own book (which I already have a post on Me Gustan Escribir Los Libros). I would have never started writing a book if it wasn’t for her. Thanks =] lol. So i guess that’s my inspiration.
P.S. lol yeah I kind of noticed my posts were getting a little short.

Well, tomorrow is my birthday. March 23, same as every year. But as they all lead up to this one, it seemed to excite me less and less. Don’t ask why, because I really don’t know. It seems like it’s just another day of the year. But I can’t really celebrate it anyway because I have track tryouts all week. Yeah, less time planning a party date, more time running the track, sprinting my life away. Officially I will be 14, good I guess, but I’m not as happy as I was about it 2 weeks ago. I’m just so busy this month, and I guess it’s time to let my mom stop stressing about my birthday and care more about hers. She’s given up all her birthdays since I was born so I could have fun. I was supposed to be born on her birthday. Oh well, 4 days early isn’t a big difference. I have too much to worry about anyway. I have a scheduled surgery (I just found out) for my hand..I’m wayyyyy worried about getting on the track team (don’t know how rides will work out on that one)..then I need to get stuff ready and a guest list of my hotel party (oh yeah) next month and a small sleepover this following weekend. Yup, that’s busy alright lol. I guess my birthday will be a little different this year; and hey, maybe that’s a good thing.

I would define someone (and I do) by the way they act. If I see someone acting childish and immature, then there’s a chance that they are. That’s mostly why I don’t talk to some of the guys in our school (not anyone in particular…). But anyways, I don’t feel that it’s necessary to go up and ask people what their intentions are, it’s a waste of time, if they’re acting like children/jerks/bullies, then it’s self-explanatory.
For example, if you see a 15 year-old in the hallways in school, throwing things at others and running around, what would you think of him? Would you think, “Oh, that kid is cool!”? I wouldn’t but that’s a personal answer. I know it isn’t right to “judge a book by its cover”, but come on! A first impression means a lot.

Hi! It’s me (obviously) and it’s my birthday (not really but 3/23 is true)! As you can see, it’s 3075 and future birthdays are way cooler than in the 2000s. Seriously. I got this cool new game system called the Vreal. It is soooooo sick! Like when you get video games, you can ACTUALLY be in the game! The graphics are so realistic. You can’t get hurt or anything like that, but it’s a real thrill. They also changed regular movies to like ones where you can pick what the person will do in a bad or cool situation. Yeah, you know when you watch a movie and you’re like, “No! Don’t open that door!”? Well, you can tell them not to! Yeah, cool right? Oh one last thing before I go, they have these awesome cool energy drinks called Sikknez and it’s really healthy, so you don’t crash, and you have on going energy for a long time. But you can still go to sleep if you need. See!? The future is AWESOME!
