History V. Dance?


I hope picking Dance over History A level was a good idea.
I just dont think I'd be able to cope with four essay subjects. I love history, learning about the past and how things have changed since then, but I hate it as a subject. Everything would be fine until it came to exam time. I'd rather be able to pass all four of my subjects with a good grade, than have to barely scrape by with a pass.
I just hope I dont come to regret this decision in two years when I have to start thinking about further education.
But I suppose I should do the things I enjoy, and will carry on enjoying for 730 days.

Born To Die.

The first things we learn are the social skills needed for School...
At school we learn the skills we need for a Job...
Our job pays  for our pension when we get Old...
When we get old, we Live until we Die...

Slightly pessimistic... but rather true.

What I've Learnt From Grimm Fairy Stories | Fredrick and Catherine

1. Catherine is even dumber than Snow-White.
2. This story makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
3.If you roll cheese down a hill to fetch the cheese that fell out of your pocket, your husband will be mad and the cheese wont come back.
4. Thieves dont like it when you join them and ask people if they want to be robbed.

To be quite honest, I knew most of these things before I read this, as im sure the entire population of the world does.
Except mabye that cheese thing... that seemed like a pretty logical thing to do.

What I've Learnt From Grimm Fairy Stories | Snow-White

1. The main protaonists often have to make the same mistake more than once, before someone else saves them from their stupidness.
2. Snow-White's mother didnt have much originality. nor did her father seem to care about her stupid name.
3. Instead of just killing people in a more efficient fashion, antagonists insist on a creative approach that never actually works. First a lace, then a comb and an apple... Why not a knife?
4. Dwarfs are incredibly patient people... who wash peoples faces with wine..?
5. "white as snow... red as blood... black as ebony...". Bit greedy. She should pick one.
6. So after all the dwarfs washing her with wine etc... it took a prince picking her up to knock the apple out of her mouth and wake her up... Okay then...
*I must hasten to add howver that it was still a very good story.

Well this is disturbing...

Apart from the obvious half nakedness, awful singing and age... its quite a good video.

Anyone Else Obbsessed With K-Pop?

I literally just discovered this about 3 hours ago... and I've watched about 3 hours of it on You Tube.
You'd think I'd know better that to buy into this coropatly generated sorry excuse for music... But no.
Apparently I dont.
I might need to learn Korean now...

Clean Your Room.

Why is it that every time I just cannot be bother to walk all the way to my wardrobe and back again... i get abuse from my parents.
If this item of clothing/homework/food is impeding my abilty to fuction properly within the parameters of my bedroom, then I will tidy it up. But if its not... it can stay there for a little while longer.
Now, the problem arises when you are explicitly asked to clean your room.
on the one hand, fellow adolescents may have the same reasoning as me when they come to the conclusion that "it is my room".
However, parents will often rebuke this comment by saying "it is my house" or "im taking you phone" or "you're adopted".
This will generally lead onto a heated discussion, resulting in a loss for one side (usually the parents)
Nonetheless, i do believe that a clean room serves to develop a healthier, more efficient working environment...
But if it means that much to you... Clean it yourself.

Hi.

Why was making this blog so hard?
Okay.
I know the sign up form thing was ergonomically designed to be easy and quick... but no. it wasnt.
And whats with the word verification thing?
something to do with stopping computer programs from creating accounts, but if a program wants to have a blog, let it have a blog!
Anyway... Hi:)
