The problem solver

I’m a book, an extremely large book. Why a book you ask? It’s simple, ignorance. Ignorance may in fact be worse than cancer. At least cancer is treatable. Another reason is what can’t you learn from a book, besides of course common sense. No matter what, if we have ignorant people in this world, there will always be blood. Let’s try war for example. Our troops were being fed ignorant facts about the Muslim faith and the Arab people. So, naturally people of the Muslim faith or Arab people would be pretty pissed. If ignorance isn’t stopped it will lead to many future wars. Not only within the people of the Middle East, but with all races around the world. It wouldn’t be fair to say that the United States are the only ignorant people in the world, but we have proven it time after time. Whether it be an ill-advised comment by a president or congress member or even an on air personality, people will be ignorant. It’s like the old saying, “Boys will be boys”, but it’s a lot more serious. People should read me. I’m the end of ignorance. And who ever said books were dumb?

Baths

Why is taking a bath, for two-year-olds, the equivalent of the apocalypse. I really don't understand. They absolutely love going to the pool, and running in the sprinkler when it’s hot, but they just sit and bawl in the tub. What could possibly trigger their panic reflex and send them on a hell-bent trip of making my life absolutely miserable. Does it have something to do with the water of the lighting, or is it more of trust issue. I really don't get it, before the bath they are fine and dandy. After the bath, they are happy as can be. But there’s is something so bizarre about the five to ten minuets between start to finish that is so traumatizing for the little ones that they have to scream at decibels greater than a rock concert. Maybe I'm over reacting about this cause the darn kids I babysit yelled and screamed at me for ten minuets straight to the point of the deafening of my left ear, but somewhere is the answer to this mystery. I'm sure one day I will find it, but in the mean time, I'm leaving the baths to the parents, but I can't be completely mad at these children. They have helped me in very important one way. Birth control.

Right Now

Why are people always demanding thing be done right now? What ever happened to the olden days, when things were done right? What ever happened to quality not quantity? These are all questions i have for my fellow 15 year-olds. It seems as you grow up its the more you have, not the best you have. Take Christmas for example every kid on the block wants fifty billion things. When in reality they only get four or five. Also, fast food, what the heck kind of crap are we feeding ourselves. When has a four minuet burger ever tasted good. Time is everything to people. It only seems fair to say that we hurry around all day to sit and wait. We hurry our morning routines, take a light breakfast, and then sit in traffic. We should go back to a simpler time. When people did everything face to face. When people took time out of their day to relax. Why do we need to be high-strung all the time? Well, it beasts me.

Journey

If i were to take a trip anywhere in the world, it would be Zanzibar island. I know you're all expecting to read a huge detailed explanation as to why i would like to visit, but i simply want to go because it sounds sweet. Just say it to yourself "Zanzibar." Exotic... right? Though my lack of detailed research, i can tell you this. My all time favorite journey was to Krabi town in Ao-Nang Thailand. My parents say it was like the old Cancun, its still simple and not commercialized, we got to take it all in. The beach was worth the trip alone. The sand whiter than snow, the water bluer than Thomas the train, and the scenery, OH GOD THE SCENERY!! All in all, i'm still a kid. Life's course is one BIG journey, and i'm glad i'm along for the ride. Well thats it.
