Take My Privacy.
I hate the idea of thinking someone can steal your identity within seconds. It creeps me out. It is so easy to hack into someone account and use their credit/ debt cards. I would not know what to do if that happened. So the title "Take My Privacy," I do not want anyone to do that. I like the idea of being safe and having privacy. I do not want anyone to know my passwords or how to access my accounts. Those are mine and no one elses!!

Me Talk Pretty One Day.
I think it would be crazy to go to another country and try to learn their language let around talk a class that only spoke it. The teacher seems to be harsh at first but in the end we find out that it their method worked. The teacher asked him to basically introduce theirselves and contridicts everything that is said, turing it around somehow. They are always speaking in french so different words were constantly being used. In the end the teachers methods taught the student to speaking french correctly and almost perfect. I think if I had a teacher that constantly contridicted what I said I would not be confindent in learning the language because I would not be doing anything right.

Would the world be bettter without religion?
I am going to be honest and start out by saying I did not understand half of things they were talking about during this debate. Most of it was way over my head. But there were a few things that I did understand so I am going to focus on those. In this debate one side was arguing that the world would be better without religion and the other was debating that it would not be better. One remark that was made stated that without religion people would not know where to seek help. Religious people are always offering help to others. The give, volunteer, and always available during communties projects. They said religion is a type of physologial thinking that is instiled to ones mind. The side that said the world would be better without religion stated that there are so many different gods who is one suppose to choose. That is so true but I believe depending on your religion that is the god you choose to follow you do not worry about the so called "other" gods. Without religion in the world it would be poor, sadder and cruel to all. It is a sense of hope for people. I like who the side that is for religion stated that an atheist is a person who is angry with god. Religion is all about empathy and moral values. This debate was very interesting but by no means changed my thinking on the topic.

After, After Prom.
This picture was taken after, after prom my senior year around 3 or 4 in the morning. This was probably one of the best nights ever. It was so much fun. After prom we all went to after prom and then after prom we went to my friend Greta’s house. All of us couple went and stayed the night. Zach, Me, Lacey, Tyson, Greta, Joe, Emily and Aaron all stayed. We were up all night and no one slept. We ate pizza, played cards and ping pong, watched movies and just enjoyed ourselves. The thing I remember the best from that night was Aaron and Zach playing Wii and on one part they had to shake their butts and did. IT was probably the funniest thing ever to us at the time. I do not know if it was because it was so late or what but we all laughed so hard for the longest time. That night was so much fun because looking back on just last year. I have not seen some of those friends for months. I am just happy that we spent time together and made memories while we could.
Strawberry Festival :)
Everytime I look at this picture I cannot help but laugh a little. This picture was taken this year over spring break at the Strawberry Festival in Florida. The Strawberry Festival is basically a huge carnival. It consited of serveral carnivals rides, food booths, crafts, concerts, shows, a flea markets, and music. We went not knowing what to expect but it was well worth it. The drive was about two hours from where we were staying. Once we arrived we walked around checking things out. Mom picked up a flier and say that there were a few free concerts that day so we picked one and decided to go. There were four different concerts that day. We choose a Country singer named Jay Taylor because he was compaired to George Strait. He is one of my favorite older Country artist and I was so excited, hoping he would actually sound like him. We had never heard of him so we did not know what we were in for. We messed around all day and waited for the concert. We found the place and took our seats. Emily and I found two seats up closer to the stage and mom, dad, and mamaw sat towards the back. They introduced Jay and he came out on stage singing. Mine and Emily’s chins dropped and mouths opened. He was extremely good looking!! We both looked at each other at the exact same time and knew exaclty what the other was thinking. As he continued singing his voice was amazing and definitly made him even more attractive. Once the concert was over he was signing autographs and taking pictures with people. We walked by him and his mom say us walked by and somewhat stare at and she asked us if we would like to get our picture with him we said yes and she took one for both of us! What a kind lady she was. We got our picture taken with him and that made our day.

My Weekend.
This past weekend has been the best! I went home for the first time in a month. That was the longest I have been away from home. I came home Thursday after my classes since I do not have classes on Friday. Friday I went out to lunch with my Mamaw. After my mom got off work we went to walmart and then came home. Mom fixed dinner which tasted so good. Her cooking beats the food on campus any day. Friday night I got to see one of my friends from high school that I had not seen in months. We went and got ice cream at Dairy Queen and then just hung out and talked for a while. It was great catching up and seeing him. Saturday I spent the day with mom and dad in Louisville for my dad’s birthday. We ate at Kingfish and did some shopping. It was so much fun just getting to spend the day with them. Sunday we all went to church and had lunch at my mamaw and papaws house. After I spent some time with them I came home packed and went back to school. I had such a great weekend and would not have changed it for anything. I had definitely missed home and my family. I doubt I go a month again without coming home, it is not worth it.
Mirror, Mirror.
I choose the article titled, “Mirror, Mirror On The Wall, Do The Data Tell It All?” In this article is about someone who keeps track of literally everything. He is addicted to numbers and considers himself a nerd. He keeps track of every email he has ever received and sent, GPS location tracks, Medical test data, “endless” cooperate records, his complete genome, and all the time he has spent exercising. He basically knows everything about himself, and has record of everything.
