Important Issues: Hand Dryers
I really hate things that blow. LOL. Anyways, things that just seem to randomly blow things around really just suck. LOL. Two lame jokes in two sentences. I should stop now. Anyway, the other day I was at Macdonald's washing my hands in the washroom, and I came across the hand dryer. Those things really don't work. They just kind of blow the water around in your hands to different places, so that your palms are damp, but everything else is really wet. Yes, I understand it's "environmentally friendly", but disappointingly ineffective. Luckily, Metrotown has this really awesome hand dryer called the Xcelerator. It is really strong as well as loud, and best of all, IT ACTUALLY WORKS! Anyway, I hope you are enjoying the Olympics. GO CANADA GO!

Dislike!
LOL. LMAO. GG. The number of new phrases born on the Internet are growing and it seems like people are even using them in "real life". One word that has caught on is "dislike". On Dictionary.com, the definition for "dislike" is: "to regard with displeasure, antipathy, or aversion." In other words, not like. Why has this word become so popular? Facebook, of course. One of the many functions of the popular social networking site is that you can "like" other people's posts, statuses, pictures, etc. This inevitably led to people creating groups campaigning for a "dislike" button, which would basically allow a person to disdain or dismiss other people's stuff. WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU WANT TO DO THAT? I can see why Facebook has turned down the notion so many times. Are we really that evil and corrupt? That we would want to give thumbs down to other people. That's pretty jerk, in my opinion.
P.S. Jerk is my new adjective. Spread it around! LOL. TTYL. BB.

Fail(ure).
This blog entry is dedicated to: JASMYN MARASIGAN! a.k.a. NotJasmine
Yesterday at Awana, it was my first time being the games leader for T&T Boys. Understandably, I was quite nervous, although I was doing it with a friend who is also in his first year as a T&T Boys leader. Before we started Games time, we had already talked a couple times about what games we would do and were feeling pretty confident that it would go well. We were going to start off with some running relays, play kingpin, and then a game that my friend had invented. It was going to go perfectly! Oh, what foolish hopes. We got off to an alright start. My friend Jackson got all the kids to line up on their colours and he introduced the first game. It was going pretty well, until it was my turn. I decided that instead of saying a number and then lining up, I would just yell a number and then get the kids to start running. It was a failure. One team got confused and didn't even run. The second time, I called a number that didn't exist. It was pretty embarassing. When we quickly changed games, it didn't go much better. The kids were really loud, and didn't listen at all. Also, some kid threw a ball at my face. The game that Jackson invented was a complete disaster and the kids didn't like it. It was really confusing and even I didn't understand it. One team ended up winning by a large margin. Even the kids said it sucked. It was the perfect storm. I hope I don't have to be the games leader ever again. The moral of the story is: being the games leader sucks, don't ever try it.

Babies and Blogs, blah blah blah...
Hmmm....It seems I have not blogged in a while. BLAH. Blah sounds a lot like blog. I wonder who came up with the word blog? I hope you are wondering too. CAUSE I WILL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW! If you already know, sucks for you. The word "blog" is a contraction of the term "web log." Big whoop. One of the earliest bloggers was Justin Hall, a university student who began keeping an online diary in 1994. THAT'S THE YEAR I WAS BORN. Do you know what this means? I was created to blog. I bet it went something like this:
Mom: Oh snap, look at this! An online diary! We should have a kid so he can make one too.
Dad: Ok, he will be the bestest blogger in the universe! HAHAHA!
Yeah. Pretty lame, huh? Well, I hope you learned something today, cause I sure didn't.
OH YEAH, I ALMOST FORGOT! Babies is in the title of this blog entry because I was going to talk about them. Babies are interesting. I always thought babies were these little people who just cried and ate crap. Cause really, that's what baby food is, I bet. Some jerk(hobo?) decided to mash vomit, oatmeal, and mangoes together to make baby food. I can't even believe I ate something like that. Ew. Anyway, yesterday I saw a baby. My aunt's baby. He was all small and red, like a long tomato. He also had really soft skin. That was the weirdest part. It was almost like you weren't touching anything at all. Also, all babies look the same. Or I can't tell the difference.
