Do you think this is okay?

I've been talking on Facebook with my friends boyfriend lately. We've hung out a few times and he's cool. We have fun when we talk and I like talking to him as a friend. I'm afraid that she'll get jealous, even though I don't feel that way about him. Should I tell her we're talking (its not flirting at all, we just kid around and stuff) so she doesn' get mad? I really don't think tis that big of a deal, but I don't want her thinking that. He talks to her other friend and I think she's okay with it, but I'm not sure how she'd feel since the other girl has been friends with him for a while.

Stem Cell Research

Wanna know what's annoying? The fact that in my religion class my teacher told me "according to the Bible, embryos are people" so therefore stem cell research was wrong. I disagreed because they don't use embryos from a pregnant woman, but that are frozen, never to be used and therefore it is not a bad thing. They told me it would be the same as walking into a hospital and taking the organs out of someone dying, for they would die anyway. It's not the same and I cannot believe they would think of the comparison. Also, I am entitled to my own opinion. They told me I was completely wrong. I know they say its a person as soon as it starts and what not, but there is so much we can get from stem cell research that is beneficial. I dunno, this just made me veryy mad.

i was listening to the party scene and hit the lights and all their old old stuff. and i miss it! what happened to them? yeah i'm still a fan and i don't mind nothing personal, but its so weak compared to their old stuff you know? i wish they would go back to writing their own stuff, just them and making it great. like this: compared to this: i'm kinda venting a little bit, but i just wish they didn't sell out (which i think they did a little). i still love them and i just hope their next album will be better...

a review of twilight chpt by chpt

chapter by chapter, this reviewer painfully suffers through sm's writing. here's an example (its fun and completely true). honestly, i did think twilight was a reallyyy good book until i actually read it. then...not so much.kinda like the jonas brothers seem good till you actually listen to them Mark Reads 'Twilight': Preface/Chapter 1 "I've borrowed Bree's untouched copy of Twilight for this first part. It seems to me that it's a bad sign that she couldn't finish it. Bree finishes books regularly and this book is still unread. I wanted to crack open the book and get to reading, but if the few previews I'd read of the novels were accurate and represented Meyer's style, I'd be undertaking a long, arduous, and possibly painful task. So the book sat on my desk at home for 20 minutes, just as unread as it was before. (Note that I also ate a quarter pint of ice cream while staring at the cover.) All right. Here goes nothing. PREFACE The preface of Twilight reminds me of the trashy horror books I used to read when I ran out of Stephen King and H.P. Lovecraft to read back in junior high. Short, concise, and ambiguous. It's in first-person and I'll assume that it's from the point of view of the main protagonist, Bella Swan. She's staring at "the hunter" (probably a vampire?) "without breathing." Even if the text fills half the page, it seems like a long time to go without oxygen. There's nothing spectacular here except Meyer's use of the word "sauntered." I consider that word to be a complete joke (because who actually saunters ever?), so we're off to a good start. CHAPTER 1: FIRST SIGHT It's in this chapter that I first meet Bella Swan. Bella is filled with self-hate: she hates where she's going, she hates her skin tone, she hates her clumsiness (which we'll get to), and she hates that she's so different. For someone who is so consumed by hatred, she does not a single thing to alleviate any of these things. In fact, she seems to act in direct contradiction of what might cause her to experience joy. Perhaps this is just who her character is, but I couldn't help but feel that each of her characterizations were forced by Meyer in order for her to fit into the story she wanted to create. I've always felt a good novel had a story that made the characters, not the other way around. I don't feel like Meyer is telling a story; I feel like she's creating characters to say what she wants. Bella moves to Forks, Washington. In a description that sounds exactly like it was ripped from a Wikipedia entry (Meyer's inspiration for choosing this city), Bella says, "In the Olympic Peninsula of northwest Washington State, a small town named Forks exists under a near-constant cover of clouds. It rains on this inconsequential town more than any other place in the United States of America." If Meyer was going for hyperbole, this could have been phrased differently; however, it feels factual and, at the same time, completely dishonest. Forks is terrible and Bella, who's moving in with her father, makes no qualms about complaining about absolutely everything. She whines about the car her father, Charlie, buys her. She whines about having to share a bathroom. She whines about starting a new school. She whines about crying. It's like those stupid Xzibit memes: I'm whining inside my whine so I can cry while I cry. Shut the fuck up, Bella Swan. And her day at school is irritating. Everyone MAGICALLY LOVES HER. Despite worrying about being an outcast, every person (except Edward Cullen, who we'll get to) accepts her. Right off the bat. It's a work of complete fiction and delusion, yet Bella is an outright asshole to virtually everyone who is nice to her. That's a great way to be accepted, you moron. And then there's Edward Cullen. In perhaps the most telling form of foreshadowing I've ever seen, Edward, who might be described as the most beautiful creature Bella has ever seen, is a complete and total douchebag to Bella, going so far as to refuse to look her in the eye and request to move classes so he never has to see her again. Now, I know this is going to be explained soon, but this seems to be a summary of the relationship between Edward and Bella in the first chapter of the novel: no matter how horrible Edward is, Bella is going to be unreasonable and fall madly in love with him. Before I move on to chapter 2, I just want to say that I've avoided the obvious complaint this entire time, but I've decided to briefly address it: Stephanie Meyer is a terrible writer. Her grammar is atrocious and her copy editor should be taken out to the Editing Pasture and removed from his/her position. There is a glaring error of repetition (the "I was wearing..." sentence) in the first paragraph of the entire book. Furthermore, she does something that I consider to be a cardinal sin in the world of creative writing: she tells you, but she does not show you. Long ago, a teacher of mine (and subsequent professors) taught me why certain writers were so damn good at their craft. They'd show you entirely imagined worlds. They'd show you beautifully evocative character developments. They'd show you everything inside their heads. But they'd never tell you. Stephanie Meyer almost always tells. This happens. Then this happens. Then this. This person, who looks like this, does this. In this case, plot is more important than imagery. And it's driving me crazy. (Though I will admit there is a brief and surprising break from this. Bella's description of her father's kitchen/apartment is kind of stunning. Maybe she can write a little bit?) 24 more chapters and an epilogue to go. Sigh." read more on http://markreadstwilight.buzznet.com/user/journal/4400301/

Want to know what's just plain dumb? The fact that I go to my brother's soccer game and have to listen to the other team's parents say rude things about my brother's team. They're a group of 12 year olds and their parents act younger than they do. It's the same at my softball games. My mom went to the other side of the base where the other team's parents were and they were saying nasty things about my team and my coaches. We're 14-15 and we do act a little bitchy toward the other team, I do admit that, but their parents who are adults are saying nastier stuff about my coach than we are about their kids. I hate going out and seeing people I've played because they don't like me but neither do their parents. Its a little much to have a parent glare at you for throwing out their daughter or hitting off of them, but I get it frequently. Once a parent called my coach a bunch of stuff and it was awful. I felt soooo bad for our coach because he's like a dad to me. At one of our games, there was banging on the fence when a girl on the other team got a hit. We thought it was the girls, so we did it too, showing them how annoying it was. It was their parents. Wow. Anyone have this happen to them?
