Sami's Survival Guide for Island Endangerment:
1. Using clay found in the dirt, mold a bowl formation.
2. Using flintstone, dried grass and wood, start a fire.
3. Heat the clay bowl and then place in the shade, so that it may harden for later us.
4. Scoop seawater out of the ocean and then boil it in the clay bowl so that the salt will leave and the water will be drinkable.
5. Create a hut out of sticks, leaves, and more clay.
6. Search Island for available fruits and berries. Feed them to someone else and wait a few hours to see if they are poisonous.
7. Use stones to kill small animal life for cooking.
8. If all else fails, resort to cannibalism in the event that there are other, less intelligent, people stranded on the island.

Baby don't hurt me! Don't hurt me, no more!
What is love? That is the question. There is a song by NeverShoutNever that totally encompasses this prompt. (I'll leave the lyrics at the bottom).
Anywho, love is...Complications
Love is...nothing without Pain
Love is...everything I need, but often nothing I want
Love is...hope
Love is...a chemical reaction easily explainable by science, and yet undefinable.
Love is...the unselfish disregard for one's own needs or desires.

What is Love? By NeverShoutNever
In a sitch like this you've gotta think
And I don't think you think about the way he thinks
And I know you live life for yourself
But it all comes down to the way you help

And I know your life is such a hell
You wake up early and you work until
You have your drinks at 5 o'clock
The hours blend and your thoughts all
Haunt

Your hopes, your dreams, your everything
Well, momma I hope, I dream, that you won't
Leave

And I have a question!

What is love?
What is love?
Oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
Is it giving up?
'Cause that's not how you raised me,
Yeah.

In a sitch like this you gotta think
And I don't think you think about the way
She thinks
And I know you work hard everyday
But it all comes down to the way you're
Paid

And I know you're oh so sorry dad
I truly believe that you're a better man
Than to share one kiss then give away
All the love you come home everyday

To your hopes, your dreams, your everything
Well daddy, I hope, I dream that she won't
Leave

And I have a question!

What is love?
What is love?
Oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
Is it giving up?
'Cause that's not how you raised me.
And what is love?
What is love?
Oh, oh oh oh-oh-oh
See, I don't know anymore;

I used to look up to that love.

I want the world record for longest lame dance off ever. The dance moves can only be those that would fall into the "lame" category (see Landgrab). I think this would be possibly one of the funnest and most entertaining records to attempt to get. It would be funny and people wouldn't get bored with it because it would not feel so repetitive.

Somebody please do this! OR I WILL!!!

Well, lets get this straight first, I am no sidekick. However, due to this journal prompt I will concede.
I would most probably be Wonder Woman's sidekick. Not only would we have stylishly coordinated patriotic outfits, but we'd kick butt ALL OVER the world. It would be super bueno and we'd be representing the US. I could also use my superpowers to kick in Spencer Long's face. I'm sorry, but SEXISM WILL NOT FLY WITH ME. My "place" in the world, as a woman, is where ever I want it to be. I will NOT make you a sandwich, but if I'm told that again, I may dig you a grave.

Oh heads will roll. Wonder Woman and I against the world of sexism.

So today I am so ready for sleep, it is unreal. Here's a good look at how my week has been.

Sunday: Film an entire 6 minute Spanish video about Pokemon with a crappy digital camera.
Monday: Work on AP World History project until midnight.
Tuesday: Edit Spanish video until 2:30am with Windows Moviemaker. Become frustrated and exhausted with having Moviemaker freeze 8 times, and the computer overheat and die, while publishing the final video.
Wednesday: Present Spanish video. Work on AP World History Project and Geometry optional retest assignment until 1am.
Thursday: Turn in AP World History project and Geometry assignment. Work on Debate Personal Narrative Speech until 2:30am. Proceed to then work on English project.
TODAY: Do speech in front of debate class and then try to get English Project done during debate class because it's due 3B.

My life has just been so exhausting this week. The one plus: I got my iPod back. I now love freshmen.

I'm afraid life wouldn't exist without Apple. Honestly, we'd all be quite, very well, dead. It's funny that this is the topic of the blog today because I recently lost my iPod. I'm having a very difficult time surviving, and estimate that I'll be dead in about two weeks. I can't run without my iPod. I just can't. I don't know if there is just some sort of psychological thing with hearing myself breathing hard or what, but I cannot get my legs moving without music to move to. I've felt so crippled lately without my iPod. I can't listen to it when teachers are being ridiculously boring (for the record, learning about broadcast is never boring).

Surviving without Apple has become an imposibility for the human race, as proven by Sami Jay.

"The wealthy man is the man who is much, not the one who has much."

I believe this quote is basically saying: You're better if you make something awesome of yourself than if you just simply have a bunch of awesome things.
I totally agree, its easy enough to buy something awesome or to own something awesome, but it's much more difficult and much more impressive if you actually are awesome. You have to work hard at it. You show real talent and desire that way.

Its worth so much more to be great than to have what is great.

The most effective ad I have recently seen is a Dalworth Clean ad. They have this little jingle that goes with their ad and so now I totally know the entire phone number because they told it to me in a singsong way. I love it.

Call 267-8433
Cause the next best thing to do~ Is Dalworth Clean!

If I could go to any concert it would Panic! At The Disco. Panic! is the best freaking band in freaking existence! I love them...with a fiery passion. I saw them for the first time in 2008 with my amazing sister and best friend, Lauren Seei, and it was so magical, so magical that nobody can even comprehend. I crowdsurfed and KNOW that Brendon Urie or Jon Walker saw me. Goodness I love them. I love Ryan Ross so much. So, so, so much. I would probably just take Lauren and my sister again, because they can truly appreciate the INTENSE love for Panic! that I have. I don't know if I am properly getting this across, just how much I love this band, but I hope it is clear. I LOVE THEM.

Innocence, sunk the glow and drowned in covers

I love April Fools Day! The pranks are hilarious and everyone becomes just so lighthearted! It's entertaining, however it's difficult whenever something serious does ACTUALLY happen. You don't know whether to laugh or be concerned. For the most part though, this is one of the most fun holidays throughout the year.

I have yet to pull a prank though. I think my victim shall be my mama when I get home;)
