My thoughts on Blogging!!!

My personal thoughts on blogging are if you want to do it if you want to, but don't try to get me involved.  I personally think that people shouldn't get paid to blog because there are way more important things people should get paid more for.  Also I think blogs help, but I don't want to run one because I have things that I would much rather do.  I only do it for this class because I have to.  I have read other blogs but for information on a certain subject.

Memorial Day

We celebrate Memorial Day to thank and remember the men and women who served in the United States Armed Forces.  First I went to subway then I went to a Parade to celebrate it.  After the parade it was really crappy weather outside so I hung out with some fiends.  I really don't take memorial Day very seriously, it is just another day I get off school if you ask me.

 

National Month For???

There are now National Months for random things now and I don't really like them.  For example it is National Month for Smiles.  I think that is a very dumb idea.  People just thought of these things just to annoy other people or to try to get there kids to do something.  I honestly don't think we need to do anymore of these things.  The only useful one would be a sleep month.

 

My truck.

Recently I have acquired my first car, kind of.  It isn't really a car, it is a truck.  It is my very first vehicle and I am proud of it.  It is a 1984 Jeep J10.  I know people Jeep doesn't make trucks, anymore.  Before Chrysler bought Jeep from AMC they did make pickup trucks.  Mine is the half sized truck, the full sized is the J20.  I extremely love the truck, it has a regular cab, automatic transmission, vinyl interior, 7foot bed, and 71,000 miles.  It is an absolutely great truck and can't wait to drive it to school.

Cinco De Mayo

 

Cinco De Mayo is the celebration held on May 5.  It translate to fifth of May.  It is celebrated in the United States and in regions of Mexico.  It is the Celebration of the Mexican's army over the France at the Battle of Puebla.  So in reality we shouldn't be celebrating it nearly as much as we do and should because it wasn't our victory, it was the Mexican's and we celebrate it more than them.  I think if Mexico wants to make it a National holiday they should, but we shouldn't.

 

Prom!!!

I haven't gone to prom yet but from what I heard it sounds really fun.  I don't think that that should be just an after prom.  I don't think that prom is overrated at all.  It is usually that last big event for the school year at most schools so it should be an all out event.  I plan on going to prom next year so then I will truely know.

 

Earth Day

Today is Earth day I honestly don't care about it at all.  We only celebrate it because of a massive oil spill that happend on of the coast of San Fransico.  A couple of facts I just found out about Earth Day are 180 countries take part in it, Gayload Nelson was the person who tought of it, and that the first official Earth day was in 1970.
