Entry #10 "It's gonna be Legen...wait for it...dary!"

Image
 Hey Y'all! The title of this blog is an important one to me. It comes from a show I just recently finished watching, which is now one of my favorite shows of all time.  This show had lots and lots of fans from beginning to start. It's emotional, but not too emotional, it's weird, but okay enough for most to continue watching, it's funny, but....well, it's cheesy. What can I say? From the friendships, to the bar nights (which is most nights), to the corny jokes, to the telepathically speaking, it had so much going on that you either loved it, or you hated it. This goes, more than anything, for the ending.  How I Met Your Mother ran for nine seasons, capturing the lives of five adults in Manhattan as the years go on. Ted's character is voicing the extremely long story of how he met the mother of his kids, as he is telling them this exciting story. But even though the show was beloved by many, the ending had many angered. It became controversial and fans either co...

Entry #9 Drink for Thought

Image
 Hello Everybody! Let this one sink in for a moment.      What do you think or feel when you see this? Maybe it makes you want to stop your friend from drinking them. Or maybe it makes you laugh. It stopped me for a moment. I love energy drinks, specifically Red Bulls. I would absolutely drink them more than once a day if I could. The thing is, caffeine gets me pretty easily and I would be so shaky, and my heart would be racing so much that I would not be able to function very easily if I drank too much.       According to the CDC, energy drinks can be described as  A beverage that typically contains large amounts of caffeine, added sugars, other additives, and legal stimulants such as guarana, taurine, and L-carnitine. Many people drink energy drinks several times per day. Some do it for the caffeine, while others do it for the flavors. Either way, it can be extremely dangerous to drink them too often. The contents of many of these drinks c...

Entry #8 Art for the Body

Image
 Hello All!           I would like to talk about body art tonight. While many people will wear specific types of clothing in order to show off, there are lots of people who also do so by getting tattoos, getting piercings, or dyeing their hair. I just recently got a new piercing (the first one that I have bought with my own money!) and today, I dyed my hair again. I have dyed my hair countless times, doing natural colors and crazy colors. I have numerous piercings, including septum, nostril, navel, several on my ears, and hopefully soon, another ear one and a mouth one. I also got my first tattoo a couple months back. Why did I get all of these? Three reasons. One, it is fun to get these things done. It gives me a rush and excites me. Two, it lets me express who I am just a bit, especially the dyed hair. Three, I like how they look. Maybe 30 years from now, I won't like some of what I did, but right now, I am in love with all of it, and that is what really...

Entry #7 Fresh Thoughts

Image
 Hello all!      In my English class this semester, we recently watched a film titled Fresh . We watched it in preparation of one of our essays that we would be required to write.       I was asked the questions ; " Have you ever thought about the food you eat and where it comes from? I mean, really, really thought about it? Questioned it? Considered it?". My answer is "not really".       On occasion , or with specific foods, I wanted to know or had a thought fly by about where it might've come from, but I always avoided finding any answers because I knew that if I did not like the answer, there was a good chance that I would no longer be able to enjoy the foods I wanted and liked.             While I was watching the film, nothing really stood out to me or caught my interest, other than seeing things with the animals like the chicks just being tossed to the ground. It did not make me think of...
