Now I'm going around my school turning off/on all of the TVs and projectors.

It is awesome.

a) too protective

 governments don't lie all the time

the de facto for government should be that they are always lying.

And I bet most "terrorists" don't have expensive Verizon plans, they have cheap burner phones that aren't nearly as closely watched.

The reason why you have to fiddle with it to get it to work is because of poor soldering, but it sounds like your whole jack is crappy, if you wanted to you could solder on a new jack which would cost like $2 and save your headphones if you're really into them.

I'm getting a set of Bongos I think which would be great for jamming with friends.

A 400 dollar laptop is still pretty bad. Any decent laptop is $1,000+.

You can get some decent laptops in the $800+ range. But it depends on what you're doing.

Whole fat Egg Nog is like a one way ticket to extreme obesity.

Fortunately I'm 15 though so I can eat whatever I want and have no repercussions.

No matter how awful those songs were, the guy was a bit of a douchebag.

It would be better to wait until you can afford a better computer. It might be almost passable today, but fast forward a year it will be a paperweight.

I only swim seasonally for my development, but I place in most of my events despite not practicing and my high school is bugging the stuff out of me to start swimming. The problem is that I can't make two meets a week.


Though I have this awesome leopard print swim cap that I wear because it is badass.

I don't understand why terrible-for-you foods are material for this, I mean they taste ok, but personally I would rather eat something that was really interesting and somewhat good for you.



Kale Chips anybody?

Your school is either insane or really competitive for no reason xD

6:50 is not an incredibly fast mile. It is probably average for a semi-athletic hs student.

For the first time ever I ran 7 consecutive miles yesterday. Came out at just barely under an hour. Though I should probably spend more time on intervals since I play hockey.

this morning i brushed my teeth and a bunch of hot thick blood came out when i spat the toothpaste out

Your gums or something are probably inflamed. It is good that you brushed your teeth, it will reduce inflamation.
