I think students that fight at school, knowing the consequences, are dumb. They are just asking to get in trouble. And in my opinion, if a student is to injure a teacher, accidentally or not, they should be charged for it. If you're going to be immature and fight about something stupid, then it would be wise to atleast wait until you're not on the school campus.

I think the swine flu is a little bit scary, but also a little overrated as well. I don't think it will be too much of an issue here in Georgia. And if it does become a problem, then I'm not all too worried because we have a lot better medical supplies than Mexico.

At that time I was crazy about Dierks Bentley. So I told my mom and within an hour we were out the door and driving to Smiley Hollow, Tennessee... it was so fun and exciting. I got to see Dierks Bentley perform, front row! I took pictures that day, but never got the film developed and now the camera is lost :/

Miss California's answer cost her -- $200,000 crown, scholarship $$, apartment in NYC (Trump Tower) for a year, annual salary, fame, and many more opportunities. She became 1st Runner up with Miss North Carolina taking the Miss USA title. Regardless of your views on homosexual marriage, would you have stated your belief even if you knew it would cost you one of the judge's vote?

i would still tell the truth about what i think.. i don't think her place in the pageant should have been determined on her answer to that question. everyone has a right to they're own beliefs and everyone should respect other's opinions whether or not they're the same as their own.

Friday, I left work early and went to Valdosta with some friends to go to a youth gathering at their church. We played a game called Apples to Apples, I'd never heard of it, but it was so much fun. I didn't get home home until 2 the next morning, HAH! Then on Saturday I went to work from 10am-1 and then after that I went back over to my friend's house and we decided to take a road trip to Valdosta, AGAIN. We went to the mall and ate Chik-fil-a and met up with his sister when she got off of work then we spent some time with her. I had a lot of fun. Then yesterday I just went to church and watched peter pan and took the best nap ever. I really enjoyed myself this weekend and I'm glad because that rarely happens.

This past weekend was nice. Friday, we were out of school and I woke spent the day with Ethan. We had a good time, but then I had to work at 3:30. After work I drove to visit my mom in Eastman. On Saturday my mom, little sister, cousin, aunt, and I exchanged some Valentine's gifts and then we went to the flea market to spend some time together. I bought two new skirts for really cheap and I'm excited about them. Sunday, my mom, my sister and I got up and went grocery shopping and then went home and ate lunch. Around 4:30 I headed back here to Douglas and made it in time for church. Monday I slept in late, and then got up and met Ethan and his mom at Pizza Hut for lunch. Ethan and I hung out for a bit longer after that and then I had to go in to work. Over all my weekend was pretty great. And my dad bought me a Snuggie!!! :D

Personally (along with a lot of other teachers, admin, and students) I am sick of the smoking in the bathroom. How can any of you stand to even go in the restrooms? There is no way to "air" them out either. CHS is a smoke-free campus and that will never change due to state and federal regulations. Knowing this, what solution do you have for stopping the smoking in the restrooms?

I really don't know what else could be done to prevent people smoking in the bathrooms. Other than locking the doors, but I'd rather have cigarette-smelly bathrooms than have the doors locked. They could have a teacher monitor the bathrooms more closely to make sure no one is smoking in the restrooms.......... but other than that I really don't know. I hate the smell, though, and I think its dumb that those kids can't just wait until they're out of school. Or atleast sneak outside to get their smoke break in.... since they're already breaking the rules.

I used to watch every episode of American Idol. But, this year, I've been a little slack so far. I'll probably try to watch more of it once the actual competition begins. I love watching the auditions, though because they are sooo funny. Then, once they've chosen the top twenty it gets really intense for me.

Are you a morning person or not? What time do you get up? Are you on time to school?

No, I am definately not a morning person. I'm always ill whenever I wake up in the mornings, its the worst feeling ever to me. I set my alarm for 6:30 and don't actually get up until about 6:50, then I when I get out of the shower, I get myself dressed and wrap my hair up in the towel and then sleep AGAIN until 7:30. After that I dry my hair and do whatever else I need to do and I'm usually always on time to school. I hate mornings, unless I've slept extremely well or unless I'm excited about something I'm doing that day.... which is very rare.

A study from the University of Minnesota indicated that teens who skip breakfast are more likely to become obese than those who routinely eat breakfast. Over the five-year span of the study, those who skipped breakfast were on average five pounds heavier than their breakfast-eating peers.

I don't usually eat breakfast. Every once in a while I'll wake up early enough for it, but other wise I usually just go without. And I highly doubt that I will ever become obese. I weigh a steady 115lbs, I can't gain weight even if I wanted to try. But believe me, if I could eat breakfast every morning, I would. I hate being at school and waiting for lunch. Breakfast would that situation out a little bit...... yeah.

Never lend your car to anyone to whom you have given birth. ~Erma Bombeck
What does this quote mean? Do you think it applies to your parents? Does it apply to any of your friends' parents?

This means that you shouldn't trust your children to drive your car, because something bad could very possibly come of it. It doesn't apply to my parents because I never drive their cars, and when I did I was always really cautios. On the other hand, I have a few friends whose parents this could apply to. One of my friends ran into a pole with her step-dad's car and scuffed it up pretty bad. The car is black and the marks were white, so we colored it in with a black sharpie, and he never noticed.

"Sexting"

I think its rediculous that these little girls are putting themselves in such situations. They should have more respect for themselves than to send out nude pictures of themselves to guys that more than likely aren't worth anything to them. I don't know anyone, personally, who is involved with that type of activity, but I have heard a few stories about Coffee High girls in situations like that. I think its stupid and irresponsible to do stuff like that. I don't think its worth pressing charges on the students in Pennsylvania, though. Its not like they were abused and forced into having nude pictures taken of themselves. They chose to put themselves out there and make some dumb, perveted guy happy. They should be ashamed, but I don't see any purpose in pressing charges on them.

Think about your eyes -- now! Did you know that smoking constricts blood vessels that supply oxygen to the eyes? What other habits or activities do you & others actively participate in that cause damage to your eyes?

I usually sit too close to the computer screen when I'm at home... and my eyes start to burn a lot, so I don't think thats very healthy. And although I've heard it isn't really harmful to eyes, I read in dim light a lot. And sometimes I forget to take out my contacts at night.

What's your favorite TV show? What's so great about it?

I don't watch much tv. But when I do I like to watch shows on TLC. Like Little People Big World and John & Kate Plus 8. I like those shows because you get to see a glimpse of someone else's life and how they live with the situations they are given (dwarfism, sextuplets, etc). I find it really interesting. I also like to watch America's Funniest Home Videos... because its really funny. And anything on Animal Planet. I love animals.
