Week 6 - 9.28-29


-syncopated, indeed!-



Mon/Tue 100 min


Warm Up 15min


Name a few of the producers (people who make the music for the singers/rappers (e.g. Quincy Jones made the music for Michael Jackson's "Thriller", Dr. Dre made the beats for Snoop Dogg's "Who Am I?") you appreciate. If you don't know which producer you like, think about a song you enjoy for the music, then use your search tool to find the producer of the song.


P.O.T.D. I like Paramore because I can relate to their music and what she is singing. Except for her twilight song. I like that song, but I can not relate to it because I can care less about twilight. Another Band I like is Slipknot because they are freaky and creepy, and I like creepy things if you know me. Then I like Tupac because he the things he raps about is a truth and he was so real. And the beats to his music made it even better. TLC is another group and Destin'y child. I like too many.

Which is More offensive

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2009

Wednesday, Kanye vs Joe

new air yeezys, now in stores


Warm up - 15min

What was a more offensive event: Kanye & Tylor Swift or Obama and Joe Wilson?

Kanye’s incident is getting more attention, why is that? I think that the Obama and Joe Wilson was more offensive because it was a racist comment. But the real reason that the Vma awards are more watch than the news. Duh.

There is a such thing as too Strict Parents

A long time ago, when my big sisters were little, they were not allowed to wear pants, tank tops or make-up of any kind. They weren't even allowed to wear Cherry Chap-Stick. They weren't allowed to wear clear finger nail polish either and my father told them it made them look like jezebels. I though he was strict to me. Nope, him saying that my dress that goes 1 inch above my knees wasn't nothing. It was a church dress with ruffles. I had on stockings and he said he told me not to buy any skimpy clothes. I had bought a sweater to go over it. I looked like a school teacher and he doesn't like my dress. The next day he got over it and I wore my dress to church. My sisters on the other hand, everything they did they would go to hell. They weren't allowed to watch movies (disney or educational), they weren't allowed to go to school dances. They were not allowed to go out unless it was for church or with family or close friends. So, when he left church, he loosened up a bit, little by little. He definitely is not that strict anymore. Oh yeah, their dresses had to be at least an inch below the knees. Now they are very grown with kids so my big sisters can do and wear what they want.

I think **** should be banned

I think you'll understand what I'm talking about once you keep reading why I think **** should be banned. First of all, it is going against God and what he said about waiting until your married. Second of all sex should not be displayed out to the world especially for money. And what about the poor women who regrets doing what they did, it will stick with them for life and since it was already on the web, people already know that they were whores not to sleep with them. **** is inappropriate for children who accidently find these websites and the photos and they don't know what they are looking at. I honestly never asked questions about sex until 6th grade because when I tried to ask my parents they started to tell me things and my mom said something about my something and it scared me out of asking or thinking about sex. I found out everything about sex at school. My parents don't talk to me about sex they just tell me if I have I will be punished, and I will go to hell. So... They are basically saying, I don't need to know anything about sex because I am not going to have it until I'm married. (But we don't know that so why won't they teach me?) Oh yeah, I am not allowed to have condoms because condoms are for people who have sex before marriage. For most of you, you would disobey, but I can't disobey my parents so I won't do it. I think **** should be banned because it temps people into doing thing they should not be doing.

Ilegal immigrants healthcare in America

  1. What was the bias for each clip? One sidedness
  2. Did they present both sides of the story? Each clip only showed one side of the story.
  3. Do you think that the outburst was "racist," as Jimmy Carter argued? Yeah, if he wasn't black the man would have been more polite about it.

I hate it when

  I hate it when people call me skinny 60 times in one day. I am being quite literal. There is nothing I can do about it because it is true and always will be true, but, it is annoying for 60 different people to point out the obvious and tell you something that you already know. It is annoying more than frustrating, but I smile and laugh- sometimes. At times I cry because my feeling would get hurt. Just leave me alone or else I'll show you skinny by throwing up. I might as well be Anorexic! I am sick of tired of the unnessarities of being my size and how people always talk down on me and think they can whoop me or bully me, think twice before you mess with me cause I am loosing patients and try and get at me foul I might fore on you. I don't care if I loose the fight I will still make you wish you never ****ed with me so leave me alone. Don't cap on me because I am depressed, insecure and I always get picked on. And don't ever (unless your kidding) say that you will slap my glasses off my face because my family is poor. I will be blind for like a year or two and I will **** you up if you do that ****. You are basically making me handicap to learn in school and I will take you do court if I don't **** you up like you ****ed me up. Sorry, I'm emotional today.

5 technologies part 2

I think the one of the most important technologies is silver-wear. With out silver wear people would have to eat with they're hands. With out it I would have to wash my hands longer before I eat. And it saves money too, you don't have to buy plastic all the time or carve your own spoons and forks.

Creativity Vs. Literacy

I think was he was saying was absolutely true. I agree with everything he had to say, but I disagree with the people who laughed. It seriously was not funny. It was interesting though. I wasn't bored listening to him because I was thinking the same thing. 

Hobbies and Passion

   Since I only have money to go somewhere every blue moon, I do all kinds of things. Most of the stuff I do is with my cousins who I love so much. I play video games with my cousin, we sing obnoxiously loud. We watch music videos in the living room. 
   My passion is to play the electric keyboard. It is my most adored hobby. I love listening to music and playing the song I hear on the piano. I only learn to play the song if I really like it. I don't want to waste my time and memory on a song I don't like.
