Egypt... You Guys Should Really Chill Out

For Thursday, February 17

The blog topic for the day:  Egypt.

Unfortunately, I'm not totally sure about what is going on over there on that side of the world, though my parents watch the news everyday for at least an hour and a half.  Sometimes I would watch/listen to it with them while I'm eating at the dinner table, so I'm kind of a bit clueless with the news around the world. 

One thing I've heard about Egypt is that there is some kind of revolution for a new presitdent, I guess.  Well, if we had a guy or gal in office for 30 years, I would want a change too.  So I don't blame them.  But there was a statement about American citizens.  A guy from Egypt was actually broadcasted on the news telling the whole world that he hates all Americans.  Ha!  I thought it was funny only because of the simple fact that he is making a biased comment probably because of some Americans.  Oh well, I guess people can have their own opinions.  I love my Americans (:

Another thing that I had heard on NBC4 was about a woman who was sexually assaulted, abused and beaten by a.  Seriously, if that's their way of saying they hate Americans, then those who would follow the same footsteps as their 'brother' did, then in my opinion, they can all jump off cliffs.  Sorry, but that's just how I feel about that situation.

Anyways, for the civilized Egyptians, the ones that wouldn't sexually assault or abuse people, I hope they keep going forward with the revolution to change the way things work.  Out of respect, I wish them luck.  It's great to know that Egypts surrounding neighbors might move forward to a revolt, but that gives an open opportunity for terrorism to invade.  That's not going to be good at all.  If I could give them advice and if they'd take my advice, I would tell them to stop running around and acting crazy and turn their disaster into a peaceful revolt.  Who knows?  Maybe if they were to campaign peacefully, there might actually be a change.  But I doubt they would take my advice.  After all, I am American. -___-

Main Priority.

It's great to finally say that I know how I'm going to spend my last couple years of high school.  I know I've mentioned before on my blog that I wanted to continue on to college but I wasn't fully ready because I couldn't decide on what exactly it is that I want to go for.  Well, several days later, I've made a final decision:  X-Ray Technician. 

The reasons behind why I chose to become an x-ray technician is mainly because of money.  The adverage salary of a x-ray tech reaches $59,000 and the starting salary is $33,000 or less but can range up to $90,000 or above.  That's what I at least want to become, but in the mean time, I will use school to get me through and if that doesn't work out- there is a back up plan.  The back up plan still remains at a pediatric nurse, but if something so happens to go wrong, dental assisting and becoming a dental hygienist will still be a great accomplishment to me and to my family.

This past Tuesday, I took a field trip to the SWCA (South-Western Career Academy) to actually learn more about the school and to make a final, yet, good decision if I want to attend and what I want to attend for.  I was stuck in between Health Tech and Dental Assisting because of the fact that what I plan on doing is an option in both fields and as a Sophomore, you still had questions that needed to be answered.  Leaving that day, I still wasn't sure.  So I took my mom to Open House tonight to help decide.  When it all came down to it, I picked Mrs. Brown for dental.

My plan now is to complete my application to the best of my ability to get in.  Further more, when and if I get accepted into Dental Assisting, I plan to walk out my Senior year with a job as a dental assistent in a dental office while going to college further more to become an x-ray tech or a pediatric nurse.  That way I will have a great job while I'm in school.

Thank goodness for free college credits (;

For Friday, February 4

Second period.  ERC lab.  Time to write a blog for Mr. Mann and I have absolutely nothing to write about.  Therefore I've decided to write about my weekly achedule- after school.

School... Gross.  Same thing, different day; you go, you learn, you work, you leave.  Then homework is the priority once I get home.  Once that is done, I'm free to lay around and do NOTHING.  Weekdays suck! 

If you actually knew me, you would know that if I don't have softball, I sleep and take naps with my boyfriend when I get home and eventually wake up just to play Nazi Zombies on Call of Duty with him.  That's probably like the worst addiction you can ever have because once you start to play, you never  want to quit.  It's horrible, lol.

By the time 10:00 p.m. comes around, it's television time! (:

Monday:  Skins
Tuesday:  Teen Mom 2 and My Life As Liz
Wednesday:  I Use To Be Fat
Thursday:  JERSEY SHORE! :D
Friday:  Reruns (If I'm not busy doing anything else)

Great schedule, huh?

Jersey Shore is my faavooritee; if you can't tell.  I envy that show so much, though.  It really makes me want to go on vacation out of Ohio and lay out on a beautiful beach to tan!  But it's very entertaining and I was told I have a similar personality to Sam.  Yeah, I don't know whether that's a good or bad thing for sure, but I'm beginning to believe it's a good thing since Sammie is one of the strongest souls in the Jersey Shore house. 

Skins and I Use To Be Fat are new to MTV, but Skins is a remake of an older reality show.  It did creep me out on the first epidsode, but it's not a bad show.  It's pretty much watching teens live their, what they like to call, 'normal' life.  I Use To Be Fat motivates me to be healthy!  Personally, I'm glad that show is being aired.  The only thing I dislike about it is the fact that sometime it makes me feel like an ugly cow... and I'm not even fat! 

Teen Mom 2 is self explanitory.  I like to watch the show, yes, but I think now-a-days it's promoting teen pregnancy because it seems like everyone and their mom is getting prego!  Dumb decisions.  Though I will give kudos to Macie on the first season and Leah this season.  They actually show that though it's difficult, teens can raise kids on their own.  My Life As Liz is another favorite of mine and the second season hasn't aired yet.  I'm so ready for Tuesday, February 8!
