Mac vs PC

Mac vs Pc, the battle of the computers. If I was asked which I prefer more, I would, without a doubt, say PC. Mac computers are, well, shit. At home I have a PC, Windows XP to be precise. I also have to use Mac computers every now and then for work, and well, I just don't like them. So what exactly is it that I don't like about them? Hm. First off, I don't like Mac computers' mouses. If you pick them up, off of the mouse pad, they will not work. Now about the computer itself. I absolutely hate, hate, hate, how you don't have the option of right clicking. With a PC computer, you have the option of right clicking which makes everything so much more easier. Also, I'm not a huge fan of how Mac computers don't have a "Start" button. What else.. Oh. With a Mac computer, there are only so many internet windows you are able to open, but with a PC, the choice is unlimited. Honestly speaking, I just don't like the overall layout of Mac computers. Also, I've been using one of them for a while now, and I am still learning, where as with a PC, you learn much more faster. So in the end, PC's defintely win the battle for me.

The Magic of Cell Phones!

As far's I'm concerned.. everyone, and I mean everyone, even ten year old kids, have cell phones now. Cell phones- I consider them to be magic in a little rectangular box. They never cease to amaze me, and I always find myself wondering how the hell they work. One thing I don't understand though is why 10 year old kids need them... Then again, they have a lot of other things at their disposal as well, so why not a cell phone too? I have one as well! But I happen to be a grown, very mature, if I may say so myself, teenager. The one thing I hate about them, however, is the hassle of carrying them. And then every once in a while, you experience this mini heart attack when you pat your pocket, and the devil isn't there, but then two seconds later, you find it and scold yourself for being such an idiot. Yeah, that's what I hate. They're way too high maintenance. And then imagine if you do actually lose it. Someone could make some serious long distance calls, and then you'd be on a run for your money. All negative things aside though, you really do have to marvel at how convenient they are. I mean, you can obviously make calls, play games, but damn, now, you can also surf the net, and all that amazing stuff. This is exactly why I think they are magic.

Lord of the Flies

Lord of the Flies.. I had to read this awful book in grade 10..or 11. I don't remember. But anyways, it was pretty awful. Why, you ask? Well, to begin with, the plot simply was not captivating, not to a grade 10 or 11 student anyways. Honestly speaking, I only remember one character from the book: Piggy. And that is when you know how bad the book is. When you can't even remember more than one character from it. If memory serves me right... the book itself was about a bunch of students whose plane crashes on an island, stranding them all there. From there on, they have to fend for themselves by hunting for food and making shelter, bla bla bla. I keep wondering what the chances of all the adults on the plane dying are... I mean, it's highly unlikely if all the students survive. The book itself may have recieved hundreds or even thousands of awards for the literature or whatever, but to me, the book was rather dirt. All I can say is, if you are a teacher teaching English, then please do substitute the novel with something else. It is better if you chose a different, more interesting novel; I'm sure your students will enjoy it much, much more. Because personally, I did not enjoy the Lord of the Flies at all.

Justin Bieber.

I am positively sure quite a huge chunk of the world's population hates Justin Bieber. But at the same time... quite a lot of people like him as well. I, on the other hand, am undecided. The kid is so fucking young. His songs are about such.. complicated shit. Although, I won't be afraid to admit that I do love his song "Baby". And to be honest, there is not much shame in admitting that. I am pretty sure all of you out there, even the "haters" like that song too, because, well.. it's sort of hard not to. The beat and music is pretty awesome even though the lyrics are dirt, in my opinion anyways. The music video is way too overated. I like most of the bluish background, and the bowling arena, but the dancing is rather lame, lmao. Now there's some of you out there that are completely obsessed with the kid. And I just cannot comprehend why. No offence, but most of his music is not that good. So when I hear people being crazy over his songs.. well I just don't understand why. Oh and, I am also guilty of mistaking his voice for that of a girl's. I don't know, it was this one song.. and yeah, I swear I thought it was a girl. Anyways, maybe my opinion on his songs and his singing will change in the future.

School..

Don't you just love school? In case you didn't realise it, I was being sarcastic. I hate school. Hate it, loathe it, deteste it. It's rather ironic though; I like to learn, but not school. And school sort of is the epitome of learning. Whatever though, I am pretty sure more than half the world's population hates school just as much as I do. There are a few, extremely small exceptions, when I actually do look forward to that shithole. But that's rarely ever. Besides, I would never admit this to any other soul. Lots of adults don't actually understand why us students despise school so much. Well for starters, the teachers play a pretty big role. No matter how nice they are, they are teachers.. And homework. Ah, how can we forget that blessing. As if homework isn't enough, teachers feel the need to give us huge projects and assignments. Obviously, us students don't have lives, do we?

Ownage Pranks

So, it's been quite a long while since I've been watching this awesome fellow's videos: Ownage Pranks! He can be found on Youtube. And when I say he will make you laugh your ass off, I honestly mean it. The guy is a geniussss. He can bring you out of your worst moods ever with his hilarious prank calls. My personal favourite has to be this one though: "McDonalds Excorcism Prank Call" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDMgvsv0vas . It's absolutely hilariousssss. I am not saying his other prank calls aren't funny because that would be a TOTAL lie. His other prank calls are just as funny, but that one is my favourite :).


So, I totally suggest you watch and listen to his videos. There is something I am dissapointed about though, and that's the fact that he doesn't show himself =(. But when you actually think about it, maybe it is better if he doesn't show himself, because it is sooo much more fun that way. It creates a sort of suspense. Sigh.. hopefully he'll post a new video soon, I'm in need of a good laugh.

M&M!

Sigh... My first blog post and it is about the one, the only, Eminem, or as I like it better sometimes.. M&M! But we'll stick to Eminem for those of you numb brains who won't understand the other one, lol. So.. where do I begin? Ah, how about with my blog name, Just Another Girl! Wait, what?! Just Another.. Girl? Girl.. That can't be right? No, it is right, the name is Just Another Girl, not Just Another Boy. Lol, just making clear.. But honestly, there is no shame in admitting that I effing love Eminem's music. It has its downsides though.. for example, I can't really blast the music, or else people will give me a strange look.. a girl listening to a hardcore, swear-ladden Eminem song?! Haha, you get the idea. So I gotta keep it on the low. But it's alright. So what exactly is it that I love about his songs? Hm.. That's a tough one, there's so many things! How about his awesome beats, the best choruses, and most of all, the lyrics. They are all so.. true. Oh and you gotta love the swear words. But in all honesty, it's the way he raps, the speed, and the voice. So just about everything. Eminem is a fucking legend!
