Planet g

A NEW PLANET!? This day just keeps getting better and better.

Check out the Article

 This is really exciting. This planet is in another solar system not too far but not too close to it's sun. It could possibly contain water which = LIFE! I really hope there is life there. I've always hoped we'd find Extraterrestrial life in my lifetime. Maybe one day we might even be living on this new planet. Hopefully humankind won't destroy this one like we are our own.

Here's some interesting facts from the article if you're too lazy to actually read it:

1. Planet g is about 3 times the mass of Earth. 
2. It is much closer to its star. 14 million miles versus Earth's 93 million
3. It's so close to its version of the sun that it orbits every 37 days
4. It doesn't rotate much, so one side is almost always bright, the other dark. 
5. Temperatures can be as hot as 160 degrees or as frigid as 25 below zero, but in between
6. The planet circles a star called Gliese 581. It's about 120 trillion miles away, so it would take several generations for a spaceship to get there. {Sad news there :(  }
7. Scientists believe that there are other planets like this one and Earth out there

I'm super excited to see what else we discover about this planet.

I LOVE SPACE!! ^_^

That's it for now. Adios

What WHAT!?

The craziest thing happened at school this morning. I was driving to school and noticed that one perking lot was halfway blocked off. Probably because of a stupid football game or some shit like that. So I thought, "Fuck... it's going to take me forever to find a parking spot!"
But when I got to the other lot there where open spots EVERYWHERE!!!! The hardest part was deciding which spot to take. There were so many choices! I have never witnessed such a bizarre event! It was around 10:45 a.m. so it wasn't because I got there before everyone else. I don't understand how it happened but I was pretty excited. 
And to top it off I feel pretty good about my Sociology test this morning. Today has started off pretty well so far, a contradiction to yesterday's shittyness. I'm just hoping it stays this way.

Over and out

I'm not intimidated by 50 Cent anymore

So, when you think of 50 Cent you usually think of a big, bad ass black rapper who got shot like 20 times and still lived to kick ass and take names, right? Well not anymore!!!!! Apparently, he's going to play a crack head in some movie coming out next year, and he's changed his image to fit the part. Check out the pictures on his website

He Nasty lookin! I feel like I could even kick his ass now. And that's saying something.

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch - Good Morning America

Oh my God. This video is absolutely sickening. I can't believe that our trash problem is this bad. The poor animals out in the ocean are dying because of human wastefulness. Everyone should strongly consider looking into recycling their plastics instead of throwing them away. After watching this video, I definitely am. I would hate to think that this is my trash out there.

Good Song

I found this song on one of my old CDs today. It's a song I heard in high school and thought was really funny. Just thought I'd post it for everyone to see. Enjoy

If I ever become a professor, I want some answers like these =P

Here's some pictures I found on Facebook of crazy answers and essays that people actually turned in to teachers! Some of them are kind of long, but they're worth the read, Trust me!

I never in a million years would have thought that it was possible to artfully describe 2girls1cup... but this guy did it.... Wow, Kudos dude. Nonetheless, dude's gotta be SUPER brave to actually turn this in.

I love how the teacher participated in this one. But the poor guy still got no credit for the answer :(

 Noob! Duh! Don't you play MMORPGs, Mrs. Teacher?

 Darn....

 A For effort I say...

Ya can't help but laugh at this one... even tho the guy probably is crazy.... and probably in a LOAD of trouble...

 HA! Could this guy even finish the test after drawing this insanely detailed King Leonidas? Good Job, though!

 This guy got it right!! Now if only I could draw this good, I could pass everything!!

 You can't say that's a wrong answer... He did find X.

Now who says  being a teacher would be boring!?!? With answers like these I would stay pretty entertained!  That's it for today folks! Stay Tuned!
