Today would have been a bland day. Nothing tremendously bad happened, and nothing wonderfully good had happened. But, there were itty bitty little good things that happened throughout today. I woke up pretty early, and felt rested. A bunny scampered across the lawn. For lunch, I ate a pretty awesome sandwich. And a beautiful looking woman smiled at me. I got me some kickass Klondike's. All random events, yes. But they made me smile and appreciate my life. But the best part of today was that I found a dollar on the ground. Maybe my post yesterday had something to do with this chain of happiness. (Damn, shoulda written about jet ski's, or dinosaurs, or something)<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
All in all, no matter what kinda day you had, try and enjoy the little things in life. Be glad that you have internet access and can read my ramblings. And I hope you're wearing clothes. It's quite comfy isn't it? Bam, just listed off the internet and clothes. Those are some awesome things to have.<br />
<br />
Your day may be awesome, but it'd be even better if you try and make someone's day better by smiling at them, complimenting them, hugging them, or something. A small gesture can go far. Trust me. That one hot chick did....ahem.<br />
<br />
<br />
I'd give you a highfive. I'd even give you a hug. Why? Cause it's all about making your day better!<br />
Have a good day!Scholar Dollarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10329119245406752963noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3954852732891032928.post-90280982329221230062011-11-14T21:49:00.000-08:002011-11-14T21:49:51.925-08:00Might as well talk about the importance of the USD.Being an citizen of the United States, I use the currency system of the the US Dollar. I know my blog is read by people from all over the world, but a good chunk (about 70%) of my readers hail from the U.S. So for that purpose, I'm going to use the USD. And I am fully aware there are other countries that use the USD. I can't think of any off the top of my head.<br />
<br />
<br />
What can a US dollar get you?<br />
<a href="http://www.wri.org/publication/content/7977">http://www.wri.org/publication/content/7977</a><br />
<br />
In Kenya, that's 8 Cups of Milk. In Ghana, 87 Tablets of Penicillin. In the United States, 1/3 of a delicious, delicious Starbucks Tall Latte. Direct advertisement reference goes here.<br />
<br />
While those stats are quite impressive and makes you think, it really only compares the US with 3rd world countries. But still, it does make you feel a little bit grateful about the importance of green Mr.Washington.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now, let's do some scholarly things with a dollar. A sensible thing to would be to save a dollar a week, and a year later, you can buy like, 40 cheeseburgers, maaaaaan. Of course, you can spend it on incredibly cheap things, such as used books, or go to a dollar store. Maybe even give it to some random kid and just make his day.<br />
Or even buy something healthy!<br />

<br />
<br />
Then again, saving a dollar a week for a year and those cheeseburgers.....it sounds really tempting....<br />
<br />
Well then. I'm out. I managed to clean my room, and stumble upon 5 quarters and a dime. That's $1.35. That is a value meal right there!

I've had a lot of school related stuff to do, and my teachers are stupid, and having a job sucks and...<br />
<br />
<b>No.</b><br />
This time, I cannot blame the possessions that I've been gifted to have. This time, I cannot blame the people I've been blessed to call as "friends." This time, I cannot blame a being. An object. A thing.<br />
<br />
<br />
I can only blame myself for not being on top of it, and not updating my blog. To make a long story short, I was a stupid kid back then, and I still am now. But I'll try my damnedest to update this blog on a more frequent level, then every 500 months. This is a new day! I can't keep kicking myself; I just have to motivate myself. And I'll find a specific topic to talk about!<br />
<br />

Taking a look at my stats, I'm not surprised that the U.S has a majority of my views; it's where I'm from, it's, where most of my audience is from, it's where blogger.com is from, etc. (Also, props to Canada. I like you.)<br />
<br />
But, what is Sweden doing there?<br />
<br />
Are tales of my adventures, cunning, and large genitals perhaps being a tale told to little school children in Sweden?!<br />
<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.highwaygold.co.uk/images/downloads/flags/reduced/sweden.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="225" src="http://www.highwaygold.co.uk/images/downloads/flags/reduced/sweden.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr>

</tbody></table><br />
After 10 minutes of research on Wikipedia, I've done some things that might appeal to Swedes, such as mentioning Amon Amarth, Yngwie Malmsteen, Hammerfall, Arch Enemy. All hailing from Sweden, and all very good metal music. Also, Roxette, and ABBA. They're damn good. And Swedish.<br />
<br />
Wise Master Wikiepdia also told me 89% of Swedish people can speak English. Which is good, since I really don't remember typing in Swedish. I can also only hope that 89% doesn't view Americans negatively due to me....<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Yes, I am slightly gay for Sweden.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This makes me happy, knowing that by throwing in random keywords, such as "Sonata Arctica" or "2011 German Election" I can get some foreign audience members. Ferrari.<br />
<br />
And now I'm going to google translate, say something, and try not to offend any Swedish people:<br />
Det är mycket häftiga.<br />
<br />
<br />
Next week: I'll get the history of Argentina wrong, and try to get some Argentinian bloggers!<br />

<br />
<br />
Also, I have a chem. project relating to caffeine. This is more or less a informal, clumsily made version of that project.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://health.yahoo.net/experts/eatthis/are-energy-drinks-dangerous">http://health.yahoo.net/experts/eatthis/are-energy-drinks-dangerous</a><br />
<br />
The above article asks the question whether or not energy drinks are dangerous.<br />
<br />
Short answer: Yes.<br />
Long answer: Maybe.<br />
<br />
While I do believe that if anything in life tastes good, it's probably bad for you. Moderation is key, and like the article says:<br />
<i><br />
</i><br />
<i>"Well, the truth is that while you can call a product RockStar, a more accurate name for some of their drinks might be <b>Fat Roadie</b>. Because while massive doses of energy drinks are obviously dangerous, adding even a single can a day of some of them to your liquid intake could <b>cause more than 29 pounds of weight gain</b> in a year!"</i><br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.padsandpanels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/The-roadie-Eddie-Riggs.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="225" src="http://www.padsandpanels.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/The-roadie-Eddie-Riggs.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Drink Energy Drinks, and you can be like me!</td></tr>
</tbody></table><br />
<br />
<br />
<i> </i>I don't really drink RockStar. I'm more of a Monster man, myself. But according to this other website:<br />
<a href="http://www.energyfiend.com/death-by-caffeine">http://www.energyfiend.com/death-by-caffeine</a><br />
<br />
<br />
It would take 55 and a half cans of Monster Energy to kill me. It would also take 55 and a half cans of Rockstar to kill me. On the other hand, since 7-Up contains no caffeine, I would not die by caffeine overdose. Sugar overdose, on the other hand....<br />
<br />
<br />
"But Scholar! I drink coffee! Energy Drinks are for fat teenagers who think they're hardcore!!"<br />
<br />
<br />
Well, then. I am most certainly not fat!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Yeah, coffee is good for you. And I mean homebrewed coffee, not your Triple Roasted Triple Sugar Peppermint Shot MegaDeth Caffeinica Starbucks brew. Again, I do emphasize: moderation is key. You don't need to cut back on anything, unless it is on a dangerous level.<br />
<br />
<br />
You guys might have seen this poster flying around, but I'll post it anyway:<br />
<a href="http://www.coolinfographics.com/blog/2010/1/11/the-caffeine-poster-how-much-caffeine-are-you-drinking-new-i.html">http://www.coolinfographics.com/blog/2010/1/11/the-caffeine-poster-how-much-caffeine-are-you-drinking-new-i.html</a><br />
<br />
<br />
It's a poster of drinks in level of their amount of caffeine.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
My essay kicked ass, I promise. This post.....eh.<br />
<br />
<br />
Fun fact: While doing this project, various amounts of caffeine based products were consumed. Among them were:<br />
Monster (I like it; been drinking it for a while)<br />
Starbucks coffee (Meh. I'm from Seattle, guess I have to)<br />
Redbull (A key ingredient in Jagerbombs. *cough*)<br />
Black Coffee (OH GOD GET THIS TASTE OFF OF ME)<br />
Water (Thanks you for that)<br />
<br />
<br />
Needless to say, I got hyper, did some very loud stuff, crashed down, had a headache, and had a glorious nap.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

Well, scholar is trying to get a job. It'll be small time, pushing carts, then maybe retail...then maybe some corporal executive stuff....then the world.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Job apps are less stressful than college apps, and I kinda like them. Why, yes, I do consent to taking a drug test. Why, no, I have not committed any felonies in the past 10 years. And etc...<br />
<br />
<br />
College apps want to know how I "discovered" myself. Or how I "overcame" fear. Those are seriously cauge questions, for sure. I discovered peanut butter, and overcame the fear of just Jelly Sandwiches....<br />
<br />
<br />
Now, some places want you to know how you would handle a pissed off customer. Now that's good stuff. Your boss doesn't want to know about your fears, s/he wants that douchebag screaming about a new modem dead. And you happen to be right there! Now go and earn your 9 dollars an hour, peasant!<br />
<br />
<br />
A little nerve wracking typing my social security number each time, though...<br />
<br />
<br />
I've applied to 5 different companies, and only 2 colleges >_><br />
Yet to hear from any.<br />
<br />
<br />
And you? Any interview tips you might have? College tips? Just general tips?<br />
<br />

Never been there, but its some random place my family wanted to take me with, oddly enough. I'll be there from the 11th, to the 30th.<br />
(Now that I said how long I will be gone, I wonder if any of my followers are gonna jack my house....)<br />
<br />
A Canadian Christmas, then an American New Year! Then back to the harsh realities of school, and entering a new decade...<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Anyways, I leave in an hour and half, so I don't have much to say.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Sorry that this blog post is short....I needed to say something, so I said. Now, I'm just starting on packing things up. You guys go enjoy yourselves. I don't think I can make any posts for a few days. Have a good one, everyone.<br />

<br />
Catchy post title, no?<br />
<br />
<br />
Now, I'm perfectly fine with Japanese whalers hunting down whales, in moderation. I mean, it IS a part of Japanese culture, I assume. It's like hunting down moose, or wolf. If it's done in moderation, and you are using the hunted game for its meat/skin, then yeah, that's fine. But, something is clearly wrong if you shoot a bear, highfive your buddy, and move on to the next bear. That's just a douche-tacular thing to do.<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm also fine with protesters, but this is kinda ridiculous. The boat looks freaking cool, as if Batman just decided to lend the protesters a boat, but still... at what point does an animals life overtake a humans? Yeah, these whales are rare, and should probably be protected, but why do you want to crash your Batman-Godzilla ship into some dinky little whaler ship? You could be out there fighting The Joker, or something....<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I complained enough....what do you guys think?<br />
<br />
<br />
And let's end on a happy note:<br />
Here's a link to a fellow blogger's paper flower tutorial (it looks simple, and awesome):<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Yes, I was imagining countries in a little cafeteria, talking about each other, in my mind.<br />
<br />
<br />
With that said, I was curious as to where my readers are from in this world, so I took a look in the stats...<br />
<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/6193/bloggerstats.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="370" src="http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/6193/bloggerstats.png" width="640" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I do apoligize if your screen gets....fat.</td></tr>
</tbody></table><br />
<br />
Most of my audience comes from the United States. Sweden, you better pick up your pace, or Germany's gonna get more views. Slovenia, you may be a small country, but you are not forgotten. And thanks, India, for being the only country on Asia.<br />
<br />
Also, Sweden, you should probably get your cousins, Finland, and Norway up in here....just sayin'. <br />
<br />
<br />
Firefox is used by more than half of you....I'm so proud of you guys! I mean, I have nothing towards Safari users....but IE users....c'mon....<br />
<br />
<br />
These world stats are quite cool for me, and also kinda useful. If I make a joke concerning Macs, it'll be popular for 92% of you guys. I should also try to celebrate Canada Day, make a Dutch post, etc. A little something for everyone.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Have a good day, ayez une bonne journée, ha en bra dag, guten tag, ....<br />

HP7P1, also known as Harry Potter 7 Part 1.<br />
Man, that's a pretty cool acronym.<br />
<br />
<br />
Short review:<br />
The movie is 2 hours long, and kinda has some boring parts in the middle, but it does try to keep things exciting. You should probably see it. And since it IS in 2 parts, expect a cliffhanger!! Overall, it's good.<br />
<br />
<br />
Slightly longer review:<br />
If this is your very first or even second Harry Potter movie that you're gonna watch, and if you haven't read the books, you're gonna be confused as hell. So, go watch/read everything. The movie does a decent job following the book, it does skip a few parts, but it won't be that noticeable. <br />
<br />
I definitely laughed kinda hard in a few places. Maybe it was cause I was with friends, or maybe because there was a herd of teenage girls dressed as witches in front of me, and I HAD to out-laugh them. Maybe. But, it's got a nice combo of humor and action. A little awkward in some places (was that dancing scene really necessary?)<br />
<br />
The deaths of some of the more notable characters kinda got to me. I think I remember just 3. The non-humans who died....now that freaking got to me. Almost shed a tear near the end. ALMOST.<br />
<br />
It was an alright movie. Not perfect, but it's pretty damn good. Go watch it.<br />
<br />
<br />
And please don't throw your buttery popcorn behind you. He might be a scholar, or something.....and SOMEONE is going have to clean that up...<br />

I don't care if it's Harry Potter 7 part 1 or 2, or anything badass coming soon.<br />
<br />
For the love of god, when part 2 comes out, you'll want to just chill for a second....just think...do you REALLY need to see it? I mean, if you already read the book...oh wait, you already arranged something with your friends?<br />
