Why.

I honestly have to ask -- WHY did Elementary school even bother teaching everyone cursive? They told us all, "You need to learn it because you will use it later in life." When? When exactly is that? I use print. I write each letter as an individual, and so do most people I know. Why do we do this? Well, one, its readable. Every time I get a letter in the mail from my either of my grandma's, its in cursive. The letter will take me more or less 10 minutes to decipher. They're never even that long. I hate reading cursive. I have to squint, re read things over and over again, try and figure out is that a T or and L? Is it and E or and R? Come on. I just despise it. If its written nice, it can be beautiful! But the majority of the time, its sloppy, fast, and smudgy. I cannot read it. Elementary school lied to us all. Think about that. It hurts doesn't it. I spent far too much time perfecting my uppercase G's than I needed to. FAR TOO MUCH TIME. 


Curses.

RIP OFF!

So, about a week ago, danii and I went to www.thinkgeek.com to see if there was any good spy/prank gear we could order. I was lucky enough to have 20 bucks on hand. Well, I found a little remote that promised I could rule the universe... well, actually just the universes TV's. It is a tiny universal remote that will allow me to change the volume, channel, mute it, turn off the TV, and some other button.

I received my package today and got really excited. I take it out of its packaging, put in the battery, turned on the TV, and followed the instructions. Nothing. I try again. Nothing. I try again, and again, and again, and etc. NOTHING. So by now I am pretty angry. This little fifteen dollar piece of crap has ruined my evening. I was planning to turn off the TV during our schools BORING channel 1. But NO, there we go, not happening. So here is what I advise: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY AT THINK GEEK.COM. IT IS THE BIGGEST WASTE EVER!
