I've been thinking... I'm sure some of us know the song, "I Can Only Imagine". I just realized that is probably one of my favorite songs to sing when I'm happy or when I want to feel happier. Jus think about it. Really, just sit and think about it. Will you sing praises to him? Will you stand quiet? Either way, you'll be that way forever because he's so grand. You'll either be so happy you won't have words for it for eternity or you'll want to sing for him forever. Will you dance for jo...
Hi, I'm Brandon. I'm 17 years old and I am one person. I act on my own and I think on my own. I even dress myself (most days). I don't think I can sit here anymore if the ac kids continue to blog (no, just behave) the way they have been. I know it's unfair to put all of the Amanda Clearcreek students together in a ball like that, but that's what happens when you stick with a group of people. You become that group of people. Some of them aren't being so... irritating, but others are gettin...
I don't know why I thought of putting this up but I guess I just felt like writting something... anything. This is probably going to be confusing too, because I'm a little tired and I feel almost mooshy. I was sitting in the movie theater and a thought popped into my head... what will I be doing in a year? I didn't think of much but things to do with Sarah, so hopefully I don't have to erase all of my plans later on. I don't think it will be a problem so I don't mind saying this all that m...
Didn't GemCityJoe say that he was going to make the JoeUser Blog Awards an annual event last year? What happened to that? I want to see how things have changed since then that way. It's a fun thing to be a part of and I'm really disappointed that we haven't had it yet. Would anyone else be able to host the awards if GCJ can't get the job done? I don't have the computer knowledge to pull something like this off, but I'd really be very gratefull if someone would bring the awards back for th...
So, I was looking through the 2005 edition of the Guinness book of world records and on pages 173, 176, and 179 I found (in my opinion) the greatest trilogy ever making rather impressive records. Let's start with the most well known. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King jumped into the record books with accepting 11 American Academy Awards. The awards were for Best Picture, Best Director, Art Direction, Costume Design, Visual Effects, Sound, Editing, Makeup, Screenplay Based on M...
So, I'm trying to create a comic book about a moose that lives on the moon. I'm thinking that in his adventures he's going to try taking over different planets, like Capt. Cornbread. That's just the first few issues, hopefully. The reason I'm writting is because I'd like to know if anyone thinks my idea is full or foul. Is it good or bad? Of course, if I like how it's working out I'm going to get some other stuff going on. Actually, I might use different ideas to start with and then a...
You know, it's funny when people call you weird for doing something like hugging a water fountain or licking a spark plug. What if I said that that's perfectly normal because I do it too? Could it THEN be called normal? I'm here to say yes it could. Let's say you're walking through amish country wearing a poncho because it's raining. One of them might think you're strange because it looks like you're wearing a trashbag in the rain. Living in the city (and remember, we're imagining this stu...
I have been thinking lately, and I just realized that having a girlfriend that does so many awesome things for you is hard. The best example that comes to mind is from Christmas. Sarah gets up in front of the whole band and tells us all that she has written me a song. A friend of ours, Rich, helped her put music to it. So, she gets up there and starts singing. I'm sure if you understand the jokes in it you'd probably be laughing the whole time but instead I was crying because she basica...
Of course, if I wanted to look like someone I'm not I'd say that it don't care how many points I have. That obviously, isn't what I'm going to be saying in this article though. Basically, I just want to know why my last article, "Are Athletes Paid Too Much?", shows that I have over 800 points off of it but yet I haven't recieved a single one of those points. I even made sure to post it to my site this time because I've done this before when I'd just make an article in the forum sectio...
I'm sorry if this topic has been used up before but I am debating it in my senior skills class and I would like some input from some of you if you'd be so kind. My teacher said that she'd like it more if we had something like that and I figured this would be a GREAT way to do so. My stand is that athletes aren't paid too much. The main points that are brought are for my arguement are that it's dangerous, the practice for the sports is intense, and they bring the people in so they make the...
Ok now, seriously. You may think this a just a nother attempt of mine to get points and in a way it is because I like getting points but this is seriously adorable, IMO. Alright, so, I was walking around school the other day with a friend of mine (Jeffers) when suddenly he disappears as I go looking for more teachers to buy stuff off of us. When I go back to where I thought he was I found him at the computer of one of the teachers at the elementary. I was waiting for him to finish up wh...
I'm not exactly sure how would be best to do this but I thought, even though it's a bit late for it now, that I would give out a few thanks to the three JUs that I think have made the biggest/best impression on me so far. To start with, I'd like to thank GCJ for being there to push me on to write what I like writing about when I first came here about this time in 2002. My first few article that actually got replies almost always had an uplifting comment from gemcityjoe. Thank you for your ...
I hate some of the t.v. I watch sometimes. I find myself watching things I really shouldn't. Just yesterday, I found that I was watching SpongeBobSquarepants and there was a part where he's playing hay in a needle stack with the squirel. Then it hit me that of all the "stupid" cartoons I've watched this is one of the very few that I can't stand. How can I honestly enjoy watching a show that seems to promote homosexuality. Seriously, if you don't see it you haven't watched the show for mor...
I want to see what happens when I listen to nothing but jazz for a month. Will it change the way I behave? Well, I've always liked jazz but I don't have any cd's worth listening to yet. Before I can see what a jazzed up life would be like I need some tunage. Does anybody have any good suggestions for me to go look into. I'm thinking about just buying as many as I can in the shortest amount of time as I can. This way I won't already be "tired" of any of the cd's when I start my experim...
We all have secrets, but as I was reading an article of notsosmellysarah's I realized that I don't know much about most of you. All I really know is what name you go by on here. So, I've decided to try and find SOMETHING out about you all. This is my plan... I tell you a secret and then you reply with a little known secret about youself. If you're not comfortable with that maybe you could just tell something interesting about yourself. Alright, here's mine: When I was in 4th grade...
