How Important is Status?

What determines someone's popularity? Well, there are quite a few. The people you know, how good of an athlete you are, your appearance, and your grades (in some cases, the worse your grades are, the more popular you'll be). I, however really don't think popularity should be based on these factors, because some of the things on this list are things that you can't really change (like appearance and athletic ability). Also, I think personality should also be on the list, because not many people who are popular are really genuinely nice. However, statuses are usually determined by these factors and a lot of these factors are universal and many also goes on into real life society. I really don't get why the people you know really matter so much, because it's not like knowing someone will change who you are. You won't suddenly become intelligent and funny and outgoing just because you know someone famous or rich.

What Will Happen In 50 Years?

I think in 50 years, they may have already found a cure to cancer! And, I hope that person will be me :)! And computers will continue to advance. Soon, everyone will have their own robots at home who will help them do all the chores and I will no longer have to do the dishes or take out the trash. There will also be hover-boards and hover-cars(like in the Uglies Series) that run on magnetic forces and the underground is all full how really strong magnet so the hover-boards and hover-car can run. A lot of medicines will be discovered but then the viruses also evolve into super viruses, threatening to wipe out human race. The human population struggle to stay alive, and 90% of the world's population is gone while the other 10% survives, Those people left will make up a new government and battle the world on their own. However, the people aren't strong enough, and most people left living are either not very smart or really old/young. So, they soon also die out and the other animals take over the Earth. Sadly, the deadly Super Virus also evolved to wipe out other types of organisms as well, so there is no more multicell organisms anymore. The single-celled organisms started to evolve after a long time and then everything started again.

Why Are We Fascinated By The Unknown?

Why are we all fascinated by the unknown. I believe curiosity is one of humans' many, many traits. We love to learn new things and because of this special trait we all have, we've gained a lot of knowledge. However, curiosity may not always be that beneficial, because the saying: "Curiosity killed the cat" may be sometimes quite true. We have always been fascinated by the unknown. Ever since we were infants, we've been like that, actually. With curiosity, our ancestors have learned about fire, science, and a lot of different things. I think being fascinated may be a good thing, but it can also have very bad effects. For example, as the horror movies always like to prove to us, curiosity can be really bad for you sometimes. You know how the girls in the movies always gets intrigued by the weird sounds or knocking coming from outside, then they'd open the door and see something really, really scary, then get their throats slit or something as horrendous as that. Curiosity is why we've always been fascinated by the unknown and it is a must have trait for us as long as we don't be too curious and take ourselves to places we wouldn't want to end up in.

What Is A Generation Gap

Parent/Kid


Turn off your computer now!

Mom (or Dad), I'm NOT done with my homework yet!

I said to turn it offf!

But...!

(interrupts) No buts, go to bed! I don't care if you're finished or not. I know you're just chatting with your friends and Facebooking.

(lying) I'm not!

(sarcastic) Oh really. Go to bed!

Fine! I'll just wake up at 5 tomorrow then! If that's what you want! (turn it off)

(scoff) As if you can wake up that time of the day.

Good night!

Night!

Would You Visit The Past If You Could?

No, I think it's way too risky. I read this series called Time Travelers or something similar to that, and I personally think going back in time is way too dangerous. You never know what you may accidentally alter and then change the whole future. Stepping on a stone in Dinosaurs Time may result in a fossil that has human record and may lead scientists to believe that humans existed that long ago. Killing a little mouse may result in a whole species dying out and the animals that depends on that specie will also die out and that would just cause a really terrible chain of events. Time traveling is way too dangerous, and I wouldn't go until many, many people goes to try it out before me (and also to go be the "experiment") and come back with no injuries at all. Traveling back in time also seems like a really weird and useless thing to do. Why not just live your life like you're supposed to and cherish every passing moment because there's no going back, instead of messing with nature. After all, we've messed with nature enough already, haven't we?
