Web 2.0

So now we have to blog about Web 2.0. I think first of all that its a stupid name for modern web design. Why dont we just say "Modern web design" instead of "Web 2.0." So web 2.0 is basically like the design of a web page. Before web 2.0 surfing the internet was hard and every web page was all messy and ugly and flashy and stuff. Web 2.0 is what is easy and nice looking. It is simple and tells you what you need to know without having to navigate through a bunch of links. It also is community based. you can talk to your friends and stuff and let people know what you were thinking. Kinda like myspace. So web 2.0 is really great and all but we need to have a better name for it.

Computer

So im in computer class and Mr. Mays is talking about twitter. He says we dont need twitter and i agree. We dont need it at all and its just to express yourselfand make you think someone might actually listen. Not many people do listen. Now he is talking about, as he put it, "The Albuquerque Journey." He totally messed up dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.flickr.com/photos/davidteter/2438971547/ A photo of a rusty piece of metal that our teacher wants us to talk about. Its pointless and has no meaning to me whatsoever. Probably some punk kid just being stupid. He thought it was funny but everyone else thought it was important or something. It is'nt important, get over it. Its a picture of rusty metal with the words "but we're alive" written on it in silver sharpie or maybe its silver paint. Boring and useless. A waste of time if you ask me.

Twitter

I am supposed to blog about why i dont like "twitter" but i think its pretty cool but its kinda confusing. I dont understand all the replying stuff. It makes no sense but i still kinda like it. We will see how it turns out.

U.S. election

What is the most important issue facing voters in the U.S. today? Who the heck knows. Everybody is different. Some may think the war on iraq is the most important issue. For others it might be taxes or abortion or gay marriage or dependence on foreign oil. Everyones views on things are different. You cant make a general statement saying that one thing is important to everyone. Some people couldn't give a darn what the candidate thinks about the war. There isn't a way to say what is most important to U.S. voters. If i had to say what an issue would be that most people think is important i would have to say the war in Iraq. I say this because alot of people are worried about how many troops are dying and how much money is being spent. Most people have a view on this issue. That is why i would say it would be most important. Everyone has something to say. We may not care what they have to say but they still say it.

Spring Break

So spring break was alright but i did alot of work and it was more tiring than school. I wanted to just rest and relax and have a good time but i didnt get to do that. On Tuesday i left for our band tour. I didnt want to go at all but it ended up being pretty fun. We played our first concert on Tuesday in Roswell. It was at some random school that nobody knows about. They had like 70 kids in the whole school but they liked having us because they liked getting out of class. Then we drove to Ruidoso and checked in to our hotel. It was pretty nice but there was a constant problem of room keys not working and it was kind of annoying. The best part of the tour was staying in the hotel. The next day we played 2 concerts. One in the morning for an even smaller school of like 25 kids. Then one at night for a church. The church concert was the best and it was a good way to end the tour. Then we went to our hotel and stayed one more night. We left later that day at around 10 and went to eat breakfast at dennys. The trip back was nice and that ended the tour. We got home at around 7:30 that night. Friday was my only day of rest this spring break. I didnt do much except go to youth group that night. Saturday was very eventful. In the morning my brother and i went to do yard work for some guy. It was hard work and we made 27 dollars each. His neighbors want us to do their yard this coming saturday. It was about a 3 hour job. Then after that was over i went to all star practice for basketball. That was rough and it got me pretty tired. Then later that night i went to see a movie. On sunday i worked at church for a few hours and went home. That was my spring break, if you can even call that a break.

Basketball/Spring Break

So my brothers team lost yesterday in overtime. The score was 61-63. It was a lucky shot by some punk kid. They should have won but this kid threw up a 3 point shot and made it. So anyway i have to write about what im doing for spring break because our computer teacher is making us. I am going on a band tour to ruidoso and i think carlsbad so we can show everyone how bad we are. We used to be really good but we lost most of our good players and now we dont have a decent trumpet player so the whole band goes down hill. Anyway, after i get back from that then im doing nothing else but sitting around all day until spring break is over. Actually im taking my ACT on saturday so it wont be to boring. I just want to get school over with this year. Its really taking a toll on me.

Basketball Game

So i went to my little brothers basketball games yesterday and in the first game they got slaughtered. I missed most of the first game because i had band practice after school for an hour and 15 minutes. So i got to the game at the end of the 3rd quarter. It really sucked. The other team had some dude thats like 6'4" and is in 8th grade. Not natural. I was like 5' in 8th grade. The second game they slaughtered the other team. It was pretty awesome. Now they are moving on to the next round in the tournament. If they win the next game then they get to play the team that they got slaughtered by in the championship game. Maybe the next time they play them they will be a little better.
