Everything and Anything

Well I have decided that my math teacher is a Bitch. Yep I said it, she is a bitch. Apparently if you don’t have a math problem in your response to something it is not a meaningful post. So I am now going to fail this class because she is an incompetent fool.

She never said what she actually considered a decent post. She didn’t help anyone until it was too late, really I’m not impress and tempted to contact the school and ask for my money back. I don’t feel that she is a good teacher for an online class. There were many first time online students who had no idea what to do as she just assumed everyone had taken an online class.

I really needed to pass this class and now I just don’t see it happening. I just don’t know what to do. I can’t drop it now without paying for the whole thing. I’m waiting for her response as to why my post are bad and if she can’t give me a good response I guess I’m going to have to go into a huge argument with the school.

Oh and again never ever go to Baker Collage, they suck. The only reason I’m still there is that my credits won’t transfer anywhere else.

There is a huge reason I complain about not finding a job. I live in Michigan. Where the unemployment rate is now over 8% well above the national average of about 5%. If you don’t believe me read about the problems. Yahoo has a great article about the economic problems here. If you don’t feel something you are heartless.

Many of these people will never see the jobs they once had come back, auto companies are gone forever no matter what some people here say. It just cost too much to pay people here. Unions have killed the auto industry.

The story talks about people my age trying to find work. One homeless who is worried he won’t get a job because he doesn’t have a phone number, just email. I’m assuming he checks it at a local library or at school. Yes he is homeless and a student. One man won’t even put his degree on his resume because he’s afraid of being told what I have been, your overqualified.

I have heard people in other states claim that they have it the hardest with gas prices and the housing market, but they are working and the jobs in their areas are either stable or growing some. How do they have it hard when we have nothing, are losing our jobs and no hope of anything for a while. Our Governor is working hard to get industry here in Michigan, but it’s not easy, even then they will not employ as many people as the auto industry and it will take years to catch on.

So next time your looking at high gas prices and heading to your job, think about the people who are having to pay these high gas prices just to find a job, many who unfortunately won’t be finding anything for a long time. They are the ones hurting the most.

I’m reading on yahoo as I usually end up doing a few times a day and I come across this story on global warming and how we really could be in some big trouble soon. Now I was enjoying my reading until I got to this part.

Longtime global warming skeptic Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., citing a recent poll, said in a statement, “Hansen, (former Vice President) Gore and the media have been trumpeting man-made climate doom since the 1980s. But Americans are not buying it.”

Taken from Yahoo

The first though in my head after reading this was “who are you to tell me what I believe and what I think!” Personally I feel that most Americans are not stupid and can see what is right in front of their damn face. Now if this man stopped getting his income from oil and other environmentally harming companies then maybe he would see differently.

This brings me to my question, the title of my post. Global Warming are you buying it or do you think it’s just a made up dooms day scenario?

I don’t normally complain about walmart, I never complain about the one I worked at near my moms home, but today I had a bad experience and I think it’s something that is happening everywhere not just at walmart.

My sister and I went in to recycle our pop bottles and we did okay, but the machines kept filling and the poor girl in the back could not keep up. There were many other people waiting their turn but some just gave up and left. When I went in because the machine wouldn’t take some of the bottles they sold there was no people greater, turns out she was the girl in the bottle room. So I went to the service desks and complained. I was laughed at and told to leave my bottles next to the podium they have. I was not happy since I was laughed at for trying to help them.

Anyway eventually they got someone at the door and I got a slip for the bottles. The other good news is that the store manager came out and fixed everything very quickly, I know one person I used to work with saw how upset I was, she may have had something to do with the manager coming out.

I have enough problems with mood swings on my own now that my PR is back up on this blog I’m finding I am very frustrated and wishing that maybe it hadn’t happened. I wasn’t even going to mention it because I didn’t think it was that big of a deal. I did hope that some good things would come of it, but I guess not.

I’m finding that others blogs went up as well so I’m still stuck where I was at before and even more frustrated because of it. I know I shouldn’t complain and I’m not really just venting my frustration at how the world works and how it always seems to give me something good, just to make it so that good thing screws up my life or something I wanted. Crazy how that always works.

Many of you reading this may have seen the story about the 14 year old boy who is being charged with terrorism. If you haven’t you can read about the story Good Morning America did by clicking here.

What I don’t understand is why this child after so long still has not received counseling? This child could still come out of this okay and be a good member of society. Trust me when I tell you all, bullying in school can have some very negative effects on a person later in life. They may not always turn out to be criminals but it does effect their daily lives.

I’m a great example of that. When I was young I moved a lot. I moved from Michigan to Colorado and back to Michigan again. In third grade I started at yet another new school, I had been to 5 by then and had no problem fitting into those, but this one was different. I was one of two families that lived in an low income all black neighborhood, but I went to a mostly rich white school. I talked different because I had a very slight accent from Colorado, I was overweight and in 3rd grade starting to lose my hair. I got picked on, I was told I was worthless, I would die alone, no one would ever love me and I was constantly told I was fat and ugly. Most of this was by one group of girls and went on for 2 years.

Today those taunts still are with me. They effect everything I do, even if I don’t realize it. There are times I still think, they are right I will die alone or yes, I am fat and ugly. The thing is except for a few issues with my mom a few years ago and one friend I have not heard that from anyone since. I get looks from guys because of my weight, but that I can deal with, at least for a while.

Bullying does so much to a child that I can see why he snapped. Should he be punished yes, but not as an adult, he is still too young to know the consequences of his actions, most 18 year olds still can’t get a good grip on that! The first thing that anyone should have done is to get him counseling, but no people are idiots and don’t care about this child and what he needs. They just want to pretend they are over in Iraq fighting terrorist! This is what I have to say to them, this kid is not a terrorist, he didn’t do anything! If he had, then maybe you could say that, but it was caught early enough that the possibility of it happening was cut off. You don’t know if he would have gone though with it and now you can help him so it doesn’t happen again, oh wait sorry you didn’t and now he’s been though more. Great Job Idiots!

What do you think, should he have gotten counseling or should he get tried as an adult and go into an adult penitentiary with a bunch of adult criminals who could influance him to go the wrong way?

I am starting to get tired of the same old snacks every day. I have to have 2 a day and I can’t skip them. It’s actually getting annoying since I can’t seem to come up with something different to eat. It’s not a huge problem when I’m at home, I love popcorn so I just pull out the old popper we have and make some. I think though I need to look around at some new popcorn machines and get something for when I move out.

Anyway, it seems that every time I find something healthy to snack on that I can eat in the car they take it of the shelf. I have tried taking things with me, but I have 4 hour classes and with the temperatures going up I cant keep anything in the car. It just makes me mad that the healthy snack foods are being torn off the shelf in favor of junk that is horrible for you. Yes I can find these things in a grocery store, but again it’s big bags and much more then one serving. Then I take it home and wonder what I’m going to do with it.

Has anyone else noticed this problem or is is just here in Michigan? It’s not just my home area either I drive halfway across the state for school and it’s the same there.
