Socks are fab!! (sometimes)


So I was thinking second period about socks for some reason. It got me thinking about all the different kinds of socks. There are ankle socks, knee high socks, toe socks, striped socks and all the other designs on socks you can possibly think of. There are socks with chickens, socks with polka dots...there are a million different kinds of socks. But I have two problems with socks, make that three. One, I always manage to lose one of the pair in the dryer. It's like the dryer eats them. I mean eat the lint dryer, not my socks. I need them. I get mad when that happens. And because I lose one, well that leads me to my next point. I can never find two of the same sock. I mean I try to find two similar socks but sometimes I get a white one and a black one because I need to get going because I'm rushed (always), so I grab two socks and they don't match. I hate that! My last problem with socks is that I hate them. I love the summer because I can wear flip flops. Socks are just an excuse to cover something else up. Don't get me wrong, I sure don't want my feet wet or dirty, but I hate wearing socks. I'm wearing them now but that's only because my feet are cold. I do have cute hot pink slipper socks which I love, but I'm just too lazy to get them. Oh, one more reason I hate socks....if you wear them to bed, you end up losing them because they fall off so when you rearrange your room, you find about 7 unmatching socks behind your bed. I'm an ankle sock person myself and I own mostly white socks but I was just wondering what kind of socks you all wear. Are toe socks your thing? Do you like colored socks? What do you like?

The Greatest High School Ever!!!

Well I surely cannot compete with Colin Rambo's sweet high schools around the globe, but I feel he wouldn't mind the high school I wish I was in. I think all high schools even the one's that Colin Rambo talks about, should have music! Music everywhere!!! Posters of new music and old music, from Fuel to Led Zeppelin. Music is so important in our lives. It speaks to us the way that no person/friend can speak to us. It gives us experiences that we can relate to and emotional attachment to those songs which help us to get through the bad times and live in the good times. Music is everywhere and I love it so much that I think there should be a music high school. Every class is learned in song (I think you math teachers out there could take a lesson, if you create a song about a topic, maybe I'll remember it for once). Teachers will have to be good at singing and the subject they are teaching. There are so many undercover singers out there that it shouldn't be too awfully hard to find teachers. Lessons can be sung to famous songs like "Money" or "We All Live in a Yellow Submarine." I would learn so much better because I love to sing, so lessons would be made easier. Also, if instruments were involved like a piano or guitar it would get the kids more involved. It would give them music skills and also the skills the state says are "necessary." I think that an all music school would be great and I would take part in it, DEFINITELY!!!

What do you think of this idea?
