I am going to make a goal right now to post at least two times a week, so if you ever have any ideas for me please tell me. I may be super awesome and creative but even I will have a hard time thinking of things to write on. I will also try to post at least one picture per post, but that might not happen.
Responding: -What is your opinion on having a limit on # of children (such as china)
My opinion for pretty much everything is it all depends. I don’t think there is a universal law for everything and everyone, for something to be effective it has to cater to the specific situation. But for China, I do think that it is necessary. China has way too many people and if they didn’t do anything about it, they would be stacked like anchovies on top each other. They are almost to that point anyways. People argue about Planned Parenthood saying we need the continuation of our species, hull-lo! We have nearly seven billion humans on this planet; I don’t think that’s going to be a problem. I remember when I was little and they would say there were only five billion people on Earth, that’s nearly two billion in what, eight years? But for like Montana, it has plenty of space to offer so they wouldn’t need a restriction.
My philosophy is we should build up instead of out. It’s far more effective in my opinion. Building up saves space and if built right, more energy efficient. I’m not saying it doesn’t have its downsides, but I do think it has more upsides than down. Building up would give more space for farming food and solar energy fields. And if it is more than just a residential building than you could just go down and get your food or shopping instead of getting in the car a polluting the air. I designed this super massive skyscraper that is a small city. There was just the building surrounded by fields and fields of farms. It would be totally self-sufficient, no need for cars because everything is in the building, and no need to truck in food because it is surrounded by the fields. I hope that one day, this dream will become a reality.
In Utah we desperately need to start building up. We are very, very rapidly losing farm lands to housing development, and we are building businesses in a few central locations, making the need to have to travel to do or get anything. And we are keeping all these old houses from the ‘50s and ‘60s, they are not historical nor energy efficient so why bother to keep them? I made a plan on MS Paint to turn my whole neighborhood into an apartment complex and park. And I would post that picture, except that I can’t find it on my computer. On a boring and rainy day I even designed a public transit map for the Clearfield-Roy area (I can’t find that picture either)
Wow, I went off topic, but oh well. In conclusion I think that some places do need laws about how many kids you can have, because we just plain can’t fit all 7,000,000,000 of us.

I Want YOU

I don’t know what to talk about. I want to discuss something and show my point of view, but I’m out of ideas. Give me ideas for my next blog post in the comments! It could be anything, well not anything. Something not boring, an maybe something I won’t have to do much research on(I’m lazy like that).
So give me ideas!
Also, on another note, I am currently writing something, and I would like people to read it, but I’m not sure how. Also, I have some serious writers block, and lack of self-motivation. I thought of my story plot, and recently changed it, because I thought it was too boring. So, even though not much has been written, I will do a Book Review Corner on it sometime soon, maybe even the next post. I will tell you the title now, The Tridantey Virus. Sounds cool huh?
Have a great day people! And give me ideas!

Book Review Corner!!

It’s time for a Seth book review!!! Duh, duh-duh-duh duh duuuuuh!!!! K-chsk!! I just barely made up that fancy little diddy right here on the spot. Anyways, the book I will be reviewing is Matched. I FREAKIN love this book. Of course I’m a big sucker for dystopian future novels; this one is still just plain amazing. I highly recommend this book, if you love loved the Hunger Games trilogy. Matched makes you think just like the Hunger Games. Although Matched makes you think more about to what extent do you want the government to help you, and how much they can control. In Matched the government does and provides everything for you, you make no choices. They decide what you eat, what you will do, and who you will marry. This book makes no reference to religion, so I am assuming that the Society did away with it. One thing I like(to an extent) is that everyone is equal. You are so equal that you don’t really own anything that is truly and just yours. Something that I didn’t notice until I looked at a book trailer of it, was that in the Society they is no such thing as money.
A bad thing about the Society is that since there is no money, you have to contribute to the government. It reminds me of the Aztec Empire, they had no money, but everything they needed was provided for them. And the Society does away with you when you can no longer contribute. This book brings up the matter of death, and what is a good way to go. In the Society they felt that eighty is the optimal age to die, so on your eightieth birthday you die. That sounds so horrible when you think about it, knowing when you’re going to die, but on your last day, you get to spend it with all your friends and family and get to eat whatever you want(which is a big deal in the Society) and when you die, at midnight your family is all there holding your hand. At first that sound so horrible, but if you really ponder it, is it really that bad? You get to die with all your loved ones being with you and your last meal could’ve been cake and ice cream.
Let me know what you think! Would you like to die like that, with all of your loved ones, or live in uncertainty and maybe said “I hate you” to your best friend, then you or the friend die the next day.
Anyways, overall Matched was just fantastic. I would like to say more, but I don’t want to spoil anything.
Have a good day everyone!
PS, if you’re wondering why I am posting this so early in the day, it’s because I am in school right now, in Computer Tech. I know, I’m such a bad boy. I’m bad to da bone! See how I said “da” instead of “the” that was me being all gangsta!

Do you belive in division?

Do you believe in division? I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, and I’m starting to think I do. We have been studying government lately in World Civ, and I have been studying it on my own. It’s kind of fascinating for me, I’m not sure why. Anyways, I know this sounds kind of horrible and mean, but I think that we need to be divided up. We are all making each other go crazy and getting on each other’s nerves with opposing views. So why not have different sects of a city devoted to a certain thing. It’s not like we wouldn’t be allowed to see others in different sects, or be allowed there, but there would be certain rules. i know that would greatly reduce the cultural diversity and new ideas in our world, but I think people would be generally more happier. And I also think it would reduce hate, and hate crimes.
For example, some people are religious and some are not, if they lived in different sects than they could live by different standards in peace. Some people don’t think that same-sex marriage should be legal, so they would live in a different sect than someone who does.
So what do you think? Do you agree or disagree? Let me know!

Dear Algebra...

Dear Algebra,

First off I want to say I hate you. No offense or anything  I'm just being honest. 
Second, you mix letters and numbers. They are separate for a good reason: they were never meant to be together. so why do you put them together? Oh and why did you seduce the American school systems to think that we need to learn you?! When ever I try to find help the adult always says that they forgot it. What does that say to me? That I don't need you so why am I being forced to learn you and your older brother Algebra II and your cousin Geometry?! 
And, most people don't like you, so take a hint and go hang out with the geeks who actually like and will use you. I haven't yet picked a career but I will most likely no use you since like 90% of careers  don't even need your younger brother, Prealgebra. 
Sure you have your uses, just not to everyone. Don't get me wrong, I don't think that you should disappear because you are worth something, just not to me and the general population. 
So I can tell this isn't going to be resolved at least not anytime soon, so I will just continue to hate you while you continue to torture me for the rest of the year. When I'm an adult I'll just forget you like the rest of adults and I will be content with our relationship.
Love,
Seth

Sometimes I

Sometimes I wear my headphones on with no music(sometimes not connected to my iPod even) in public just so no one will talk to me. 
Haha, I felt like being witty today. 
Hrmmm... What else to say, not much still hasn't happened, I have a boring life. I know, I know, I say ALL the time bit it's true. Probably the most exciting thing I did since I last posted was see Beastly with my friends. I also saw I Am Number Four a few days prior to that, and it was pretty awesome. 
Movie time review! Beastly-overall I loved it. I saw with Crystal, Carlos, Kierin, and Kyan. I think Vanessa Hudgens is a talented actress even though she has made some mistakes. I also have to tip my hat to the makeup artist(s), they did a great job of making Kyle/Hunter look ugly. 
I Am Number Four-it was kinda tenniebopper like the reviews said, but still freakin amazing. Move over vampires, aliens are the new thing. 

What to say...

I really felt like I should have posted again, but nothing has really happened that's blog worthy.
I have been doing art, and I love it. But lately, I have been having a creative block. And also I haven't been in a artsy mood. If you want to see pictures of my art, it's on Facebook.
I have been contemplating the unthinkable. I might not go to Stanley to work. Aunt Janet emailed me saying how things will be very different there, and her house will be very crowded. Like she said that they wont allow electronics. I'm a tech junkie, and I am addicted to my cell phone. I want to retain contact with the rest of the world, and my friends. I am NOT an outdoorsie person, so being up in Stanley doesn't give me a a big variety of stuff to do that I like. So I go to one of my best friends, Internet! But I may not be able to... I could do other things, but what? There's the obvious, like drawing and painting, but I really can't think of anything else that i can do. Listening to music is electronic, writing stories is electronic, and texting is electronic, those are the things I do the most. I could write everything out, but I hate doing that because I will have to type it later. I could always spend all my time at the library, but it closes early, and it's a mile and a half away. I already applied at all the jobs I could work at in my area, and they all turned me down. My teacher told me that here, most places wont hire till 17, even though 16 is legal. That's where I get all my spending money for the year is work. If I don't, then I will be bored out of my mind. Ugh, I don't know what to do...
Well that's about it... Nothing else has happen since January.... Wow, I sound so pathetic...
