Online, I am...

When I am online, I am either a slacker or a worker. I barely go on the computer at my house, because I don't use a lot of social networking sites. I don't use Youtube much, because I don't listen to a lot of music, and funny videos get boring after a while. I also don't play many games, because I can't play them at home, and there is too much work to be done here at school. Don't get me wrong, the internet is great and everything, but to me it's just another one of those things I could live without if I had to. Many kids really would be almost dead without the internet, because it would make our work so much harder. We would actually have to browse the books in the libraries to get our info! In short, I don't absolutely need or use the internet much, except when I have to.

With this paragraph, I answered the question of an online blogging challenge site. The question was: "What kind of online user are you?"

Beast of England Review

When you are looking at the videos, only use the first one. I had a lot of trouble memorizing the tune to this song, because of the mix of "Clementine" and "La Chucaracha." In my opinion, the song would have been better if it had just been sung to the tune of "Clementine."

When I write...

In the past two months that I have been writing, I have made much improvement, because of the new styles I write. I have always considered myself a very descriptive writer, but I may be a little full of myself at this point.I have always liked the way i write, especially when I am writing poetry. I have a certain knack for rhyming that I and a few other people think is a bit uncanny. I once wrote a poem that was nominated to be included in a book of children's literature. I have been known for putting all my mind into the things I write when I have strong feelings about the subject. One of the things I struggle with in my writing is length. Most of the time, I write either too little or too much. it is a rare event when I write a a paper that enjoys a happy medium in between. This being said, I consider myself and average-proficient writer.

Sweden....

If I could communicate with any country in the world, it would be Sweden. I believe that my deepest ancestral roots lie there, if not in Germany. I researched Sweden a lot when I was in elementary school. I wish I remembered more about it, besides the fact the their meatballs are delicious. If I was talking to the Swedish government right now, I would ask them some questions like, "What is the name for your currency?," and "What style of governing do you practice?" I could probably get this stuff off the internet, but that isn't as productive as getting the answers firsthand.
