Got false memories? I doubt it Part I

Tagged:  •    •    •    •  

So...I had planned to write more about dissociation in a nice, orderly, professional way.

But you know how they say that life is what happens when you're making other plans?

Bingo. So we'll just have to come back to that after you know this. Who likes bedtime

stories? *gasps with delight as hands shoot up*

Road to Vegas Day 7: The Longest Day of My Life

Tagged:  •    •    •  

So I haven't really been on in the last 2 days because I've been so busy, but if you didn't notice, today is Day 7. That's right, my week is up. I leave for Vegas tomorrow. Right now it's all nerves for me.

Road to Vegas Day 3: I Am "That" Girl

Tagged:  •    •    •  

5 days and counting! Today's updates: I haven't gotten much actual work done today, just a lot of research and I started packing. I've also started working on blocking out possible questions I'll receive. I did get one speech done about establishing universal health care. Our district wrote this one so I have to go affirmative.
Today's lesson: don't piss off a female on a mission!

Road to Vegas Day 2: Dinner Guests

Tagged:  •    •  

Six days left. I feel like I'm counting down my life, I guess in a sense I am. This is the last time I'll be competing in debate. Today's lesson in progress: making connections to the real world.
First, let me update you all on the work. I finished speeches for amusement park safety, establishing a fair tax, establishing a fair trade policy, reforming sex education, and creating a lunar colony.

Road to Vegas Day 1: Crunch Time!

Tagged:  •    •    •    •  

Over the next week I'll be posting a daily update on my last week before I leave for Las Vegas. I'm leaving next Saturday to compete in the National Forensics League national debate tournament. I'm competing in Senatorial Congress, which is essentially like real Congress.

ABC Pennsylvania Democratic "debate"

Tagged:  •    •    •    •  

I am appalled by the recent display of the media. First ABC hosts a reprehensible debate where questions irrelevant to the current issues of American society and our involvement with issues abroad, were asked. 45 minutes passed until finally a question of substance was asked.

Evolution debate - "Intelligent Design on Trial" [part two - my opinion]

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •  

In my opinion, the evolutionists presented a very silly, shallow argument. They were arguing that evolution should be taught solely, without any teaching about other theories. In this way, they were really arguing that only their way of thinking should be taught. This is not a principle that this nation was built on.

I just don't understand.

I just don't understand.
Why do most white/caucasian people always want to bring up issues that don't exist? Why is it that when a race debate is opened the first thing they do is bring up the things blacks have and whites don't? They are always saying well you have Black History Month. They say you have BET. They say you have colleges, scholarships and whatnot.
