Mountain Dew rots your insides, children

Hello there once again! As if you couldn't tell, or if you're just plain dumb, I really don't have a life. My Friday nights don't consist of much besides watching Full House, Brady Bunch, and Reba reruns, movies, and pigging out until I wanna barf. But tonight is way specialer because my wonderful, loving mommy bought Mountain Dew the other day at the store. And I've had 4 glasses since about 5:00! My insides are rotting as I type.





I'm not just blogging out of boredom though. I attempted to do my German homework, (Yes, I was THAT bored.) and I realized (well, not really, I already knew this) that learning a foreign language is useless. Absolutely pointless, dumb, stupid, and unuseful. Most countries also speak English, and if they don't, all you really need to know how to say is a few necessary words and phrases, such as: bathroom, food, please, thank you, your welcome, airport, hotel, etc. And learning another language is HARD. Yeah, people may think you're all smart and stuff if your bilingual, but you really aren't. At least that's what my mom says, and she's been teaching since forever. Don't contradict her, she will prove you wrong.





And it doesn't help that our textbooks are prehistoric and Germany has changed currencies and other traditions since its publication. Plus, the people are really ugly and they dress horribly. Okay, it's only from like 1990 but still. Wow. I barely remember half the crap in that book. Seriously, they talk so formally.






For example:


Wie findest du den Pulli hier?

Ich finde den Pulli schick.



Translation:


How do you find the sweater?

I find the sweater stylish.





No one in their right mind talks like that.

But I do remember the first German phrase I ever learned. Yeah, it's corny, but I learned it from my dad when I was like 7. And I remember it still. Yet I don't remember how to ask where the bathroom is and I learned that less than a year ago.


Können Sie Fliegen fangen?


Ja, once sie hucke blive!




Translation:

Can you catch flies?

Yes, once they sit still!


I don't think that's exactly how it's spelled, but something to that effect. I used to think it was so cool because, well, it's another language! Which is WAY COOL to a 7-year-old.

And as I have stated before, it is extremely useless to learn German. And really confusing. Do you know how many words they have for 'the'? 5. Der, die, das, den, dem. Do you have a clue when to use which one? Yeah, me neither.
And do you know how many words they have for 'a'? 5. Ein, eine, einen, einer, einem. I don't have a clue when to use those either. And do you have any clue what the dative, nominative, and accusative cases are? Yeah, I thought so. Pointless, I tell you.

GUESS WHAT?! Only 18 more days until Christmas! The 2nd best holiday ever! What is the first, you ask? My birthday, of course. Yeah, it's not a holiday, but in my mind it is. And the 3rd is Halloween. Although I think that's probably more like 2nd, tied with Christmas. I love Christmas. And not just because I'm greedy and I want presents. I like being with my family (shocker, I know) and eating cookies and snow and hot chocolate and christmas lights (possibly the best things ever invented) and of course, presents. I like the homeade ones too. They're just so much more special. So make me a nice little present and I'll love you forever. But this year I really really really really really really really really really REALLY want a DVD player for my bedroom. And The Goblet of Fire and The Order of the Phoenix on DVD.

I just thought of a really cool topic since I don't have anything better to do!

The 5 most beautiful men alive (no specific order)

Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance

Face it. He's gorgeous. And pure genius.




Sprout of A Hero From A Thousand Paces







Yeah, he's the one circled in red. He's way cooler than you'll ever be.





Ray Toro of My Chemical Romance









That's the sexiest afro I've ever seen.





Craig Owens of Chiodos







He's gorgeous. And yes, I met him. I know, you all hate me now.





Daniel Radcliffe of Harry Potter







Yes, I really hate British accents, but how could you not love that smile?






And last but not least (drum roll please...)
Edward Cullen of Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse!

(I know he's fictional, but in my mind he's the most beautiful thing ever)







You've got to admit, that would be very gorgeous in real life.

(Yeah, that's 6. Deal with it.)



And now for yet another tidbit of useless-but-also-useful-information!
DID YOU KNOW...

Hitler and Napolean only had one testicle?

Must be the cause of the whole taking-over-world scheme.



Now that I'm finished rambling, I think i shall go do something important.

Like catch up on Brady Bunch, Season 3



Auf Wiedersehen!

(which means goodbye in Deutsch, but translated literally it means see you later, i think)

=)
