I could really get used to this.

So anyway, I guess introductions would be made now, but since there's a really low chance of this being read by anyone that I don't personally know, I won't bother. It's time for me to rant about something random and probably stupid.



Um...


Got no ideas to rant about.

Hey, that's a good idea!
So looks like my first rant will be about not having any ideas when you need to write a paper or something like that. Yeah, it's pretty stupid, but when a teenager wants to start basic for a first rant, he's got nothing better.
Now, I know you've been in this situation before. No matter how old you are, at one point in your life you've been assigned a paper to write about something. For example, a couple of days ago, in school, I had to take this poem about a survivor of the Holocaust (Gerda Weissmann, her story is really touching and sad if you read it, which you should), take quotes from it, and add in your own lines about your goals, dreams, and difficult times, which is what her poem was about. So I had a bunch of quotes from her poem, but I couldn't think of anything to write about myself. I'm sitting there, thinking, "This is a stupid assignent. I haven't had any truly difficult times! I haven't had that many great memories! I seriously don't think I have any true goals or dreams! I'm just a kid! I'm not in a situation like the Holocaust, where my friends and family are dying left and right!" So I pretty much procrastinated on the assignment until I decided to make everything music related. It worked, but it doesn't go so well other times. Most of the time, if I don't have an idea, usually I just sit there and make something up, and turn in a last-minute assignment. I know this isn't a good habit, but I've gotten used to it, and I'm talented at doing it now. Of course, it wouldn't be a problem if I was inspired easily, but I'm not. Usually I'm completely braindead. I can only give other people ideas, not make them for myself. If anyone wants an idea for their report, come to me. I'll give you an idea that you'll probably love, while I sit here and fail to create an idea for myself. It's pretty funny though, seeing as on these last-minute assignments, I always manage to break free with a good grade. Ironically, on assignments I really try hard on, I tend to score worse than rushed assignments. Tis isn't always true, but it is sometimes. I guess I just work better under pressure.
This is getting too long. Im going to stop this post and continue studying my math. Stupid geometry... I should make a rant about how badly I suck at math tonight or tomorrow. That'll probably be my next post, but it might not, if you people don't want to hear it. I'll try to reply to each comment, and make a new post ASAP, either tonight or tomorrow. I'll be up late.
