I just finished writing a 3-page paper on my stance on genetic engineering for biology, and it was actually very difficult to write. It was 100% your opinion and required no research, so I thought it was going to take like an hour. But as I started writing, I realized that I could not care less. Not because I think it is an unimportant issue, because I know very well that it is, but because I have absolutely no experience with it. I've been lucky enough to go my whole life without knowing someone close to me that has needed a serious organ transplant, so I really can't speak to that side of it. I just think its a little irrational to ask a class of sophmores to write a big paper taking sides on something they're most likely never experienced before.
Music.
For those of you who haven't heard the song "Tonight, Tonight" by Hot Chelle Rae, go watch the music video. Right now. Here, I'll make it easy for you. I'll put a link right here:

Its not necesarily thats it's a super mega foxy awesome hot song or anything, because it's not, but its quirky. Repetitive, but quirky. It's funny because one of the lines when they're talking about partying is "Even the white kids".
They happen to all be white.
And, little did I know before I watched the video, Chord Overstreet (Sam from Glee) is in the music video because his brother is one of the lead singers. What is it with attractive guys on Glee with successful, musical brothers? Chord and Nash, Darren and Chuck. It's great.
Another song I've been fairly obsessed with since I first heard it in french class is "Lucie" by Pascal Obispo. Link below.

Its not quirky like "Tonight, Tonight", its actually kind of emotional, but its just a really sweet song. Plus it's in french so it sounds 18097953y40589734528906523 times better. The dramatic pause he takes between "Le temps" and "C'est de l'amour" has kind of become a joke. Its even more dramatic if you watch the live version.
Speaking of French, on the bus ride home today, the girl sitting behind me just randomly broke out in fluent French. You could pretty much say I was beyond awe-struck until I found out she had lived in France for most of her life.
I have so much more to write about today, and I promise I'll write about it soon, but right now I think I might lose my mind if I try to stay up any longer, so, until next post!
Le temps...
C'est de l'amour. hahahahaha
Your science teacher most likely assigned you this paper to make you start thinking about important topics like this.
