In terms of literature; although it’s not fair to belittle a certain vampire series based a frozen turkey baser dipped in crazy glue then glitter, but all in all literature has slowly aged and is becoming instinct like the fabled queer dodo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, sometimes, like all crazed fans do, they take it too far. They tend to take it beyond points of reason, sanity and even clinically insane. Oh no, they have to prove their fanalty- fan loyalty and turn into psychos. Something that is substituted into fan nazis. Because using a little thing called freedom of speech found in Article 3 in the Universal declaration of Human rights adopted on 10th December 1948 by the UN; it says, I kid you not “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.” This right is found even more accurately in Article 19 as it states “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.” Now, with articles like these in a UNIVERSAL declaration then where are these rights when little psycho’s come and attack you for having an OPINION.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not a dictatorship, yes, you MAY like it, I’d rather you didn’t but I’m not gonna try and convert you by shoving large words you can’t even pronounce down your throat while you squander your time squealing about the characters, a so called well-developed plot and what’s more, a book that is so well-written it’s not only based off Romeo and Juliet it even exceeds aforementioned play in being “awesome”. How twilight manages to be Romeo and Juliet without being sued for copyright is beyond me, if I was shakespeare I’d be royally pissed off that someone’s taken my plot added minor changes and threw in a couple of sparkles on some characters and re-sold it as a masterpiece.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing gives ANYONE the right to attack both verbally, physically and in some cases sexually over a book. If you were a fan you shouldn’t have a problem with “haters” you shouldn’t care if you were a real fan and a real person who’s capable of compassion, empathy and something I like to call a little human decency. A reason why it’s called HUMAN decendy and not just decency right? So if you’ve ever felt like beating the crap out of people for criticising your favourite book series or author with their own opinion which is a right as has been mentioned above then you need to down the whole stock of concrete pills in your local pharmacy and harden up. There will always people out there who won’t like the book, it’s not a winning lotto ticket to a small fortune of 13.4 million dollars now is it? No? Very good, I see we are learning, and because it’s not that magic lotto ticket we all want and LIKE then what is the problem with people not liking it? Most people don’t brussel sprouts but you don’t see brussel sprouts fans trying to get revenge for poor, defenceless, tiny cabbages do you? Well no, so therefore no one has the right to do so with the application of this theory to other issues plaguing todays society.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9137845729387997858-2155785608161099613?l=kjerstifloss.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kjerstifloss.blogspot.com/feeds/2155785608161099613/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9137845729387997858&amp;postID=2155785608161099613' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9137845729387997858/posts/default/2155785608161099613'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9137845729387997858/posts/default/2155785608161099613'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kjerstifloss.blogspot.com/2009/02/chapter-two.html' title='Chapter Two'/><author><name>Angel Bright</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07523964590878812393</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0nMiF9hWoaw/SW6pwdvfOgI/AAAAAAAAAB0/1GoDNohlmlc/S220/20145792a2089419496b207137161l.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137845729387997858.post-4444251821419109481</id><published>2009-02-12T21:58:00.000+13:00</published><updated>2009-02-12T21:59:07.613+13:00</updated><title type='text'>Chapter One of Reality bites back</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Chapter One&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I won’t lie and pretend I know all the strategies of how to survive rabid fan girls especially the ones we like to call twilight retards. Because really, if you have the insane notion that a fictional character, let alone a fictional being it is time to ask yourself the important question. Was I ever dropped on my head as a baby? Did they drop me lots or like push me down a flight of stairs? Or did darling mother smoke pot, tobacco, ‘shoot up’ and get a little too drunk every day for the approximate 9 months she was pregnant with me? Or maybe I’m just another test-tube baby made in a dirty test tube? You never know. It could one of these, all of these if your mother ingested said test-tube or just a majority of them.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Now, attacks, they make us feel threatened as they should otherwise defeating the purpose of an attack. What’s an attack if it does not threaten or at least attempt to instill fear into someone? A joke? Oh haha, hilarious jokes guys. When everyone hops onto the metaphorical bandwagon for various fads it’s always a bad sign for those of us lucky enough to have semi-normal parents who wrapped us in bubble wrap so when dropped our precious little heads and brains did not get altered into a freakishly weird one as exhibited by fan girls around the world. Fads are dangerous; they create rabid fan girls usually teenage girls. Who are at their most vulnerable, playing the part of a depressed, needy maiden who needs rescuing by none other than a fictional, perfect prince.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all need to repeat this very true and EASY mantra: “fiction is not REAL” by repeating this we can make sure we will be less likely if not immune to falling into the rabid fan girl lusting over a fictional man stereotype. Yes, we all know they’re perfect, romantic everything a guy should be but the whole point of their perfection is to raise our standards of men and give them something to try and improve about themselves resulting in what is known to be Valentines Day. But it’s feministic of authors or authoress’ as they were previously known to create unrealistic expectations, men are accused of doing the same thing but about women. Now we jump down their throats while secretly planning our latest diet and exercise regime and complain about the unfairness of it all. Take a step back, take a deep breath and give poor males a chance to prove themselves as half-decent in most respects. Let your unrealistic fictional ideals go, after all most romance stories are just used to make us feel good, give us hope that we too will find a “rugged, dark, tall, handsome stranger with washboard abs” to come along with his brains and caring nature to sweep us off our feet and take us away to some castle and steal what many call “our most precious gift”, our virginity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stop believing the bollocks, learn about this simple thing called reality and start living life. You know you’ve reached rabid fan girl status (or rabid fan boy status as the case can be) when you are delusional and have the false belief that if you, jump out of or off of various tall buildings/ infrastructures your fictional love (forever and ever and ever because you two are SOULMATES) will appear out of nowhere and stop you from plunging to your doom and breaking numerous bones in your body. Many people would be pleased to know that there are less fans to be afraid and wary of as they display their anti-fad gear proudly, however, I believe fans are simply misguided retards, who, through no fault of their own fell into a fad trap and seem to believe such radical, impossible things like vampires sparkle and are no longer the “scary” creatures you believed them to be when watching movies like Van Helsing or League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. No, because to you, those images of vampires are unrealistic and FALSE, vampires, are and always have been gorgeous creatures with the stealth of panthers, the allure of a sexy perfume and model, the appeal of something you know you shouldn’t have and most importantly these vampires SPARKLE, they are faceted creatures designed to sparkle in the sun not burn as the rest of humanity OBVIOUSLY believes them to do. They do not shirk away from religious icons and as you all know, religion and the Church have been lying to you for all these years. Vampires are capable of living fulfilling, happy lives with their one true soul mates despite THEIR OWN CLAIMS of being dangerous killing machines. Now, really, if you were a machine you are incapable of feeling emotions that is correct yes? Yes. So therefore without emotion there is no love and without emotion there is no love. Love we all know, is the root of soul mate-dom. Something that somehow is managed by the vampires of what is now considered contemporary literature.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9137845729387997858-4444251821419109481?l=kjerstifloss.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kjerstifloss.blogspot.com/feeds/4444251821419109481/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9137845729387997858&amp;postID=4444251821419109481' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9137845729387997858/posts/default/4444251821419109481'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9137845729387997858/posts/default/4444251821419109481'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kjerstifloss.blogspot.com/2009/02/chapter-one-of-reality-bites-back.html' title='Chapter One of Reality bites back'/><author><name>Angel Bright</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07523964590878812393</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0nMiF9hWoaw/SW6pwdvfOgI/AAAAAAAAAB0/1GoDNohlmlc/S220/20145792a2089419496b207137161l.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137845729387997858.post-2920336761030513180</id><published>2009-02-03T20:32:00.000+13:00</published><updated>2009-02-03T20:33:10.277+13:00</updated><title type='text'>Homophobia is the Way</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://nz.youtube.com/watch?v=IVIJs-LamR8"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This video was made by a friend of mine.&lt;br /&gt;Apparently the original, which I never saw (regretfully) was taken down for being offensive.

Like I even run xD) and the others should be handed in too. A lot of admin stuff which is totally lame but it needs to be done. And the funny moment?&lt;br /&gt;When the history teacher gave us notes with half the pages missing. All the odd numbers too. Biased. That’s all I suppose from me.&lt;br /&gt;Oh and Stats is as everyone says it is.

Hopefully. I just hope it will be as good as everyone makes it out to be.&lt;br /&gt;Oh dear, the kitten is staring at me almost glaring but not quite managing it. She is an incredibly lazy cat who I must say isn't the brightest.&lt;br /&gt;I have a female homeroom teacher, the first since year 8. Almost fitting that I started with a female and am ending with a female.&lt;br /&gt;I am slightly disappointed Batmanson is no longer my history teacher (no wonder he tried to get me to do Classics xD) but Miss Walters is nice enough. And with time we will have in jokes with her. And then there's the trip this year =]&lt;br /&gt;I'm keen for that.&lt;br /&gt;But the history class is a lot bigger this year =[&lt;br /&gt;So it won't be as cosy...&lt;br /&gt;Same with Bio. 12 people last year now over 20 if I assume correctly (although that's near impossible to do) but we do have the cool Bio teacher. Easily distracted but full of interesting information. Usually xD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ah. Tomorrow's timetable...&lt;br /&gt;Period 1: Statistics&lt;br /&gt;Period 2: Religious Education&lt;br /&gt;Period 3: Chemistry&lt;br /&gt;Period 4: History&lt;br /&gt;Period 5: Biology&lt;br /&gt;Okay so I'm not so keen on some of these but oh well. Although DAVID is a lucky boy who gets to have a study period last period i.e. he can muck around although that's how I treat RE most days actually, all the time. I can't help it. It's just not that great =[ No PE this year or Rec instead we have Study so yeah. I wouldn't mind Rec.

Depending on whether you are a fundamentalist Christian or normal. They’ve been described to be Satanists who eat human as part of a ritual; they used to be an ancient conquering civilisation of Visigoths, they are now a type of life style, clothing style, and fad. But is this supposedly dangerous sub-culture the reason for global warming? Yes. Yes, it is. “It's the last dance as the walls are crumbling around you...”&lt;br /&gt;This quote shows how ready they are for the apocalypse which is ironically caused by them. It’s the perfect crime, pretend to be paranoid about the so-called end of the world and then destroy the world yourself through the now unpreventable fact of global warming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Global warming is a phenomenon that some claim is natural, whether it is or not. It’s entirely plausible that Goth’s have either a) completely caused this to occur or b) are partially responsible for this occurring. The largeness of this can be seen by the fact that approximately 3, 250 km2 of a shelf in Antarctica had disintegrated over a 35-day period that began on the 31st of January. Amazingly, for the past 12,000 years before that occurred the shelf was stable. The regional temperature has increased 5° C in winter over the past 50 years. This reduces seasonal icepack, disrupts growth of krill and changes conditions on penguin rookeries. This can be attributed to the bleakness and monochromatic statement Goths make with their clothing. It’s black. Black, as we all know, is a great absorber of heat. The Goths absorb the heat then re-emit it back into the earth where it cannot escape due to unnaturally high amounts of greenhouse gases. The heat which cannot escape then melts the polar ice caps where, the total amount of ice that has disappeared so far is almost equal to the size of the state of Connecticut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The multitude of piercings that adorn the faces of Goths, though culturally acceptable have been proven by American scientists to attract lightning thus increasing the amount of lightning strikes in an area, this increased amount of focused heat, power, light increases the temperature of the air around it and the surrounding area leading to small differences in temperature. This added factor to the ever increasing sea level means that in the future some of the pacific islands where many have their homes, vacations, conservation areas will become submerged. The island of Tebua which has been rumoured to be around since creation (according to local legends) has submerged, cemeteries are crumbling into the oceans around the islands. Scout Island in Kiribati has shrunken by a third; it's become more wet in French Polynesia and to the east and north; drier to the west and south, with more frequent droughts, in Kiribati, Fiji and New Caledonia. Also due to the increase of temperature the ocean waters expand, adding to the approximately 30% of water increase from the melting polar ice caps. This is caused by Goths who enjoy preparing for the apocalypse they have undoubtedly caused.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hairspray- not the movie but the actual product used to contain CFC’s- Chlorofluorocarbons. Since the use of CFC’s in aerosols was banned in the late 20th century, the danger of them has lessened but not before their damage had been done. The release of CFC’s into the air has increased the rate of global warming. This can be attributed to the fact that due to the elaborate hair styles of Goths as can be seen, there is a greater need for hairspray to maintain the elaborate look and defy gravity. This leads to a larger consumption of hairspray on the Goth’s behalf, which is now increasing the rate of global warming. Greenhouse gases made up of; carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide trapping heat so it cannot escape. This effect added to the fact that the gothic clothing style (mainly colour- black) which absorbs heat, means the emitted heat is then trapped, melting polar ice caps.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fresh water, and other chemicals that enter the oceans, reduce the salinity of the oceans. This reduces the currents as the dense waters from the arctic sink while the warmer waters from the tropics float creating the ocean currents which are needed. But thanks to the contributions of chemicals on behalf of the Goth’s who find unnatural hair colours more natural than the one they were born with and the ridiculous notion that everyday they should try and defy gravity by sticking their hair with as much hairspray as can fit in a can. Sadly, we’re suffering the effects, probably to their immense happiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ironically the Goth sub culture appeared in the world around the same time as global warming began to take a fuller effect and was noticed. It’s not a coincidence rather an indicator that yes; Goths have contributed to and most likely caused global warming. For it to have become internationally recognised as a sub culture it would have had to exist even before then. Where else did underground Goth come from? If it emerged in the mid to late 80’s as it’s claimed to have maybe it’s just like the recent fad of Emo. Which apparently began in the 80’s but only became a recognised sub-culture since last year, using that as a model then Goth may have existed since the 60’s where scientists believe the effects of global warming began and the causes seen since the beginning of the 21st century after the arrival of a non-existent Y2K bug- a most likely myth stemming from Goth’s desires of doomsday, violence, and the ever-feared apocalypse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obviously despite the fact that Goths ARE people just like us, they caused global warming. The fact that they claimed to be misunderstood does not prove that they are, rather they made the conscious decision to flee so called mainstream society which makes sense if they’re causing global warming good way to escape the effects. Or just pretend to escape them. You can’t deny the truth because that’s lying. Besides who are you going to believe- people who turned their backs on society because they’re misunderstood? Or the facts and pictures of global warming and the effects of presented by scientists who still face society?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now. I do not believe anything I said. But think of how many speeches you have heard on music, smoking, drugs, crime, computer games, binge drinking (alcohol)  etc. Especially old time favourite "Drugs and smoking kill". Why not dare to be different and reach out, even if you don't believe it yourself. Hey, your goal is to persuade and convince not to believe.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9137845729387997858-7598019276206529787?l=kjerstifloss.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kjerstifloss.blogspot.com/feeds/7598019276206529787/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9137845729387997858&amp;postID=7598019276206529787' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9137845729387997858/posts/default/7598019276206529787'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9137845729387997858/posts/default/7598019276206529787'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kjerstifloss.blogspot.com/2009/01/real-cause-of-global-warming.html' title='The real cause of Global Warming'/><author><name>Angel Bright</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07523964590878812393</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0nMiF9hWoaw/SW6pwdvfOgI/AAAAAAAAAB0/1GoDNohlmlc/S220/20145792a2089419496b207137161l.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137845729387997858.post-2834096630484993501</id><published>2009-01-16T16:37:00.005+13:00</published><updated>2009-01-16T17:21:13.553+13:00</updated><title type='text'>Ball '09</title><content type='html'>Well, I emailed the people inquiring about the ball.&lt;br /&gt;Max they can hold is 400.&lt;br /&gt;Sadly... We would exceed it by like 100 people. Maybe. I'm noot sure.&lt;br /&gt;Damn small school that's not small enough.&lt;br /&gt;Haha. Well, this is what they said... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Unfortunately, our largest venue holds a maximum of 400pax so we would be unable to accommodate your numbers of 750pax.&lt;br /&gt;I do hope you find a great venue and have a fabulous time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, to cheer myself up I had an ice cream and am now looking for hairstyles... Or a sweeping fringe that will look a hell of a lot better than the side fringe I currently have. Who knew you had to specifically specific when telling a hairdresser what you want.

Jackson's character repeats. A lot.&lt;br /&gt;I may not be able to do chemistry this year because of said failed paper, Calculus was a filler subject and having failed it the whole year the fact that I most probably just scraped by is pleasantly surprisingly. However, with the others the irony fell into Biology, where, my allegedly &lt;em&gt;"best"&lt;/em&gt; paper (Describe Genetic variation and change) I only got achieved and for the my worst Ecology and Cell structure I got Excellence.&lt;br /&gt;The marking schedule for the idiotic system which is NCEA goes as follows...&lt;br /&gt;A - achieved the standard &lt;br /&gt;M - achieved the standard with merit &lt;br /&gt;E - achieved the standard with excellence   &lt;br /&gt;N - not achieved &lt;br /&gt;SNA - standard not attempted &lt;br /&gt;ABS - absent from examination session &lt;br /&gt;RNA - result not yet available &lt;br /&gt;I think, to be perfectly honest I may be getting more dumb, it's possible.&lt;br /&gt;It seems to be the pattern, those who were academically endowed did well in primary but those people try to cruise through high school and thus fail, appearing more dumb.&lt;br /&gt;Haha.&lt;br /&gt;Or maybe it means I'm lazy and procrastinate too much- both facts are true.&lt;br /&gt;But a way to treat the news of exams is to think that this year is the year that we go hard, turn into super nerds and try hard as hell to pass really well. Just to get into uni, a similar institution to gain a piece of paper that employers in the "real" world seem to so obsessed with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One last note.

Fed up with politicians calling each other childish names, Bill and Ben thought, well, we already have childish names, so let’s put them forward for contention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bill and Ben might be best known for their work on radio and TV, but they feel that politics is the logical next step for them.  Despite their reputation as self-absorbed media show ponies (not helped by the fact that they named their political party after themselves), they feel certain that they can put their own wants and needs aside and focus, if elected, on the good of the nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“I mean sure, the main motivation behind our political aspirations might be the free Air New Zealand flights and our own motorcade to Eden Park on a Friday night, but we think we have quite a lot to offer to the public of New Zealand,” Bill says.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What exactly that offer entails remains a mystery at this stage, as Bill and Ben have yet to announce the official B&amp;B policies. However, they have said that they promise to promise nothing, and that although they realising that by promising no promises they are actually making a promise, that’s the only promise they are going to make. Promise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“It’s easy to make promises in the heat of the election moment, but from what we can tell, it’s even easier to break them once you’re in,” says Ben. “We don’t want to disappoint our loyal public, so we’re not going to set them up for possible heartbreak if we get in and find out that giving everyone free petrol is harder than just sending a really nice letter to BP.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But can they at least tell us what their priority is?  What’s the first thing they’ll do if elected?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“A funnel,” says Bill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We’re putting the party back in political party,” agrees Ben.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seriously. Their logic is almost flawless and to be honest, we don't need politicians who just slag each other off.
