I know I just posted something about three minutes ago. However, I just logged on to facebook and noticed about six people making a grammar mistakes during a typical facebook fight. Since there is a fair amount of you who are idiots, let me help you out.
First we will begin with a commonly inaccurately used words, or in a more simple phrase-words that people use wrong a lot. At the moment, I am referring to the words "Your" and "You're". They sound the same, I know. It's called a homophone. Now stay with me-I know this is really advanced stuff but I promise that together, we can get through this.
Kay, so the word "Your" is possesive. Possesive as in you own something. An example of when to you this would be:
"Your lack of proper use of grammar, makes me want to hit you."
"Your status looks like you let your five year old brother write it."
"Your mom goes to college."
Simple enough, right? Notice how each your relates to something that you own. A way to use "your" incorrectly would be as followed:
a) "Your dumb."
b) "Your my favorite."
c) "Your not funny, so stop thinking that your so cool."
I have comments for each of this examples.
a) Oh I'm dumb? You don't know how to use the word "your," therefore, that 'diss' you made towards me is irrelevent.
b) Hmmmm. Well thank you, this would have a lot more meaning if you used the right word in this context.
c) I may not be very funny. You know what is though? How you think that sentence was a good comeback. Ouch?
If you are going to get in facebook fights, make sure you look smart. Otherwise, your arguement is invalid.
Now let's move on to "you're". "You're" is a contraction of "you" and "are". To clear the confusion, let me show a few examples of how to use this properly too. Since this is very complicated stuff.
"You're coming with us to the Convention of Idiots, right?"
"You're one of the coolest people I know."
"You're the one that I want."
Notice that if you made "you're" into "you are" the sentence would still make sense.
Now let's practice. Let's see if you can get these three questions right.
1) Wow, well ____ really dumb and I cannot believe you just said that.
---Well children which one do you think fits here? "Your" or "you're"? If you said "your", you're an idiot and probably should just give up now. "You're" is what should go in the blank.
2) I cannot wait to see ______ new house! This is so excitng!
---Which do you think belongs here? If you said "your" Congrats! You're correct!
3) When ______ father gets here, _______ in so much trouble!
---I know, this one is intimidating. Let's start in the first blank. What should go there? I hope you said "your" because in that context "your" would take ownership over 'father'. Now let's go to the second blank, what would make sense there? Good job, "you're" is correct.
I know this is probably an overload. So I will end with this today, but don't fret there will be more grammar lessons to come. You're not a hopeless cause. Just begin with this, and we can continue on to more complex stuff soon, I promise.
For those of you who read this and think that I am rude, suck it up. It may be a little rude but some of you really need help. Why? Because it really does matter. Whether you think so or not.
Congrats! You've completed lesson one. I hope this helps you out.
Good day, idiots. Good day.
Incessant mindless banter about whatever I feel like bantering on about at that moment. Appropriately titled because I highly doubt that a will have many followers of my blogging. So it is basically just a simple chat...with myself. Sigh.

New Years Eve and stuff.
I have come to the conclusion that I am not the best at creating titles/names for partically anything. For example, this post, the name of my blog, any of my playlist-not that you have seen them but trust me they're awkwardly named, poems that I have written, etc. the list of things that I am not good at naming is extensive. I am however, going to name my children well. When the time comes for those things, at least.
So tomorrow is New Years Eve, Wow! <-------What a stupid introductry sentence.
Anywho, I cannot believe that 2011 is over. It went by so fast! For me, this year was a great year. I made a lot of new friends. I feel like that I am a lot happier now and I started making decisions that would benefit me as well and not just my peers and/or commrades. I think I'm pretty much set on what I am going to do with my life outside of high school, and I got a twitter. Hah, the last part of that sentence was sarcastic-getting a twitter account wasn't a highlight of my year..
Tomorrow or I guess about 16 hours from now I am having a party-Yay! So that should be fun, I hope.
Some goals for me next year is to start a YouTube channel and Vlog at least three times a month, stick to excercising-this year I was pretty good at going to the gym but it wasn't very consistent next year that will all change, get a job, and sleep more. So yeah. That's that.
So this is the end of this post.
Au revoir mon amis.

Ranting and stuff.
Do you ever just have one of those days...or maybe even moments when you have about a million thoughts in brain? Yeah, well of course you do. It's sorta inevitable, I suppose. Anywho, today is just one of those days. And it's one of those moments where I just need to log down what I am thinking so potentially a stranger can read it...that somehow sounds sorta vain. Doesn't it? In a weird sort of way.
So first and foremost, I feel like even though no one is really reading this, it's annoying for me to post so many blogs. Is that correct termonalogy? Or would it just be log? Is this whole little section dedicated to my writing a blog? Or is it each individual thing I post? I don't know. Things to wonder about.
Also, I do not enjoy chemistry. I do not enjoy biology. I do not enjoy earth science. I do not enjoy physics. So basically, to sum it up. I HATE SCIENCE CLASSES. They make me miserable. I cannot learn anything in them no matter how hard I try. This sounds so pessimistic. But it is true. I hate science so much I could write a book entitled "1001 Legitiment Reasons That Science Classes Suck Rotten Eggs," And it would be so convincing that science classes would not be required in order to graduate high school. Ahhhhh, sounds fantastic, huh?
You-being a complete and total stranger, most likely- are probably wondering, "Cara, why do you hate science so much? I do not understand." Well that's because I cannot pass a dang friggin' test in my stupid friggin' chemistry dumb honors class. And guess what?! If I don't get my F up to at least a C+ in the next 24 hours I have to quit my friggin' job that I love so friggin' much.
...that sounded sarcastic. I really do LOVE my job. Don't believe me? Look at the post before this one. That'll convince ya. (:
Anyways, so if I don't get my grade up my mum is going to make me quit. If I quit, I will be miserable. Literally. I will go into DEEP depression, and it will be a matter of time before I commit suicide. I know how serious that sounds...it's nothing to joke about. But quitting my job will make me depressed. If I'm depressed I will not be alive very long. Now I don't know how long it will be it could be days or hours or minutes maybe even seconds or possibly years like lots of years. Who knows? All I'm saying is If I quit my job then I will be depressed.
That was a hypothesis.
Fact. Hypothesis is one of the very few science vocabulary words I understand.
I've come to the conclusion, that people probably think I'm a Pessimistic miserable girl who sulks in the corner and makes pretentious, malicous, relatively negative comments about everything. But realistically I am quite positive (for the most part...) and quie happy. I just have certain opinions that can make me sound sorta negative but that's just me.
Hey Cara, just write a novel on the log please, since you don't have a life you have time to spend about 6 years typing something to post that potentially no one is going to see? Okay. I'm going to do that. So Hah!
Yes, my name is Cara and I like to talk to myself while talking to myself on a blog. It's fine.
My generation is messed up. I don't know why it happened or how it happened but somewhere down the line, people my age found it acceptable to tell a teacher to "fu*k off." K, I'm not even directing that towards anyone, I'm just quoting what someone said. And I still feel completely horrible for repeating it. Why in the world do people think it's okay to talk to your elders like that?! It is not okay at all! Nor, is it reasonable or comprehendable. No matter how you slice it, it's not okay.
Also, why does the mass majority of my generation find it suitable to have sex with whomever they feel like "screwing" (such a crude term...sigh.) that day?! If you are 16 yet, you have had sex with 3+ different people. There is something wrong with you! You can mock this all you want. I find it repulsive that so many people have lowered there standards to this level nowadays. For example, the infamous "walk of shames" that are popular this modern day. Why would you want to have sex with a random person you met at a bar/club? That is disgusting! Maybe I'm just old-fashioned though. It's just that I believe that sex is meant to be between two people who really truely love each other. It's a bonding between someone you have very strong feelings towards. Sure, I think it should be saved 'til you are married. But, I also believe that there our particualr circumstances where pre-marital sex is okay. I just think that you should only intercourse with someone you really truly love. I literally cannot stress enough how strongly I feel about this.
Okay, I'm done with the whole "mom" talk now.
Mehhh. I want to get on Pottermore SO bad! Stupid waiting list. Making my life drag on so slowly.
I would really appreciate some sort of chocolate something, yes I would.
My thoughts are progressivelly getting more random. Awesome.
I hate school.
I want to die.
A Very Potter Musical is the greatest thing ever written. Ever.
Even pigs like bacon. Fact.
I'm going to improv a date with a fake boyfriend whom is my friend's friend so she doesn't get face raped when she has to go out to dinner with a creeper.
.................^That sounds weird. It's sorta complex, yet completely brilliant.
Okay. I think I am done.
Good day, my pets.
Shiver. What a creepy way to end things.
Take 2.
Good bye, strangers.
That's better......sorta. It's weird thinking that random people have access to reading this. Comforting to be able to get everything off my chest? Yes. Creepy that anyone who wants to can read this? Very.
