Cats vs. Dogs

The other day I was thinking about cats and dogs. Why? I can't remember. I think it had to do with me thinking about the constant debate people have over whether cats or dogs are better and I was thinking of my argument and my annoyance at this constant debate. I wanted to find a way to relate each animal in a way that people could understand them better. Or at least how I see them and this is what I decided.

When comparing dogs to humans they are like small children. Why? Well because they always want to play and openly show that. They also tend to show their love to you more openly and their need for you as well.

When comparing cats to humans they are like teenagers. Cats tend to be more independent and ignore you unless they really want something. They also sleep constantly which is a common occurrence for many teens.

So that's my short little comparison. I hope it makes sense but I don't really want to elaborate on it more because I doubt it would really help and would probably just confuse you more. Oh! If you want to hear my honest opinion on the whole cat vs. dog debate let me know.

Stay classy and remember that both animals have good and bad qualities and one may be better for a certain person but not necessarily better as a whole.

Mosquito Cat

Hello everyone! I'm back from vacation and I'm going to give a quick update about stuff...

In my last post I told you that my cat got injured again. Well we took him to the vet and they shaved his stomach so that that could actually see what happened. Well he ended up having two scratches about 4 inches long. We think it came from a fence...no idea how that happened. So they glued him back together (wow that sounds strange...) and then gave him an antibiotic shot because we were leaving for vacation.

Vacation was a lot of fun. We played a TON of minigolf. On average we played 3 or 4 rounds each day. We were kinda disappointed with the souvenir shops because there weren't really any that we were used to only a bunch of bargain beachwear stores. Oh my goodness. They really like the neon colors. It was awesome! I wanted to buy so many of their tank tops because they were bright and pretty and really soft but they always had a print on it that I didn't want. If they didn't have a print they wanted you to put one on it so I only bought one without a print.

They were small but there were a million.

On the last day we came back we went to a Cyprus Garden. It was really nice and we went on a canoe ride thing in a swamp and that was really cool. We saw lots of alligators too. Once the canoe ride was over we just started walking through the garden. It was nice but it would have been better if I hadn't gotten 25+ mosquito bites in an hour. It was awful. Everywhere itched at the same time and I just wanted to jump into a pool to make it stop. I had a ring of mosquito bites around my thighs right below where my shorts ended. Absolutely ridiculous. I also had six on each of my elbows which I think is one of the worst places to get them.



Hopefully the post next week will be a little more interesting for you. I don't know. Stay classy and don't forget to were bug spray when going into a swamp.

Cat Collar Shopping

This is going to be a random post. After my post last week I think a shorter one would be kinda nice. So this is just some of the news that has happened in my life this past week.

Story #1:
So I saw my cat zonked out (that means sleeping hard core if you didn't know that) on my parents bed. So I went to pet him because he was so cute and I felt like petting him. When I get there I notice that a spot on his chest is lacking of some of his fur. Taking a closer look he has two scratches on his chest.

When I went to pet him he woke up and started licking and licking and licking and licking and licking it. I swear he's licking it SO much. Any way we are taking him to the vet because we want to make sure he's okay and we are leaving for vacation tomorrow.

Cutest fight ever :)

Sigh my stupid cat is once again injured and we think its from our neighbors cat. Not entirely sure but that's our best guess.

Story #2:
I went shopping with my friends expecting to get a boat load of clothes. That was a major fail. I didn't get anything and my friends each got one shirt. Total fail and somewhat disappointing for spending all day shopping.

Story #3:
I had graduation. Yes, I did graduate. Anyway not the point. We had to be at the school super early (and then we didn't do anything for an hour and a half...but that's not the point). With the robes we were supposed to wear all the girls got a collar to tape (the tape was like the tape you get for name tags) onto their robe. Well I forgot mine. Oops. Don't worry! That had extra ones and they helped me put it on (they had duct tape though...much more affective).

I think that's pretty much it for my update. I wanted to keep it somewhat short. Besides that though my friend invited me to help her with another project she is doing. It's this blog called Smiles No Matter :) and I think you should check it out because it is pretty awesome. Plus, you can read about my awkward moments in life (if that is any incentive).

Oh yeah. I'm going on vacation so there probably won't be another post next week. Sorry. Have a classy day and don't forget to keep your cat away from your neighbors cat! Sigh, stupid cat. 

Mind Explosion

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Um...are you okay?"

"What? Oh yeah. I'm just studying right now. Well sort of. I can't really focus. There are so many things going on right now."

"Um, do you think maybe you could focus. I kinda really need you to focus right now."

"Um. Maybe. I'll try."

That is the current conversation with my mind on a daily basis right now. What am I talking about? Well there are so many things I need to do right now that I can't seem focus on any one item. I have to study for AP tests which are coming up. I have school in general going on. There are people being annoying. There are my cats that won't leave me alone. And then there is YouTube and Facebook and really just the internet in general.

At the moment I really need to study for AP Biology. I got this review book thing that you read through and it reminds you of all the information you have forgotten. I haven't actually started reading it yet though... I mean I looked at the first section and it just looks so gross! I mean really gross and boring. How the heck am I supposed to focus on reading that stuff?! I start reading and then I think about if I actually have homework in that class or I wonder what fun thing I could make. Instead of writing a super long paragraph of what is going through my mind (which is a lot at the same time) I will just write the thoughts that are going on:

Study, Thirsty, YouTube, New Song, Cat, Cat Video, Focus! Study!, Classical Conditioning, Bored, What Was That Noise, Study, Hungry, Candy? No, Study, Boooooorrrrrreeeeeedddddd, I Can Do This, Study, No I Can't, Be Positive, Understand What You're Reading, It's too haaarrrrdddd!, Don't Be a Wimp!, I'm Not!, Gosh dang it! What was that word? It was in bold print which must means its important, Thirsty, Dying, I need a break, Not Yet!, Ooooh Facebook Notification, No! Study!, Eye's hurt!, Focus, Hmm What Should I Blog About, Oh Hey! I finished the Paragraph...Wait...What was it about?, Ah Man! Now I Have to Read it All Over Again!

Well that's about it. I have nothing important to talk to you about today. Sorry I missed a Friday (I doubt you even noticed) but that's why I'm posting this today. I plan on writing a rather serious blog on Friday...maybe. We'll see how serious it really is. It will be about friendship because recently (actually all semester) I have been extremely annoyed with people and how they interact with their friends. So yeah, if you're interested in that you can read that. 

Speaking of friends my friend told me this so I thought I'd share it with you: YODO. You only die once. So you better make it count. I don't know if that is really all that funny to you but I found it rather humorous. Anyway stay classy and remember to keep you're mind on track, if you can...

P.S. The poll I took ended a while ago. The winner was "stay classy and (something random)" by a whopping two votes and the runner up was "Those are lame..." with one vote. If you missed out you can leave a comment! If you hated all the options tell me what you think I should have used. Basically just leave a comment! I might actually reply (I will "I promise (and when I promise I never EVER break that promise. Ever." ~ Rapunzel from Tangled (This is how my mind works...))).  

Cat Ate Tissue

So this is going to be a rather random post. I have all these short stories and stuff that I think you might enjoy (I don't know maybe you won't). One of stories isn't really a story its more of a "this bothers me" which I guess happens a lot...

Story #1
I don't know if you know this or not but I have two cats. One day my cats were very hyper (this isn't that uncommon for them). I knew this because I could hear them running around upstairs. Eventually I decided I needed to go upstairs to my room, so up the stairs I went. As I stepped onto the very top of the stairs and into the hallway my cat comes running out of the room right next to the stairs and runs right into my leg. I almost fell over! My poor cat seemed dazed at first and then ran into the other room again.

Story #2
I ate a cricket! Okay...it wasn't a plain old cricket it was a chocolate covered cricket. It wasn't that large either, it was less than an inch. Basically it was a little cricket stuck in the middle of a block of chocolate. Why did I eat a cricket? It was for my AP Psychology class! I can't really remember what the point of it was. Probably something to do with culture and the norms of each country or something along that line.

Before I actually ate it you had to get the courage to actually eat it. I know what you're thinking. "How long could that take just put the cricket in your mouth and eat it! I doubt you could even see the cricket!" Well the problem was that a dude next to me had a cricket whose leg was sticking out of the chocolate. So that was a little disturbing. I hadn't (is that a word? It seems so strange...) opened my cricket yet so I was hoping that I would have that same problem. Well when I opened it the first thing I saw was a cricket staring at me. I'm not afraid of crickets or bugs but seeing it staring at me startled me and caused me to drop the cricket. There was a huge crack in my chocolate so you could see the entire body of the cricket. Rather unsettling. Then of course everybody else around the room ate there's so I ate mine and it just tasted like cheap chocolate. It wasn't that crunch, there was a slight crunch but nothing that is terribly unsettling. I was going to take a picture of the chocolate covered cricket but then I couldn't because it startled me.

This is the pin I got. It's rather large...

The whole thing came in this nifty little package along with a pin! So I now have a pin that says "I Ate A Bug Club!" That happened. Anyway, I looked at the package and it had the ingredients on it. I tried to take a picture but you couldn't read them so I will just list them for you now.

• Milk Chocolate
• Salt
• Vanillin
• Many Other ingredients I'm too lazy to type out
• One Oven-Roasted Cricket

Not only did I eat a cricket, I ate an oven-roasted cricket! That must mean I was healthier than those people that eat just a plain old raw cricket right? You know...like almonds. I just find it funny that they put that there was a cricket in it in the instructions (because for some reason I didn't know that was going to be there) and the fact that it was oven-roasted. I wonder if that's why it wasn't very crunchy...

Story #3

When you go to blow your nose you normally grab a tissue. Well, at least I hope you do instead of just using your sleeve. Recently I opened a new box of tissues. You know how a tissue is really two thin pieces stuck together? Well now there is three pieces stuck together. At first I thought I just magically pulled out another one that first time. Nope. They are all like that. It really bugs me because now the tissue is super thick. I don't know if that's good or not but its throwing me off. 

Well that's it for this week. Thanks for reading. Sorry if it was lame or weird or whatever other complaints you might have. Stay classy and don't be afraid to try something new you never know what you can learn from it!

P.S. The poll is going for another two weeks! You should vote before time runs out!
