ok ok i am not done with this whole swine flu thing cause i just thought of some more facts. out of that 1653 case only 149 people in mexico have died. so know lets look at that percentage -- .000001% of the population. that is nothing. The world is in a wide spread panic over nothing. The case in the US are so significant as well. way less that half of that from that of mexico. Places such as Spain and the UK and other places as well panic at the sight of someone coughing cause, if they have been to Mexico it has to be the SWINE FLU. Only one person in the US has died from the swine flu. yet everyone still makes a big deal about it. ok ok make a big deal i dont mind. BUT here is a fact that isnt being throw out. In the US alone about 36,000 people die PER YEAR from the REGULAR FLU. Where is the world wide spread panic and fear from them. . . . . Thats right it isnt there. this whole thing is made up just to be a big deal by the same reporters, and new cast people. Thats why i see no reason at all to panic or fear going to mexico at all. plus the flu can easily be avoid, just do these INCREDIBLE HARD STEPS
1. wash hands often
2. dont kiss people often
3. and if you shake someones hand, DONT PUT YOUR HAND IN YOUR MOUTH
yes yes i know those are very hard steps to do. the swine flu "HAHA". there is really nothing to worry about

The Swine Flu
everyone today is making a huge deal about this swine flu thing going on. honestly i have to disagree with this. and again this is my opinion on the whole take. i dont think we should worry at all. the swine is supposely just a different strain of the regular flu virus and nothing more. i have talk to my mom and dad about, mainly cause we are about to take a trip to mexico, and they are no worried at all. my dad, who used to live in mexico says that people in mexico "DONT GO TO THE DOCTOR" they just dont. if you happen to be sick you would go to the corner drug store. pick up some medicine and medicate yourself. he says on average people that are 21 have only been to a doctor 4 or 5 times, IN THERE ENTIRE LIFE. that people only go to the doctor when they are really, and i stress REALLY sick. so taking in this information. once the swine flu began most of the that go sick just passed it off a the normal flu and thought nothing of it. that is why people are dieing in mexico. let me futher my opinion. out of the millions, and let me stress MILLIONS of people, only a few 1000s got sick. but ok we will put this in really terms, there are a 1653 case of the swine flu reported. ok lets just make that an even 2000 because there has to be a few case that have no been reported. and the population of mexico is about 109.9 million people. so that give only .00001% of the popualtion has it. See how small that is
Hackers
ever seen on tv or maybe in a movie, where a guy will walk into a cafe or some pubic place. dressed as an average guy with a laptop, and out of no where begin to type furiously on his computer and all of the sudden be in the CIA computer database. well for some reason, one that i can not explain, i have always wanted to be that person. be the person who can do so many things with his computer like hack into government site and do everything of his computer, and the best part NEVER GET CAUGHT. just the things these incredibly intelligent people can do with a simple computer just amazes me. i just this article about a kid, who was able to do all of this. Jonathan James is the next hacker on the list of the top five “black hat” hackers. One of the reasons James is particularly special is because he is the first juvenile to be sent to prison for hacking. James in an anonymous interview done by PBS, he reported that his action weren’t meant to hurt anyone or thing but just to see what he was capable of doing. A couple of the hacks James is most noted for is, hacking into the Department Threat Reduction Agency. The Agency is a branch of the Department of Defense and is in charge of trying to reduce the threat of nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons to the U.S and to its allies. While hacking into the Department he created a backdoor into their severs, allowing him to frequently enter and exit them as he pleases. It also allowed him to view highly confidential emails and also take employee usernames and passwords, giving him almost full access to their information. Another hack James is infamous for, is for cracking into NASA computers. While in NASA computers, James stole software worth approximately 1.7 million dollars. The Department of Justice later stated that the software stolen controlled the living area of the International Space Station, including its temperature, humidity, and all other physical aspects of the station. Once finding out about the problems, NASA was forced to shut down all of its computer systems costing NASA around $41,000. James also later stated, once he was caught, that the code of the software he downloaded was originally a “crappy” code and was in no way worth the 1.7 million dollars that NASA reportedly stated. Even though James had hacked into NASA and the Department Threat Reduction Agency, he did not sever a heavy sentence. He was only banned for the use of the computer for recreational uses and had to sever six month under house arrest. Even though, James was sixteen at the time, if he had been an adult, he could have easily been sentenced to ten years in prison for his intrusions of government property. James still spent six months in prison because he violated his parole. Today, James says he has learned his lesson, and will not do it again, and also plans to start a computer security company. See this right here amazes me.

when boredom takes over
ever have to do an assignment and you are really really bored. well thats kinda how i feel right now. i have a ton of work to get done but i am so bored. there is really nothing interesting about the math homeowork i have or studying for a test or any of the work. and to this day i am still amazed how every little thing distracts me. the phone ring, I HAVE TO ANSWER IT. i get a text message, I HAVE TO TEXT BACK. oh i am a little hungry, well now I HAVE TO GO TO THE KITCHEN AND MAKE MYSELF A WHOLE MEAL, NOT FINISH IT AND THEN SPEND ANOTHER 10 MINUTES PUTTING IT AWAY. it is like a new born dog that is faninated with everything little thing it sees. i dont know i just cant focus on anything. it also doesnt help that i have the tv on and im listening to it. the most boring show on tv could be on and it wouldnt matter, i would still be watchin it cause it would probably be a whole lot more interesting than whatever i was doing. my imagination runs free also when im bored. i just stop and stare out the window and let my imagination take over. i think about losts of things. leaving thi place, and goin to the mall or watchin a movie. or just goin to sleep. i think about the future. where i will be, what will i be doing. just thing about everything. but most of all thing about my girlfriend and what she is doin. since she is a senior in high school i have to wait at home till she gets out. and like everyday i would go and pick her up and hang out for a little bit. but till then i will have to wait and study. at least with this i can right down what ever is in my mind. not even letting a second go by and just writing whatever i am thinking. . . . WOW i am really bored. anyways i think i am goin to take a nap. night
There is alot on my mind
i have to much to think about right now. really i just want to get it all of my chest. i am stressin so much about . . . . . . EVERYTHING. the mainly problem is the whole issuse about should i move or stay here. and that is one of the main things. i know that if i choose on thing the other person is goin to get upset and i dont want that to happen. also whether or not if i am goin to make it on my own here. and I havent even told my parents about it. i dont want to tell them but then again eventually i am goin to have to . another problem i have on my mind is finals. i mean i always do ok on finals but on these finals i need to do really good to maintain a B average. It is always towards the beginning and the end where i do ok in school but just during the middle i tead to slack off and not do anything at all. i need to learn to focus during the whole semester. so now i am stressing over a ton of things i should have done during the semester that i didnt do. i have a ton of work and none of it is done. Another thing i am stressing about is summer school. yet again for the third year in a row i have taken summer school. i hate it cause it is just like taken year long school. i never really get a break and i dont get to relax like a normal kid. so i am stressing about that. another thing i am stressin about is my mom. i have never been good enough for her and it always bothers me and leads to arguements. i hate this me and my mom are always fighting. ofcourse they are big huge fights just arguements about little things here and there. i am a B student and that should be good for them. when i used to live in AZ most of my friends were happy if they got a C but not me. To my mom getting a C is just like Failing the class. oh well. . . . . there is also the issue on that i need to find a job. for the past 2 months i have just been relaxing and not goin anything at all. but now i need to get right down to it and find a job. i dont know if i can though i have always been lucky in the past but this time might be different. damn i have alot to do and so little time to do it all . . .
Part 3 My big problem
after thinking about the problem alot i have finally decided to stay here with my girlfriend. I hope it never happens, but if things go back i can always return to my parents. so know that i have made my desicion the problem is living. i still dont know anyone and i dont want to start asking the few people i know. they arent even friends, more like just people i know at school and talk to them at school. nothing more i dont hangout with them after school. i dont chill with them. I dont even have their number to call or talk to them. and much less even if i did know them i wouldnt want to ask if i could LIVE WITH THEM. that just sounds way to weird. not only that i would have to consider the cost of living added to that. and that too opens up other problem. I DONT HAVE A JOB. . . i think i can easily find one. i have always had good luck with finding job. but then again after reading that book from class Nickeled and Dimed. . . . ya i have lost alot of that hope i had. but i am going to start look. after thinkin about it i think i am goin to stay and find a place to "sleep". cause really that is all i need. i know if i am in a bit of a jam, my parents or my girlfriends parents will offer to help. my girlfriends parents have already offered to let me eat with them every night so that take care of food. and i know i would be able to wash my clothes with them. all i need to worry about is were to sleep. if i can do that i think i might be set. also i am hoping that if i spend alot of time at my girlfriends house with her mom and dad. and get to know them a little better, they might let me stay with them a little sooner. but that is just me HOPING.. . . . . and the worst part of everything is at the end of May is when my parents deicide to leave giving me no time to think it out carefully or plan anything ahead. . . . . . . . . "sigh" i hope i am making the right choice and i make it . . . . . .
Part 2 My big problem
i know the parents of my girlfriend and they know me quite well. my parents know her parents as well, mainly cause we live about 4 houses down from each other. there is no problems between any of us so everything is good. making my desicion much harder. another part of the equation is that once my girlfriends parents move, they have already offered to take me in, and live with them. that is a really good offer. so then again lie the question my parents or my girlfriend. when it is put that way the question seem really bad. ask anyone else and easily the answer would be, YOUR PARENTS OFCOURSE. but see i really love this girl and i really do think she is the one. my love to many may seem childish or stupid i know the truth. that i would do any and everything in my power to always be with her. and the scary part is as much as i love her. i know she loves me more. . . that isnt the only problem i have. if i do choose to stay here with my girlfriend i know that i will need to find a place to stay for the time being, until her parents move. but i dont know anyone. . . i dont have friends here to taken me in. I dont know anyone. and even if i did meet someone right now, i would feel very uncomfortable asking to live with them. and i know there is no way in my right mind i can have an apartment to myself. i just wouldnt make it. even with the help of my parents, and that is if they even choose to help me. . . . i dont know what i am goin to do
