Evil Questions... ?

Heyy (:
So, for Family Home Evening tonight my family played Risk, a game in which the objective is to take over the world. My little brother was boasting about how he was totally going to take over the world and win. So, I asked him WHY he wanted to take over the world. He tells me it's because "if you take over the world you would get a lot of power."
So I started arguing with him, explaining why I think it wouldn't be worth it to take over the world. He didn't get it... but he's only six. So, I wanted to see if my friends got it... here is the argument I gave my brother;


I wouldn't want to take over the world because it would be a huge waste of resources. I would kill off all of my minions just by taking over the world, and then I would have to go through the whole process of killing off everyone who had enough power to speak out against me and incite rebellion against me.
Then, I would have to go to all of the trouble to actually RULE the world. I could delegate, and let my minions do the work on camera, but I would still have to give my minions the orders, as to be perfect minions they wouldn't be able to think for themselves, so basically I would still have to go through all the work.
And, I would always be living in fear, because to take over the world I would have to become a tyrant, and tyrants always live in fear, because they always have to be watching out in case someone comes along who will rebel against them and take the world from them.
And for all this work, all I would get is a small feeling of power. Ya, I would get money and I would be in charge, but being in charge of such a large amount of people would suck.
I would have to listen to all of their petty complaints, because to insure that you stay in power, the people have to loose their ability to think for themselves. I would have to make sure that everyone has enough food, a nice place to live, clothes, and enough money that they don't always come begging to me. Plus, I would have to either learn every language in the world, or come up with a new one and teach it to everyone, so that I would be able to communicate with my subjects.
So it's not like taking over the world is something that you can do over the weekend. It would require lots of study, effort, and a real desire. Not to mention a gazillion minions!
So, to me, taking over the world isn't worth it. I don't get enough out of it to warrant all the work it would require.
And that is why I would not want to take over the world.


So, comments? Why would you want to take over the world, or, if not, why? Thankee :D

Writing....

Heyy (:
I'm kinda tired... and also feeling a bit hyper, so this post might not make much sense, but I'm ok w/ it... so u should b 2!!! hahaha (;
Anyways, as most of u know, I'm writing this story about this girl who's dad is really really strict, and he wants them to move from TN to AZ, and she is REALLY pissed about it. She doesn't want to leave her boyfriend and all her friends behind, and so their trying to come up w/ plans to stop them from moving.
And i'm kinda stuck w/ it.... cuz I'm not entirely sure what I want her to do.... part of the reason their moving is cuz of money problems, so she's going to get a job to like help them out, but itz going to backfire pretty bad... and after that I have nooo clue. I was talking to one of my friends, cuz i was kinda freaking out, like omgsh what am I gonna do!? so i was asking him for help, and i think i might use one of his ideas.... but i'm just not sure!!!! this is annoying me.... :P
I could really use some help here.... please?! hahah :P
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh don't really know what to say now... i was just randomly typing cuz i can't figure out what else to write, n i haven't written on her in 4eva, and i need to vent to somebody... even if this isn't really somebody... oh well!!!
I g2g now, my mom wants her computer back... i wonder if daddy is awake yet.... i need to talk to him.... ok so ya bye!!!!

drama.... *sigh*

Heyy (:
so, this past month has been pretty crazy, if you couldn't tell... no computer, crazy field trips, awesome party's, random phone calls, Shakespeare, emails, and LOTS of drama....
today I'm focusing on the drama part... so, I'm LDS, or 'Mormon' and as part of that I've chosen to follow the guidelines the prophets and apostles have given us in the pamphlet For the Strength of Youth, part of which state that we shouldn't be dating till we are sixteen, and even then we should go on group and/or casual dates. In my family, we don't even get the option of casual dates until we are ready to get married, but we can do group dates if we choose when we are sixteen (:
So, the reason I'm bringing this up is because lately there has been a lot of 'drama' involving guys going on in my life... I'm not going to go into details because they aren't mine, but suffice it to say that one of my friends 'likes' another one of my friends... and she decided to... approach... him about it in the form of a letter-poem thingy... and... well, lets just say that it was really awkward.
So, my best friend and I were discussing this and the blog post our friends mother made about it over the phone one night,  and it made me start thinking about the crushes and general 'sillyness' (as sis. keppner says ;) that go on in our lives...
Like most teenage girls, I've had crushes on guys, and still have quite a few now *blush* (; but I've never been like most girls, wanting to know if the guy they like likes them back, or flirting constantly with cute guys and all of that... I think that I've never really wanted to know if the guy I liked liked me back mostly because the strongest crushes I've had were for fictional characters... XD and then I was always really, really shy, and so the idea of actually going up to someone and asking them if they liked me was utterly terrifying.
And the whole flirting thing... well, that has always seemed really stupid to me... I remember when I was little (er... :P), laughing with my friends when the older boys and girls tried to impress each other, and thinking "that's so stupid! why would you try and be someone else to impress boys and/or girls? If someone liked me I would want it to be because they liked ME, not because they liked someone else I was pretending to be... because then they wouldn't be liking me, they would be liking that somebody else." And that's still pretty much what I think (:
However, most girls, and a lot of my friends, do want people to like them. I've noticed that a lot, that most people really care about what other people think about them, and are always trying to be something different to make people like them. One of my cousins is kind of like that, where she really cares what the people think of her,  and yet she try's to act tough, like she doesn't actually care about what they think of her. So many of my friends are insecure, trying to find out who they are and what they should do with their lives, and the things they see and hear in school and in their everyday lives are making a huge influence on them, and not always for the better...
I guess what I've been trying to say through this whole long blog post is that I don't really see why people would willingly put themselves through all this drama and heartache, and for what? acceptance?
 *sigh*
I guess it's just hard for me to understand all this because I know who I am. I know that I am a precious daughter of God, and that he loves me, and so I don't really care what other people think of me, because in the end it really doesn't matter. I mean, yes, there are some people who I admire and who's opinions matter to me, but most people's opinions just really don't matter to me. So it's a bit difficult for me to understand all these people who don't know what I know, and who crave that 'acceptance' that comes from relationships.

Going back and reading through this, it sounds supspciously like a better writen version of my journal...
Well, since my computer is broken and I can no longer write in my journal, this is going to have to sufice as the dumping place for my thoughs. thanks for suffering through this! I think I understand all of this a little bit better now, hopefully this helped you as much as it did me, and maybe even a little bit more. (;
