Well today is definitely going to be busy for me.
First, I have to turn in a religion final test. My religion tests are totally crazy. They start me off easy, a simple multiple choice section. Then they do a true/false section, not too bad. THEN BOOM!!! They dump me with a ESSAY. I had to write three essays before, now its just one. But its still hard. Not that I'm a bad writer or anything, I'm just not big on sitting for a long time writing an essay for a test that scares me. However, I scored a 98, 97, and 98 on my past semester tests collectively. So I am pretty confident that I'll do well.
Second, I have PE today. I am glad that I get to see my friends, but like I said I have a religion final to get done.
Finally, its family movie night. the whole family gets together after dinner to watch a show. Usually its a movie, but sometimes we watch TV episodes. This will also intrude on my study/test time. You know what?!?! I could be studying write now?!?! Jeez thanks for keeping me. ;)
I really need to study, talk to you later though

Downton Abbey
Well it's solved!!!
I bought the second season of Downton Abbey. I even watched the first episode, it was pretty good. For all of you who have not seen it, you really should. However, there are some "immoral"scenes. Such as, there is part in which two homosexual men kiss one another. This takes place in the first or second episodes of the first season. And a woman and a man have a sexual moment together in a room. No bare body parts are shown, just kissing on a bed. Other than those things, the show is really good. I hope you get a chance to see it some time.

Downton Abbey
Awwww man!
I just finished the first season of Downton Abbey on Netflix. And guess what?!?! They don't have the second season. By my reckoning I have two options to my dilema; first, I could by the other seasons on my Apple TV; second, I could order them disc by disc. I'm kinda leaning toward buying them. Seasons two and three are a total of $40.00 altogether. Well I'm not too sure, maybe I can get my mom to help buy them.
I'll let you know how it plays out,

Saturdays throughout the ages
Age 12)
On Saturdays when I was twelve I didn't watch too much television, I had friends I could hang out with for the whole day. It was really awesome, I thought that was the best year of my life. I lived in Anchorage, Alaska and I had tons of friends that lived in the same neighborhood. So a typical Saturday was to go outside and play catch with friends or just sit and chat. (at this time I couldn't care less if I played video games or not)
Age 13)
Saturdays when I was 13. Well at that time we were living in the middle of nowhere without a decent internet connection. I did go swimming in a nearby pond in the summer and I did watch movies sometimes. Not any friends living in the neighborhood though, we had to drive into the city to meet with friends in the PE group. Finally, Christmas came and the family got a Wii! I played it every Saturday. On my thirteenth birthday my mom actually let me play the Xbox 360 for the first time in years. However, I was only allowed to play the Xbox on my birthday at that time.
Age 14 - present)
Just a few months before my 14th birthday my mom let me play any video game I wanted for a whole Saturday (at this time I became addicted to the Xbox). About three months after my 14th birthday my mom made the most devastating decision of my entire video game life. I was not allowed to play M games anymore!?!?!?! Earlier in my posts I said I love Halo. So I begged my mom to reconsider her rash decision, but she held fast. Instead I begged her to let me play Halo, she agreed to only one hour. Ever since then I have been playing T and E games with Halo all day Saturday. Until my mom made another devastating decision. I can only play one hour of video games per week period. NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I could not believe my ears. I asked her to repeat what she said, it was true. I could not only not play M games anymore, but I could only play the Ts and Es for 1 HOUR!!!! (at this time I was addicted to playing Call of Duty 3 and Halo 4). So I have been doing this for the last 2 weeks and it has been horrible. Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse. WE ARE NO LONGER ALOWED TO WAATCH SHOWS THAT AREN'T MORALLY EDIFYING!!!! Thats like all of the shows we were used to watching. Now we watch a TV show called Little Men, and Little House on the Prairie, and little this, and little that, and little blah blah blah!!! There was one good thing about all that though I found "Dowton Abbey," this totally cool show is about a rich family living in England in about 1912. Very interesting conflicts and characters. My mom thought it had some moral edification, so I watch it. I am currently on the seventh episode of the first season.
Well as you can see my TV life has been under attack. I raised my white flag and now I must play 1 hour of video games, watch moral movies, and count down the days until I move out and can get my own TV and Xbox.
