I've seen this sooo often. When people say, "anyone can do this, but it takes real skill to do that". Well so what? Just because something is harder to do doesn't make it better. What if the end result is the same? Two people can achieve the same thing. One does it the easy way, the other the hard way. For example, some people might use a computer to create CGI objects to place in a real environment, whereas another would get physical models built. If they both look exactly the same, or even if the CGI object looks better than the physical ones, then why does it matter if one was harder to do? People always make the argument, "Things like this was hard to do back in the old days, nowadays it's all done on a computer". Well, how do they know what it's like to do something on computer. In my experience it's often harder on the computer. If people are really thinking that all good things have to push you until you're near death then we might as well all stop driving cars, stop riding

and eat right handed. I grab for the sink faucet handles with my left and get too much hot water often. I never turn the sink on with my right. I type fine both hands. I grab doorknobs left.
How would you decide what handed I am...many ppl tell me I seem left handed to them. Grandma said I started out left handed. I say I just write with my right hand copying mama and grandma who are righties. My cousin was left handed until she injured her left hand. I didn't know that because we were raised in two different states and only met after 21.
We happened to be discussing hands after both of us fell and hurt our hands two weeks apart.

How can I know if I'm left handed? That is the one I hurt.

I'm 16 and I live in Ontario, Canada and my goal is to eventually move to the US and eventually become an American citizen. I have relatives in NC, I've been there to visit a lot, and I've traveled with my parents all over the eastern US and I really like it. I'm hoping to eventually go to university in the US, and then get a job and become a permanent resident. I've never figured out why I am so attracted to wanting to live there, but I just am, and I even have a small American flag in my room. My biggest interests are American history and politics.

There are two problems with that. The first one is that I'm living in an environment where most people are anti American. I overhear nasty comments about Americans and the US in general, almost every day from kids at school and even adults in stores, malls, etc. Everyone in my classes thinks that it's stupid that I want to move to that "dump to the south". It makes me so mad but I just try to ignore it.

I believe that poeple (and animals too) and rocks began at the same place, where they werent people or rocks. Everything was like a lava.

SO, they were very very HOT. Then, it started to cool down, but before it became cold, some became people, and then the rest cooled down TOTALLY, and they became rocks.

That is why poeple are red inside, because they are still a little hot from the LAVA.
