I just finished my rough draft of my response to an essay entitled "Why Are We Getting So Fat?". Now that's good stuff. =)

"Why are we getting so fat?", eh? I should have written on that rather then globalization.

If you don’t have freedom as a principle, you can never see a reason not to make an exception. There are constantly going to be times when for one reason or another there’s some practical convenience in making an exception.

Fun facts about Chuck Norris:
Newton's Third Law is wrong: Although it states that for each action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, there is no force equal in reaction to a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick.
Chuck Norris can divide by zero.
Chuck Norris CAN believe it's not butter.

Haha, that's right. If you work in fast food and a fat person requests a fatty food, don't give it to them!

I am writing a character sketch for school. Its for the narator of Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart"  Very tricky to write a character sketch for a murderous madman! |

Halfway finished: An editorial piece about REM and why their musics are beneficial to Christians.
Halfway finished: Album reviews of Daniel Lanois and Joseph Arthur.
Just getting started: A school paper on the role of violence in the short fiction of Flannery O'Connor.

I just finished three compositions for Eng Comp. I wrote two summaries, one of "Why We Crave Horror Movies" by Stephen King, and one of "What Makes a Serial Killer?" by La Donna Beaty. Then I wrote a comparison of the two. They were fascinating forays into the cesspool that is the depraved human mind. =)

I am now writing a Cause and Effect essay for Eng Comp. I haven't decided on a topic quite yet, but I'm thinking of doing the causes of the popularity of video games.

Do you mean vg's in general, or specific instances. Like why the wanton killing of GTA3 is fun, and most golf sims aren't?

Do an essay as to why causality is a myth and in reality the chaos theory is the only sustainable way of explaining events in their totality. It's pure BS, of course, but part of the fun of English is writing papers on stuff that's complete crap and getting others to believe it  |

I have been writing a concert report for my music appreciation class. we're supposed to answer certain questions in an essay form (as opposed to filling in the blanks) and I kinda got carried away and ended up with an 820-word paper. I posted it on my xanga site, in the reviews section, if anybody is interested in reading it.

I'm currently working on a new book. Holding off on my current one at 260 pages. This new one is a sequal that takes place thousands of years forward.
