Pope on Miley and Bieber

If Pope were to write a mock epic about Miley Cyrus and Justin Beiber, like most of America, I would find this satire humorous. There is that small group of people that find Miley being expressive and artistic. This group of people might be offended and stand up for the pop star (if you can call her that).
Justin Bieber is a different story. Many of the teenage girls that praise him have now turned the other way. Beiber and his criminal ways have gone too far. From vandalism to assault, Justin has committed many crimes and have gotten out of them. Therefore, the satire of Justin would be enjoyable and the common public would agree with him.

Presentation Review

Before going up to do my presentation, I could already feel the nerves setting in. My knees were weak, arms were heavy, there was vomit on my sweater already, mom's spaghetti. OK, maybe it wasn't just like the famous Eminem song, Lose Yourself, but it sure felt like it.
I am certainly not the best at speeches, especially after watching my presentation on video. A major problem that was noticed is that I tended to rush through things. I just needed to relax and let the words come out of my mouth before trying to say something else. Eye contact was also a problem for me. This problem could have probably been reduced if I just printed or wrote some points down on paper. that way I wouldn't have to turn away from the audience to read off the board. One thing I realized I could do after it was too late, was to connect Goneril and Regan to Joseph Stalin better. It seemed like I jumped right into the pool without letting my body get used to it. If I would have added some humor to my presentation, I would have been more enjoyable. Some nice spongebob videos would have been good (thanks for the laughs Jon.). Other than these main points, I think I got my point across.

Updating my goals......again.

Throughout my highschool life, I've lost count of how many times I have had to make, or update these so called "SMART" goals. To be honest, I don't remember what they were. Which means I get to make yet more goals for myself.
Time is flying faster than what is reasonable and I can barely keep up with it. Spring is just around the corner and with a new season coming, track is on its way too. My usual goals for track is to try to beat a certain time, or beat a certain record; but this year I want my goals to be different. The main goal I have for track is to set an example. This is my senior year, and I am not too bad of a runner, well, I am not too great either; anyways, I am going to have freshman and underclass men looking up to me. I want to set an example for them so they can do their very best at a sport they love. I want to help them find a passion for running just like I have. Running is a long life sport and it doesn't have to stop after high school.
One long term goal I've created is called the Netflix Goal. I plan to watch all episodes and seasons of my favorite shows on Netflix. This goal has no deadline, because only God knows how long this is going to take. This goal takes major preparation and training, some training exercises may include: training my muscles not to cramp after long periods of inactivity, having a strict all popcorn diet, and driving through the intense pain my butt collects after sitting for hours on end. I am willing to do whatever it takes to achieve this goal.
