Of course I have some lame prodject that I need to work on that was due Friday, and I haven't started it yet...and it's already late. Anywayz, I still can't understand why the internet is SOOOO wonderful, or why it's such a GREAT research tool, b/c well, everytime i try to research something, I can't find ****. There is of course the choice of the library, but it's a Sunday.....Sooo, if you have any good search sites or historical things that could possibly help me find information on the stupid subject of "Life in Colonial Pennsylvania", I would seriously ***GREATLY*** appreciate it!

the internet is only good for porn and amusing music videos that feature animated fish talking about being free like a dirty slut,.

Montana Ponine · 10-20-2002, 06:18 PM

I also find Google to be particularly helpful. I've never used it to help me with coursework or anything, mind you. I usually just use it for finding pictures of yummy people........

That assignment sounds like it would be fun if you could rewrite the whole deal. It'd be kind of cool making Alice into a real psychopath.

Adele · 10-21-2002, 03:00 PM

Well, I have to rewrite it and make it happy, funny, and non violent. How the **** am I supposed to accomplish that?!? Well, I'm thinking of having that scary, cigar smoking, Caterpillar sneak into Alice's purse, and the stupid thing crawls out into "Alice's mysterious world" I'm going to show humans in a new, crude, and disgusting sort of light. (have u ever studied the whole "Nacerima" thing? Something like that.....). In the end, I think the caterpillar just ate a magic shroom and the whole thing was an hallucination..or something like that. The whole thing will be....STONERIFIC. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can twist "human ways" around, and make them seem real mest up?

Aw geez, then that does suck. I don't know about your writing style, but I can't write anything remotely happy. I have no idea why I can't write sunny and happy stories. I prefer the dark and weird stories.

Haha, me too. Tragedy is the way to go. I remeber in 7th grade we had to pretend we were some character from the middle ages (I don't know why I remeber such stupid things, but forget that I have a unit exam in history the next day..), and every1 chose to be Kings and Princesses who had no worries whatsoever, and they all fell in love, and I chose to be a..errr...what's it called...serf? I think so...Well anywayz, my character lost her parents b/c they ran away from her, had almost enough money to buy her freedom when she was robbed one night, ran away and almost made that whole "if you aren't found after 1 year, you're free" thing, when she became a victim of the "Bubonic Plague" and died...and right be4 that, her family deserted her b/c they didn't want to catch it. It was really "dark". It was awesome man...haha. Hmmm, I remember ppl coming up to me and asking if i was depressed. I was like "wtf? it was story...." Ha, I dunno why I thought of that. I get off subject easily I guess...

That story sounds so cool. It also shows that you have quite an imagination too. You've could've wrote a typical story like everybody else did, but you did something entirely different. That's pretty cool.
