The Day After Tomorrow

High School — Alisa on May 31, 2004 at 1:02 pm

This is as posted on Manna Cabana :

Although I don’t think that storms as big as in The Day After Tomorrow could ever happen, the Bible does predict that storms will become increasingly more, and worse. I do think that global warming is occuring to a certain point, just because of the Second Law of Thermmodynamics (come on you guys, it hasn’t been that long since you’ve been out of school: For every process, there is an overall loss of useful energy and a tendency toward greater disorder. In other words, the universe is slowly “running down”.). Also, the Bible agrees with this in Psalm 102:25-26 In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you will remain; they will wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded., Isiah 51:6a Lift up your eyes to the heavens, look at the earth beneath; the heavens will vanish like smoke, the earth will wear out like a garment…,and Hebrews 1:10-12 He also says, In the beginning you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you will remain; they will wear out like a garment. Like clothing you will change them and they will be discarded..

I don’t think that we can blame Bush for this problem; even though it is what the world likes to do. After all, one man can not pollute the whole world, and neither can he stop the whole world from polluting. Maybe it is a good thing that gas prices are going up, because people are buying and using less gas, so there is less global warming.

Senior Prank

I will let everyone know that I was the one that gave Tommy Fuller the idea to sneak in beach balls to throw around during graduation. He snuck (sneaked?) in 12 beach balls and all of the tortillas that were banned. Acording to Eve, the principal was laughing his head off…

We have finally decided on a new exchange student, Henry Marquis, from Ghana. He will be 18 soon…a bit old, but that’s ok. I am excited, it should be really fun!

"Fahrenheit 9/11"

High School — Alisa on May 17, 2004 at 3:04 pm

I am sure that you have heard about the controversial film, Fahrenheit 9/11 , by now. I have seen one of Moore’s previous films, “Bowling for Columbine” before, and so I know what I can expect from this one. Although his (Moore’s) works are very one-sided, and although I may not be all in favor of what he says, I’m glad that he did what he did. Maybe that will take some of the hate away from the world; maybe it will make Europe realize that most of America is not for the war in Iraq.

Right now I am not proud to be American. I would trade my nationality for a European country anytime. Even Mexico is not hated.

A Change of Ethics?

High School — Alisa on May 17, 2004 at 2:20 pm

Well, look. Here I am at blogspot. A place where I thought that I’d never end up. But now I think that I like it a whole lot better than Xanga (the location of my old blog). I always knew that Blogger was better, but I didn’t like the templates, and I was too lazy to make my own, or find one that I liked. So now I have found a cut background, and here I am. This is awesome.
