  1. Lately I've been having a lot of pizza and I really like pizza, so this blog is dedicated to that. My favourite type of pizza is either all dressed or cheese. It's good from domino's, but pizza sources is so good too. Any pizza is good. The sauce really makes it all come together. Tied with some iced tea, this meal is perfection.

    4. I agree with Panagis. All dressed isn't my thing since I'm not a fan of mushrooms or peppers.

  4. After a long debate within my head on what I should write about, I have decided to write about one of my favorite musicians of all time. His name is Lemmy Kilmister.
    Lemmy was born to the name Ian Fraser Kilmister on the 24th of December, 1945. His first work in the music industry came when he was a roadie for Jimi Hendrix’s band. In 1971, he joined a band called Hawkwind, where he sang lead vocals and played bass guitar. However, he was fired from the band in 1975 because of drug possession. Lemmy went on to create one of the most influential heavy-metal bands of all time, Motorhead. The band went on to find great success in the 1980’s through the release of one of their most iconic songs, Ace of Spades. The band’s final album, Bad Magic, was released in 2015.
    Lemmy died due to prostate cancer. The band broke up as a consequence of Lemmy’s death. He was 70 years of age.
    One of the things I like about Lemmy was his bass-playing style. It was not uncommon that he would use various effects, such as heavy distortion, during his performances. He is also iconic for playing chords during many of his songs. While chords are mostly used in Guitar parts, many bass players play chords on occasion.
    My final statement is: RIP Lemmy Kilmister. Thank you for the creation of many great songs.

    1. It's really cool to see that someone tried using guitar techniques on a bass. I really think the bass is extremely underrated. Great blog!

  5. Disclaimer: this blog will contain lots of science and medicine.
    So, my bright mind has decided it wants me to become a doctor. I would love this as biology and science are two of my favourite things ever and I want to help people in this world. Something that I find absolutely fascinating is the animal cell and genetics. The DNA in a cell contains insane amounts of information that can range anywhere from eye colour (blue, brown, etc.) to genetic diseases such as hemochromatosis. I also find mitosis very intriguing because cell reproduction is vital to life but can also be extremely detrimental if said cells keep multiplying (causing cancer). If I could just study biology, genetics and medicine all day at school I would be the happiest person ever (no offence english class, you’re great too). Med school requires a lot of commitment and sacrifice, but I’m willing to make that sacrifice. If for whatever reason, I can’t become a doctor or attend med school, I’d stay in sciences and pursue a career in that field. It is truly a passion of mine and I’m very much looking forward to the medical/scientific journey ahead of me.

  6. One thing I am very passionate about is the NFL and the only that is happening right now is the free agency. It's a block a time where the players who's contracts are over could sign with other teams who want them. It is usually a relatively excited time and this year is definitely no exception. My brother's favorite team, the ravens got 2 pro bowl level players in one day (Mark Ingram and Earl Thomas). And my favorite team, the Steelers, lost their best player in Antonio Brown (on Raiders now), but we got a very good line backer in Mark Barron. Another Highlight from this free agency was watch the Browns going from one of the worst teams of all time 2 years ago to now having one of the best teams. In the last 2 years they have acquired Jarvis Landry, Odell Beckham, Sheldon Richardson, Kareem Hunt, Baker Mayfield and Myles Garrett, who have all been pro bowlers sometime in their career.

  7. AI advancement Part 1:

    I mean developpement is what keeps us alive and heading in a good direction, it also is what makes us evolve. Though we are always surrounded by technologie, I feel as a personal opinion that we should slow down a little the more we get technologically advanced we should think about going back. It is getting scarier the way AI can interact with human beings it is like after a few years or maybe a few decades we will be over run by them. “We have watched with disgust as your technological advancements” (M’baku Black Panther). Technologie is very useful and used a lot in our generations, but somethings are useless such as the foldable phones nobody needs it or things like a gucci bag what is the use. I do think we are getting off topic, but trust me all these things are connected in the same way. Foldable phones are so famous because it is unique and different and that is what people think about and what they only think about, but does anything think about how does it affect your life does it make you better if you have it. I feel like all these times for updating a new phone like Apple and Huawei you shoot out phones just so people will buy it. But we could have just invested all that money on third world countries to help them turn into second world countries and Maybe even help carry the second world countries. WE could probably cause world peace if we don’t fight and help each other. Look how far NASA can get basically without any funding of the government they are 0.49% of the $4.4 trillion from the US. They spend over 600 billions on the military imagine if the military was gone because of world peace and that we can all put the military money maybe over 6 trillion dollars and spend it on helping them the third world countries. Or maybe we can even fund the space programs and make a intergalactic discovery and start colonies. That will be hard, but we can do it will generations of people living there, kind of like the pioneers who used to live here. I mean this AI Artificial intelligence is something that can take over the world because it is basically all the knowledge we have if the AI does go wild like in movies we would all be dead they can adapt very quickly because they can link and hack any servers and get all the information on you.

  8. AI advancement Part 2:

    Sounds crazy, but it is really realistic. I mean the chances of it happening right now is not high, but we should all just bring this reality to people that if we advance to fast we may come through a break through, but we will also get some mistakes that we might of not check and something can go terribly wrong. Things like gucci and school or religious thinking are not going away or are here because of the thinking of the old people and how they thought in the olden days. They think that racism is right and how discrimination is a think that is fine. I mean it has been scientifically proven that it is our free will in which we believe so that if people be racist is because of their environment growing up and the behaviours of their surrounding. Two twins were separated as a scientific experiment, they loved to do the same thing and had the same hobbies, but the only thing that was different from them was their beliefs. The ways they were thought is how they will think for the rest of their lives. This all brings to how other treat others if we didn’t treat others like a lower we wouldn’t have this thing called racism and we would think everyone is equal. Things brings back to technological advancements people want and buy all the new things just because they were born and surrounded by people who buy things and what everything new and fascinating. The more we evolve the more technologically we would want money and the better technologies and they might change their mind. I mean why can’t the people go because before Canada developed a plane that can travel at over 2100 kms per hour we could travel from here to europe in 30 minutes. But it got disbanded because the US and Russia thought that they are following behind so they didn’t want to advance, and to this day that plane has never been brought back.

  9. AI advancement Part 3:

    I told my friend and people have said and some famous people have too Sometimes We Need to Go Backward Before We Can Move Forward, Albert EInstein said it too “Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.” ~Albert Einstein. This means that in order for us to advance sometimes we have to learn from us before. Another point do you wonder sometimes why something have not been invented, I sure have but the thing is that sometimes you think that but it has actually been created by the scientist. We have so many technologie that we could use but we don’t. I have no idea why but it is that, we do know about some like cloning and etc… I heard a podcast about the technological advancements and the things such as space explorations and how the scientist that are making it possible are thinking way further maybe we can make a way to harness the power of radiation and turn that into energy so that we can live on mars. They were even thinking about to take fungus genes and put it in our blood because fungi they survive from the radiation from the sun. They even have all the technology to survive on mars like instant unfoldable shelters and things like that. The weird parts is that they are going to send random people into space. I mean in a few decades or centuries travelling through space is something that anyone can do. I mean maybe we will have to leave our planet because of the AI control. I mean I love to read and study and learn about technology and the space and time continuum. I mean someone else does too Hay Bale. It is a mathematical model that joins space and time together to create something called a continuum. This four-dimensional continuum is known as Minkowski space, the continuum helped cosmology to understand how the universe works on the big level (ex: galaxies) and small level (ex: atoms). But in a relativistic universe, time cannot be separated from the three dimensions of space. “This is because the observed rate at which time passes depends on an object's velocity relative to the observer. Also, the strength of any gravitational field slows the passage of time for an object as seen by an observer outside the field.” ~Wikipedia (I didn’t want to write it into my own words). All in all is there something we have to worry about or is there something that the high authorities are hiding from us we will never know until futur.

  10. I love science in general. Especially when scientists discover cool things. Space is one of my favourite topics to talk about. I love space and the mysteries that it encompasses. So my mom got me a pretty cool book on it but the problem is I really hate books. I just can’t take one and read it by myself. I find it so hard to have free time that reading is always at the bottom of my list if I get bored. So I really feel bad that my mom went out of her way, thought of me and got me a 22$ book for almost nothing. I feel really bad now so I’m currently trying to read to page 5. Wish me good luck😂

  12. Not many things scare me anymore, I've come to terms with my fear of spiders, heights and even death, but if there is one thing that scares me the most its that we have already run out of time. you see, the universe is expanding, or at least the things in the universe are getting farther apart, we've known this for a long time because that is where the big bang theory came from, because that means at one point things were closer together and probably came from a generally centralized location in space that got disturbed and exploded due to that fact that all of the mass in the entire universe was packed into a volume comparable to that of a sugar cube. anyways we know that the universe is expanding, but we also know that the substance called dark matter is accelerating the speed at which the universe is expanding at, and it won't stop, ever, it will get faster and faster until even the fastest thing we can ever create will be capable of moving a fraction of this speed, rendering us unable to catch up. this scares me, because that means that will only be able to exist in our galaxy forever, trapped in this cage. well I'm not just scared because of that but because i also want to know whats next right. like at first the world was basically the east, then we found 2 more continents in the west, then we found out that our planet was just on of many in our solar system, then our solar system was just one of many in our galaxy then our galaxy was just one of many in our universe, and it scares me to know not that we won't find out that our universe is just one of many, but that we will be trapped in it forever. or at least until everything ends and the last stars die out making a void nothingness, or who knows maybe gravity will make everything collapse back in on itself getting smaller and smaller until the entire mass of the universe is compact into something the volume of a sugar cube. look i don't even know what's out there but i don't like the fact that i won't be there to find out, i guess thats what actually scares me but it doesn't matter does it literally nothing anyone does has a lasting impact, doesn't matter who you are you will eventually be forgotten, and if not there won't be anyone left to remember. Everything is finite, including time and I almost had a panic attack thinking about it. The only reason to exist is to keep existing, its coded into our DNA and there is nothing we can do about. Honesty at this point i think the only reason I don't fear death anymore is because its what will console me.

  13. for this blog, I'll be talking about teachers, some are good at teaching and some are bad. There are a few teachers I actually look forward to, on my way to school, they make the day better because they're not the strict ones. But also some subs are really annoying lol sometimes it isn't even us who's disrupting the class. There's this like 1 dark haired russian lady who subbed for our ethics class last year and science class this year and she's just horrible.

  16. For my free blog, I will talk about apple juice. The other day, I went to the depanneur with my friend and he bought juice. He had the choice to either buy apple-grape, orange or apple juice and he chose apple juice. This really frustrated me because he somehow enjoys that putrid drink people call apple juice. I have never been that disappointed in someone during my entire life. I hope I never see anyone buy this juice again.

  17. What scares me the most is dying, I have a huge fear of dying especially not knowing what is beyond the grave. When I die, will I wake up in a room where someone is going to tell me it was all a dream or just a game? I believe that we're all on this planet for a reason. It could literally just be to have one conversation with someone that could change something in the way they think and will make them become president or something. It stresses me out knowing that someday none of us will be here anymore. What is the point of life? and will we find out when we die? Knowing that the earth someday will no longer exist scares me even more because what if I were to have children and then they would just die in the apocalypse. Also, what if the government is really trying to kill us slowly with air pollutants and cancer that they've created in a lab and exposed it to the public and that's why we don't have a cure for it, but we could but the government pays off people who try to find it.

  19. For my free choice blog I'm going to be writing about spring. I'm honestly so done with winter I can't really describe how I feel. Yeah, snow is great and all but it's almost April and there's still tons of snow mounted on the sides of streets. Spring makes me feel happy and I find that there's so much more to do in nice weather rather than cold weather. You can go bike riding, play outdoor sports and just do more activities with your friends and family. I can't wait until everything is green and for there to be no more snow.

  20. Im going to be writing about summer. I honestly cant wait for summer. Hopefully I get my scooter this summer. But the best part if summer to me is going to my cottage. We do a bunch a things like going to the lake and cliff jumping. Its the best time because i can bring my friends with me and we always have a good time. Also i hate the cold.

  23. As a gamer I feel like sharing my thoughts on Fortnite. In my opinion fortnite is a good game. Here is why it has developers that are constantly observing their game trying to make it more entertaining adding new items, balancing them or just taking them out because they are too strong. Not to mention Fortnite is really popular and somehow this free game that has lobbies of a 100 players rarely has hackers, this is quite an accomplishment because there are games that have been out way longer and still struggle to get rid of hackers. In terms of content fortnite is unique for having it's building mechanic that is easily applicable to combat and this mechanic makes the game a lot harder but also allows for an alternative to ease the load of having to aim since both aim and building are important and you can not just be good at one. However I do have a few gripes about the game and one is that it is to popular there are alot of people that just grind out the game and now a days you can get stomped on pretty hard. Continuing with the subject of popularity fortnite is over praised it in comparison to other games just had so much hype which was what led it to be a massive success. Ingame my biggest complaint is the map itself is has to much going is and makes the game a lot more fast pace and you can rotate across half the map in less than half a minute. The reason that this is a problem is that it does not allow for casual gaming it is more suited for competitiveness and with all the weapons, vehicles and building the situation can just become super chaotic and unpleasant.

  24. I will be talking about the colour green. The colour green is marvellous because it is the colour of nature but it is also a symbol of the lemon/lime flavour which is the best in the world. My room is green and it is very zen at night yet it is quite vibrant during the day. It is the colour of leaves which are on tress which create oxygen which makes us live which made us invent the colour green. All this to say that green is the alpha colour and anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong.

  26. So about a month ago my friend Lara told me to start watching this show called “Prison Break”. She had been raving about it for a long time now so I decided to start watching it. After watching the first episode I was alreayd in love. I am absolutely obsessed with this show. I have officially declared it as my favourite show of all time. It’s amazing. My obsession is honestly becoming a problem. I can’t stop talking about it to the point where I bring it up in conversation no matter who I’m talking to. I began watching it maybe a month ago and I’m alreayd almost done season two. Just to justify how intense my binge watching is... the episodes are each 43 minutes long and there are 24 episodes per season. Everything about Prison break is amazing. The main character is extremely attractive, the plot is so interesting, there are so many shocks and surprises.... it’s just great. Anyways to sum things up I LOVE PRISON BREAK AND I RECOMMENT EVERYONE TO START WATCHING IT.

  27. While opening up my computer to access this blog, my screen was once again flooded with pop-ups reminding me about this and that. Hence, I will be talking about computer screen pop-ups. I have come to both despise and appreciate these nagging little guys, but I swear everytime I turn on the computer there it is, “update your computer”, “scan for bugs”. It’s a real inconvenience to have to go out of my way and take the full 15 seconds to ‘x’ out or click ‘remind me later’. These things are relentless and must come to an end. At this rate, I wouldn’t be surprised if my computer suddenly crashed thanks to a virus it got because I’m too lazy to “renew the security software”, or whatever.
