 ** Hilarious piece of work my little ballsy brother (Johnny) created for an in-class writing assignment **

HIS DISCLAIMER:
"Rated IH -- IH: inappropriate humor with some humor inappropriate for adults.  ONLY FOR KIDS."

MAIN STATEMENT:
"I feel we should not write this persuasive essay again cuz we already frickin wrote one (and you already know my writing grade)." 

SUPPORTING PARAGRAPHS:
"We have written 10 paragraphs.  can't we get a rest!  Isn't 10 paragraphs long enough! I have an aching hand and a hurting butt from sitting so long.
I'm bored from writing.  Many students get bored while writing and that's why kids hate school.  Boredom   
You give us enough writing assignments.  Many teachers already know the grades, and you already know I'm going to ace this subject. 
10 Paragraphs is to long.  If you can't stop us from writing this, at least shorten the assignment.  I've tried to write 10 parag. and it took me long enough to finish and now again!  Shorter at least
The longer, the more you learn.  You can learn from one paragraph you idiot!  In our mathbook it helps us learn
Many acutally consider writing excitting!!  You get excited only when read the book, you idiot, not writing it...."
"There is never a limit to writing and some teachers don't kinow the grade.  Yes, the limit starts when you break your wrist from writing

CLOSING PARAGRAPH
You know our grades and" (i don't think he finished)

BACK OF PAPER
[In bubble letters]: "No more writing!"
[Under bubble letters]: "Give me liberty or give me...I don't know. Just give me my rights to stop writing this frickin' idiotic thing, geez! imbusul"

CONSEQUENCE:  He got in trouble.  DUH.

I will never tell him this, but i gotta admire the little rascal.

Hi friends,

So...I am officially done being a 1L (first year)!!!    I don't remember ever feeling so happy...than i did walking out of my very last final of the year...I had THE biggest grin on my face ALL day.   My face hurt. 
After the final, my Criminal Law professor hosted an after the year party for his class at his CRAZY-ass house.  If any of you have ever seen the Justin Timberlake music video, "Cry me a river" - then you will know what I'm talking about. Yups - he owns that house. I felt connected with J.T., my homie, my best friend... he just doesn't know it yet, but I'm ALMOST positive he felt connected to me too.  At any rate, it was fun...there was lots of alcohol, crazy loud music but the best part about it was the PING PONG!! all i did was play ping pong for an hour.  I was having so much fun that i didn't even realize that I must have looked like an asian nerd getting excited about beating my classmates...but man, was i sweating and getting all into it.  School has changed me.

The next highlight of the weekend:  JIMMY EAT WORLD.    I went to the concert with some friends from school (Yem, Soo, Kev...Thanks guys - i had a lot of fun) and i can't say it was the best concert i've ever been to, but it was still pretty damn fun. there were 2 opening bands, in which i don't remember the 1st one (they weren't too good) but the second one was amazing - Taking Back Sunday.  Then Jimmy.  As fun as it was though, I realized that I'm gettin old.  We were in the general admissions area (the pit) where All these high school kids were running around like lil monkeys sweating and jumping around and on top of each other.  As for us, our legs and backs were killing us by the time the concert ended.  Couldn't hang man...just couldn't hang.

But dang - it feels good to be free!! Who wants to play??!!!

Does anyone else have a problem with stage fright,  even if it's only in front of 3 people? I never thought i'd have that big of an issue with nervousness, but today i had to do a practice run for Moot Court (which is similar to what most people would call Mock Trial?), and it's intense, especially when the judges are hounding you with questions and interrupting the arguments you're making. So, most of my responses were...Uhh ...and Well ...."DUH" ( i actually said that once...not like DUH - you judges are MODED..but more like DUH - i'm an idiot!)....SILENCE, SILENCE, SILENCE. ..and to make it worse, i couldn't keep the label of my client right - i was calling him the "petitioner" when he was actually "respondent" and when i referred to the opposing party, i flipped it. AGH... At any rate, Even though it was quite traumatizing, i have to say that it was a REALLY fun experience... BUT - anyone gimme tips on how to calm nerves?  especially when the next time i'm up there, it wont be in front of a panel of "pretend" judges, but will really consist of judges from various courts and practicing lawyers.

 - HiGhLiGhT of the WeeK -

U2 concert baby!! My fantastic sister (Lilyan) bought me tickets, food, paid for parking AND bought me a T-shirt..(THANK YOU!!! ILU ). So, we went to the Staples Center, and Honestly - i was expecting it to be an amazing experience, but it went even beyond that.

The Band was musically unreal, but more than that, they were able to instill an inspiring emotional aspect to the concert that I don't think can be done by anyone else.  - I don't know anyone who could get THOUSANDS of people to sing songs such as "Yaweh" or "40" (Taken from Psalm 40)  and although i know most of the people there didn't know or didn't realize the Apparent christian connotations, The intensity of the songs and people's involvement were amazing. Goose bumps the whole night.

POINT of the STORY: if you go to only ONE concert in your entire life, PLEASE - go see U2. You'll be amazed.

The End.

I ran across this on someone else's xanga...Just thought it'd be interesting, and hopefully an entertaining distraction?...

"If you read this, even if I don't speak to you often, Please post a memory:

It can be anything you want, good or bad...so long as it happened.
Then post this in your xanga, see what people remember about You..."
