  1. Wow! thats alot of things you said. i would like say things little by little. by my responces with each paragraphs of my topic of quote:

     

    "well it takes some certain maturity level in order to understand the importance of school, although i wouldn't say that just because you're a teen, that i completely understand your position. school can be boring to kids who find playing more interesting. while they are different, it doesn't mean the former can't be mixed with the latter. school can be fun too, but not in terms of fooling around. there are ways to make your school life a little more exciting. of course it would take effort in your part and you have to commit to that in order for your school days to be fun."

    Heh, it is hard to make school exiting. but its soo hard.

     

    "with regards to your teachers, well i do agree that teachers can be a little bit of pain, especially if they're too strict. but you know, being strict helps a kid become more disciplined. they make sure that a kid acts properly their age. while i'm not an advocate of this idea, it is more of the easier way, but it does affect the student's personality. of course a teacher need not be a strict one in order for his/her students to follow. there are other ways to train a student and it need not be in a harsh manner."

    Heh, i kinda disagree with "disciplined" part there. my science teacher is VERY VERY strict, people mostly wants to get her mad enough so she can damage a student and she can be fired. anyways, continues...

     

    "kids who sleep are those who aren't interested in a class and most likely share the same sentiment as you when it comes to school--they also find it boring. those kids in detention are those who think of school as somewhere to fool around, and they are put to detention because they needed to be taught a lesson and be straightened out."

    ok, tell me this, is forgetting a "pencil" good enough to get a detention? just wonderin in your eyes.. for me, its a VERY VERY dumb reason to get detention. anyways, last paragraph...

     

    "with regards to bullies and school fights, well most kids are too aggressive these days. they take offense in just a little matter that affect them slightly or even not at all. while i admit that i was a receiving end of spiteful comments and bullying of my peers during highschool, i usually don't fight back, not because i'm a coward, but because i don't have time and energy to waste to such people. these bullies, well, bully others because they think they're great and they like to put down people, and most likely don't have anything better to do with their life. think of it like this, when kids come together and bully others, they think they're better people, but individually they really can't do anything by themselves, that's why they're called bullies.

    it's funny how you can manage to think like that. like what i've mentioned above, the reason why teachers do such is because kids need to be trained, taught. this is because later on in life you're going to need all the stuff you've learned in school and apply it to your everyday life. they don't just give you assignments because they like to make their students suffer, but because it's part of the training. sarcastically speaking, only those who deserve to be in school are those who can survive such training given by teachers, and those who think it's just another suffering, should just stay home."


    looks at "should just stay home". they cant stay home forever here. if he was in school for 180 days, then he can, elsewise, he cane.

     

    secondly, the bullies do think their tough, and you dont want to be a coward, but sometimes being agressive can be effective. like when a teacher is there and the bully punches you in the face. there goes detention for them.

     

    as i explained my part, i can see all you are saying. but it is still difficult to be in school, and thats why i really hate it. i have to give it to you though. good job for explaining a lot. i learned a few things here. including the rest of your post, i still thank you.


  2. A book I've read said that what separates humans from the rest of the living organisms on Earth is their ability to abstract ideas. For example, give a human a map and he'd instantly be able to distinguish that a square with a cross symbolizes a church. A couple of cusped squiggles stand for a body of water. Other primates could also be able to communicate but I think, in the known world, only humans are able to think in terms of symbols.
    Simply put, the alphabet and language makes us humans. By alphabet, I mean any set of predefined symbols, not necessarily part of the English alphabet. By language, I mean any set of combinations of the symbols of an alphabet bearing a predefined meaning (Those who know state machines and computer will probably be able to phrase it better than me)

    I was, at first, though, tempted to say that the ability to use technology makes us human. It is only true to a certain degree for some technologies, like fire and computers, are completely beyond the capability of most, if not all, species. However, some primates, like chimpanzees, use twigs very much in the same way humans use forks to eat. Bees are also able to create very efficient housing, whose strength could probably rival those of our own edifices.

    I also considered if culture makes us human but, as it is, some animals are also capable of inhabiting culture. Bees have their own society and their own culture. A bee from another swarm that tries to enter the wrong colony is immediately killed, on account of its different "scent". Macau monkeys have also taken to washing sweet potatoes in saltwater instead of just eating them right away. Even the majestic whales have their own music culture and the songs of one herd (or school?) can be quite different from that of another of the same specie.

    Again, I do agree with my book that the abstraction of ideas makes us human.


    wow, i never actually though of that. really, all i thought there was a god that made everything (us humans, and the whole galaxy and its items), and thats all i really thought about. heh, really nice there. what book is it called?

  3. ok, here is something that i expirenced that are bad...Internet explorer- is VERY slow, Gets ALOT of pop-ups, Copied off of firefox tabs, gets annoying alot when you arent even on the internet.Firefox - nothing reallyOpera - Never tried, so i know notingSafari - Slow!Avant and crazy browser - Never Tried, so i know nothing of this either.Others (Browsar) - Cant keep track of history (middle)So i would think firefox is the best web browser for me. i will name good things for firefox now =Pfirefox - Fast, Less % change of getting virus, Tabs, Extensions (fireftp), and themes (black japan one, cant really name).now you know why i looove firefox now =D


  4. This is all true. Martin Luther King Was the man that helped us break down "Seperate But Equal". i am just glad we are all together, different race, different religion, and other things. Martin Luther King Was a very good man. i kinda felt bad for him when he was a boy (saw this in a movie that the parents didnt let the white boy play with him when he was small) and he had a hard time living like the whites are above them. but He changed it. We are all equal :P... well i like to give out info of what i know =P


  5. I found it by google.i found it by looking for a free webhoster. byethost was my first onei hate it because it had ads and its descusting ads. anyways, next i founda person that runs "quikyhost". i asked him if i can use it, he said yes, but i didnt like his attitude, so then i quit it and found this. Xisto. it sounded awesome so i looked and here i am now.it was a while until i found this. i just signed up yesterday =D


  6. school is really boring. i dont like it at all!i can name all reasons why i hate school (more then 3!)School is boringTeachers can be strict!All people do there is sleep and then gets detentionSchool can be a big pain when fights go onsome students are darn big and waiting for fights so they can beat up people and be a bullyand ect. i can name more, but i dont wanna.anyone agree? or disagree?

  8. This is gamemaker tutorials made by me only. this is step by step. you will make this through Coding

    First you need to download gamemaker. well the link is https://www.yoyogames.com/

    you DONT have to register to do this tutorial. this tutorial is based on platformer

    anyways:

    #1 Launch Gamemaker.exe
    ________________________________________________________________________________
    I. sprites

    #2a now, you need to make a sprite. so right click on a sprite folder, then press "Add Sprite".

    #2b then "Edit Sprite". double click on the green space. then draw some character. like a ball, ect. just make sure it fits on character position. call it "char"

    #2c then save it. repeat 2a-2c but instead make a sprite that best suits a block. call it "block"

    #2d make sure the block sprite ISNT Transparent
    _________________________________________________________________________________
    II. Objects "char" setting up

    #3a now for the objects. on the object folder, put "Add Object".

    #3b then on the left side, below the name of the objects should be a thing called "<No sprite>".

    #3c next to it should be an arrow highlighting a bar. press it and put the sprite "char". there should be the character you made there. do NOT make another one for the block until tutorial says.
    __________________________________________________________________________________
    III. objects "char" coding

    #4a now, here is the hard part. so look CAREFULLY. anyways, the coding part. find the bar called "Add Event". press it. then press "step". 3 types of steps are there. PRESS "step". now go over to the right. press the tab "controll". then there will be a piece a paper folded with NO green arrow. drag that into the Bigger empty space. now in that script.

    #4b add this to the codeing area

    if place_free(x,y+1){gravity=0.5}else{gravity=0}if vspeed>8{vspeed=8}

    #4c now "Add Event", "keyboard", press <left>, add code D&D, then code this:

    if place_free(x-6,y){x-=6}else{move_contact_solid(180,6)}

    Then "Add Event, "Keyboard", Press <right>, add code D&D, then code this:

    if place_free(x+6,y){x+=6}else{move_contact_solid(0,6)}

    Then "Add Even, "Key Press", Press "<up>", add code D&D, then code this:

    if !place_free(x,y+1){vspeed=-12}.

    name this object "objChar"
    ___________________________________________________________________________
    IV. Block Setup

    Sooo Simple. the simplest one in the whole tutorials. anyways

    #5a. Repeats step 3a-3c but put it block.

    #5b.{new} there will be 2 check boxes. one saying "solid", another saying "visible". check on "solid".

    #5c. Name the object "objBlock". and save it

    ____________________________________________________________________________
    V. Finishing touch (rest of the tutorials)

    ok. READY for the last things? ok, no more numbers, just direct instructions.

    now, go back to ObjChar. "Add event". "Collision", then collide with "objBlock". then add code D&D and type this on the coding area:

    move_contact_solid(direction,12);vspeed=0

    then your done with the objects completly. go to the room folder, right click, "add room", then use the blocks to go straight in a row. then press F5. save the game of course.

    if you go through the walls, then look at 5b VERY closely.
    _____________________________________________________________________________
