The perfect song

Within my English class I have been working on a very interesting project. The project was to take a song that you enjoy and pull it apart for as much Figures of Speech as you could. This lead me to the question of what would be the perfect song instead of my favorite as my favorites are either foreign or have no words. In that situation I talked to the parents and they helped point me in the right direction for an awesome song choice. This song was Jeremy by Pearl Jam. A very good song that many people have probably heard before. I was ecstatic to actually have a decent song and I may not actually know my current grade but that won't stop me from looking at how good I did.

In other really cool news chemists all over the world rejoice over the founding of the 117th element of the periodic table. Pretty awesome if you ask me but I would never think that I was so interested in Science and let alone Chemistry. In fact I have been having a lot of fun within my Science class minus all of the math that goes with Physics. I guess you learn a little bit more with each passing day.

What to say, what to say. I really have no clue what to write about half the time so here's the exercise I usually end up doing. Type something like the first sentence at the top and leave it. It allows you to expand on your own thoughts like having a conversation. Kinda like using the words "I like to" and then leaving a large blank afterwards. The editing comes later though but I try to leave my blog minimally edited. Another good tip is try to avoid allowing music or other distractions go with you. Like having a family member staring over your shoulder can slow you down and distract you if you want to talk or explain what you are writing. Finally make sure you think ahead about what you plan on writing about. This way when some kind of interruption does come along you can keep yourself on the straight and narrow.
