Purpose of life

Some days in school, you can learn nothing what so ever or be teach something you already know (most days) and sometimes you can learn somethings total new, so I could say today was my lucky day. R.E. can be a lesson which you could really hate or really love. Today the ever wondered topic came up, What's the Purpose of life.

Our Spidergraphical teacher (crazy about spider diagrams) got us to think as a class of the purpose of life taking things from what we think and from the bible, we cam up with things like :

To live and enjoy it
This could be applied in many different ways, could be a reference to free will, doing what ever ou want to do. Also could be that you have given your life to God and you are living the way you want to and are enjoying it and this is what being a christian should be like.

Life is a test
Sort of like when you take a very important test example, GCSE and A Levels, you don't get to take the test again if you did really badly. In life you come across situations where you only have one chance and if you mess it up; if your lucky you can do it again or get something out of it. As well as a test before you go to heaven,

Carry on Humanity
In the bible in Genesis 1: 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. 28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. (New International Version). So one of the purposes of life is to go and have sex and have a baby. Other whys if humanity didn't continue then population of the world would get smaller and smaller. But another issue comes into this, if we carry on humnaity the we should also be looking after the planet so in the future people would not needed to suffer as bad as us now.

To know God Prepare for heaven.
To be given the chance to know god in day to day life by going to church and in school. A big choice for someone to go to and give there life up for someone but a strong arguement to that is that Jesus, son of God gave this life up to save us from sin, it's the case of do you believe this.

Fair Trade Stall

All last week during break times in my school I have been putting on a Fair Trade stall with a little help. To be FAIR it has been a smashing success selling chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate bars, biscuits and sweets.

But I have realised over the last week how easy it is to spend a whole £5 on sweets. Buying a bag of sweets and about 10 Fair Breaks for 25p which now results in them being a addiction for me. When you have one, you have to have 5 more

News just coming in that as it is Fair Trade FORTNIGHT, so why should we not do it for another week, which means that I best scrape up some money for some more Fair Breaks for now 20p YEAH, saving 5p.

Email: A father was approached by his small son who told him proudly,

"I know what the Bible means!"His father smiled and replied,

"What do you mean, you 'know' what the BibleMeans?The son replied,

"I do know!""Okay," said his father.

"What does the Bible mean?"That's easy, Daddy..." the young boy replied excitedly,

"It stands for 'Basic Information Before Leaving Earth.'

To Hard to Handel

Saturday nights are the best of the week, sit back, kick up your feet and watch them Saturday night programs (but this is what I do every day). The good thing about it is that you get series shows showing so when one goes another one new one comes on.

The latest series to come on our TVs for Saturday is the new game show 'The Colour of Money.' I am a person who likes games shows but trying to watch this one over my mum conversation on the phone (annoying), well all I can say is that is the Best Worst game show ever.

Twenty multi-coloured cash machines to issue a set maximum amount of money between £1000 and £20,000, with no two machines containing the same amount. As the seconds ticks by, the figure displayed increases by £1000

The longer you hold your nerve, the greater the amount available to withdraw. But get too greedy and the machine is locked down, and you get nothing.
Each player has ten chances to withdraw enough money to take them to their target - but play the game carelessly and they'll walk away empty handed

Somethings which really irritating is that when people get me tense by just watch them do something and get themselves in a sticky situation on TV or in Films. It makes me Cringe and this is what the game show is like, after watching the first contestant play,I just couldn't see someone else go through that; or me feeling like I did, so a Xbox is a second choice (NOT COURSEWORK 3rd).

The Count Down Begun

Enjoying the relaxation of doing nothing in the half term holidays and forget to do Coursework (big mistake) I was faced with the reality that I have only 9 school weeks left until exams and finishing high school, 27 lessons left of each subject. It is a big eye opener as Course Work has to be done and revision every night and that my next steps are dependent on my results in my GCSE's (also doesn't help that teachers keep on telling you this ANNOYING)

But whatever I do I will have something to do after school. But not suprising there is a whole load of other things to do around my school stuff and what people always says that there is not enough hours in the day is so true. Some advice from well known experiences;

1. Do not leave things till last minute
2. Always have a backup plan if anything goes wrong (i.e. an Excuss)
3. Plan ahead before tackeling something.

You have most likley heard these things before but in all truth take them on board.

Thoughtless Conversation

We today had went into Cardiff City Centre town for a massive 4 hours shopping. Ending up only going in 5 shops (how I do not know). Then leaving town I said
"This is the most I spent in town before" (Only spending £30)
Mum complaining "I came to town with you and I come out spending money which I didn't want to spend."
Now think, how many people go into town and end up not spending a penny I corrected her.
A simple Solutions to solve this; DON'T GO TO TOWN.

From my previous post I talked about Look a likes and again I found Found myself just a couple years older Spot me in this video.

Is that me on TV

The social Networking Group Facebook can be a complete waste of time (Not Very) or very good (always). From my gossip school St Teilos someone told me that people have created a Facebook group for St Teilos look a likes and some how I appeared to be on there. Now I have told that I look like a few famous faces but one of these was a very big surprise, try and guess which one.

Now hear I have been called Garry Colman from different strokes (Which is true)

Howard from the Halifax Adverts (which is not true, looks more like my brother)

Penfold from Danger Mouse (the best only because I look like a Cartoon Character).

What rubbish.

Today as all around the country people are losing there jobs and with the winter weather there is no grit to grit the icy roads. All in the state of that there is not enough money in the Government (but more likely that they are crap with it). But with the Government there is always money to spend on pointless things.

This here is a Giant Horse or dubbed the "Angel of the South". Looking at the picture it looks as if the horse is small but this is a 164ft sculpture (50m). This stupid sculpture is being located in the north Kent Landscape.

A prancing white horse it is suppose to be (not) is the logo for the county council and has been the symbol of Kent for hundreds of years. Sorry one small detail I felt out was that it will cost 2 million pounds to make

For the importance of the mater. WHAT in the governments mind would they give someone 2 million to build this, only because Kent has not got "Angle of the South" This shows how complex the Government thinks that money is. Some advice for the Government, solve problems which we are facing now, Weather, Jobs, Heating for the elderly and a lot more. And no more utterly pointless things.

Snow Supprises.

With the mounds and mounds of snow we had today, after a while it can get a bit less exciting so I went surfing (Internet) and on the topic of snow I found this in London. This is not a photo shop edited stupid thing. It is a 16ft (5m) sculpture of a polar bear and cub stranded on an iceberg has been pulled along the Thames to raise awareness of climate change. It does exactly what it is meant to, raise the awareness about what we are doing in the this planet. The sculpture was structured to 15 artist spending two months working on it. The sculpture is a promotional campaign for a new digital channel called Eden. The sculpture will be pulled around other countries around the UK. Imagine seeing this outside your window in the morning.
