My pet peeves all sort of relate to people's behavior. There are some that relate to different issues but those will be named last. So let us begin.
First off I hate, absolutely detest, when people swallow something really big. Example: when someone has just taken a huge bite out of a burger and they don't want to chew all the way through so they just gulp it down. It makes a disturbing sound and it is hard to type about this because know I am thinking about it. Ok let's move on.
The second pet peeve I have is when people take their finger and begin to push their eyebrows in the opposite way then their natural hair growth. So basically, if they mess them up on purpose. I don't like this because I have an obsession with eyebrows, and if you disrupt the natural flow of your eyebrows...I don't know it just is upsetting for me.
I am getting tired of beginning these sentences with, thirdly, secondly, the first, etc, so I am just going to go with numbers.
3. I hate when rich people complain about not having enough. I mean, come on, their is crap going on out in the world and you are upset about how you don't have the latest technology. Go buy it yourself! That's what I do. Don't have a job? MAKE a job, a.k.a a business. Too hard? Your by yourself, and don't go asking for mommy and daddy's help! ( this one is a little harsh since we are in a recession and the unemployment rate is high, but it's just something that popped into my head. Sorry for any offense)
4. Ok so we talked about people behavior, let's get a little into some issues. LONG LINES. Gosh I hate them so much. I mean I have places to go, people to see. I don't have time to be waiting in a freakishly long line! Especially at lunch, that's the worst. You only have like 30min to eat and HALF of those are spent in line and then 2min are spent getting your stupid ketchup or condiments because there is another line for that! So really you only have 13 MINUTES to eat. 13 MINUTES? That's crazy, preposterous even. I like to have meals that you don't have to rush and can talk with friends. This is why I don't finish my food everyday.
5. This is my last one I promise. ( the last one I'll type down) I dislike when all the teachers have the audacity to give us huge assignments to do by the next day. Are you the only teacher in the world? NO we have THREE, count them THREE, other classes that we need to do. I don't want to be staying up till midnight finishing assignments, I have to get to bed. I need my sleep, or else I can't concentrate in class the next day, and then the homework was for NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! I hate homework assignments you can't take anything from. I know this issue might never change, but at least it's off my chest now.
Ok that is all of my rants for today. Onward to more homework.....AHHHHH!!!

Response to Manufacturing Constent with Links
In the documentary. Manufacturing Consent, Noam Chomsky was very compelling with all the statements he was making. Even if he was not on the mark at all times, he was very confident in what he was saying. In this world, people are more likely to jump on your band wagon if you bring up new issues that you feel devoted to. In other words, if you are confident, people will be more confident in you.
Noam Chomsky exemplified confidence in all of his speeches on why the world is being sheltered on the information that it receives. The news leaves out events and details that are important for a better understanding on the important issues in our society. Most people take the news for what it says and don't question its words or sayings. If people continue to do so, they will develop no mind of our own and take everything for what it is. Just as Noam Chomsky said in his interview, we need to develop our own opinions and immerse ourselves with more knowledge on different topics. To do this we have to look at other sources besides the news and magazines. There are plenty of resources out there for us to read and we just have to acquire them for our own use.*
I don't have to agree with Mr. Chomsky and neither does anyone else. In fact, it is better for me to have my own mind in this matter. For me I feel that the news is covering issues up for us. They are putting blinds over our eyes so that we don't see the darkness. In some ways, I view this to be beneficial. If we don't know about catastrophes, then our minds will be filled with lollipops in rainbows,(hypothetically). On the other hand, we can't ignore the people or places that are in turmoil. People help people and that is how the world is suppose to work. In other words, even though it is good to be blissful and ignorant, this world isn't fair and we need to help make it fairer.
The link below provides more information on why your opinion is important. For the jist of it, Julia Barnard, the author, says that having your own opinion helps you build confidence. She also states that making a blog or some other form of internet writing helps to get your opinions out into the world. This will help you get your insight out and also connect you with different ways to hear other peoples opinions. If you can get your opinion out to the world, you can bring about change. This change could be good or bad, and you can inspire others to take apart in some sort of change as well. If we can get people thinking about different issues in a new ways, then we can start to get people to make more opinions or debates about topics. This may led to bigger and better outcomes, on the optimistic side, and then make our world better. I am not saying that this will happen, but it could and I think we should take a chance on that. Therefore, people say you opinions and make changes in this media covered world!

Origins of My Title Sparkling Pink Sugar
Why did I make "Sparkling Pink Sugar" the title name of my blog? Because it has a special meaning to me. It isn't just some goofy name that I thought of spontaneously. The title has origins.
When I was a little girl I loved to watch television. My favorite shows to watch were cartoons and I would watch them constantly, everyday. My mom grew tired of me wasting my time watching T.V. so she made some time limits. She said that I could only chose one show to watch per day. The options at that time were the new and bright Powerpuff Girls series and the popular yet intriguing Pokemon series. Which one did I choose? Well, since I am a girl and I loved new things, I had to go for Powerpuff Girls. The show was funtastically amazing. The vibrant colors and the misshapen girls were so interesting to me. They would go on these adventures to fight crime and evil. The best of all was that they were made form artificial ingredients. This in turn led to my title.
"Sugar, spice and everything nice these were the ingredients to make the perfect little girls." This was the introduction every time an episode showed. They would show this professor mixing these ingredients into a pot. Then suddenly these girls would appear once he accidentally added chemical X. It was amazing to see the transformation between them being powder to girls and then fight, so I kept on watching the series. Part of my title came from part of the opening introduction; the "sugar" part. Thus, making the last word in my title.
So were did the sparkling pink come from? Well, my favorite color is sparkling white because I love anything that deals with magic and fairy dust. So that were the sparkle came from. The pink is just there because It brings the two words together nicely. There isn't much more to it than that. So know I have an awesome title filled with some of my past memories. You have more information about why I named my blog Sparkling Pink Sugar. Pat yourself of the back for reading you did a good job. Till next time.
