Challenge 24

159. "The instructor said,/Go home and write/a page tonight./And let that page come out of you,/Then, it will be true." The second line of this poem by Langston Hughes, "Theme for English B," goes on to ask: "I wonder if it's that simple?" We ask you here to write a truthful page about yourself, beginning where Hughes begins: "I am twenty-two, colored, born in Winston-Salem./I went to school there, then Durham, then here/to this college on the hill above Harlem./I am the only colored student in my class." That is to say, each of us is at a certain stage of life and has a history. Each of us has lived somewhere and gone to school. We each are what we feel and see and hear, as the poem goes on to say. Begin there and see what happens. (University of Chicago)


Yes. <---That is my answer. 
Oh, is my answer irrelevant to the question? That is the question's fault for being unbearably long and your problem because you are the one reading, not me. I'm the one that's writing. Not a tiny bit of conflict for myself for my answer not making any sense to the question. I don't care. I'm an old-enough, independent teenager. I'm tough enough to do what I want to do and stand up for my own rights. As a free human being, I would like to speak up bravely that this question is long and not straightforward and I refuse to answer it. Such sophistication is not acceptable in such an already sophisticated period of my lifetime. 
My girlfriend is bothering me now. I'm doing this blog on my laptop and she wants to check facebook on her laptop, but still she doesn't know her own password because I changed it and only I know it and she is insisting me to type it so she can log on. So I'll just enter the password and come back. But I don't really want to because she is one of the facebook addicts and it's exam time - she has to study, not go on facebook and waste her life. I'm so worried about her. If she fails this exam, she'll get kicked out of the school and will break my heart because I 'll miss her.
And guess what she wrote on facebook?? She wrote that I'm the "cockiest person on earth" after reading my awesome blog. Which is true by the way. I admit it. I'm not like one of those idiots who think themselves better than they actually are.
Right now there are a bunch of teachers talking so loudly and laughing their butts off in the library. If we did that, we would have been shouted at and kicked out already. That is just unfair. Phew. I'm over 300 so I'll stop now.


What I'm ultimately trying to say is, "Will you shut up!?" because this question is so funnily lengthy. (I unified the two vocabularies that were never combined before. It's a representation that I want North and South Korea to unify together just like these words. They might be very different but will still form something meaningful when they come together. And yeah, I don't know what I'm saying.)

Challenge 23

149. Once you have completed your education, would you return to your hometown to begin your adult life? Why or why not? (William and Mary)

My question to this question is, what if you were educated in your own hometown? Hmmm...
Well, I would probably not. I'm not sure if you mean my birthplace or where I lived the longest when you say "hometown," but I won't go back to those small places to begin my awesome-to-be adult life. I want to go to somewhere bigger, and start a whole new life.
I think I'll take a rest now.
I'm so tired. And I am not left with anything more to say about this question. My brain is now empty, as it used up all the contents during the past one week that was full of essays, presentations, and tests. I'm exhausted to the bottom. Winter break is coming up and I'm just so desperately waiting for it. I want to go home and rest. When I complete my education, I'll probably be in a big city, extremely busy, but for right now I just wanna go home. Sleep till twelve everyday, blankly sit on the sofa the whole day and relax. I need some recharge like my iPod that is keep annoying me with the "20% battery remaining" and eventually reduces to a white loading sign spinning in the middle of the dark background, and shuts down completely into a pitch dark emptiness. I'm so tired and hungry. I'm not even fed properly in school. I'll be eating so much at home, whenever I want, but here I'm foodless, and have to eat crappy food only during certain timings. Life sucks. I would have certainly fallen into depression if it wasn't for someone. Someone very special. Now I at least live for something. I come to school for that person.
Anyways, getting back to my answer - no I won't.

Challenge 21

162. If you could invent something, what would it be, and why? (University of Virginia)

Of course a time machine. Well, that's too much work - a time controller maybe? So that I can rewind whenever I want to, and fast forward the boring times. I would be too happy to have a time controller. I really wish I did. I'd make a mistake, rewind, and not not make that mistake yet will learn from the mistake. That's like ... perfect! And in exam times, I'll see the paper, rewind, and learn only the things that were in the paper. Or do something smarter that MY particular brain can't seem to think of right now. And the best is, no one will ever know except for the person using it that the person is so awesome because he can control time and correct his life. My life would be perfect. Literally perfect. I'd say everything I wanted to say (but I missed the chance), and take back everything that made my life worse by saying. I would have so much fun watching people not realize it and rewind like a bunch of silly <insert any insulting word here>.
I'll give a bit of a clue. Who knows if I actually have a time controller? Who knows if I'm controlling time? Who knows if one of us actually has that thing? Maybe.
I really want it badly, so if you have happened to read this and have invented time controller, will you share it with me please? Or just give it to me!!!
And I'm not commenting on whether I'm pretending to not be in possession of time controller for my own safety.

PS: I'm extremely exhausted from writing five of these in a row since the due date is imminent and I have nine more to go, so please excuse any display of insanity in my writings. ;) I appreciate and love you, 'reader.'

Challenge 20

164. Do you believe that your academic record accurately reflects your abilities? Explain.

No freaking way. Not even close. This question is just stupid.
Academics is something that rather blocks out your creativity and who you are, how will it even get close to reflecting our abilities? Because of academics, so many people are missing the chances to find out their true potentials. The educators only give them breathing space for studies, now how exactly are they supposed to bring out what they can do? We can't do sh*t because of this stupid thing.
Any of my friends that are impressed by my drawing can get there by practice. Who knows they might be better than me genetically. However, they are only and forcedly introduced to studies only. Now how will you freaking know what we can actually do if you gave us time and chances, and told us about more things, when you haven't?
For example, Superman is in school. Will academic record accurately reflect who he really is? Can academic record accurately reflect how awesome an actor Johnny Depp is, how awesome a dance Usher is, how awesome Messi is at soccer, how awesome Roger Federer is in tennis, and how awesome Chuck Norris is? Would you have liked Justin Bieber if you merely saw his academic record? Noway in hell you would. It is when you realize how great a person is/their abilities are that you like them. And no one would find that in academics unless academics is one of your skills. Therefore, this question is stupid, and my answer is "ridiculously no."

Challenge 19

163. What is your favorite word, and why? (University of Virginia)

"F**k."
That is my favorite word. It's got a nice ring to it. And It can be used for any situations. It can express almost all emotions such as anger, sadness, disappointment, happiness, excitement, etc. It sounds good and releases your stress, and also can be used for variety of causes. It would have been just perfect if it wasn't inappropriate.
Why do awesome words like this always fall under the category of "swear words?" And why would they make it in the first place if they are going to forbid us to use it? Humans are so f**ked up. Why do they f**king create words if they are not going to let people use it? And why create a f**king word and not use it? And why give f**king consequences when we use it? A human just like you and me made this f**king word, so why decide to make it bad and try to prevent its usage later? If humans only made it, why can't a human change it's meaning or something? I mean changing meaning will just make this word useless now, but we can just be more mature and not take it as badly as we do right now. Don't need to make a big deal out of it. We use it because we f**king need to!!! And whoever uses it for fun is immature and that's because it's not appropriate. Who uses appropriate words for fun? What's the fun in "You smart boy." It's more fun to say "You jackass," isn't it? Humans are so stupid. Yes, I'm an outsider, not a human. I don't f**king get this sh*t. So damn retarded. In our planet, we use whatever word we make because non-of them are really bad in the first place, and even if they are, we would use it for the right cause and be mature enough to tolerate its meaning and usage.
What's the difference between "It's very good," "It's damn good," and "It's fucking good?" The first one is extremely mild. the second one shows some expression that the speaker actually thinks it is good. The last one means it. There is such an important role this word has.
I proved this word's awesomeness and usefulness. This is my favorite word. If you've still got a problem then go f**k yourself. (You see what I did there?)

Challenge 18

165. What confuses you most in life, and why? (University of Virginia)

The fact that we all eventually die, the fact that the world is becoming so retarded, and the fact that we all have to be so busy. Why do we study? Why do we live if we are going to die? Why are we running so fast? Why are we running in such a way? Why is the modern world like "this" but not like "that?" What is the purpose? What is that stupid guy doing, when he tries to act so cool? Why are you so jealous? Why can't people live together? Why discrimination? Why meanness? Why racism? (I mean serious racism that leads to discrimination and killing - I do make racist jokes sometimes for fun) Why killing and murdering? Why b*tching? Why the problem? Everything confuses me.
 I started getting confused when I realized people appreciate according to the ethos, not talent. Ethos might be a skill too, but can easily turn into bullying. For example, the friendless idiot in your class cracks the best joke of the year. No one's going to laugh. Everyone's just going to frown and say that it's lame, not because it's not funny but because of who he is. However, when the popular guy says the lamest sh*t ever, everyone laughs their asses off for their asses' sake. Well, if you suck and make a lame joke like me, then you are just a douche. Starting from this, I observed so many other things that confused the crap out of me. I didn't get why people were acting like assholes. Then I realized much later, that most of the world's population are born as assholes and grown as assholes, not "acting" like assholes. Then time passed, and I woke up one day just to find myself also becoming an asshole. I guess my instincts realized that was the only way to survive in the world of assholes. Then again, people started maturing up and concentrating more on studies than being like little b*tches. Now, the deal was to dominate the class; to become the "cool" guy that everyone respects. Trends always changed and still does. I got so damn confused, I didn't know what to do. I was lost. I felt so bad. I didn't know what the hell was going on. It disappointed me too much. From then, I lost all my energy and will power. I was confused and exhausted with this world. I started hating everyone in the entire school. I started being alone and separating myself. Then I again joined the world after a year of such depression. And still I'm confused, but now I have learned to live with this stupid sh*t of life.    :)

SUMMARY:
"Life" confuses me the most in life.

Challenge 17

180. If you could ban anything in the world, what would it be and why?

I would definitely, and without hesitation, ban drinking and smoking. It is everywhere - it's very legal and accessible. It is now so easy to spot people squatting down and sucking on all that harmful substance into their body with a bitter frown. And as I walk past them, the smell of burnt poison penetrates right through my nose and disgusts me.
I hate it.
It is totally unnecessary. People are spending money to kill themselves. To get themselves sick and to suffer an unbearable torture in the future. How will they feel when their body is destroyed and they are lying on the hospital bed all helpless and in pain, and have to take surgeries, medication, etc that they will certainly not like very much? Are they aware? Maybe, maybe not.
It just doesn't make a single sense to me. It makes me angry. There are so many other things to do in life! Why spend so much of your life trying to end it? It is NOT COOL. And it is not funny either. Just stop. It's disgusting. And disgustingly irresponsible.
And I want to blame the people who advertise it, make it look cool, and sell it. A bunch of unconscious, heartless, and stupid animals. They deserve to take in all that into their body at once and dissolve and die in the chemical. They are murderers. They need to go f*** themselves if they want to, but they shouldn't spread it to other people and harm them too. That's is not right. I abhor you people. If I see you face to face I'll rip your face off and stuff it into your own mouths. You have done similar destruction to countless other people.
So many of my uncles are drinkers and trust me they cause a lot of trouble. A person who I love so much smokes. And that breaks my heart. I really hope she stops one day. Please stop. I don't want you to waste money on such stupid stuff and also harm your health. It is bad for health.
I really wish I could ban smoking and drinking, and get rid of it forever.
