Writers block. That's what my problem is. But I can tell you what's been going on recently: We went to durango (another checkmark off my list of things to do!) and dropped my older sister off with my aunt who lives there, and then came back home at around midnight (ugh!) And we've just been recovering ever since. Monday we saw friends for a class, and came home again, and so things have been pretty quiet. As I said, I have massive writer's block, so I don't think I have any philosophical thoughts for you guys, but I will soon, though. Basically, I have been looking forward to teen things: seeing movies, traveling, and doing other things like being able to check everything off on my to-do list for the fall. Let's see, what else? Reading, biking to town, and creating an account and a couple of playlists on Spotify, which has been pretty cool (except when it comes to music choice duels with siblings).

You know one thing I can't understand??? Ever since the Hunger Games movies have come out, people have been doing HG-themed parties, and I heard that they are in the process of creating a theme park!!! I thought that the book's main idea was to dissuade the future generation from creating that society where entertainment is kids killing each other. But people, teens nowadays, think that the entire concept is, I hate to say it, fun. Personally I think that the entire concept of a theme park is terrifying, particularly one where kids are pitted against each other. And if we go any farther, we might end up where ancient Rome went with their entertainment. Some of you guys might be major HG fans, and might get offended, But sometimes, I think that we as a society can take a trend too far when it's considered "cool". But those are just my thoughts on the matter. feel free to comment, and tell me what you want the next post to be about!!!
