Fireworks
I think the 4th of July is awesome. I mean, you're allowed to blow stuff up for an entire week! And my birthday is on the first day that you can set off fireworks so my birthday tends to have both presents and explosives!!! Yeah, this isn't much about fireworks, but my mom's kicking my off, and if you don't like to read it, don't read it! Oh, and please send me ideas on what to blog about.

Birthdays
Well, today's my birthday, SO SEND ME MONEY!!! But really, birthdays are a little weird sometimes when you think about them. Well, I guess not. Well, humans tend to celebrate the past a lot. (Independence Day, birthdays, anniversaries, etc.) I actually got an explanation from a Star Trek episode I watched. So I guess humans tend to celebrate the past because they're celebrating what they've accomplished. Okay, done with one of my first philosophical blog posts. (Sorry about my overuse of well.)

The Terrific Ten
The Terrific Ten is a book that was written by my cousin Faith (interview with her later.) The rest of the cousins have also helped write it. The second book has already been started, but the first one isn't published yet. So here's an excerpt, sort of like a trailer for a book. https://docs.google.com/document/d/10lg8hb9NViVzgpNhv1fr62hdvArYl3DdsUzm458wW1M/edit
Hope you enjoy it.

Camping
This is probably my second personal (relatively) blog post. Last night I went camping at Mormon Island. The night before last we had a big storm so there were a lot of fallen tree branches. It was actually my first time camping a whole night. Well, I had bacon, fire, and big sticks so it was pretty fun. Okay, I'm done.

War
This is something that I wrote awhile back. I think it still applies.
War's stupid. Whenever I start to really think it about it it doesn't make any sense. Now, having a war with aliens that would take over the planet is understandable, because you're doing it for survival. But what's the point of just killing people to get what you want? That's like you're walking down a trail and then a cow walks in your way. So then you just kill the cow and step over it instead of just walking around. And then the cow's owner demands that you pay him for the cow. So you're out all this money when there were simpler ways to get what you want. War's even worse because the countries lose money and human lives are lost when there were simpler ways. When Call of Duty: MW3 went on sale in November, 2011, people spent over $400 million dollars on it during the FIRST 24 HOURS!!! War is viewed by most kids in America as fun and exciting. Kids talk about guns, weapons that kill people, with the admiration that is equaled by little else. I think if war continues like this, it will probably destroy the whole world, or at least civilization as we know it.

How Mining Got Started
I've been wondering how humans started mining for metal and stuff like that. Well, I found this website: http://www.ss.mtu.edu/IA/IAWeb/martfaq.html. From what I can tell, people started mining from rock near the surface and stream beds, then started progressing farther down. That's sort of what my theory was. Well, for the blog status update, I've had almost 300 views in my first two weeks! And with less than 700 for my other blog, which is about a year old, this blog is much more succesful. Let's just hope it stays that way!

Humans Part II
I think I'll write some more things that people do that are weird (see previous post.) This time though I think I'll write things that are stupid that people do, like having a house being destroyed by a hurricane, and then building an identical house in the exact same location. Okay, I thought I would have more examples. I think I'll do more breaking down our common activities. Okay, so one of our main ways of moving long distances is sitting in a big box of metal powered by the explosions of long-dead animals and plants that have been buried beneath the earth. Or we spend hours staring at screens made up of hundreds of little squares that are powered by thousands of things turning either off or on. Yeah, those examples weren't very good. Well, too bad peeps!

Humans Part I (I think)
If you break down what some humans do everyday, sometimes it seems pretty weird. Let's say you're writing on a piece of paper. You're actually holding a piece of a tall plant with something from underground inside and scraping against a piece of dried wood pulp to make little scribbles. Or tennis; you're hitting a round thing that has tree sap in the middle and fuzz on the outside with a thing made out of metal and plastic.

Funny Things In Movies
There are some things that people do in movies that wouldn't help in real life. Like if something heavy is falling right toward you, and you just stand there staring at it. Or if someone asks you about something and you say, "I have no idea what you're talking about." Wouldn't that tell the other person that you were a pretty pathetic liar?

Bacon
Bacon is awesome. Period. Actually exclamation point. Well it's awesome. It's also a sign of a geek (read a few posts ago.) Just ask Thinkgeek. www.thinkgeek.com They have a whole section devoted to bacon. I want the bacon salt. Now go and eat some bacon.

Blog Status Update
At the time of this post's writing, this blog has 157 pageviews. For my other blog, Building Stuff For Beginners, it had 143 views in it's first month, and that's with my mom posting it on Facebook. This blog's had more than that in it's first week, and there's still half a month left. And my mom hasn't even posted it on Facebook. In other words, this blog is doing well. (The status updates won't count as a post for the day, so whenever I post these there will be another post that day too.)
For the past few days I've been working on a horse made out of newspaper. (Beginning horse class.) Basically you make tubes out of newspaper, stuff them with crumpled newspaper, turn them into legs and a body, then glue tissue paper onto them. They can actually look pretty cute. I would post a picture, but I don't want to dig out the camera and take a picture, then upload it, and then struggle with Blogger's pictures. I couldn't really think of anything else to write. (Actually I could, I just want to stretch out the list of things I could blog about.)

Bad Words
I bet the title will probably make my mom worry a bit. Well, I've been wondering, what makes a bad word a bad word? Some bad words don't really mean anything. And how do bad words become bad words? This isn't as long of a post as I thought it would be. Oh well.
Being a Geek
I'm a geek and I'm proud of it! I think it's kind of fun to do geeky stuff, like helping people do something on the computer that only required pressing enter. It's pretty funny to have people pleading for help, then I roll over there, tap enter, and roll back over to my computer. (I once made a buck by doing that.) It's also fun to use words that most kids don't know and to insert them into normal conversation easily. Once I was checking out a book at the library about Search Engine Optimization and when I was walking to the checkout some random guy saw it and said "Wow, you're a smart little fella." Sometimes I just like reading books that a lot of adults haven't read.

A Scientific Theory
This is one of the scientific theories (okay, probably the only one) that I said I would post in the description. I've been thinking about this one for a while now so here it is! (Dramatic music.) So I was thinking that temperature cannot exist in a complete vacuum (no matter at all.) Hot or cold can only be observed in mass, even if it's microscopic. So here's my reasoning: temperature is how fast molecules are moving in an object. Absolute zero (459.67°F) is a theoretical temperature at which there is no molecule movement. The hotter it gets the more rapid the vibrations. So I think if there's no matter there can't be molecule movement. Sorry if that got kind of geeky. What can I say? I'm a geek! (More on that next time.) Scientists have probably known that for a long time, but I just wanted to write this.

Hey everybody!
Hey everybody. First of all, I'll try to post at least three times a week, sometimes more. If I don't, please don't email me angry emails. (Actually, do. I like getting angry emails and I haven't gotten one for a while.) Okay, while I'm writing this my sister is dancing around to the Party Rock Anthem while holding red plastic cups with tissues inside of them that fly everywhere. So, what did I do today? Well, I partly filled a big hole in my backyard with water as part of two science experiments. (Mine had to do with erosion, Lydia's was; How muddy can a person get?) I also went on a 5+ mile long bike ride. I even got to see a baby ground squirrel! It was at my dad's office and we were crouched above a hole where a lot of dirt had been spread around the ground. Then a little ground squirrel climbed out of the hole, saw us, and dropped back in, although I could still his eye. Then he tentatively stuck his head out again. Then we had to go. Okay, I'm done with is probably going to be one of the most boring blog posts in the history of this blog. And Lydia is still dancing crazily. Bye till next time. (Yeah, that was dorky.)

Wow. Over fifty views for this blog in the first five hours and I haven't even posted anything yet! I got to go, but next post coming soon. Thanks for reading!
Hi everybody. This blog is sort of like my older blog which was also name A Kid's View of the World. I deleted it because it was too serious. This one will be more random. It will have everything from scientific theories to my life to me typing random stuff. Some posts will be serious and some will be crazy. Enjoy!
