5 Ways to Look at Winter

1.
The seasons go on and on
but among all,
winter is pure beauty.

2.
Hockey and rink are one.
Hockey, rink and winter
are one.

3.
Hot chocolate in hand
we slay the monster of winter
but we don't try too hard.

4.
Shakespear wrote in thy frosty air,
breath of he curls behore thy.
A sprinkle of winter falls
in hair of he.

5.
It was evening all afternoon.
It snowed and it will snow.
But for now that snow
is no more.

Review - Acer Netbook

Need a very portable, stylish and inexpensive laptop? Then, the Acer Netbook is the laptop for you! The screen is ultra thin, 10.1" and LED powered. The whole laptop is only 5 lbs. It comes with Office 2010 Starter, so you can use Word and Excel.
The Acer Netbook comes in 5 stylish colours depending on your tastes: light blue, red, black, grey and white!
Costco had a really great permanant deal on this laptop: 279,99$. What a great buy!!

This laptop is really great for my age (14)  because it does the trick. I don't really need a big expensive laptop because I have no obligation for that. If I were an adult working constantly on my laptop all day for work, I would probably want a bigger unit.
Just a small impediment: I am a very original person, so I love the fact that the Netbook comes in different colours, so I own a light blue one. The only thing is that the laptop only has Windows 7 Starter, which means that you can't change the desktop back ground. You can purchase a full version of Windows 7 for 90$.

It is also very easy to earn enough money for this laptop for it is only 279,99$, which is what we all like to call a great deal.

Issue Piece - Answering with a Question

Draft #1

"So what's wrong?"
"What do you think is wrong?"
Well, if I knew what was wrong, I wouldn't have asked! Like, really. Do you really think I go around asking people a question and then say: "Oh ya! I already know the answer to that! What was I thinking?"

Now, let's elaborate that idea.
"So what's wrong?"
"What do you think is wrong?"
"I dunno. I just want to understand, ya know?"
"What is there to understand?"
Uh, your problem, maybe??!?? The other person's acting all down and sad, then they claim that NOTHING is wrong. Hmmmmmm...

It really bugs me when people answer my question with a question because, well, I asked a question for a reason! Not to add even MORE mystery to the situation!
The funny part is that when you answer the person with a question, THEY get all pissed.

Its even more frustrating when your having a very serious conversation with the other person where you NEED to have all the details or else. Then, they answer you with a question. And you haven't gotten anywhere. ARRRRRRGH!

And that's the worse part: Not moving forward.
