I Disagree With What Makes A Girl Beautiful...

I disagree almost completely with the author's idea of what makes a girl beautiful. First of all, I prefer cute over beautiful anyway. That's just my preference. Her hair should be like a medium length; somewhere around a couple of inches below the shoulders. I do agree her hair should be blonde, but it has to have that black underneath and near the roots. Not like a bad dye job, but I think you get the point. She should be short at least, like somewhere around 5'5"ish. I don't care what her nose looks like, just as long as it's not one of those pig noses. Not that I have anything against them, because I know you don't CHOOSE what you look like (although nowadays you pretty much can), but I prefer one of those little rounder noses. Her eyes can be any color, because I have brown and I know that's not too exciting so I'm not goin' to be picky about that, although I do love a girl's eyes, especially when she's using them to read your mind. I'm not going to get too detailed on her body (haha) because I'm pretty easy going on that, just as long as they're not overweight (I know that sounds shallow but at least I'm being honest). I, myself, am not overweight and believe in eating healthy and excerising daily so I'd prefer that she'd at least be somewhat slimmer. Her personality should be unique. A fun, very loving girl that treasures and deciphers all those little details about our relationship. She also should have a good head on her shoulders where she's very "down to Earth" in her logic and ideas, but also a little punkish as to have another hidden side to her. Sounds weird, I know, but I have no idea how to explain it. Oh, and one last thing... she has to LOVE music. KEY component!

Blog Topics

So far so good Searcy. The superpower topic was easy to write about and was open-ended. I find these types of topics are easier to write about because you can look at it in so many different ways and perspectives, as opposed to having a specific topic about something we're going to spend hours on during the final exam. In addition to that conflict, if you made an entire class write about a specific topic, then I'm pretty sure that you're going to get thirty of the same response no matter how creative they make it. Everyone knows that thirty of the same thing is pointless, boring, and ridiculously redundant. Let's make the "write" decision here Searcy. :P

example: Celebrities, Music, Cody Isted, Byron Burgart, Cows, Water, Tree, etc.

Also, for this marking phenomenon, I would prefer that you mark it based on what YOU think the individual deserves. Perhaps give them a few comments on they're writing style and sentence structure, but don't mark them on the six-point-scale. That scale represents nothing but how to be the perfect author. Personally, when I find out we're being marked on the scale, I tend to worry about what I'm writing and therefore leading me to mind-blocks and dulled creativity.

Superpower

My superpower of choice would have to be the ability to shoot spaghetti from my fingertips. Now, I bet you're asking: "Chris, why would you want THAT superpower? Wouldn't you want to fly? Or be invincible?". The answer is simple my friends. Ask yourself, would you want to be covered in spaghetti? If I'm on a date with a girl and she's being fairly rude, I could just cover her in spaghetti. Or maybe there's a needy family that would love a delicious spaghetti dinner, in which case I would whip out a couple of platters and fill their stomachs with my healthy delight. In fact, I would want it to be the good spaghetti. Not that healthy, tasteless, whole wheat stuff. That's not spaghetti! Johnny Twelve-grain over here trying to pretend it's delicious. The white spaghetti is perfect, and you can't improve on what's perfect! :)
