Well the ending is all like STRINGS PIANO WOO. That's not really a hook though, haha, I see your point.

I dunno. It's a poppy song. Not gonna be cool or complex really.

I like it, it's corny but what do you expect from a Christmas song?

Audacity? You'd have to synch the video and the sound though. I don't know if you can do that with whatever programs you have.

The beginning of the video makes me flashback to The Scientist a lot. hah.

Wait, why the hell does Vevo prevent it from being seen in like every country that isn't the US? :confused:

This song's good! :D Especially for a Christmas song, yeah at the beginning I was like "mnn this is a wee corny" but all Christmas songs are a little corny, and when the ending part hit I was like :D woo this is pretty good! (This is a big deal for me cuz I don't really like Coldplay as much as I used to... well played, guys. ^-^ I have much higher expectations for LP5 right now.) Pretty new musical direction which is neat. I could like hear Guy playing during some of it, that alone makes the style massively different haha. I liked the pop violins too. Strings r good.

Why do I feel so desolated by the mere thought of starting on my homework?

Nick, what these people are worried about, too, is national security. Of course saving face is a factor in it but the reason the government keeps a bunch of things secret is because people shouldn't know about them. Therefore, releasing over 250000 secrets is going to raise concern...

Oh, you mean like how I was in your mom last night? edit: wait... how did I miss the "the chair" part. -_- WHY DO I SAY THESE THINGS eff my life :blush:

I like how almost everyone has voted for "Tupac is still alive"

wait, WHAT? she went all the way to the place where the band WORKS just to tell them the boat trip sucked? what the fuck??

I can't see anyone in chat at all...

That's probably bullshit. Seriously. That's another thing I was worrying about, a lot of people don't like him and I'm sure they'd be thrilled to get him fired if they could... I guess it is just a rumor after all, I guess it was just unexpected for me >.>

do it

I don't have names except for the girl who apparently claims that she got screwed by him while she was in school then she dropped out who I don't know but apparently is a massive slut anyway (again I don't know but I Facebook creeped her and she does seem kind of slutty haha) and of course if she's a massive slut she's more likely to spread a story like that just for shits and gigs so that's comforting I guess...

Lol. No. But he's really smart and nice and etc so I can see why someone would sleep with him I suppose. Forrealz? Hahaha. Granted I'm still semi-convinced of this situation but this at least is consensual sex, not rape... which girl? and if he did he would be out of there probably, unless she was too scared to tell, etc...

Yeah thanks, you're probably right. It was just so... unexpected because he does have a bunch of students he hangs out with and I've heard people go "URGH Mr. blah blah is SO CREEPY" because of that but I never saw it as that and apparently most of my friends who aren't the rumory type are convinced of it but I guess I can just relax now yay. :nice: I hope so anyway. Hahah. It's just weird to hear that from so many people in one day about someone you thought was fine and normal and etc, you know? I mean actually I can see how he would keep in contact with some of them, like I said he hangs out with a bunch of students which is a little strange but I suppose I shouldn't listen to everyone even though like everybody says it's true, er... yeah. thanks anyway though. :blank:

^oh yeah I mean it isn't like he raped anyone not even according to talk or anythin, I don't logically think there's a danger of him raping me after school or anything :lol: I know that logically but it's still freaking me out, I guess maybe it was a shock to hear in the first place or something. Thanks though. :/ I'm trying to chill out right now :nice:

I know that's what I'm thinking too. But apparently most of the school has known about it for a few years and just since everyone knew nobody really talked about it, there girl that he apparently screwed while she was still in school apparently claimed that "one of them had to go" after that so that was why she dropped out of school, which is obviously such bullshit it makes me wonder if any of that's based in any fact at all but... I dunno. I think it was more like one time he fucked a girl like several months after she was in high school, when she went to college or something, but even that is weird and unnerving for me, so... um. I hope they're rumors. But even my friend who freaking loves him (everyone is like SHE'S NEXT which may be freaking out but she stays after school all the time to help him grade papers and tutor kids and stuff and giggles around him ALLL the time and stuff, and I said she was a good student as a joke today and he went "she IS a good student, she's so MATURE AND RESPONSIBLE" which he says ALL the time and it's like creepy argh I don't know) says that it's true cuz I was like WAT today and everyone told me they'd already heard about it and my school isn't really a super rumors-y place so I'm more inclined to think it's true although maybe inflated by some people. Bottom line is, I'm not for sure convinced but either way it's starting to make me really uncomfortable and I'm getting a little paranoid...

And it's kind of, like... worrying me sort of. So I know this math teacher at my school. He's super good at math and math teaching and shit and I've never been in one of his classes but I'm a geek so we've talked after school a bunch of times about math and school and shit. We lend each other books and I tutor his after-school math group (I tutor for like all the math teachers after school). Like he'll say hi to me in the hallways and stuff and I'll be like "oh cool lol there's Mr. so-and-so, hi". and it was not weird at all until today. Um, apparently he has a history of having sex with his students after they turn 18 and graduate. Like these aren't just rumors, I'm sure rumor inflates some of them but he has a legit history of it, with at least more than one. Like not when they're underage, and apparently usually only when they graduate except he had an affair with one senior a little bit before she dropped out of high school after this weird multi-day affair during a break. And like. I just realized that I probably look like, I don't know. Like I don't want to be on like his Fuck List. Well I'm not saying he has that. but finding this out was fucking weird and awkward because I just realized that over the past year I'm afraid I was dropping like unconscious hints at him or something and... well I'm probably being paranoid, and I don't even know what's really going on. but. it's weird. it's really weird and awkward. I tutored his tutory people today with my friend and when he came over to see what one of the tutees was working on I was like lounging in a chair with my feet on the desk and he just casually tapped me on the shoulder while he was walking past and I was like ";O___O" on the inside which was a little irrational but I'm like freaked out. I think I'm freaking out too much, like I get that this probably sounds WTF to everyone which it totally does to me but apparently all of the couple of ex-students he's had sex with (I don't even know how many it's been really) are consensual and all but... oh fuck it it's just so fucking weird and I don't know what to do. because I DON'T want to be on his Fuck List at all. Like I'm not saying he has one but like, having a relationship with somebody so soon after you were TEACHING them in SCHOOL is just like... I don't know it's weird and creepy and weird and shit. Like I thought I was all liberal about age differences and social differences in sexual relationships but this is freaking me out. so um. I don't know. I guess I'll just avoid him for like the rest of my life. I don't know why I'm talking about it just it's freaking me out even though I know I can probably be fine with just avoiding him for like forever. um. ...;>.> I don't fucking know. I'm freaking out pretty hard about this er yeah. I guess you all will just say I should tell the administration about it and shit which I guess I should but I don't know many details or anything and honestly he won't get fired for sexing EX-students who are over 18, and I don't think he should necessarily be punished or anything, but like, it's still freaking me out cuz I just found out about it and I've been hanging out with him after school in his room and shit and like, omg now it just seems so creepy and lecherous and stuff. even though he probably isn't, or maybe he is, or I don't know. Also he's married and has pretty little kids (2 I think, but one little girl definitely cuz I've met her (off topic but she's actually adorable :blush:)), which makes the whole situation even more :blank: and stuff. um. I don't know. edit: Sorry if this doesn't make much sense, it came out kind of stream-of-conciousy and I don't want to go back and edit it or anything >.<

U2's making a new labum? ew

i like my new signature

:thumbsup:

They're pretty different. You know how AP is kind of hard? IB is like somebody violently nailed 187634 testicles to the AP program to give it massive balls, gave it a physiological addiction to caffiene, gave it a very strong liberal internationalist flavor, added a bunch of pretentiousness as well as to be fair way more depth, and simply laughed in the face of multiple-choice tests where you can memorize a bunch of shallow facts and get by and replaced them with pages-long essays that must be written on demand with depth and understanding and amazing eloquence in order to even pass. Also it teaches you to be elitist (like I am being in this whole paragraph) but usually one who at least knows a bit about what they're talking about but also to "respect other thought methods" ie listen to other elitist people who kind of know what they're doing so it's basically exactly like university-based academia. I'm basing my comparison off 2 AP classes I actually took as an underclassman b t dubs, plus I have a good impression of what AP is like besides that. So I'm not just pulling this out of my ass fyi.
