Why? I find myself optimistic due to the fact that I've seen at least my country get out of much worse.

Not economic stuff, more population growth and the continuing destruction of the natural world... makes me sad, but I dont know what anyone can do

*Sorry I dont mean to be depressing!

hello everyone! what's up?

the antitwite: The environment always bounces back. And if you want the truth, the current warming trend is good for it. Warm periods always lead to booms of life, and biodiversity. And in the near future we should develop some tech that will decrease our effect on the world dramatically.

Hopefully. Im doing a bio-conservation course at Uni, and while Im going to work towards helping as much as I can, it can still get very sad sometimes. Its more people's attitudes that is the problem :(

It's people in developing countries that are the problem mostly. In the U.S. We can farm any kind of food we like, we even farm trees for our wood and paper. Other countries seem to be ever pushing into the territories of animals which are rare, or simply too trusting to be near us.

The Mehi couldn't get mene to load all day. This is the first time it would load at all. Is so happy that I have mene back.

I had problems until a couple hours ago or so.

it came back a few hours ago I think, mehi.

Hi, Glass. I see you are in both threads. Lol!! Mine hasn't been working all day. I tried loading it every half hour all day and this is the first time it would load.

That got really annoying this morning. I waited all darn day to get on.

it was working for me when i came back from church, but I had to go to dinner after that and didn't get to post much.

You go to church?

Hello everyone!
Yeah...it was down earlier when I was able to get on...I just got back home recently and so now I am online. :D

Howdy. How was your new years?

Well...last night I was on here, then turned into ABC twenty seconds before the ball dropped and watched that, then i read, then I went to bed. Woke up this morning, ended up going to my grandparents because cousins were in town.
Yours?

Went to a party at a friends house. Got too drunk. Don't remember much. Not ever gonna have more than three drink in a night again. ever.

Oh wow...I wish I could have gotten drunk. Don't really have anything to mix with Finlandia though. :/ And I am not at that point where I can just take vodka shots. It burns!

yeah, glass? my mom makes me. why?

my internet is slow slow, so don't expect me to keep up responding here.

Because I think it's cool. :) What kind of church is it?

I don't go to church...my grandparents and my dad's girlfriend keep on trying to get me to go though. :/

Well some churches are cool, and then there are others. . . I don't go to any, because my brand of religion doesn't quite match up. See I have studied the bible and a lot of what many churches tell you aint in there. :/

Yeah, so many churches have so many different rules and practices even if it is the same denomination. :/

Aye. :/ Hence my problems.

Mhmm.
Then there's also the fact I don't believe in that either.
