A: ”Stop, you’re giving me a headache!”
Q: Where do you find a Christmas Tree in the summer?

Fair Trade Chocolate! 01/08/2010

Chocolate. So tasty, and used for so much.
How does chocolate make you feel? Happy, right? And that’s all you care about when you go to eat a Hershey’s bar, or a bag of M&M’s. No problem, there isn’t much more to it, right? Wrong. Have you ever thought about who makes the chocolate you’re eating? Probably not. They should be happy making your chocolate. But unfortunately, some aren’t.
Africa produces nearly 70% of our world’s chocolate. But did you know there is such thing as Fair and Unfair trade? That’s right. See this picture below.
That’s a kid (Just like you and me) working on a Cocoa Farm (That’s where our chocolate comes from). Unfair trade chocolate farms, they abuse their child workers! Poor children there are starved, exhausted, beaten. Their familes pay between $50-$100 for their kids to work on cocoa farms. They come back with little money after hours straight of dangerous, thirsty work. And for what? To be beaten? Accidentally injured on the job? To not even taste the chocolate they make? Not allowed to go to school, the doctor or even have any play time? That’s truly unfair!
Unfair trade chocolate farms also are bad for the enviroment. They destroy LOTS of forest and use harmful chemicals that hurt animals, plants and even the cocoa farmers.
However, there is a brighter side to the situation.
See that kid? He’s working on a fair trade cocoa farm. The workers there may be children, but they are not abused. They are allowed to eat, sleep, play and even go to school. They are payed a decent price for their work. Plus, no harmful chemicals are used and less forest is destoyed.
Did you know that Nestle, Hershey’s and Mars chocolate companies do NOT have fair trade chocolate? That’s awful! Contact Nestle with your opinion. Call CEO Joe Weller at 1-800-225-2270.
OR, send a hand-written letter to: Nestle USA, Joe Weller, Chairman and CEO, 800 N. Brand Blvd; Glendale, CA 91203.

Also, thanks for coming to the 1 Year Anniversery party! That includes Brett, Luvurlab, Kooki and Razor. Applause for those people! Now, in case you were at the party, you might wanna know who won the contest. The winner is…
Razoredge!
There were 40 meatballs in the jar and Razor guessed 55. Good try Brett and Luvurlab. Razor, you will receive your trophy and an author’s spot invite soon. I will be adding more authors, some of which signed up at the employment office. Well, see you all later!

Well, the title never lies. I really don’t have to go again, but since I am such an interesting person AND several more people tagged me, I will go. I actually really like this. I have such a complex life, so it helps me drain the facts 
- My hair is probably about a foot and a half long now. Tis true. I measured a couple months ago and it was 1 foot 3 inches. That was a total bogus measurement, too.
- Socks annoy me to such a deep level -_- When I was younger, socks gave me the hardest time! I could never put them on right, and the little toe bumps annoyed me. They still do. Plus, finding a pair is like finding a four leaf clover in a clover field. Love that movie.
- I take my writing very seriously. We’re asked to write one page, I write eight. We’re asked to write one paragraph. I write a page or two. Even when my funniest of friends are trying to side-track me while I’m writing, I’ll just shush them and keep going.
- I’ve broken my thumb. And two toes. Read the post here: http://umphulump55.wordpress.com/2009/05/26/its-offical/
- I have a mosquito bite on meh back right now. It itches :/
So now I will tag…
No one! Haha I can’t think of anyone, sorry.
I’ve been tagged :) 01/03/2010

I’ve been tagged by Luv, meaning I have to post five random facts about myself. So, here goes xD
- I am one of the weirdest people in my grade/school. It’s true. Sometimes, I’ll randomly pop into conversations and scream something weird. At lunch, I may roll an apple down the table or throw it at Nick’s big-as(…Uh heck, big as heck.) head when he checks me out. YUK.
- Shoes hate me. Since I have constantly size-changing feet, shoes hate me. The laces always untie. Some fit, some that are the right size don’t.
- Random girls are scared or jealous of me. Haha! In the mall the other day, some girl kept staring at me like I was some weirdo (which I am) so I just glared at her and she ran away, scared. In Hot Topic, while all those preps are buying their little pink hair extensions or Edward Cullen catching nets, I’m the one looking at the Marilyn Manson shirts and spiked bracelets xD
- I’m a Godzilla fan-girl. Don’t believe me? Allow me to name all the Godzilla charecters that come to mind, there are way more, trust me. Eh hem: Anguirus, Mothra, Battra, Godzilla, Mech-Godzilla, Godzilla 2000 aka Burning Godzilla, Megalon, Rodan, King Ceaser, King Ghidorah, Destroyah, Kamacuras, Space Godzilla, Gigan, Ebirah, Hedorah, Monster Zero and Godzilla Junior. In fact, Mothra and Battra have both the larvae and full-grown stages. Destroyah has the crab stage, middle stage and full sized stage. Gigan was updated for Final Wars after suffering damage in a fight with Godzilla in the arctic, Monster Zero appears at the end of that film. King Ghidorah has three heads, and Rodan can fly so fast he can make glass windows shatter WHAT? Please go to http://godzillageeks.wordpress.com/
- I’m good at karate. I don’t take classes, but one time, Antman, a Black-Belt in tae-kwon-do, held up a thick board. I karate chopped it in half on my first try, and my hand didn’t even hurt.
Okay, now, I must make my evil selection. Muhuhahaha! Here are my victims:
