Deaming

So some of you may not know. But Japanese scientist have recently been working on how to record your dreams by measuring your brain activity while you sleep. They wake you up from REM and ask you what your'e dreaming about. After collecting  tons of data, they used an algorithm to figure out what the patients were dreaming.  Although only 60% of their research was accurate. Us humans are evolving quickly in technology and it will only get better.

                                             Here's a of video I found intriguing.

There is nothing special about this blog post. So today I will do a how to post. I know quite a few people who do not know how to tie a tie. I have been practicing with one of my dads pink ties and I

 have gotten the hang of it. The image I will show is how to do a Four-In-Hand knot.

If you're wondering what my awesome tie looks like here is a selfie I took. 

                 

Helium

This past weekend I was at my friends birthday party. She had a helium balloon and we had never tried inhaling helium and it sounded fun to make our voices sound high and squeaky. Well I had posted on a social media site that we had done it. And a bunch of rude people had said  we were going to end up being stupid by losing brain cells.
                               Helium does not kill brain cells and helium is not a drug. If helium was a drug we wouldn't be able to put them in balloons without a prescription. The bad thing is helium can kill you. Not because the gas itself but not getting enough oxygen. If you were breathing in enough oxygen and inhaling helium then there would be no harm done.
                                Next thing I wanted to talk about was, The heavier the gas is, the slower sound waves will travel. So your voice will sound deeper.  Helium is six times lighter than air.  So when you talk your sound waves are going  at a higher rate making your voice sound high.

Are wild pigs trying to take over the world? This isn't your typical farm pig you think about. These are Feral pigs. Feral pigs could grow up to 1,000 pounds but on average are 600-800 pounds.

                           The wild pig population have been increasing. They are originally from Europe and brought over by European settlers to the U.S. wild pigs are omnivores. For all those bacon eaters. They have revenge coming! There has been lots of news on a documentary done by Discovery called " Pig Bomb". Giant wild Feral pigs destroying crops and even attacking humans.
                                           WATCH DOCUMENTARY BELOW!!!!!

I have been recently been watching a lot of documentaries. One of them is called "Are we real?" I haven't had time to watch the full movie. But from what I have watched it talks about how we are different from all the rest of the animals on earth. The documentary also talks about religion and how some people think we were programmed by God. The video is about a hour long. I suggest watching about 30 minutes of the beginning that's where most of the valuable information is.

                   I couldn't upload the video from youtube so click the link below to watch the video.

Ever wonder what gummy bears are made out of. That amazing tasting treat that little kids love. Well after this post you won't ever want to eat another gummy candy again. Lets get this straight. Gummy candies are made out of gelatin. Gelatin is made out of  skin, cartilage, bone, etc. of animals. The first two minutes of this video tells us that they use animal skin and meat to help make the gelatin. It may not seem all that bad. But what kind of animals are they using? You can also make gelatin from human skin. I would not suggest doing that because that is cannibalism and that is just gross. 

Maturity

I'm very tired of people calling freshman "immature" my dad has given me some psychology books. One of them is "Games people play". It will change your perspective on everything. Not only will it change you, it will make you second guess the people you know and who they really are. I came across on how people perceive maturity and how "more mature" people act towards people "less mature." Who decides what is mature and what is not? Of course society does. If you laugh at something inappropriate they automatically say "you're immature." What does laughing have to do with maturity? What I find funny shouldn't judge whether I am mature or not. We all have maturity in us. Not even older adults are always mature. For example: Maturity is like a switch. We decide when to turn it on, and sometimes we don't realize we have turned it off. We can not be mature all the time.

Being mature has nothing to do with age. To be mature means to react in an appropriate way in certain situations. Maturity is learned through experiences.  Everybody has been a freshman before or will become one. Freshman are young and still learning and trying to have those experiences. It's hard enough for freshman going through their awkward stages. Don't make it harder on 9th graders.
