Lauren Is A Roller Disco Champ
So I went to Castle Skateland with Kathleen and Breanne today, and it was all good. Nik might've come too if he didn't have a baseball game, and I don't think Lauren wanted to come. I surmised it was because she was secretly a roller disco champion and didn't want us to feel bad with our inferior skating ability. Lauren's nice like that.
The three of us get to the place, we rent our skates, and I swore I wouldn't be able to skate. The last time I had rollerskated was four years ago or so when I was still in Latchkey ('cause we would go to Castle Skateland every now and then). But lo and behold, I stand up in my rollerskates with the funky orange wheels and all my skating experience flows into me. I was a BEAST.
Kathleen, unfortunately, wasn't so lucky. Breanne was a small degree better off, but they both got used to it. Sadly, none of us knew how to stop, so we either slowed down or we ran into a wall or something. Overall, the entire skating thing was pretty entertaining.
However, not everything was so peachy. Castle Skateland has always, and probably will forever, have a DJ playing music for the skate floor. Next to this small platform there is a clipboard where one can request songs. Breanne, Kathleen, and I, in our fit of nostalgia, want the Spice Girls. So Breanne wrote it down. When we go back to request another song (Britney Spears, I do believe), and scatered on this piece of paper is this horribly long list of rap songs. These small children have been exposed to this genre WAAAAAAAAAAAY too much, and half the songs are directly associated with sex.
When I was a kid, the popular songs might have had some sexual undertones, but they were never direct about these things.
Every major world power has, at some point, come to a point of destruction. Rome got too egotistical, and was easily defeated in battle. The Mayans and Aztecs were slaughtered by travelers from Spain. The Ottomans just fell out of the spotlight and eventually crumbled. America, sadly, is going to implode because of the youth being exposed to all this crap-filled garbage people attempt to label music. And seriously, if you don't see that, you're just stupid.
