Journal #3 and gum

Before I start writing I must say...
CHICAGO IS TOMORROW!
You can describe my tone as excited. Haha just a little AP Literature and SAT II Literature carrying over into the weekend.

Today I took the SAT IIs Math 2C and Literature. I did fine. Answering multiple choice questions whoo hoo! What more can I say about it? I was awake the whole time, so I'm proud of myself for that.

I need something new to this blog. I need to write about something. I'm tired of this. Why am I writing about my day to day event? Can I say boring?! Ok today is a new blog. New Jankaew's world!

Topic 1: Gum a.k.a. (grammar, usage, and mechanics)
I already know what you're wondering. What about gum chewing? Why is it even a topic for a blog?
The answer is I hate it when people chew up just for the sake of chewing. You know it's okay to chew gum when your breath stinks because you didn't brush your teeth (which you should do every morning and night) or you need something to chew on to stay awake during study time, but when your just walking around... why? Does it strengthen your jaw? Does it make you a better kisser? Does it make you look "cool"? Does it relieve stress? I don't really think so. Stop gum chewing!
High school are the biggest culprits for chewing gum when they shouldn't be. During class and when they're talking to people it's freaking annoying, man! I saw this guy jaw move up and down as he played his piece at his piano recital. Disgusting and disaster. What's even worse is when you talk to people the other person can see the gum is moving around your mouth as you talk or you can't open your mouth wide enough without spitting out the gum and hence no one can understand what you are saying!
I guess in the past it got so bad that it got banned in elementary, middle, and high school. I believe the main reason it was banned was to teach kids manners, but that's not the school administration's job. It's your parents.
You know what else I hate about gum? People put it under desks, or just spit it out onto the floor where someone else can become part of a fateful encounter. You know how it is. You've stepped on gum before. You ask yourself, "Why me!? WTF! Why me?!" The problem isn't that there aren't enough trashcans. The problem is people don't have the common courtesy to wrap their gum in the wrapper it came from and throw it into the trashcan.
I know there's a lot out there who love gum chewing. "The flavor is delicious!" But the thing is the flavor doesn't last that long. I'm not sure how many chews it takes until the flavor is gone and I'm not going to get gum to chew because then I'll be a hypocrite? But 100 chews max! I could compare them to the tobacco company. They use the same methods to gain profit, if you think about it. Ephemeral products that may become addicting, but gum is a step down from cigarettes I understand, but smokers chew gum! OMG connection? I think so! If there is a study done on gum I bet some scientist can prove that... GUM CAUSES CANCER! haha maybe not. I'm going off the edge, what properties of gum causes it to not dissolve in your mouth after chewing it for long periods of time and why does that black stain occur on black tops after its been left there for a while?
GUM. I dissaprove useless gum chewing. Stop it. Don't chew gum when you talk to others or present yourself at a job interview or a piano recital. If you do chew gum please don't stick it somewhere you wouldn't want to find it yourself. It's a pet peeve and I am writing about it.
