Love songs

Personally, they are the best and most written about, songs. Some can make you go "Aww" and some can make you go "Oh you CREEP!"
But what is in a love song? I haven't just understood why people wrote these, is it to express their feelings or wanting to write it and sing it for her/him to listen to?
Or is it just a poem said out loud.
Anyone what i'm really getting at is that this is a freaking awesome song!

Chemical love. A nerd's version of a love song. Awww

School Laptops

Ok so here's the deal, Kevin Rudd promised us free school laptops. Yay great. And so everyone voted for him.
Now, I've had my free laptop for about 3 or 4 weeks now and let me tell you I AM NOT happy! It freezes all the time, the free cases that we were given are full of crap - they break and do not protect the laptop, sometimes there is no internet connections in the room that we're in - so what's the point of using one in that lesson?
Personally, i'd prefer not to have been given one. I mean seriously, they suck!
And if they break the repair cost is the same as a newer, better computer.
It's just painful.
Sorry for the rant. It just needed to be said.

Lunches

Now I've been thinking for a while, what would be an interesting lunch to take to school? Don't you get bored of plain old sandwiches? But there's nothing else. We need something with protein and energy and blah blah blah.
But we don't want something silly like this;
What a joke! Ok, ok, so it would be cool to have something like that, but maybe it's not work or high school appropriate. So what would make a good school lunch? I has to be decorative (pretty and colourful), taste good, be somewhat healthy and make all your friends jealous!
We'll I've been searching and I think I've found a few good recipes that are all of those things!

Until next time,
