The Healthy Eating Plate



I have something to say about the Healthy Eating Plate.

If you make it healthy, at least make it good.

Whoever made this plate seems to think that kids will eat anything (which they won't), and healthy almost always means someone ate it, barfed it up, then made you eat it. It looks horrible, and it is. It may be healthy, but don't expect kids to actually eat any of it.



If you can't see the words, the green is vegetables, red is fruits, brown is whole grains, and orange is healthy protein.

Just let kids have normal food, and cut down on the junk food, that's it. Not all healthy crap, only some. My suggestion to make it better is make a normal food plate- with maybe meat and rice- and add some veggies and fruits.

The Rewards of Turning 13

So, recently, I turned 13. I'm a teenager now, which gives me the power to play T rated games and watch PG-13 movies officially. Not that I didn't already. But, then, I thought to myself: what does turning 13 itself actually reward you with? I've compiled a list of 5 benefits, and I hope they don't disappoint. (WARNING: List compiled from own experiences, apologize in advance if anyone is offended.)

1. More respect from adults.

This one is pretty obvious. You definitely won't get as much respect as a 9 year old as a 13 year old. The downside to this is that respect also creates expectations, and, I don't know about you guys, but I HATE expectations! :(

2. The aforementioned ratings.

As I said before, you get the benefits of getting to play T rated games and PG-13 movies. It's more of a benefit for kids with strict parents than most others. (AKA, not me, haha.)

3. You don't have to lie about your age when you sign up for stuff anymore!

You know how when you join a message board, and then you need to make a Username and Password and stuff. Eventually, you have to enter a Date of Birth. For most kids, if you come across one of these, you have two choices. 1. Put in your real age, which, if you are under 13 years old, you will most likely not be allowed to join. 2. You can lie. (I do that all the time.) You don't have to feel guilty anymore when you sign up for stuff when you hit that big 13!

4. You begin to see the world as it really is.

Alright, hear me out on this. Remember back when you were much younger, back to when you thought all these naive thoughts about how everything was all sunshine and lollipops. As you grow older, these ideal utopias and good futures begin to melt away to distopian visions and gloom and destruction. When you get to that 13 mark, you begin to get to some middle-ground, where everything isn't dead, but not so happy anymore either. It doesn't actually suck as much as it sounds: It's actually nice to know that there is room for improvement.

5. Some of your silly fears melt away and you begin to see your life in a new light.

13 is about the age when you get the first feelings of nostalgia and getting to look back on yourself. The year after my first loose tooth fell out, I wouldn't have thought anything of it. 5 years after, I still didn't think anything of it. Now I'm starting to be able to fondly remember how it happened, and long for the time when stuff was a bit simpler. Oh well. Also, you start to loose your fears of stuff hiding in your closet, and are able to sleep somewhat safer. Unless you deal on the dark side of the Internet. You know, scary stuff that's actually scary.

Well, those are my 5 rewards of being 13. But, what are yours? If you have any, please put them in the comments section below, and if you have any fond (appropriate) memories of turning 13, add them too! This is CrossbowPig, signing out!!! :D


Rants With Miles - My Chromebook

In terms of what they can do, most people can say that Chromebooks are bad computers - all they can do is surf the internet. Here at the RAUC, the general consensus is that "Chromebooks are good and Thinkpads are bad," and with the limited technology resources here, that holds true. However, outside of school, there are much better computers out there, and none of them are Chromebooks. First, let's go over what's bad about them:

  • They can only surf the web; nothing else
  • You can get "apps" for them, but most of them are just web links to downloads that don't work on Chrome
  • You can't save pictures from an SD card on them! This is very annoying when I'm putting pictures on my blog (Miles on the MBTA), because I have to save them onto my father's Mac, then email them to myself, then go back onto my computer and save them onto that, which takes forever.
These are my main problems with Chromebooks in general - if you have any more, post them in the comments section below.

Now my Chromebook was an entirely different story. It was a piece of junk, and it was much worse than the school computers. First of all, it crashed about once a day, and froze much more often. Watching YouTube videos was a pain, as the buffer (buffering...grr!) would not move no matter what the video was. It was also insanely laggy, freezing for 30 seconds just to right click.

Now you may be wondering why I'm referring to the computer in the past tense. I still have it, but it's had a serious, more permanent crash. This has happened once before, but I was able to create a recovery USB drive to reboot it (losing all my saved pictures and downloads in the process) with the help of Travis the Chrome Ninja. This time, however, the recovery USB drive wouldn't work, and the Chrome Ninjas didn't respond to my email. I had to resort going onto the Acer website (the company that made my particular model of Chromebook) and go onto a live chat with a support guy named John Billo. He was kind of annoying, but I liked him because he thanked me for being such a good customer at the end (presumably he has to chat with very angry people). Unfortunately, I'll have to send my Chromebook to the Acer factory in some remote region of Texas, and this time I'll lose everything.

Memes



So yeah. Memes. Funny pictures usually with lots of irony, puns, or just jokes. Here's some memes.




































I hope you liked these memes, and there are many more online (though some are not appropriate, just a heads up). See you next time!

The Meaning of Life

The meaning of life is to die when you get over 50 years old. If you die before the age of 50, your life doesn't count and you have wasted your life for a meaningless cause. Your life has been POINTLESS and there is no point in anyone appreciating it. Also you should go jump in a hole somewhere cause your life is stupid. Well... I guess you can’t. Cause you’d be dead. Oh. You wouldn't be reading this either. Well, do it anyway. Yeah, so if you die like right now, you have been a DISGRACE to mankind and you don’t deserve to die. Unless you've been to Norway.

Correction: I Lied to You Guys

I was very disappointed to discover that I have committed a lie! In my fabulous Albert Howard post, I said that it was the first post of the school year; it was not. The first post was in fact the fabulous Hate Mail post. We at RAUC sincerely apologize for the error, and...yeah.

Back to blogging


It'll be a full house at the RAUC Talk blog this trimester -- 23 bloggers on Day 1, with more allegedly to come. Whee!

For our returning champions, it was all about getting back in the blog groove. Miles T and Detox Pig were up to their old tricks, with new installments of Albert Howard and Hate Mail, while Official Jean-Louis rounded up thoughts on the school's new salad bar. And for the huge batch of newcomers, it was mostly about checking out the site, getting onto Blogger, and deciding how to contribute. Technical hiccups were many on Day 1, but we'll all be blogging up a storm before we know it.

                              Salad Bar

                                                                 With Elizabeth,

           Interviewing kids and teachers what they think

What do you think about the salad bar?

"It´s alright, but it gets too crowded, takes up too much space, and has a long line." ~ Student 

"I like it, and it´s healthy for you. But people need to move faster in the line, and they need to hurry because more people are coming."
~Student

"I don´t see a point to it because it´s a small thing and not all the students want it." ~ Student 

"It´s better than school lunch." ~ Student 

"I actually haven´t tried it, but I believe it´s a great idea." ~ Teacher

"I haven tried it but I think it´s a great opportunity to eat healthy and I see students enjoying it." ~ Teacher    

"I believe that the salad bar does take up too much space but it does have a healthy option for kids that want it. It takes up 2 whole tables and this year we have many students."  ~ Student 

So here you have it. The info about the new R.A.U.C salad bar on the student´s and teacher´s perspective. :)
