Music Mania Friday

This song was a suggestion from two weeks ago. I think that it is a nice song, but it's up to you to listen to it!

Song: Beating Heart by Ellie Goulding

This next song was a song that was recommended to me from a close friend of mine, and I thoroughly enjoy this song. It is underrated, but still amazing.

Song: Once in a Lifetime by Landon Austin

The last song is a song recommended to me by tons of people, so I decided to give it a go. It's a sad but great song. 

Song: Human by Christina Perri

Ask The War Hawks Thursday

[DISCLAIMER: Not actual good advice. Do not follow. Merely for entertainment. Also, the problems are made up.]



Anon: There are so many tests this week and I'm so stressed out! What do I do?



War Hawk Advisor: Cry about it to your parents. Eat some ice cream while watching sad movies. Do anything but study, because that would totally ruin your whole "Don't think about the tests" experiment. Now, if this doesn't work, I suggest you fly over to Hawaii and tan for a while. Bonus if you miss the tests completely due to your little "vacation". Nothing more to worry about... you know, except maybe your grades.

IMPORTANT NEWS!

I have figured out a system in which I could put moderators onto this website, however, this requires your cooperation. First of all, if you know that I don't trust you, you probably have a low chance of being appointed into a mod. Below is a list of requirements in order to request moderator status.

Requirements Needed For Moderator Status:
1) You need to be a trustworthy person.
2) You have been banned no more than once in the chat box.
3) You need to know how to write up posts in the correct format(homeworks, reminders, daily events, etc.) as well as remember to copy all homework and reminders for the day.
4) You need to be good at following instructions.
5) You need to know when to kick/ban someone and how to properly control the chat box.
6) You need to remember to sign "~(insert your name), Moderator" after all daily events you posted. 
7) You must have a Google Account, or this won't work. 
8) You still have to follow the rules.
9) You cannot share moderator status with anyone other than yourself.
10) Remember that I still have the power to de-mod you as well as ban you on the chat box.


Yes, I realize that this is a lot of requirements, but they don't ask much of you. Remember that moderator status only allows you to write and edit your OWN posts. The only time I need to you write up a post is when it is after 5:00PM on a weekday and I have not posted the homework yet. Under those circumstances, you have my permission to post the homework and reminders as well as the daily event, if you know how the format for that specific event is like. If you fit all requirements(I will be checking), you may hand me a slip of paper with your name, email address(NOT YOUR PASSWORD!!), and why you should become a moderator(this, of course, is optional, however it may convince me if well written). This slip of paper will be given to me, in person, no later than April 25. However, the sooner you give it to me, the sooner you may become a moderator. 

Note: This whole notice will be posted on the sidebar as a reminder just in case you cannot find this post later on. Thank you for your cooperation.
