How to Make a Scary Movie Less Scary

How to Make a Scary Movie Less Scary

It is getting close to Halloween which means horror movies. If you would like to know how to be less scared here are some helpful ways to do this, just follow these steps.
1. Take away your senses: This can mean a few things. Most people just cover their eyes to prevent themselves from seeing the movie but plugging your ears is also very helpful. Most horror movies use eerie music and other sounds to create suspense.
2. Give in: If it is really to much you can just give in to the fear. This could be balling up into the fetal position and maybe crying silently. And if its still to much you can just leave the movie.
3. Run with the pack: Watching the movie with a bunch of friends and family also really helps. Being with other people makes you feel more protected.
4. Laugh: There will always be one person who is watching the movie with you that will be laughing or cracking jokes. What this really means is that they would pee their pants if they actually shut up and paid any attention to the movie. However this is a great way to make the movie a little less scary and look like your not scared.

I hope this is enough to get you through Halloween. Good luck.

How to make delicous caramel apples

How to make delicous caramel apples

Some people may have problems making caramel apples. You may have the problem the of to much or to little caramel on the apple. This is how to make perfect caramel apples.

Step 1. You want to melt the caramel in a double boiler to a nice consistency so there are no chunks in it.
Step 2. Take your apples that have been washed, stems picked off, and skewered and dip them in the caramel and make sure its even all around.
Step 3. Cool them in the fridge until they are cool and ready to eat.

Hopes for Drake Highschool Cafeteria

My schools cafeteria is okay. Although some of the food is good, they don’t have much variety and most of the food looks pretty fake. I know students also have the option to go out for lunch or even bring lunch from school, but it is also nice to not having to worry about remembering to pack a lunch or bring money from home. At the cafeteria all you have to do is type in your student ID if you have money on your account and then you can get any lunch you want there. Although I like the cafeteria, here are some improvements it could make.
1. Have more variety, not the same thing everyday
2. Lower the prices on food (A slice of pizza shouldn’t be $5)
3.Prepare the food better (Alot of the time the bread on the pizza isn’t cooked long enough and is soggy)

A thing that i have been wanting is a nice lounge chair in my room. After my brother left for college he took the couch in our room that was a futon that he slept on. He took it and it is know his bed. Right now i dont have that much in my room so i think it would be really nice to have a chair in my room.  It would fill up the empty space in my room and also make it look nice. I hope that thus will happen in the future because i’ve been waiting a while to get one.

Dream Thing

It is October again which means baseball playoffs. The time of year when everyone routes against the Yankees. But this year my home team, the Giants, are in the run for it trying to repeat their 2010 year when they won the World Series. All though the Giants have made it to the NlCS and the Yankees losing bad to Detroit, I am very frustrated with the broadcasting and announcing. Here are some things I hope not to see in a few years.

1. I have Comcast and one problem I have had every night is finding the game. When you go to the TV guide the game is often not shown as MLB Playoff Game which it should be. It is always switching networks and it usually it says that a show like the Mentalist is on. This loses many possible viewers right away.

2. Another thing I hate is the change in announcers. Fox has all TV playoff rights so they have there own announcers. I wish there was a button you could click that you could chose to hear the Giants usual announcers or for the other fans they could choose their usual announcers.

3. The change in the announcers would not annoy me very much except for the fact that they are all from the East Coast. For many years major networks like ESPN and Fox have been very biased to the East Coast. As much as I like hearing Joe Buck saying how good the opposing team is then watch the Giants beat them, it still gets on my nerves when they don’t respect any West Coast teams.

Pumpkin Pie

Pumpkin Pie

When Halloween comes around, everyone knows that its pumpkin pie season. Pumpkin pie is a delicious, creamy desert that only comes around once a year. This yummy delight pleases many families around the world. I enjoy pumpkin pie a lot. It is especially yummy when you have it with whip cream and/or vanilla ice cream. I hope throughout the pumpkin season you can all eat some very tasty pumpkin pie
