C.C.'s definitions
A theory, that the inflammation of "greenhouse" gases will produce a "greenhouse effect" keeping the Earth's temperature up. It's a really good cause, to prevent this from happening, but most people do not know that in Washington D.C., (my teacher told us this) the people are lobbying the oil, so that we always need to use the oil because of the money involved. And that's what it's all about. Money. If it weren't for those lobbyers, (I hope I spelled that right) we could switch to something that would prevent global warming from happening. But no. It's all about money. Doesn't anyone care about what will happen if we don't prevent this global warming, also known as climate change, from happening? Some things that may happen are the following:
The depletion of the ozone layer
Glaciers will melt because of the temperature increase since the Industrial Revolution. Over the last 100 years, the temperature has increased approximately 0.6 Fahrenheit. Over the last 4 decades, the arctic ice pack has lost about 40 percent of its thickness.
Some ski resorts would have to resort to making their own snow. Ski resorts would have to have shorter seasons and in southern Ontario, the length of the ski season would be cut in half by 2080.
In the near future, the sea level would rise 55 meters.
The melting of the polar ice caps.
Many, many species in Australia's Great Barrier Reef will die out because of a few degrees of climate increase.

I really believe in preventing global warming. For more information, you may go to one of my websites, www.neopets.com/~tailofthelily (don't ask, I needed to create a simple webpage)

Get the global warmingmug. 
A singer born in Napanee, Ontario, Canada. She started singing country when she was young. In high school, she was a cheerleader and she took chorus and hockey, although she denies at times the first one. She has a nice voice, but her reputation is really bad because she called her music punk, new country, and then heavy metal. Her music is pop, basically. It has tinges of rock, but that's about it. One listen to her first CD, Let Go, will make you wonder.
Caused a major fashion movement in which "wanna-be" skater-chicks dressed up like Avril and pretended to be skaters. The majority of those people were young girls between 8-12 who didn't have a clue what "hardcore punk" was.

Get the Avril Lavignemug. A style of music only some people can appreciate. Not many pre-teens and teenagers my age like it (I think that's because they want to be "cool"). I like classical, and rock. They're broad, but they're both pretty cool. Classical's always going to be "classic." Maybe in like 20 years, rock'll go out of fashion. Maybe I'll still like rock then, but I don't think it'll be that big. Classic examples of composers around the classical period are Mozart, Beethoven, and a lot others, check them out at your local music store.....classical can be wild and loud and sometimes it can be soft and calm. Don't think that listening to one classical piece will determine what the whole genre is like.
I, myself, have liked classical for a while. My graphics site is classicalgraphics.tk, I have ClassicalFonts, my screen names have to do with classical.....but that's all another thing.

Get the classicalmug. A word most teenagers don't know what it means. The real definition is "a descriptive term; an epithet."
An epithet, for those of you who don't know, is "A term used to characterize a person or thing, such as rosy-fingered in rosy-fingered dawn or the Great in Catherine the Great.
A term used as a descriptive substitute for the name or title of a person, such as The Great Emancipator for Abraham Lincoln.
An abusive or contemptuous word or phrase."
Now look closely at the sentence, "An abusive or contemptuous word or phrase." Isn't that what labels really are?
Labels characterize people. Most people today think labels are basically cliques of people, but it's not. You can hang out with whoever you want, and still be considered a certain label. I dunno about you, but if you would just be yourself, a descriptive term would come up; (otherwise known as a label) INDIVIDUAL! You can't get away from labels. They're a part of life. Deal with it.

Deal with it if someone calls you a prep or a nerd. Take it as a compliment and still be yourself. If you want to talk about this, IM me on AIM at ccglasses19.

Get the labelmug. To "get high" off of something means to feel especially good after doing something. That something might be algebra, some kind of drug, or perhaps a really good book. The high off of illegal drugs, though, is synthetic and is NOT a good high, as it brings your mood straight down after you get this high.
You might laugh at the slightest thing or feel free of worry. It depends on the individual, really.

Person 1: "Yo, do you want to get high off this new thing."
Person 2: "No, I'm not crazy like that. I get high off of good things that don't bring me down. Here's an awesome book." -hands person 1 a book-

Get the highmug. I've always looked at it as being boring, living here all of my life, but it is alright. It isn't very dangerous, quite safe in most suburban residential areas. Some areas, though, have rising crime rates.
Contrary to popular belief, Norwalk is an extremely diverse town. One side of Norwalk could be completely different from the other side. Norwalk is NOT a ghetto, although certain parts of South Norwalk can be counted as a ghetto. Some of South Norwalk can be extremely culturally diverse and interesting.
East Norwalk is what you would think as a suburban part of Norwalk. It contains many suburban homes and schools convieniently located around the middle of the residential area.
Yes, there are traditional "preps" in Norwalk, but most of them are nouveau riche preps who go to country clubs such as Shore and Country and Shorehaven. Also, there are the various cliques.
