If a pet shop was on fire i would save the kittens first because they are cute. Then the puppies and then the bunnies and cute little furry things that are small and can fit into pockets. I would leave the fish so they would boil because fish are just fish and i don't really care about them. Reptiles would be let free so they could either run or burn. Spiders and creepy crawlers would be kept in there in the fire.

What I know about yearbook so far is that you have deadlines that need to be made and that the pictures need to be linked so that you can see the actual picture from any computer.

For or Against Valentines Day?

Personally I'm all for it. I love the gifts and snacks people bring to give to the people they care about. But one thing about it is that that kind of spoiling or love should be shown every day. Not necessarily buying things for someone every day, but love shouldn't just be shown on a holiday.
