The Great "What if..."

If I had the chance to change something or to change everything, I would be a completely different person, I would change where I live, where I am going, who I am going to be and I would even change what I am now. I know this sounds a tad harsh, but you really need to like yourself to like anything or anyone else. At this point in time in my life, I don't quite know who I am yet or who I am supposed to be. So, if I could decide I would be a famous peace advocate working hard daily to bring peace and prosperity to the world, but not as a ruler of the free world more of as a guide to help every person understand each other. I guess I am going to be doing that now just on a much smaller scale. I am going to college to be a mediator, someone who takes nobody's side and calls it down the middle, and helps people to make the best decisions that are good for everyone. I would love to be a person who does everything correctly and is looked up to by someone. But that doesn't look like that will happen. Anyways lesson learned, try not to be too critical on yourself not everyone can be a famous advocate for peace, in fact I don't think I have ever heard of one at all.

What would you decide? Let us know on Face Book or Twitter! Or just leave a comment below. Thanks for reading and Have a great week!

The Great What If...

There is a movie called What If? it is avaiable on Netflix, if you haven't seen it or heard of it. "15 years ago, Ben Walker left his girlfriend and his ministry calling for a business opportunity. Now with a high-paying career and a trophy fiancé, he is visited by an angel, who gives him a glimpse into what his life would look like had he followed his calling." Below is the trailer...take a peek at it.
 
 
 
If you aren't up on Christian movies, there is another movie with the same primise called "The Family Man" "A fast-lane investment broker, offered the opportunity to see how the other half lives, wakes up to find that his sports car and girlfriend have become a mini-van and wife."
 
 
 


These two men are given a glimpse of what their lives could've been, had they made different choices in their lives, so I ask our readers, would you have a different life, or wish you would've made different choices in your life?

As for me, I probably would've made some changes but not many, but then again I'm only 24 years old. I guess if I were to change some of the choices I made, maybe try a little harder to get along with my step parents before I did. Got my licences when I was 16 like most of my friends, probably got a job then too, becasue trying to find a job now, with absolutly no job experince is rough, even though I have a college degree.

If I were to have a great what if... I'm not sure how different my life would be, what would've changed, what wouldn't change, but it is fun to think about.

So to Jonathan and our readers, if you were given the great what if, what would yours be like? Let us know @AllisonKClark88 and @TheOfficialJCC and let us know if you have any ideas for next weeks blogs let us know.

Going Home for a While.

So some of you know that I will be going home to Ontario, New York for a while. While I am there I will take a ton of pictures and show all of you guys where I am from, since many of you haven't seen it. It may come as a shock to you that not all of New York is a huge city, but where I come from is rather small and peaceful. So I just wanted to let you know that I would still blog weekly with Allison and that I will also be posting extra blogs filled with pictures and stories of my adventures. So that is something to look forward to. Thanks for reading and I will be posting form New York, next week.

Have you ever been addicted to a show that was removed from television and you wondered why?

Everyone has their favorite shows, and they are all addicting. One of my favorite shows that was cancelled was CSI: Miami, but CBS killed the show when they moved it from Monday night to Sunday night. I enjoy all the CSI franchise but there was something about Miami, the cast was so great even after Speedle got killed, the story lines were so great, charcter interactions were great. CSI Miami had a great balance on the charcter interactions as well as keeping the police proceedure going. One plus is that all 10 season of CSI Miami are on Netflix so I still get to watch it.

A few others Numb3rs, Charmed, and Dead Like Me.
 
So readers, what shows have been cancelled that you miss. let us know @AllisonKClark88 and @TheOfficialJCC

Have you ever been addicted to a show that was removed from television and you wondered why?

Have you ever been addicted to a show that was removed from television and you wondered why?
I ran across this question a few times while looking for a topic to blog about. This seems to be because of the rumors surrounding a few television series that may or may not be canceled this summer.

First let me start by listing shows that I was addicted to that were canceled. Starting with my favorite show ever, which would be Fairly Legal, It ran really well on USA Network for a while but was canceled mid season for lack of views. It blows my mind that, a show with such a good story and perfect characters could be canceled. I figured there just weren't enough people who knew about the show. The next show I was addicted to that was taken off the air was Flashpoint. They removed it from the television for about 2 months and then brought it back, thank goodness. I loved Flashpoint for 2 reasons, one it was full of action and who doesn't like a good cop show, also it had Amy Jo Johnson in it, formerly the first pink power ranger! Then AMC was removed from TV and The Walking Dead was gone, but luckily enough people raved to get AMC back and The Walking Dead back. Also IRT: Ice Road Truckers was removed from TV for almost an entire year, but an announcement was made that it will be back this June and I will finally get to see Lisa Kelly again.

Have you ever been addicted to a TV show that was canceled? Let me know your story on FaceBook or Twitter.

Have a question that you would like to see answered on here? Tweet me @TheOfficialJCC on Twitter! Have a great week and we will see you next time. You want to see more blogs head on over to "Ramblings" also by Allison and I.

What is Your Ideal Boyfriend/Girlfriend?

I guess I will start by answering the question posed by Allison: "If you had to choose, the nerd or the cheerleader?". I would also have to say the nerd, and here is why, growing up I was rather popular but all of my true friends were a tad on the nerdy side, but they were the greatest friends ever. So I would have been lucky to have any of them as my girlfriend. Unfortunately it didn't happen so no harm no foul. 
Now allow me to describe my ideal girlfriend for you.

I love a woman who is comfortable in her own skin, she can wear jeans or sweatpants, whatever she wants and still be comfortable. I love brunettes, not too big on blonds or red-heads. I want a girl who is in to diversity and is someone whom I can have an educated conversation with, but still have fun. I want a woman who is confident in herself as well as in me, and I want a woman who is supportive and kind. To me looks do not matter much, personality and attitude matter a lot. I don't want a girlfriend who is obsessed with something like religion. Getting right down to it there are not that many women in the world that I could honestly say are "ideal" for me. It is sad that I am so picky but if a women doesn't think before doing something then that is an automatic no in my book. 

However I agree with Allison, as I too have dated people far from my ideal, because there are few who meet my ideal standards. Granted I will probably continue to date people from outside of my ideal girlfriend. I get friend-zoned a lot by women that I would consider ideal, and that sucks. But you can't define your life by how many girlfriends you've had or by how your girlfriend looks, they aren't property, they are humans with free will and deserve to be treated as such. 

What is your ideal boyfriend/girlfriend?

This was a topic chosen by a twitter follower, if you have a topic you would like us to do, please tweet us at @AllisonKClark88 or @theofficialjcc and let us know

Ok here is the deal, I could sit here and describe the perfect guy for me, however the odds are that I would never find him or if I did he would either already be married or gay. So to go along with the topic if I were to describe the perfect guy: a country boy, nice abs, sweet, knows how to treat a lady, but can stand up for himself, and still take care of me. So doing that, I pretty much described every southern boy there is, and my odds of ending up with someone like that are slim to none. I understand someones need to personalize everything including their significant other, but there are just somethings that shouldn't be or can't be personalized like that. My main reason for saying this I have had two serious boyfriends in my life and neither of them fit this description. So if I would describe my ideal mate, it would have to be inter qualities, not looks; a lot of women would turn down a man if he didn't fit her ideal looks, the bad part is the man who does fit her ideal looks, wouldn't treat her any where near as great as the one who didn't. So you have a choice of two guys; the nerd, he will treat you like a princess; then you've got the jock, he may be better looking but he knows he's good looking and he is more than likely going to treat you like a princess, but you probably aren't his only princess. So if I had to choose between the nerd and the jock, I would have to choose the nerd.

So I'm posing a question to Jonathan: If you had to choose, the nerd or the cheerleader? Or What is your Ideal girlfriend? And to our readers; Nerd or Jock/Cheerleader? or what is your ideal mate? Let us know on twitter. @AllisonKClark88 or @TheOfficialJCC

What Dinosaur are you?

I don't really know that much about dinosaurs so had to do a little research and took the test at http://www.selectsmart.com/FREE/select.php?client=whichdino and apparently I am a T-Rex, Jonathan what do you think about this? 

If you are dinosaur illitare like me, according to http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/prehistoric/tyrannosaurus-rex/ a t-rex is, "Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the largest meat-eating dinosaurs that ever lived. Everything about this ferocious predator, from its thick, heavy skull to its 4-foot-long (1.2-meter-long) jaw, was designed for maximum bone-crushing action.
Fossil evidence shows that Tyrannosaurus was about 40 feet (12 meters) long and about 15 to 20 feet (4.6 to 6 meters) tall. Its strong thighs and long, powerful tail helped it move quickly, and its massive 5-foot-long (1.5-meter-long) skull could bore into prey.
T. rex's serrated, conical teeth were most likely used to pierce and grip flesh, which it then ripped away with its brawny neck muscles. Its two-fingered forearms could probably seize prey, but they were too short to reach its mouth.
Scientists believe this powerful predator could eat up to 500 pounds (230 kilograms) of meat in one bite. Fossils of T. rex prey, including Triceratops and Edmontosaurus, suggest T. rex crushed and broke bones as it ate, and broken bones have been found in its dung.
Tyrannosaurus rex lived in forested river valleys in North America during the late Cretaceous period. It became extinct about 65 million years ago in the Cretaceous-Tertiary mass extinction."

What Is This About Dinosaurs?

So, I know it has been a while since the last time I have blogged, but I think we have a strange but interesting question to answer for today's blog.
From one of my Twitter followers: "If you had to pick a dinosaur, that represents you as a person, what dinosaur would you pick to be? Why?"
Now I had to do a ton of research into dinosaurs to see which dinosaur fit me the best.
So I went here: http://www.selectsmart.com/FREE/select.php?client=whichdino and took a dinosaur personality test, though I am well aware that there is no way of knowing the true personalities of something that lived over 750 million year ago.
Anyways my results came out that I am more like an Ankylosaurus, An Ankylosaurus is a large herbivore, meaning they only eat plant life. They look much like this.

This picture was taken from google. I have no rights to this picture. Thank You.
I didn't really see my self as being one of these dinosaurs but I guess you never really know what these guys thought like, never know I could be just like them. According to archaeologists they are known for traveling alone and are typically very shy. They have armor on their backs to protect them from a direct attack from a carnivorous dinosaur. However, they have a club like thing on their tail that they can use if they are forced to.

Take the test, Find out what Dinosaur you are and then tweet me @TheOfficialJCC and let me know your results. Have any new topics you want discussed also tweet me or @AllisonKClark88! Thanks for reading!
