Friday Post #3

So this week was wellness week, so in IT we learned about the dangers of alcohol and how teenagers are in danger if they drink it. Personally, I believe everything in moderation, especially if you're under age. So, I pretty much just gotta tell you what I learned about the danger of alcohol abuse.

The percent of teenagers that drink alcohol....

Only about 14% of all teens in America have said that they've never touched alcohol. Now, if we were talking about my school, 95% of the 14% would be lying. But this is not just my school, so I cannot confirm or deny anything. However, 90% of people who have a substance problem say they started before they turned 18.

The amount of deaths due to alcohol....

Whether you are driving drunk, over dosing, or just getting so drunk your blood becomes the liquor,

you are in constant danger when you abuse alcohol. They should put a disclaimer at the beginning of every Trailer Park Boy's episode so that people will learn that YOU ARE NOT INVINCIBLE.

(P.S. Swearnet, a disclaimer is not needed, i'm 60% sure people aren't so stupid as to re-enact a Trailer Park Boy's episode... 60% sure...) Millions of people die all over the world due to substance abuse.

What is Existentialism?

Now, if you were to just ask me this right out of the blue, i'd probably make up some weird definition of the top of my head. However, google is my best friend.

According to Wikipedia, Existentialism in defined as a philosophical theory or approach that emphasizes the existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent determining their own development through acts of the will.


Anyway, i'm off for the weekend. Have a great day, later.

AlcoholEDU

This week is wellness week, so we have to do all this stuff telling why....

So, I had to do one of these educational tests about alcohol, and why its bad. I cant find a meme about liquor, so, now this is less funny... anyways, here is the project...  

On a completely different note, this is the wrong collage.... Nailed it!

GJ Day 6/8

FINAL DAY

Although I didn't complete the whole Game Journalism thing, im pretty sure I did a good job at what I completed, now, my final moments with Subsistence...

How I played the game...

When I play survival games, with the exception of Ark, I play defensively. I usually never staryed far from my camp, and only fought something when I needed to. In my eyes, this is the smartest possible way you can play a survival game. Never get lost, always have some kind of food in your inventory, and always, ALWAYS , conserve your ammo. Never use your ammo on some lowly rabbit or chicken.

Did I find a Hunter...?

I may have gotten one hunter in the game, but not that I know of, I only had a Base Command Unit (Which spawns The Hunter) once, and only for 20 minutes or so, as I ended up rage quitting when I lost all my stuff to a bear. 

How far could I get in 30 minutes...?

I believe I could get a small base, or at least a foundation that could be used as a roof...

Now its time to prove it....

To be continued...

GJ Day 5

GJ Day 4

Subsistence

So, day 4. I didn't improve much from yesterday, except I died some more. And since I can't be bothered to take screenshots every time I die, I got my head in the game and built something.

*drum roll*

TAAA DAAAA

New location

Also, i'm in a new location, since the last one was infested by bears, wolf, and all things ugly.

*another drum roll*

TAAA DAAAA

GJ Day 3

Subsistence

Building a shelter

I had a hard time building a shelter, especially since I was distracted by my friend somehow getting infinite health, and taking on a bear. I ended up dying by a bear, while trying to see if I had the same glitch.

. 

Fun times....

I did eventually manage to make a wooden foundation...

Aaaaaaand then I was killed by a wolf.

.

I never actually got a base made, I was to busy dying.

If I had gotten a base...

If I had gotten a base made, it would have been in an elevated area.

 

Mostly so that animals couldn't get to me, but I also happen to like the view.

GJ Day 1/2

Subsistence

What I did right in Subsistence? 

I made a campfire, and stayed near my camp while searching for food, water and supplies.

What I did wrong?

I tended to panic and waste my bullets when I was attacked, needless to say, I died a few times.

Tips and tricks?

To reload, press R.

Some of my classmates where having trouble, seeing bullets in their inventory, and not in their clip, so make sure you go into CONTROLS, look at the hotkeys for things.

Craft a campfire.

Make sure to craft a campfire, you'll need one to stay alive at night. You'll need two sticks and two logs. Once you have one, go searching for matches. They'll be in the med bags around the map.

Get basic supplies, don't go for end game stuff to soon.

I tried to make a shotgun the first time I spawned, I ended up getting killed by a bear while searching for scrap metal.

Use headphones.

The game is 10x easier when you have headphones, the animals growl when you get to close, you'll hear little animals run past you so you can catch and eat them, you'll hear the beautiful sounds of the forest as you pass through while scavenging.

How to start.

Your first priority should be food and a campfire to survive the night. Make sure to look for and open the loot caches you find along the way, they contain useful stuff. Day two should be used for making a shelter.
