I think that its intersesting that only 1 out of 2 billion peope live to be 116 years old. the oldest person that has ever lived is 168 years old and his name was Shirali Muslimov
                                                   (1805 – 1973 (Allegedly) Age: 168 years)
Most dispute his extreme longevity. Muslimov was a Talysh shepherd from the village of Barzavu in the Lerik region of Azerbaijan, a mountainous area near the Iranian border.

Reading Log 2.14.13

Today I read a couple chapters of Perfect Chemistry. I read the second book first because I didnt know that there was a first book, so now im all backwards because characters in the story in this book are older now because i read Rules of Attraction first. But today was a good read. i read about how now alex made a bet to one of his friends that he could hve sex with brittney, the most popular girl in the school, in the next month. Brittney is Alex's lab paartner so she doesnt have a choice but to sit clse to him and she really hates him and always tries to get as far away as possible because alexs ex-girfriend, Carmen, is still obsessed with him and she is also a part of the Latino Bloods and brittney is scared of her. Carmen comes up to brittney and she wants to beat her up because she is hearing rumors about brittney and alex, and she is jealous. All together, at this moment, Alex is trying to get in Brittneys pants, Carmen hates Brittney because she is jealous that Alex is trying to get with her, and Brittney hates Alex and is scared of Carmen. and Colin, Brittneys boyfrined always tries to make Alex mad and aways makes fun of him and allex always fights back and its just a big war of drama.
