Blog 47 - Wednesday, April 19, 2017

In the novel Alice in Wonderland, Alice decides to follow a white rabbit in a suit down the rabbit hole.

Obviously Alice is very CURIOUS to where the rabbit is heading and why he is in a hurry!

Tell me about something that you are CURIOUS about?  

When you are curious about something, how do you find your answers?

Is it good or bad to be overly curious?

Explain.

  1. I am very curious. I am very curious about a bunch of things, and when I want the answer to something I always get it. One thing I am curious about is if you can end a sentence with something that people wouldn't expect the sentence to octopus. Just kidding. I can't think of something that I'm curious about right now. When I want to find the answer, I usually try everything. Maybe searching, my parents, or if it's an actual object you're curious about, i'd touch it, find out how it works and etc. I think curiosity is good and bad because it can be informing and make you more knowledgeable, but it can also be bad because it may harm you or worse. As the old expression goes, You can lead a yak to water, but you can't teach an old dog to make a silk purse out of a pig in a pok- oops wrong expression. What I meant is curiosity killed the cat.

  2. Something I'm curious about are the many questions of the unknown. Things such as, how will I be when I'm an adult, what job will I have, will I be happy? The other big thing I'm curious about is what happens after death? Other then those things that I definitely can't find the answers too, when I want answers I'm typically very persistent and stubborn if told no. I will try and try again until I can get the answer to my question. Curious minds are very persistent. To be overly curious brings a lot of pros and cons. The pros means you can have a wild imagination and being curious can help you complete a task involving a main question. However, some cons can mean you can get yourself in danger or troubling situations because you tried to pursue the answer. All in all, to be curious, is a marvellous trait to have!

  3. If you were standing in my shoes you will find that I am not that all curious. Although sometimes I consider myself Alice, now that I think about it I am not her. Somethings I am curious about for example Soccer. I am curious about soccer and my team because I play that sport. Some of the things I am curious about is which new players are joining our team? When and who are the people we will be playing against for our next game? I find my answers by asking my friends on the team or my dad because he is the coach of my team. Or sometimes I get my answers on that day. But I need to get my answers or else I get really angry. I think being curious is a good thing and a bad thing. Because when you are curious you learn new things and it's a good trait to have, but the bad thing is you might be overly curious and snooping in other people's business.
    Thanks for reading,comment down below

  4. I guess you can say that I am a person more curious than the average person. Things that I'm curious is about like what will happen in the next movie or sometimes I get curious about people and what is going on inside of them. When I'm curious, I don't annoy people and go up to them and ask them questions. I mainly discover it on my own with what they do or show you in your daily life. In other stuff like movies and stuff, I try and find stuff that are called ester eggs. I don't think it is bad to be overly curious until it comes to the point that you annoy people.

  5. I am always curious in fact everyone is always curious because you will always wonder what will happen after you do something. like if you in the hallway you can be curious how someone will react to if you lock there lock. But the curiosity you always get is normal but the big ones like Alice had is one in a while. It is bad to be very curious because if you are curious mos of the times you can started thinking bad or sideways. Like if you would think what would happen if I stole that favorite little chocolate of mine from that it only gets worse.

  6. Alice is kinda dumb you know. She doesn't really do things very smartly and can be a handful. Since I have already read the book, seen the movie and done a play of Alice's adventures in wonderland I know that the White Rabbit has a meeting with the red queen. I am curious about what the robotics competition will have in store for us. I hope it will be fun!! I either find my answers to curiosity by asking somebody or by waiting it out. It is both good and bad to be overly curious about things. It is bad because you get in peoples faces and they get annoyed. It's good to be overly curious because you can learn a whole lot of stuff!!

    2. That is true. I feel the writer originally made Alice to be a 4 year old or something. Great blog!

  7. Being curious is very fun because it always gives your brain something to think about. Personally i am curious about science in school, and outside of school, just random things that i don't understand or that seem cool. When i want to know something, believe me... i'll find out. I will not stop trying until i get my way or figure out what i want. To find answers to my countless questions, i usually relie on my parents, teachers, sister, grandparents, the internet or books. But if all else fails, i think there's always a little room for imagination. If i really can't figure out the real answer, either myself or someone else will make up a fake answer or one just based on common sense to make me shut up. Being curious could make you very intelligent and smart but, if you are over insistent or too curious you could get yourself into trouble or get hurt.

    1. Great blog! I do agree being curious is fun :)

  8. Ok in my opinion I find being over curious a very bad thing because if you're curious to see what is in a white van or something idk what ur thinking but fr you need to stop daydreaming and come back to reality and think about what you be doing because I would prefer you not to get kidnapped. As achild I was very curious which was a bad thing because when I was a toddler I would climb on tables and fall off and get hurt because I'm so smart you know like duh? But if you're curo=ious that's cute just don't take it out of hand

  9. What am I curious about? A lot of things. I’m curious about how the world works. How does the world work, I know that the world has a core and the it has layers and all, but how did animals come to earth, how did plants and trees grow? Nothing makes any sense. I also want to know what fast food burgers are actually made of and all sorts of things like that. I just like to know how things work. I go out looking for my answers most of the time, but sometimes I wait for them to come to me. Being overly curious can be pretty annoying. You can get into a lot of trouble just by being curious because you can end up asking questions you shouldn’t be. One time I fixed my grandmother’s VCR because I wanted to know how it worked.

  10. I would not consider myself a very curious person, but I do sometimes get curious. I get curious about the weirdest things in life, for example I always wonder what dogs think about when they just lie there. Considering my curiosity goes to weird places, the answers are usually not found, but sometimes I google my question if I really want to know. I do not think it is good to be overly curious because that can lead to getting into a lot of trouble.

    1. I agree, being too curious can get you into a lot of trouble.

  11. To be honest, I feel like I am a curious person, not about the practical things in life, but about the weird things in life. Some questions that I ask myself are: Why do cats and dogs bark/meow at random objects, for no reason at all? and What do aliens sleep on if they live in space? (yes, I know these are very random questions. Trust me, I don’t even know where it comes from myself!!) When I want to know a question I either a) ask my equally weird friend the question or b) search it up on google. In my opinion, I don’t think it’s the best idea to be overly curious, because it can get you into a lot of trouble.

  12. One thing that i am super curios about is just life, how did everything come t be so, perfect? (In a sustainability sense) The earth has the perfect amount of sunlight and other things to create life. But how are we so advanced? Why have we not found any other life out there? And if they found us, why havent they communicated to us? Are we the most advanced society in the galaxy? These things make me ponder. Usually I would search these things up, but most of the time there are not many answers. I think the being curios is good, but to much can lead to bad situations you do not want to be in.

    1. people usually expect that there wasn't any obligations that the earth and the human race had to follow or that we are the peak of the biological lifeforms on this planets timeline and lifetime. We could've been more productive if we were amphibians instead but for some reason people think that humans are the perfect species because of our unnatural disease. I call it having a big ego and It affects a lot of people. It is when we think we are the perfect image of life there can be and we were so lucky to be this way. Welp, this is my explanation.

    2. FYI the oxygenation event was a MASS EXTINCTION.Bigger than the dinosaur one so we live from a byproduct that killed millions of species before us.

  13. I am curious but I am also very cautious about things I try or do.
    I am definitely curious about foods I try and about movies or TV shows. It's not good to be overly curious because if your overly curious, then it's very dangerous. Example of being overly curious: you see in a movie that someone fell off a cliff and you say "WOW! I wonder how it feels to jump off a cliff? I'm going to go try it! Mom!, I'm going to jump off a cliff!"
    "What sweetie?"
    "Bye! Love you!"
    "WAIT!!!" And then they're gone to go find a cliff, jump off it and kill them self. And that's just one of the billions of possibilities that could happen. So, life lessons with Madeleine, kids, don't jump off cliffs it's dangerous. DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE KIDS!!!!!

  14. I am curious mostly about living another life. I always wonder what it would be like to have different parents, have different interests or even be someone else. I always wonder what it would be like if the world was more accepting, Americans were better at electing presidents and what Brendon Urie/Emma Watson/Chris Pratt/Daisy Ridley were to say to me if I was in an interview with them or even their daughter. My curiosity is 100 000 000 000% unrealistic, so I never get the answers. Bing overly curious I good creativity wise, bad safety wise but overall, I say it's a great thing and promotes adventure.
    BTW: I don't want different/new parents, thank you very much.

  15. I think its good to be curious but there is to much curiosity. They didn't just say curiosity killed the cat just because they didn't like cats. To much curiosity could be bad and put you in a bad place. I don't think I am very curious but sometimes I wonder like if my friends said my name while whispering then that's not usually a good thing and I need to find out what they said.

  16. First off. the saying curiosity killed the cat is so stupid.Of course I don't mean curious as in like drugs but people should be saying CURIOSITY CAUSED PEOPLE TO FIND OUT THE EARTH WASN'T FLAT.Because without curiosity we do not find out things. We stay stuck in our generation never finding out things because according to people wanting to know information is forbidden in households.What I'm curious about is when are the haters are talking behind my back because... well of course it's me. I usually confront it very head on so if you don't want a scene in the middle of the 160's hallway then...back off.

  18. I usually get curious right before I go to bed I just think of all these different things. One of the main thing I'm curious about is if homework never existed would kids do better in school. This curiosity ussaly ends with me falling asleep but sometimes just can't I lie in my bed and wonder what would happen if kids never got homework. I also sometimes get curious about what my future family will be what will my job will I have kids or not. I think about these because I love dancing I just love thinking that it will be my future but in reality it probably won't be.

  19. I think that I am a pretty curious person. I always want to know about all the latest news or drama going on at school or with my family.
    And curiosity kills me to find out what it is, so usually I stop at nothing until I figure out what I need to know. For example one of my tactics are just to ask everyone who i think is involved in the drama for answers. So yes, I think I am a very curious person when it comes to drama.

  20. I think i am a curious person and I'm not. Sometimes I want to know whats going on but sometimes I don't. There is sometimes where like I'll ask what where you guys talking about and they would say nothing and I would just let it go but sometimes it would bug me and I need to figure what they were talking about. I think that being too curious is a bad thing because for example in cartoons the main character would be like I wonder what this big red button does? and they press it and everything blows up. I think it's not good to be too curious.

  21. I think I am a curious person but not about everything. If it comes to drama at our school I am really curious of what is happening and how it started. But when it comes to questions that you can't find an answer to. It doesn't kill me that I couldn't find the answer. I find that it could be bad to be curious because if u get in the middle of things. For example if two people were fighting and you wanted to know why. You can end up loosing both friends because you got involved. If you weren't curious you would have left it alone and you would't have lost those two friends.
