Your writing style is superb
I fail to understand why you choose to write with this smug and somewhat arrogant attitude.
Well where do we begin? "At the start" a rather cynical and profoundly irritating voice shouts out at me. Well where else would I begin? Certainly not at the end! That sort of malarky is left for amateur theatre where the end is the start and the start is the end; it's perfectly confusing and sumptuously predictable. Nevertheless we must press on with our first entry, one that shall grace this under noticed and poorly represented website with some quick wit, some unforgivable tangents and other general malaise forgiven only by those declared mentally insane.
Indeed we begin at the beginning where all good stories should start, I would strive to dive into my history but if there was ever a text book entry for my life it would contain two things; a blurry picture of me looking dreadfully bored and an introductory conclusion stating, "He has less history than the dust in the corner of the room." Indeed I have no history, besides I am only 17 years old, a teenager with 'history' would be dreadfully worrying as I would assume they would have to be vastly intelligent or killed mid way through their teenage life. I am glad I have no history, for in fact I despise History, both the subject and the concept.
Source questions in school lead to my disapproval of its existence in the classroom and its sensational importance lead to my despise of it as a concept. History is often looked back on and is recalled to be the simple most important factor in shaping the world we live in today. Of course there is no argument against it, history is the foundation of society, politics and culture today, but the philosophical element was the basis of my rejection of its necessity. "What if Hitler had won World War 2? Would we all be speaking German?" The fact is he didn't, what happened in history happened. People dwell on the idea of a small change in history effecting everything we see today (not that World War 2 was a 'small thing'), well I'm sure it would change everything, but the cold fact is, it didn't. It did not happen. Read your textbooks, flick through the frivolous nonsense that is 'BBC Bitesize' and draw from that what you can, but please do not look back on it with philosophical hindsight with questions starting with 'What if...'. What happened in the past, happened, don't strain your socially deprived little minds over something that never was.
I am dreadfully bored of this individual entry and so I'm going to gracefully drift off too its conclusion now. Looking back I realise this was more of a rant than a blog style post but who cares anyway? It is effectively history now at this point and looking back and wondering if I could change it would only make me a hypocrite. I hope you enjoyed this completely useless and frankly poor first piece of work and I hope (not for your sake) that more will follow. I shall endeavour to stick more to solid topics in the future but where is the fun in that?
I bid you farewell young aspiring writers. If you have made it this far you truly are bored and should probably find a psychiatrist to help you. If you skim-read the majority of this post, we're on the same page. Any spelling errors or grammatical inconstancies can be placed carefully in a place where the sun doesn't shine.
Au Revoir, Auf Wiedersehen, до свидания, goodbye...

This was certainly interesting. Your wording was... again interesting. I like the points you made and the whole "what if's are invalid" was brilliant. There's just one thing that gets to me. This sounds incredibly ignorant. Do you not think history is important? Does what could have happen not scare you or at least make you more conscious for the future? The whole who cares anyway attitude really gets to me because most of my peers are like that and it makes me want to ring their necks.
Hi.
So this a "beginning work" kind of like another Genesis story that you've created.
It's interesting that you chose to write about this. 
I like the use of the French, German and Russian at the end of the work:
I think it just makes the narrator look more intelligent, as opposed to being relevant to the "story" though. XDAu Revoir, Auf Wiedersehen, до свидания, goodbye...

'Any spelling errors or grammatical inconstancies can be placed carefully in a place where the sun doesn't shine'
Do you mind if I start using that in my own posts? Brilliant. Not sure if your dodgy use of ' inconstancies' was deliberately ironic or not. But it clearly does not matter.
I think you way over did the extended vocabulary here. I felt like I was reading an Arthur Conan Doyle novel (bless his soul) that he had written whilst being as high as Sherlock Holmes. You are, as you said, 17 years old, and I'm not suggesting that you are too young to use your vocabulary as you did, I'm just saying that you sound...(please don't be offended, none of this is meant to be insulting) smug, and arrogant.
Your opinion is well delivered, and well written. You articulate yourself with a lot of confidence, and that's fantastic. You really are a clever dude. Your deliberate disregard for your own writing sounds like a projection of insecurity, and trust me, sometimes being shamelessly responsible and committed to your writing is a greater way to progress.
I felt as though the frank, and humorous nature of your writing deserved a frank response. I sincerely hope you aren't offended, but can see that I appreciate that you have a talent, and a real way with words, but that it makes you very inaccessible. Nevertheless, I'm positive that you are an interesting person (fellow actually feels more fitting), and I would not be surprised to find you sitting in your home library smoking a pipe. Carry on, dude. Greater things lie ahead, or something.
