Perspectives

It's weird how certain events just put things into perspective and add an odd sort of fog over everything that happens. But on a less reflective note, I've noticed that I've been offline for a while now and LOTS of people keep friend-requesting me. It's nothing personal guys and girls--I'll get to accepting and replying eventually. School and other things have just claimed my life for now. I don't know if I'll get it back any time soon. Comment this if you must. It's nice to sometimes know that I'm not rambling to myself, you know. I don't ask for much and I suppose I'm not asking anything right now either....

Public Service Announcement

I've noticed that not many people actually read these, but for those of you that do...well...this is for you, I suppose. As it turns out, I've gotten lazier and yet BUSIER as time goes on, so I'm not planning on being online near as often as I was this past summer. That was a pretty spectacular feat in and of itself. So don't get offended and upset, or act like you don't care or like I no longer exist if I don't respond in two seconds, let alone two months. I'm not dead and you probably aren't either. If you are, you wouldn't be reading this, and I hope you didn't die of me NOT replying. That would be a shame and I might feel bad. And one more thing...my display name will now promote bands for however long I go before getting back online and changing it. Like I said, I'm getting lazy. Do them a favor if you have never heard of them--check them out. I wouldn't post anything about them if I didn't think it was worth it.

Isn't It Funny?

Isn't it funny that when you go to the shops with your friends, you look down at the girl with black jeans and studs, but smile at the girl wearing a mini with a t-shirt that barely covers anything? Isn't it funny you can change your music taste to impress a guy, but when it comes to a girl who likes her own music and her own style, you give her a mouthful? ISN'T IT FUNNY that a guy can get away with being a gangsta, but the emo gets a mouthful from everyone? Are you laughing? Isn't it funny a emo can be quiet all through the week but gets more shit from everyone than the girl who sleeps around and sells her virginity? ISN'T IT FUNNY that you dont mind your friends drinking or smoking, but the minute someone mentions emo music you can give them a lecture on melodramatic teenage outcasts? I'm not laughing. IT'S SO FUNNY that you and your friends can make a girl's life hell and not know anything about the silent battle she might be fighting. ISN'T IT FUNNY that you can call emos, punks, and goths the retards, but still manage to get through your day without an inch of guilt in your heart. HOW YOU CAN CALL A GIRL A POSER, HOW CAN YOU SAY "YOU'RE NOT EMO" OR "ATTENTION SEEKER" WITHOUT SPENDING A SECOND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY THERE ARE CUTS ON HER WRISTS AND WHY SHE SPENDS HER LUNCHTIMES CRYING INSTEAD OF LAUGHING WITH HER FRIENDS? KEEP ON LAUGHING! Isn't it funny you can say and do all this without any idea of what is going on in this person's life, without knowing her situation with her friends or her family or her life?

BRAVE ISNT GOING UP ON STAGE AND STRIPPING. BRAVE IS NOT SAYING A SPEECH OR DUMPING YOUR BOYFRIEND. BRAVE IS GOING TO SCHOOL ON MUFTI DAY AND NOT FOR A SECOND CARE WHAT THE WHORES AROUND YOU ARE SAYING ABOUT YOUR CLOTHES. IT'S LISTENING TO YOUR OWN MUSIC AND BEING PROUD OF IT. IT'S GOING THROUGH EVERY DAY WITH THE THINGS PEOPLE SAY TO YOUR FACE AND BEHIND YOUR BACK AND YOU STILL KEEP QUIET ITS KNOWING WHAT YOUR "FRIENDS" ARE SAYING ABOUT YOU AND STILL CALLING THEM YOUR FRIENDS. BRAVE IS KNOWING THAT TOMOROW ISN'T A BRIGHT AND HAPPY FUTURE, IT'S ANOTHER DAY OF BITCHING AND DODGING RUMORS. KEEP ON LAUGHING. If you agree put this in your blog.

Pasta-Induced Ranting...

Okay...I'm not sure if everyone has heard about it, but supposedly there is some sort of cult thing going on about The Flying Spaghetti Monster. Basically, it is like a play on Christianity...only with a Spaghetti Monster. I don't make it a point to make fun of or criticize people's religions and whatnot, but for some reason, this one really bothered me.

Especially when a friend of mine ran up to me this morning and screamed, "Religion!" at me and threw a flyer at me with info about the thing on it.

I mean, she is atheist...but if she was going to say that God does not exist, then why accept a belief about a gi-normous pasta version of Him? You don't have to scream religion at people, especially if you claim it doesn't exist...I hate it when people try and shove things down my throat. I mean really, is that how religion is supposed to be spread? For Christianity, the Word is supposed to be spread in a compassionate manner. Also, is it really necessary for those who openly mock religion to go and create one of their own? If they feel the need to fabricate some sort of corrupted religion that makes fun of all known religions, then obviously they have to know deep down that something is missing.

Am I the only one hearing about this [randomly]?

And why does it have to be pasta?
