| This is my first login in years. I had a lot of fun reviewing all my friends' dead xanga sites. Two years, three years, some even five years dead. I miss those times. I also miss sharing (blogs). Nobody shares (blogs) anymore. I always miss the past for some reason. I view it as incomplete. But that's an entry for livejournal. I just hope that when all those friends with dead xangas come back for the first time in years they have as much fun reading my top five entries as I did reading theres.

Haha PS Remember when I used to post show reviews? I was a funny little blogger.

| So where are all my friends this summer? I sit at home all the freakin'
time. The past few days have been an exception, but I can usually
occupy myslef on Fridays or Saturdays and Tim has Monday and Tuesday
off but that's it. I miss intense back to back days of swimming and
sleeping over and eating horribly. I just don't want (one of) my last
summer(s) to be so dull. Let's go hiking or to the beach (I've only
been once this summer!) or to a show.
Now, aside from that, I found
I may actually like San Francisco, if I ever went somewhere besides the
tourist spots. Someone needs to show me around some day.
Grossness disclaimer, you have been warned: I'm actually kind of sad that I wasn't really farting much this weekend, I wanted to show off to Rachael's dad.

| What if piracy in the English seas was like punk rock and anarchism is today. If pirates had ideals about overcomming imperialism and colonial rule by not partaking in the system and attepting to build their own way of life. But then there are all the chaos pirates who all they do is rob the ports 7/11s and drink rum all night. I have a theory that societies never really change much from period to period, and that people have always just been people. | | |
| Today in my intro to Human Services class-Okay for those of you who
don't know what human services is, it's basically services that are
guided toward meeting human needs: social work, community development
and the like. So by being in this class (as it is not required for
anything but the Human Services certificate) every student has showed
some intrest in helping people. So anyway, in my class there's this
dude called Rudy. He is a quite large Mexican "Cholo" type. He was (or
is) envolved with gangs, openly smokes weed all the time and gives
tattoos to his friends with a size 5 guitar string and a pen. So he was
gathering his things up before class and put them on the teacher's desk
(it was early and the teacher is usually late). He set his stuff down
and this white chick from El Segundo (the two of them have a
relationship where they tease eachother with stereotypes half seriously
that the other fits into) is like *seriously* "you gonna teach today
Rudy? I can see you as a teacher..." and he says *half seriously* "If I
was teacher I'd say 'All the white people in the back. Blacks and
browns come forward.'" After a couple short words about Mexico between
the two of them and I come in and say "I bet you wouldn't guess my
grandma was born in Mexico." Rudy turns around, forgetting I was there,
"You'd be cool though, I'd let you sit in the front."
That moment, those words, are why I am the way I am. Some people might
wonder why I try to have so many friends. Some people might wonder why
I act differently around different people. Some people might wonder why
I don't take strong positions on issues. Some people might wonder why I
always take the side of the accused. Some people wonder why I try so
hard to make people like me.
All of that to be accepted. All of that to prove that I am as valid of
a person as anyone else. All that to be able to offer an opinion to
someone that otherwise might not accept such words from someone of my
color/creed/gender/whatever. | | |
