I really haven't had a free weekend in a long long...
Is 8 weeks of my life worth 2OOO dollars? I think I’d rather change the world than instruct at a summer camp.
I feel like I shouldnt have a tumblr because I...
Plus I definitely have more important stuff to do. Not that you’re not important, just my life is more important than this blog.
Crisis 2 is great. Get it on the 36O.

Freedom to Hate?
In this nation we have all been raised to glorify the freedom of expression. Freedom of speech lets our humanity grow, for us to fulfill ourselves through creativity. Without it we could not share opinions or find the truths that emerge from debate. This is why our founding fathers placed the right to this freedom first in the Constitution, because every person deserves a voice. However as...

So yesterday my friends were debating gay marriage. As they were bringing up religion and all that stuff, I couldn’t help but look at it from an evolutionary standpoint. I mean, if you think about it, gayness is kind-of like evolutions way of creating population control. Humanity has a pattern of spreading and multiplying uncontrollably until their habitat becomes too small, which at that...

Zinns View of WWI (The Great War)
So I’m reading A People’s History of The United States by Howard Zinn, and the book is pretty good. I mean the guy takes a pretty anti-capitalist standpoint at a few times though. He quotes W.E.B. Du Bois when he says,
“It is no longer the merchant prince, or the aristocratic monopoly, or even the employing class that is exploiting the world: It is the nation, a new democratic...

School is actually fun for once AND this is the first time I’ve been trying harder with homework. I wish I had a car parked on campus tho. I like being able to go wherever I want. On second thought, tho, a car would get me into a lot more.. uh. trouble.

It always cracks me up. Thank god they all have their eyes closed.
Summer has ended.
So schools coming up. I gotta say I’m a little anxious about having to wake up so early. All the regular things about school I can handle, just I’ve never been a good sleeper, so this early schedule scares the hell out of me. It’s going to be months of tired eyes, and foggy days. And nothing makes it easier to lose your motivation than that.

Old Woman: You know I'm almost dead, right?
Clare: We're all almost dead.
Old Woman: Well if you can say almost, you might as well live.
Just glass, metal, and water
rips through an ocean of rain.
A silent approach on an unknown destination.
They travel as muscular beings.
Sometimes a beast separates itself,
But soon it will be replaced.
There’s always rubber paws going somewhere.
They travel as one without companionship.
Rarely are they side-by-side,
And quickly they push forward,
And quickly one speeds in front.
Leaving the slow...

Girl says she is still suffering from them and how she hopes the hospital has better food, because what she’s eating right now is almost impossible to keep down. She also says how she’s sad all the time.

her: ha from the impressions i got of you it was all too easy to get girls
him: its easy to get girls
him: but to get something meaningful is different
him: and I make a point not to lie just to get laid
her: well thats a plus
him: yes
him: and thus I dont get laid often
her: lol ur ridiculous
him: maybe
him: but at least I'm honest
her: i guess
her: relationships arent hard to find
him: heh
him: thats one perception
him: mines different
her: and wat is urs
him: that some people just know what to say to make others happy. and a relationship is easy if you know how to do that, but more important than all of that is that you shouldnt just be saying things to make people happy, you should do it because the things you say to your partner make you happy as well, and you both should just be able to open your mouths and make eachother happy.
him: and so if you're just saying things just to make someone happy, and you're not getting happiness out of it, you're in a "easy" relationship
him: if words actually mean something, and you feel a connection where you always want to be there for the person, then thats a real relationship
him: I want the real one
her: yeah well i have the real one
her: you have to be the right kind of person
him: there's a 'right' kind of person?
him: I think there's the "right" kind of person for you
him: and that can be a totally different type for someone else.
