Twenty

I'm two decades old today.

Twenty years ago I was twenty years younger than I am currently.

I'm going to see Up today, hopefully it will be uplifting cause this whole getting older thing is really getting old.

Tonight we're going out to celebrate the fact that I have twenty fewer years to live.

Commence quarter life crisis. I'll have to go out and get a sports car and a bad hair piece.

Hope everyone else is having a wonderful June 12 :)

Edit:
Up is a very cute movie, and made me cry like a baby with how adorable it is. However, if you're feeling self conscious about age, don't see Up. Score one for the nursing home, 0 for Rachel. le sigh.

One

It's just one of those days I s'pose, one of those days where you have a song stuck in your head and a thought stuck in your heart and there's no sense fighting the feeling cause fighting gets you nowhere (silly). Now if only the weather would cooperate with my mood, everything would be golden.

Where are We Going?

I got an A on my first STAT II exam of the summer session. Shove that in your pipe and smoke it, she who is to remain nameless (my ex-stats professor from my real college where I don't have to pay a grand per course d;lsfhd;rfhdsfs *obscenities*).

Rachel Maddow looks really tired tonight... le sigh. I'm pretty tired too. Tired of people hating each other and people fighting and killing peoples' fathers and mothers and sisters and brothers and friends. God bless that man who gave his life at the Holocaust Museum today (I'm well aware that he likely unknowingly gave his life, but he died defending the lives of innocent people and that's a hero) and God have mercy on the man who killed him.

I guess it's my opinion that, if we raise our children to be understanding, accepting, forgiving and embracing human beings (kind of like that being we are constantly killing and fighting and dying in the name of), the world will be a significantly better place than it currently is. In Catholic school when I was very young they taught us "do as I say and not as I do" (they also taught us "children are to be seen and not heard" which is probably the most traumatic thing anyone can ever say to a child), well it simply doesn't work that way. I learn from what I observe and I mimic the people I consider to be infallible.

So long as there are people in this world who will kill people simply because they disagree with a group of people, or for no good reason at all, this world IS hell, and these people continue to make it that way.

Where are we going? I guess I don't understand what extremists want, do they just want everyone to be as miserable and hateful as them? Don't they see that, even if their fantasies did come true and the world was rid of the people who make them tick, that they would still be hollow human beings searching for something to make them whole?

On a lighter note:
Maddows dead straight people and live gay people joke just totally threw me off, she's a real hoot that one is.

I'm turning 20 on Friday... oi my knees are already killing me. This getting older thing is really getting old. I know I'm full of shit but I'm so darn cute, and modest too.

Just live for today
