Nobel Peace Prize

Huh.

http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSTRE5981JK20091009?sp=true

So I guess that continuing two wars, one of which should never have been fought and the other of which should have been finished years ago, renewing the Patriot act (http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2009/10/obama-sides-republicans-patriot-act-renewal-bill-p ) and still allowing for renditions to take place counts as being for peace...

Maybe the hippies were right. Maybe just sitting around and talking and thinking about peace counts as doing something towards achieving peace. If so, then everyone in Congress, the White House, and the UN deserves a peace prize. Hell, so does GWB. After all, he started the war in Iraq "for peace"...a war that Obama continues to fight.

Oh yea. He is for Change all right.

Dark Blue Dark Blue...

have you ever been alone in a crowded room...

Howdy folks.

I am finding less and less time to write these days - and even less to write on Xanga.

Life works in very odd ways. A year ago I didn't know where I was headed. I felt like I had no purpose or goal in my existence. I thought for sure that college would change that. Well, it hasn't. I still feel like I don't know where I'm headed - the only difference is that I have this tiny feeling that if I stick with it I might be able to figure it out. The other option is of course to quit, start my own business and make a billion dollars by next Tuesday. Hrmmm...

I seem to have a bad habit of making a post and then running off for a few weeks. Sorry about that.

I also don't like getting too personal in my blogs. I need to keep my distance. Stop blogging all about MY life. Stupid egotistical me. There's politics! Health Care to blog about! The Economy going down the tubes! Wars! Michael Jackson is still dead! And Kanye! Must blog about Kanye!

Ahhhhhhh!!!

Well, Well, Well...

Huh.

It has been a while since I've blogged.

I guess I have been really busy lately, not much time for blogging. But honestly I feel so incredibly overwhelmed, I think it might be nice to have a place I can come to and just vent, and the internet is quite ripe for venting!

My apologies for being absent. I'm sure whatever fan base I built up is long gone now, and I have missed out on many rounds of Xanga drama. Are we still talking about abortion, or fat people, or has Dan crossed the line 10 different times again?

I have started college now. It is interesting. I am feeling incredibly stressed about it, though. I will never understand myself...sometimes, I am a total fucking idiot. I am worried and stressed over papers I haven't written which are months away, or exams which haven't even had their dates set yet, and on and on and on. It's ridiculous. I need to stop freaking out so much. There are too many 'what-if's' going on in my head for me to make sense of it all. Life is too damned complicated sometimes. I wish it could be simpler. I can't tell you how many times I've thought "What if I get an F in this class? I'm screwed for life!" Blah. It's fricking ridiculous.

On the whole, though, I am enjoying myself. I have met some really groovy people, which is nice. I am excited about College, and am loving the atmosphere and learning new things...it's just that all this is so terribly foreign to me, y'know? I need to stop stressing.

Any way, I hope to keep up with this blog. Maybe an anonymous place to vent will be good for me.

Later Xanga.

Parties Suck.

The worst thing about Parties is the groups of people who go to them. I was at a 4th of July one this past weekend, fortunately, alcohol was not involved (as the dynamic of the group changes and gets MUCH worse when it is).

My main problem with parties is that certain people, mostly the desperate, single ones, tend to stand out, while the interesting people are always too shy to come out of their bubble. It sucks.

Take these girls at the party. They had all just broken up with someone, and so it was very much 'OMG, Men suck! Woohoo! Girl power, bitches!! woo!' Meh. I hate those kind of people, especially since at the exact same time, they were all desperately chasing after all the single guys in the room. I wanted to scream and tell them that there is more to life than being in a relationship. Especially since these types of girls are usually wildly unnattractive with tons of makeup of jiggly blobs of fat in all the wrong places.

Fuck it. I like the shy, quiet people who don't try to be the life of the party. Which is why parties in general suck. Those people are confined to a corner while the desperate girls do keg stands or try to feel you up in the pool(true story).

On second thought, maybe alcohol would have made things better...

The Abortion Doc

He's dead! What a joyous day!

I know that as a Christian, God is happy today that a man has been killed in the name of Jesus! How wonderful is it that God's work is being done? God is Great!

I mean, the man killed other people, right? He was basically a serial killer! So I think it's ok to have killed him. God is proud. God is Great!

In fact, the shooter(or should I say hero?) probably saved hundreds of lives that were due to be ended this week! God is Great!

Jesus would have done the same thing. Jesus took the law into his own hands. And so should we! God is Great!

I'm glad we're finally showing those Islamic Terrorist bastards that we're nothing like them.
