"yes i am a hypocrite welcome to adolescence." "u know i really like me. as arrogant bitchy self concieted and hypocritical as it sounds i really do." im glad im still young. im in one of those moods where i really love being a kid. i didnt really do nethin to exciting today and we kicked maja bootay in soccer today. well ok we lost but hey we played great. maybe i wanna run away to never never land on a grand pink pony and never grow up. i can sleep on a bed of daisys and bathe in the sun....if only if only. i wonder how things will turn out. who people will be. *sigh* such ponderous thoughts. i must return to pittsburgh. a little less than 3 weeks n ill be back at kings downin the kitchen sink. where has the time gone? i was bullshittin on the phone with an old friend of mine on sunday. what happened to the days that i spent down in the woods, climin a few trees. catchin a couple cray fish. not a care in the world. mayhaps i dont want to grow up. damn what was that song....eh. u know what i found today?? a really lovely picture of me and a bunch of friends laughin. :) it needs to be summer dontcha know. then i will have no urge to try and be anally mature as bobie might say. ill indulge in my childish delights. i wonder what all the big shit in life is? life love and liberty? so far im perty set. maybe now i gotta do is ummmm.....finish my sculpture. of eleanor. im going to turn her bubies into a money holder. hmmm gotta take more art classes. artsy fartsy. heh. i do like coffee. u knwo what would be fun? climbing in that HUGE foam pit! that should be post prom. hehe. u know what was really fun today? running across the lacross field with nothing but the sky above me. yay. of course i was only heading towards the portapotty but hey for a few moments things were very nice. and on my return LUCY SCOORRRRED. yeah rock. go bison cheer. heh heh no one cares cause nones of u is soccer folks. gotsta love those endorphins. grr my cat is being a bratwurst. hes trying to eat my foot. PINK is a weird artist. uh huh. she is. i wonder what my hair would look like PINK. bad. very very bad. speaking of which im surprisingly excited about prom. i dont know why i love dances so...but i do. and lots o my underclassmen buds are goin so all the better. i dont see why ppl stress over it tho. i mean hey if i dont get a dress i can always wear the one my big sissy gave me. yah. that reminds me. i havent talked to a friend of mine in a long time. im worried about her. but its her life. *sigh* so helpless. i think i should volunteer at planned parenthood. that would be nice. i mean im not exactly pro abortion but im most definately pro birth control. baaaah tooo many ppls. gr. dude u know whats nummy? avacados. i dont know when i started lovin them but i do their green gooeyness is soooo ADICTIVE. its like ummmmmmmm i dno what its like. maybe oranges. i wonder. i wonder whats in a wonder ball. i havent made a lovely babbly post like this in a while. nope nope i havent. hey what happened to that gel pen craze. that used to be da PIMPTEST. bah ino why im writing this. i dont wanna write my history paragraph. ooOOOooo u know whats the bessssstest sedative? ENGLISH reading. maybe cause im havin a hard time getting into the book or im just tired by the time i start but damn i was out b4 11. baaaaaaaaahhhhh gotta have dat spa day. i can make lots o MULA yah. yah yah. dude i wonder what ever happend to jerg? hes from holland. i dont know how to spell his name but he was funny. i wonder what ever happened to him. dawn would know. i miss dawn. i should chill with her sometime. *sigh* where has all the time gone? bah why do i miss so damn many people. gr. gr. gr. tigger? MERRY??? damn. ok no more bloggin im just getting sullen.
globalization is an interesting process, while on one hand it seems to have spurned a great deal of homogenization (sp?) it also has allowed minority to meet minority and further these minor sects. i think the major problem with capitalism is the attitude of our benefit at any cost. should we have placed sweat shops in third world countries? who knows? but now that theyre there we cant just take them away, they are one of the few sources of income. if globalization has the momentum i aspect it to we need to question the long term benefits. although a sweat shop creates nice soccerballs hand stitched by 12 yr olds, those 12 yr olds probably will never have the money to buy one new. so perhaps henry ford, with all his faults had a point. as did the producerists. a fair share of profits. its funny being idealistic because i have absolutely no idea how to implement any such system because such ideals are highly fragile and easily subverted. i mean some companies have been very sucessful. i believe Newmans Own's profits all go to charitity. but i mean a great many public works in pittsburgh were founded on the maimed immigrants of carneiges steel factories. for many years it was possibly one of the worst places to live but just a few years ago it was voted best city in america to live in. its all give in take. the question is which end do we cut short.
btw i havent read gertfrobes previous posts, but u sound a hell of a lot like a particular friend of mine's mother who currently is not held in the highest regard in a number of circles. she has posed a great deal of blame for other's actions on me, and i have been blamed for not being able to keep her child out of trouble when there was very little i could have done. choices are only individual to an extent and i believe this strongly, but there has to be some responsibility. do i blame the system for societies problems? sure why not. but i mean alot of it is on our shoulders were going to have to do something, and im not talking some great revolution just a bit of change in our victimized attitude. the taliban for example were placed in power by us. they were "freedom fighters" and were armed against the soviet union by US. (this was just covered in US history so if im wrong forgive me) and now they are the newfound terrorists.
oh i admit strongly to being a hypocrite. if u have read my posts i say that fairly often. do i buy into our capitalist society. i personally think that capitalism is the way to go, i mean im not going to make any value judgement of living in a dirt hut and eating bugs but hell i like stuff. in fact i like lots and lots of stuff. communism is a great idea but only so far as an idea because it fails to factor in many key parts of human nature, for example greed. am i greedy? yes. do i like the fact that my house has two stories, i have a computer, clean water and food at every moment through out the day. hell yes. i mean i understand the prosperity that capitalism gives us. i mean my mother in particular grew up without electricity, running water, her food was rations and their idea of health care was rubbing insense ash into an open wound. i mean cmon now. my great grandmother was buried alive. i have a disclaimer on the edge of this blog for a reason, this is where i rant and rave the majority u cant take serious. its just be babbling along. i love dry ice. if u take a look at my room its full of shit with no purpose other than being shiny. i go shopping every other week or so. i recently bought 100 bucks worth of clothes i dont really need. i dont know why my accumulation of worthless shit brings me so much joy but it does. thats what im questioning. why i am the way i am. why people are the way they are. personally i find this a more productive activity than doing a few lines of coke. id rather not find out how my teeth can go numb.

oh about the drama queens ending up pregnant and living in a trailer. i dont know what ur definition about drama queen is but thats far from where i see most of them. i see most of them growing up and learning to live without all the excessive shit. i see some of them becoming writers i see some of them becoming actresses. i see some becoming pre-school teachers. i see some being cashiers. i see some being waitresses. i see some of them going places. i see some of them going nowhere. its not like who u are in highschool determiines who u are in life. lets hope we change. i mean DAMN i sure as hell dont want to stay this stupid and ignorant. thats like saying every computer geek is going to end up a 39 year old virgin living in his mothers basement running a .com.

note to self make drug/sex post/sex ed post/
do u ever feel like ur hiding something even though ur telling the truth? do u ever think that ur lying subconciously... well not lying but bending the truth without even knowing it because ur lying to urself. and then lying about lying to urself. and if u believe ur own lies are u actually lying to other people if what u think u think is true to u. ok that was damn confusing but i hope someone got it.
once again im back on that reputation rant. does it matterwhat people think of u...or is it only what u think of urself. because sometimes their are individuals who have a fairly distorted picture of themselves and how they relate with other people. and many other people see it far differently...but do those other people count? because as my friend and i were saying the other day we are all intricately a part of each others lives. ur life has an influence on my life so arent i entitled some influence on urs? i mean often times our reputation precedes us and so people treat us as they know OF us....and sometimes this is good and sometimes this is bad. but then clearly what other people think does matter because it changes how people think of u thus treat u...thus how u feel u are treated...thus how u react...thus how they see... etc. and u know u could say oh everyone should have a clean slate every time as the solution but that has many problems as well. for example dishonesty would be a huge factore there. misleading a person to believe u are something ur not. but if u think u are...then does it matter if ur really not. because whats REAL...dAmn im back to that NORMAL/REAL thing again. i guess i never raelly understood it as a concept cause if ur completely normal ur rare and thus abnormal. bah. philosophy sometimes hurts my head.
o yeah another thing for all u weirdos who dont already have my sn its armygurl131. yeah so neway time to babble some more. have u ever felt bad about being proud of something? i mean its weird...i always want to be really modest but every now and then im really proud of something i did and i always feel guilty expressing that? does neone else feel that way? like its rude not to start of u know i dno if its all that good but im really proud of myself for being able to do this. i mean is it wrong to be like hey i did a pimpass job on this go me. because sometimes u know those people...im not going to point any fingers...but for example are REALLLLLY good at drawing or something...or at a sport...and ur like OMG thats SOOO cool. ok maybe not exactly like that but u get my point. and then they dont want to accept it so their like im really not all that good. but sometimes..certainly not all the time...u can tell that they dont want to be modest...but they are anyway. OH and then there those people....*evil eye* that do the "oh this old thing" routine. i think thats farrrr worse. maybe im just being weird tonight but its strange the whole modesty arrogance thing.
bah i really dont know what happened to my aim addiction but its crazy...all of a sudden it hold very very little appeal for me anymore. ive kind of moved on to the phone because then i dont get bogged up with the really i dont want to say meaningless...but less noteable conversations the hey..hey...so im bored..yeah me too... conversations. but because ive kind of eliminated that so i can pay more attention to one person and devote more energy to a particular conversation ive also lost alot in the broadness of my conversation because not that wide a range of people call me. and i really miss my psychobabble random philisophical political debates. so hey my cell doesnt have all that many minutes but if ive got the time ill definately call u up from my house fone for a little chit chat. i only say this because most people hate talking to my parents because they are kind of scary and they got REALLY bad asian accent. so if ur bored or somethin next time u catch me online ask for my cell number. id put it up here but...it is a public blog and any weirdo could call me. and thatd just be creepy. so yeah just ask.
sometimes i have lots of pondering about just how ell u can know a person. u know how somethimes u get feelings about people.. but u never truely know at all.. and then one day they tell u and ur surprised but at the same time u kind of knew it was coming? i dno maybe im judgemental or maybe i just like to know how people work but i pay attention to impressions. that doesnt mean the feeling i get from the person is set in stone..because who knows theres all manner of influence. they could have been having a horrible day...they could have recently had some sort of tragedy...there distracted because there excited anxious and busy with something else. but although i take that into account i kind of take not of the feel i get from them in the sand. far from permanent but visible for the time being. ive noticecd that not to get me wrong...i have been wrong many a time..but i tend to get a fairly reasonable impression of a person the first few times i REALLY talk to them not just a hey...sup...nm conversation. i dno i cant tell if this is a good or a bad thing
back to that whole idea about innocence vs experience...ignorance being bliss thing which one really is better. i mean sometimes there people that are so innocent...that i wonder so much if their going to break. just one day snap and go over the deep end. and i want to kind of ease them into the big bad pool of life before they go with a running start to do a dead dive in the deep end. i guess in this analogy (i appologize im a swimmer at heart) ive been out of the baby pool for several years. im guessing im at the five foot range. u know where if u stand on ur tip toes ur good but if a current rushes by u gotta tread a little bit to stay afloat. and sometimes if theres a big splash all of a sudden u dont have a chance to prepare urself and u get a little water up ur nose. but no big itll settle down in a bit.
back to that age thing. before i went off on that lovely tangent i was going on to say what is a NORMAL 16 year old. i mean normal and average are cleearly different things. but whose more normal... the 16 yr old off at parties..having sex...experimenting with drugs..nothing too hard core....or the one that goes to a handful of parties...has a B average...fights with their parents on occasion...and has a handful of friends. or on the opposite end the completely sheltered innocent 16 yr old who has not yet been exposed to the horrors of our constructed reality?
age is a very funny thing. time and place i fully beleave are relative. sokmetimes a simple room can seem so learge and looming... escepcially when it requires cleaning... and other times it can feel so small... barl able to cantain the amount of feeling in u. or it coult seem so large and empty. a void completely lacking in creature comforts. no distractiono interesting enough to hold ur attention. nothing to keep u in this wo4rld. nothing from keeping u from sinking back into that comfortable darkness.
another thing is im never sure where the line is between pleasing eople and self improvement. ive realized that im fairly selfish in nature and dont go commenting on some self esteem boost crap at the moment, let me get my point across. sometimes i feel like im trying to improve certain aspects about myself, for example, my argumentative nature for good reason. sometimes...well alot of times it gets me into trouble. so ok. good thing so far. but on the other hand... that part of who i am. its part of what makes me exciting. its what kept me from being used as a door mat. i guess i just need to find that healthy balance between knowing the right time to do things. because alot of times a good fight is fun... even when both parties are serious... but other times its uncalled for unneeded and nothing but a game for m own one upmanship.
ok so ino u guys are rather dissapointed in my lack of blogging so here goes. well i just had a bit of a heart to heart with several people and once again i feel like im getting to know myself more and more. for a long time i was a afraid of looking at my mistakes. i was ashamed of the different people i have been over the years but im now realizing that theres no need to be ashamed of my former stupidity, because ive learned from them. i should only be ashamed of my mistakes from which i have not yet learned and continue to repeat.

u know how sushi often bothers alot of people because its raw meat? well what about cooked meat? how does burning something change the fact that it is the slowly rotting carcass of some formerly living breathing animal with siblings parents...family etc. i mean really how does cooking something change anything. then u have warm/hot dead animal. i just dont get how thats any more distanced from the living thing.
u know fashion has allllways baffled me. always. i mean why can't boys wear makeup huh? or skirts? and why is it attractive to draw black circles around ur eyes...rub mud colored greasy shit all over ur face to top it off with a bunch of dust? then take some purple shit and rub it on ur eyelids...take a pair of tweezers as rip ur eyebrow hairs by the root? i mean its all very very weird. and hairstyles. why is making a knoted mess (messy bun) "cute". i mean its just a tangled mass of dead protein.
oh and another thing...why is it cheaper to buy clothes than to buy fabric and supplies? i mean i was going to make a shirt because they had this nice fabric...but...the fabric cost 15 bucks a yard...and id prolly need that much since i need room to err...and i could find a shirt like it on clearance for about 5-8 dollars. sadly i wish uni offered home ec and shop classes. i like to do stuff with my hands i find it rather satisfying to be able to say yo bia i made this shiznit. or something to that effect.
ok have u guys noticed that multi-purpose things are no longer fashionable? and neither are shirts that are remotely covering whether its size or opaqueness (opacity?) i mean its all a damn ploy to make us buy more shit. thats why all these damn shirts are see thru. so u have to buy two damn shirts b4 u buy one. i mean what is this shit. what happened to nice high quality thick cotton? why does it all look like its been so worn out that its 30 some years old? then places like dry ice are based completely on the concept of oooo pretty useless stuff that no one actually needs. i mean why is a piece of soap with a plastic toy inside better? and who really needs a cell phone holder? couldnt u just errr set it on a table? and why to toilet brushes have to come with an attractive stand? arent they used to scrub ur shit off a toilet?? and these damn pearl tampons with their irredecent applicators. shit ur just shoving it up ur pussy who the hell cares if the applicator is pretty?

u know my attitude towards plastic surgery is like its ur body do what ud like. i mean if u were scarred in some accident u always have the choice getting a bit of help with the asthetic side and no one would look down on you. but then again what about someone that was born just really really ugly...isnt that once again not their fault..so wouldnt it be alright if they got plastic surgery neway? and what about those barbie dolls? so what if there completely plastic its their life right? well theres only only thing i have a problem with...ur gonna age one way or another so basically ur blowing thousands and thousands on thousands of dollars on something so vain..and its usually just to help your self esteem. to make u happier about urself. but wouldnt donating all that money you would spend on liposuction or a face lift be better spent helping hundreds of people dying of starvation or disease? wouldnt that make you feel alot better about urself? and that sort of spending actually does something at least mildly long lasting and life changing. and anyways isnt beauty in the eye of the beholder? whose more beautiful someone with a good heart or someone with a nice rack?
i guess its kind of like communism/ capitalism some ppl have alot while some have little or everyone has about the same. the only problem i see with communism is stagnation/greedy bastards who then have a WHOLE lot while everyone else is kind of screwed. btw i think bill gates should buy all the rain forests...i think he would do alot of good if he did that
have u ever noticed that some ppl seem to luck out in everything while other people are constantly screwed? or those extremely happy people while other ppl are always sad. u know sometimes i think it should all even out that way everyone is at least kind of happy, but then again wouldnt that take all the fun out of things if the world was homogenized. i mean there are some very very pretty ppl...and some very not so pretty ppl if everyone was kind of average life would be kind of dissapointing dont u think? so which is better? ups and downs or an even playing field

yeah time for me to babble some more. have any of you ever really wondered if all of the history we learn is completely and utterly made up as are all the other things we learn from these teachers? i mean what is education if not brainwashing and propaganda. we already know the chemistry we learn is wrong as is most of the physics we learn but we must memorize it anyway. these dates given to us are arbitrary, who are our teachers to be an authority on such things. so what if there were accounts that said this anything from that long ago could easily be misinterpreted or taken out of context. i mean its all about the he said she said bullshit. sry bout that i just had to. i mean how do our teachers know this stuff someone else told them. and before them someone else. its like a really professional way of playing telephone and if u kids learned anyting in elementary school things get fucked up along the line. i mean look at the rumor mill that is Highschool. things go from she sat next to him to she sat on him to she was straddling him to she was having dry sex and making out with him. and im not kidding. its all rather sad that we have nothing better to really talk about. i mean look at our yearbook people can remember each and every couple. its sad. very sad.
