5yr old terrorist
The "gun" this little girl was "threatening" with is a plastic Hello Kitty gun that shoots bubbles. Thats right Bubbles. In my opinion the suspension is going to far. The girl is 5 years old and most likely doesnt even understand the concept of shooting someone to harm them. Most 5 year olds have trouble understanding death let alone harmful actions.
At that age kids are still learning about all of that. They are learning about how their actions and feelings affect other people. Learning how to use their words and be kind with their words.
I highly doubt the student she "threatened" was all broken up about it, crying to a teacher that this little girl threatened her with a gun, or was going to shoot her. In elementary school kids play game where they shoot each other all the time, no harm no foul. No one actually gets shot, or hurt or killed.
The school over reacted and blow things out of proportion. I could see them calling her parents and voicing their concerns in light of the Sandy Hook shooting and how her behavior or words were inappropriate. Sitting the girl down and talking to her about it. Not suspending her.
I threatened a girl in school once. I was in Junior High in California. I didn't even directly threaten this girl. I was in the locker room and stated that i wanted to shoot her (i didn't even say a name) in the face for every one of her freckles.(she had a lot of freckles). One of my friends who happened to be a mutual friend over heard me and asked who. I told her who. The next day i was called into the vice principles office and was suspended for a day,given 2 weeks detention,and i had to write the girl an apology. The girl who over heard me went home and told her mother what i said and she called the girls mother who then called the school and threw a fit.
Thats at the age of 13 that i was suspended a day and given detention, and the written apology. This little girl is 5 and she was suspended longer than i was.
Is this really what the world is coming to? that we are going to push kids who play shooting games?
What next? Are we going to stop manufacturing gun toys? water guns? super soakers? paint ball guns? bubble guns? suction cup dart guns?
We all just need to calm down with the gun thing. The girl was 5. Give her a break.
National Anthem Gone Wrong
There are exceptions there is a way to add your own flair without taking away the whole song, there's a way to add a sprinkle of your flair to the anthem without it sounding like your auditioning, or recording your new single.
I'm sorry and the presidential inauguration the only reason Beyonce sang was because she is black. Our president is black. Do you see the pattern?
If you sing the National Anthem correctly it causes chills, goosebumps, and a sudden rush of pride in your country. When its done right i can feel my heart in my chest, i get chills down my spine i get covered in goosebumps and i want to drape myself in an american flag running through the streets screaming at the top of my lungs that I'm proud to be an American.
May not be out anthem but its a national anthem done RIGHT!!!

Am I Getting Old??
Once we arrived at the theatre we got out tickets and our popcorn and drinks and went into our designated theatre after hearing the speech about how if he leave the theatre without our tickets we wont be aloud back in etc etc blah blah. We didn't get there late, we got there early. I always add time to the "start time" so it ends up later than advertised. I account the time for previews and stuff(which i must say, the previews time sure has shortened). We like to sit in the top row off to the left side(while facing the screen left side), and in the corner. We arrived and took our seats, not knowing we were going to see a pre-show within the audience before the movie started.
As we watched the theatre gradually fill up we saw a few different things. There were the uptight Hispanic girls in from of us, the over cocky Hispanic guys in front of them, the soccer team and their coaches, the obviously loud and easily annoyed black lady(didn't see her but heard her), and lastly the happy to fussy baby.
When we sat down there was this group of Hispanic guys, Id say they were in High School but im not sure which grade. Maybe sophmore or junior. They sat with their feet up on the chairs in front of them, throwing popcorn amongst themselves until a group of girls walks in. (those girls sat a few rows down from those guys on the opposite side of the theatre)
The group of Hispanic girls that came in Sat in the row directly in front of us. Now I wont lie, I am a very jealous girlfriend. I'll admit it I am. I didn't realize how much until this group of girls each took a turn turning around and looking at us(mostly at Yayo) with their "Oh i didn't know anyone was behind us" look. Then as their looks had begun to dissolve the girl sitting directly in front of me turns around and either gave me a mean ass bitch look or that was just how her face is on a regular basis. This group also felt the need to be photographers. Oh yes at the movies, they became photographers. Whether it was with their phone, or their friends phone, and yes folks even a camera or two they took about 20 pictures on each device. Now for every picture they took that blinded me half way i started to think about when Laina and i would go to the movies all the time. We would take pictures a little above our heads, especially if there was someone cute sitting behind us(Yes i'm jealous enough to think that's what was happening). They laughed and talked about the group of Hispanic guys sitting a row in front of them. They guys must have been listening because in unison as id they rehearsed they all jumped down a row of seats, and again in unison the girls all put their feet up on the chairs in front of them. Then we heard the conversation started by one girl asking her friend what time she had to be home. She said 9, and the movie started at 7:30 and was an hour and 40 minutes long. Good luck on meeting that curfew. Reminded me of when i was younger.
As the theatre began to get full a bigger group of about 20 girls all show up. They were very loud as they entered the theatre, talking about how they wanted to sit along the top row. They ended up about half way up and in the middle. After they scrambled to find their seats and decide who was sitting by who they began conversations amongst the groups of other people their age. About 5 minutes later their coaches arrive. An average looking female soccer coach, blonde in comfy looking wind pants and a soccer hoodie. The male coach followed her in, an average height white guy with a mister clean hair style. He looked like ex military but i could be wrong. She seemed as though she would rather be anywhere but there and he was having fun with it and cracked a few jokes here and there that made who ever heard it laugh.
The annoyed black girl didn't have any ones attention until the movie was starting and the audience was still in a medium roar of conversation and giggles. Once the movie started you began to hear the different ways to tell a group of people to hush up or be quiet. Don't start with the racial crap. Everyone know the loud black chick at the movies when you hear her. She was very persistent throughout the entire movie on shhh-ing people and making it known she wanted them quiet.
Throughout this movie, a great movie i'd say, the parts that scared people caused massive screams, and then laughter. I'm not sure why they laugh. Are they laughing at themselves for being scared enough to scream? Either way once the laughing began the loud black lady right on cue began shh-ing people and the be quiets began. All fine and dandy.
Towards the end of the movie, the last 20 minutes or so, you heard a baby. A BABY! Now my first question is, who in their right mind brings a baby to a movie like that? First we heard the coos and baby noises. Not to loud or continuous just a noise here and there. But once the baby started getting fussy, there was a problem. I don't like having kids get fussy and half crying or full on cry while im at the movies. I was a little aggitated when the parents of this fussy baby didn't leave, they waited out the last 30 min. Don't stay in a theatre if you baby is fussing and Don't bring your baby to a movie like that.
Being at that movie and seeing the high school girls and the high school guys, the young kids there with chaperone and the kids there that were not going to meet their curfews, made me think about how long ago i was in their place. I realized how annoying i was at that age, and how dumb i feel knowing i was like that once. But then i start to think about ten years from now, it will be ever weirder. Am i getting old? things have changed so much and some things haven't changed at all. Maybe I am getting old, but i don't feel old. Maybe its just the changes that make me feel that way.

Seriously Annoying
As an American i have to say that our leaders are fucking ignorant. Yes, i said it. I don't care about the dead American and I think our leaders are fuckin ignorant.
Over the last however many years we have heard and seen on the news all these different stories of Americans being killed, taken hostage, imprisoned and worse in all kinds of foreign countries. What no one ever makes clear, or states is that those countries HATE US.
They dont care is you are black, white, brown or purple with stripes. If you are an American then they hate you. Why do you think there are so many stories about it? They want us dead.
Every country we have been to in the last 10 years hates us. All the countries we are "helping", hate us. They don't want our help, if they did would they have attacked the embassy? Would they be killing or imprisoning tourists?
We,as a country need to stop focusing on "helping" these other countries that obviously don't want our help, and focus on helping ourselves!
Think about every problem our country is having. The economy,the 2nd amendment crap thats going on, the possible re-election of Obama, Obamacare, etc etc. Why are we not fixing our own problems first?
You cannot help those who cannot help themselves!
You cannot help those that do no want your help!
Ill step off my soap box now.
Sunny Beaches
When I go to the beach I don't focus on the people who are on the beach, I can just watch the waves, feel the breeze, listen to the waves crashing into the pier, the splashing from the kids, the laughter of pure happiness.
I have never been to the sunny beaches in Texas.
I have bee told about it, but never been to it.
I was told:
-the water isn't blue, its brown
-you can't surf
-if you go into the water deep enough you will get a ta line from where the water hits
All of these things, less than appealing.
I know, I'm being biased because I'm from California, and I grew up with those sunny beaches but, I don't care. I have never been to the beaches in Texas. I am not emotionally prepared to deal with the lack of amazement.
The beach was never just a beach. The beach has always been a place of tranquility, sanity, and peace.
I miss the beach, i miss feeling like there was nothing else in the world but the wonderful beach, the relaxing breezes and me.
Maybe, the sunny beaches here in Texas won't be that bad....Hopefully...

Bone To Pick
Then I think, well in today's movie world, you don't even have to have talent to be in movies.
I don't think Megan Fox is a good actress. I think she is famous because she is an average actress who happens to be hot. Now a days i think that's all it takes. As long as the actress or "wannabe" is hot, and catches the eye of many male viewers then it doesn't matter if she is a horrible actress or if the movie is horrible.
Many men will defend that the movie is good, or "she is a great actress". Come on, really? really? The only reason anybody with a penis watched "Bring It On" or "I Love You Beth Cooper" was because of the actresses, not the movie itself or the story line, just the actresses.
I boldly stated above that I don't think Megan Fox is a good actress, and I stand by that. Why was she famous to begin with? She was in transformers, a supportive roll. She became popular because she was the "hot" chick from the movie. In my opinion she doesn't look unique or anything. Average chick.
Today there are many good looking actresses who suck at their jobs. I don't know if i could name 10 actresses under 25 who are gorgeous/hot and talented.
Can you?
I can name a few actresses who i think are gorgeous/hot and talented but none of them are under 25.
Not in specific order:
Kate Beckinsale
Hedy Lamarr
Nicole Kidman
Claudette Colbert
Charlize Theron
Barbara Stanwyck
Marisa Tomei
Maggie Q
Rachel Weisz
Lana Turner
Rachel McAdams
Salma Hayek
Bette Davis
Maybe I'm too critical but I don't think the actresses such as Megan Fox and many others who are hot and untalented deserve the recognition they get, or the fame and fortune they get. Maybe they should put some of that fortune to use, go to some acting classes or something.

Another Shooting&More Gun BS
This past Thursday,January 10th, at Taft Union High School in California there was another shooting. A student entered the school with his brothers shotgun with ammo in his pockets. Its reported he targeted 2 students in particular. Do you want to guess why? Because they bullied him.
Staff on campus, a teacher and a staffer, were able to talk the student down, and he put the gun down and surrendered. 1 student is in critical condition and was airlifted, and 2 more were injured.
This is a direct quote from The Article About The Shooting:
President Obama has called for the creation of a task force, led by Vice President Joe Biden, to look at ways to prevent gun violence. The vice president is expected to present his findings by next Tuesday.Again the government is looking at this as gun violence. This isn't gun violence. This is an emotional high school student who was bullied to the point where he wanted to shoot the bullies, not gun violence.
Have you ever been bullied? Have you ever been bullied so much that you actually thought about shooting the bully? Plenty of us have. In high school everybody made somebodies life a living hell. I know for a fact there are a few people when i was in high school who wanted to shoot me, one to this day still wants to.
I would almost like to bet money that this shot gun having student is going to have some sort of mental illness or was off his meds. That's how things have been going with this tirade of gun violence events occurring everywhere.
Some unstable person off of their meds gets a gun and goes shooting up schools, then Obama steps in and says its gun violence.
Obama pull your head out of your ass, its not gun violence.
Does anyone actually know how long or how hard the process is in California to get a shot gun legally?
I know someone, in California, with an illegal shot gun.
It doesn't matter how hard the legal process it, or how long it takes. It doesn't matter how many laws you pass or how many obstacles you throw in front of people who are wanting a firearm, there will always be people with illegal firearms.
By making these laws, and difficult processes you are doing nothing but making it easier for the innocent law abiding citizens to get hurt or killed.
How long has Meth or Heroin been illegal?
Yet everyday there are millions of people dying from using. They are checking into rehabs or relapsing.
How about Marijuana?
Been illegal for a long time. Yet how many people are in jail for possession of marijuana?
Has our government just decided to walk around with its eyes closed? what puppet master is controlling this idiotic president we have?
Making something illegal or nearly impossible to get doesn't make it go away, or make the problems they cause go away. It makes them worse. It makes people more secretive to get it.
It didn't work with drugs, what makes anyone think that it will work with guns?

Prostitutes Further Education for World Cup
Prostitution is legal in Brazil.
Cida Vieira, president of the Association of Prostitutes in the city of Belo Horizonte, says that its important for the women to learn English, they need to know what turns their clients on and to let their clients know how much they charge.
The association is currently looking for volunteers to teach these classes. They wont have any problem with that. Vieira has already stated that there are already several volunteer psychologists and doctors helping them. They are now thinking about adding free French and Italian classes as well.
I say more power to them. If they are going to sign up for an 8 month course to learn a different language so they can be better at their jobs, good for them. That is dedication to the job if you ask me. They are furthering their education, and expanding their language abilities.
In the US it will be a big deal because it prostitutes but who cares? The only reason the story wont be all over the news is because the women are preparing for soccer events. In the US soccer is not a main priority, they'd rather suffocate us with basketball. I think its great that they are volunteering to learn English. Good for them. I applaud the effort.
Now any English speaking person that decides to go to Brazil for the Confederations Cup or the World cup (or both) wont have to ask a translator or use a translator to get some nookie while they are there. Cross your fingers, French and Italian speakers might get the same pleasure!
Twitter for Dummies
For those that don't have Twitter, or have it and don't use it. Twitter is just a faster version on Facebook.
Instead of "Likes" its "Favorites" and instead of "Sharing" its "Retweet".
On Facebook we "Tag" People in our posts, and pictures, well on Twitter you just put "@" in front of their username and it pretty much "tags" them in your tweet or "post".
On Facebook we "add" people to our friends list, which means they will show up in our "news feed" and we can see their profile etc etc. On Twitter its called "following". you can follow your friends, your favorite news channel, or your favorite musician(which if they started making music after the 90's they are not really musicians they are mostly artist or people who have more money than talent). Once you start following them they show up on your home page feed.
On twitter you can also create a "List" which is where you can pick certain people, or news channels and separate them from your regular feed. Its very helpful considering in a ten minute time period there could be 30 new tweets and you end up having to scroll forever to find who you were looking for.
Then of course there are the "Hash Tags" which to anyone who isn't brain dead its a damn number sign. For Twitter purposes it is just a way to categorize your tweet. you can search different hash tags to see what people are saying about that particular thing or subject. I'm writing this on a Wednesday so a "trending" hash tag is "#HappyHumpDay". All trending means is that its popular and that there are a lot of people talking about it.
AS for pictures on Twitter, you don't get to upload a million and two pictures to an album on your profile.. You get your profile picture. If you do upload a picture within your tweet it shows up as a twitter link and is then shown somewhere within your profile.
I hope this helps someone out there. I know plenty of people already know about twitter but i have been asked about some of the things above. Hope it was helpful :)

Shitty
Last night I was in so much pain. My head hurt so bad it felt like someone was trying to mash a softball or 2 through my eye and forehead. My joints felt like they were trying to give up and just shatter as I tried to lay still and finish watching raw. I had shooting pains in my legs,sides,arms and neck. Even after the soever,aspirin and endorphine rush I was still in way too much pain. Then I stayed up later than planned discussing/arguing/talking.(not a big deal I enjoy talking to him before going to sleep). After knowing all that,knowing I was in pain,and didn't feel good,he has the nerve to become obtuse with me this morning.
I understand that I do usualy wake up when he does to make him coffee and smoke a cigarette with him before he goes to work. This morning I wasn't even sure If i was going to be able to get up for my morning trip to the restroom let alone make coffee.
I didn't talk Much this morning. I was struggling to wake up. It felt like an impossible battle to even keep my eyes open let alone talk or make coffee. I understand when people need coffee. It was a household rule growing up to not ask my mother for anything until she had had at least 2cups of coffee. But if its such a necessity don't you think you could have put your big boy or big girl pants on and made it yourself?
All I think to myself is "yess massta I bees a good ninja". Bad reference but I don't care right now. Its almost 7am and I'm laying in bed pissed off, hurt, and half way offended. Not only did I apparently do something wrong I received one of those sarcastic "Thanks for the coffee" before he left. Oh trust me, if I wasn't mad at you when you woke me up, after saying that shit,you can bet your ass that I'm mad now. I'm mad enough that the throbbing in my knee and pain in my hip bone,head,eyes, and ear are not the only things keeping me up this morning. I almost wanted to be a spiteful,hateful girlfriend and go make some coffee now that my ass is laying here mad upset and in pain. All because I didn't wake up when he wanted me up to make him some coffee.
Not even coffee that requires a coffee pot, filters or anything extravagant. That's right folks instant coffee. Heat up some water,add a little milk or creamer and sugar(I add sugar and nesquick chocolate) then add coffee crystals and stir. I make it kinda backwards I guess but he drinks it so it much be at least ordinarily good.
We shall see how this day turns out. Its already off to a shitty start. I hope it doesn't end the same way.

Cover?
Singing is what i was good at, it was a huge passion of mine, and over the years it gradually slipped out of my life. Neither one of my parents take credit for me being musically inclined, and they both have no idea where i got it from.
with that said I think I'm going to do a cover, but I'm not sure which song yet. I dont want to embarrass myself. :/
I guess this is informational, and also a question. What song should i do?
I am both an alto and soprano. Not Christina or Mariah kinda soprano. i mean honestly how many people are?? :D
I'm super excited about doing this, and about getting back into singing and being the goofy random chick i was when Alaina and i were together all the time. I hate that we never saved the videos of us singing :/
So if you have any song suggestions let me know.
Not to me, Not from me but it hurts me.

Abortion, Sex Ed, Birth Control etc
In any case, I agree with the whole "it's her body, her choice". So i guess that means I'm pro-choice.
I think abortion is necessary. I think it gives us all something to argue about, something to help us decide on who to elect, on who we agree with or disagree with. I think the people who are so pro-life need to go the inner city, and highly populated cities and visit foster homes and group homes. Go look at all of the children there. Why not do something to help them?
So many children who live majority of their lives in the system will develop verbal,mental and social problems. Many will be physically and verbally abused, and neglected, but I don't see people with their signs demanding things for them! I don't see people throwing their bibles at the system or the abusive foster homes!
I know it's a touchy subject, because everyone and their mother knows someone who has had an abortion or who decided against having one or whatever. I get it, everyone knows someone who has dealt closely with abortion.
I don't care who this offends, or who decides to glow a gasket because of what I'm about to write.
I think we need to stop focusing so much attention on abortion and whether its right or wrong. Whether is ethically, religiously or morally wrong. We need to focus more on Sex Education.
Kids now a days are getting sex ed in elementary school. Think about that, elementary school. in elementary school my main focus was on beating Lauren and Taylor at Tetherball, doing a certain amount of flips on the monkey bars, passing my multiplication test so i could get a cherry on my ice cream sunday at the ice cream party(each number time table u passed on a timed test you got a piece of the ice cream sunday on the wall, at the end of a certain time period whatever was on your sunday was what u got at the ice cream party), not on sex. I thought boys were gross and mean. They were just kids i wanted to beat at football, and other sports. I used to kick them and beat them up for being so mean to girls. I had a crush once in elementary school, and to me a crush was just thinking he was nice and that i wanted him to be my friend and sit with me at lunch, be my partner on partner projects in class, play basketball with me, not to have sex with him or make babies.
Sex education should be more about the negative affects of sex than "its how babies are made" and the whole "if you have sex your going to hell". Show them pictures of different STD's. Show them the oozing graphic pictures of what their "junk" will look like. Tell them how painful some of the diseases can be. Emphasize that some of the things you get from having sex, you cant just wash off. Penicillin shots are painful(I got one when i was sick with an sinus infection and a virus and the other antibiotics i took for a week didn't make me better). Show them, hell scare them if that's what it takes. I know when i have kids I'm going to scare the crap out of them. I won't lie to them but i will scare them. "If you have sex you can get this STD and this STD and your junk will turn colors and hurt and look nasty".
We need to focus on making birth control more available to girls. Obviously condoms aren't working. making them more available, i believe, wont do anything. condoms have been available in bathrooms, doctors offices and free clinics for so many years now and yet we are still having this problem. Sell birth control over the counter but require them to talk to the pharmacist so they know how to use it properly. Inform them that if they are taking it, and start taking antibiotics that they can get pregnant(oh don't believe that? well my mom took birth control and antibiotics...and now I'm here writing this, so its true).
There also needs to be some blame on the parents. It's shouldn't be the schools responsibility to teach every child about sex, and what sex is, that's the parents job. School is a place for education, not sex ed. they are teachers not doctors. Kids are supposed to learn about their bodies and ask their parents questions, or their doctors, not their teachers. Most teachers when i was growing up, if they were asked a question like that they were told kindly that they should ask their parents. If they couldn't ask their parents they asked the school nurse or the health teacher. My health teacher in High School(required semester of health class) had a question box. it was passed around at the beginning of class and during class or at the end she would answer question, all asked anonymously. Some questions were about family problems, some asked for advice and a lot were sex questions or body questions. I still,to this day,feel its the parents responsibility to answer these questions for their kids. Come on parents take a little responsibility(like you always tell us kids) and be the adult, talk to your kids!!

Not My Dirty Laundry
What is marriage anyway? A piece of paper? A ring u wear on a specific finger?
I'm not anti-marriage. I want to get married one day, but I don't want to rush into it.
According to the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology, 50% of first marriages, 67% of second marriages and 74% of third marriages end in divorce. Now remind me again why everyone is in such a rush to get married??
Marriage is not something to be played with.
Wilt thou have this Man to thy wedded husband, to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of Matrimony? Wilt thou love him, comfort him, honour, and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all others, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?When you say "I do" After being asked whats above its a vow. Its not just words u agree to. Once these are said and you get your marriage license that doesn't mean you can get pissed off at your spouse and just up and decide to leave. You don't grab your stuff and disappear for a week and come back saying your sorry. You don't leave and say you want a divorce 3, 4, or 5 times within a year and then cry that he didn't fight for you, or make a scene for you. You are the ignorant one who decided to leave. You suck it up and work it out, you suck it up and deal with it. "running is the only thing i know" is not an excuse, it's a cop-out.
The fact that you left the first time, or even the second time shows that you are not serious about the commitment or the relationship.You hurt not only your spouse but everyone involved, their family, your family etc.Then after giving the final "I'm done i want a divorce" come crawling back and forth between your husband and an ex. By doing that you give your spouse the right to divorce you because you were unfaithful.
Weeks go by and things start to go bad with your ex, what do you do? You crawl back into your spouses life causing a tragic and heart wrenching incident that puts your spouses entire family on edge. Not just the family in the state but those out of state as well. "I didn't cause it" BULLSHIT!! You were talking to him about what happened. All of the bad. Putting all of the blame on him instead of on yourself. Its not shock that his family didn't want you informed, or there by his side.
Why would you be by his side? "Because he is my husband". Now he is, after he ends up in danger and fighting for his life. Why wasn't he your husband when you were banging your ex? Why wasn't he your husband when the thought of leaving came to mind? Why wasn't he your husband when you lied to everyone about living with your family when you left? He wasn't. You were using him, playing with his emotions. He cared more than you will ever know and more than he will ever show and you threw that away.
I know she will be pissed that i wrote this, but like she said to me "I was honest". I'm being honest now when I say the only reason I am nice to you, still talk to you or even kept you informed was because of a promise i made, and because of my dad. I promised if you two split up we would still be friends and against my better judgement i stayed your friend. Even when the only reason you talked to me was to ask questions about him. The only reason i kept you informed was because my dad told me to.
I find out they are getting back together. "This time till death". Isn't that the same promise you made when you got married? We will see how long it lasts this time.
Anyone reading please think about your choices. Getting married is not just something between you and the other person. It affects everyone around you, kids, friends, and family.
