Well boys and girls...
I am back. It has been awhile, I nearly forgot that I had this blog. So here is what id going on in my jumbled up mind.
We had the first meeting of a parent advocacy group tonight. It left me excited that we have the capability to enact some change with in our schools. I was excited by the turn out and excited that all of the leg work and planning paid of.
On the other hand I was also enraged. Enraged to hear that a room full of parents have had to fight tooth and nail to get the things that they need to make sure their children have a positive educational experience. I am sure that all you people are sick of hearing me rant about the state of public school, but I will say it again. It is a god damned shame. Our kids need to have a program that makes them feel supported and encouraged. Where is it at? We are to busy "teaching to the test" to teach our children. It is a travesty of justice.
Also as you all know I am an Obama supporter. I have been fired up. I have talked to people, I have made calls and I have sat outside of Stop and Shop to rev for my guy. But I am just damn sick of the democratic primaries at this point. Hillary is like that guest that is at a party and everyone else is ready to go home and she just keeps on talking. Go home Hillary. Let me rest because I am tired.
I am also thinking that it is time that we as free citizens start protesting again. Our generation is lazy. We need to hit the streets and let people know that we are enraged on a variety of issues. We have had enough and it is time that we let people know it.
alright.

i agree. fuckers are just so damn complacent, everyone has their ps3 and a fish sammich from mcdonald's and noone really cares about well........anything.
sometimes i feel very hopeful, as if all the cool fuckers i know will actually change the tide, and then sometimes i feel like no one gives a fuck about right or wrong, about a better way. people want their air-conditioning and asprin, and they just don't want to be bothered. ok - this is becoming dangerously close to an i hate the human race rant. really i don't. i love us. i am amazed,(and saddened) by us. but i undoubtedly believe in us.
I am not sure why it seems so hard for us to unite. but then again. that is how they want us. DOES ANYONE REALIZE THAT WE ARE THIS SYSTEM THAT WE ALL HATE SO MUCH. we make it fuckin tick......we are the system. if we all just grew our own food, and bartered, and home-schooled, and didn't pay taxes, then the goverment would not exist. Then tribal wars would exist. Hey, you can't have your cake and eat it to. It seems no matter how we set things up, human beings will find some shit to argue and kill eachother over. This is sad, and curt. But it is true. I have come to the sad conclusion that the world is too populated to return to any sort of semblance of order. That is my story, I'm stickin to it!
On another note. ,......
How bout that bio-diesel????
I told ya'll that shit wasn't a good idea.
I'm off to bed. sorry for the obscenely long blog comment.
and you are right. fair is fair after all
Oh I feel you. There are moments where I am incredibly energized by things that happened and i believe that people are going to stand up and use their voices. There are also moments where I am am saddened by the lack of action that I see from my peers. I am throwing out the Margaret Mead quote. Never doubt the power of a small dedicated group of people to change the world. In fact it is the only thing that ever has.
So I guess I just need to keep pushing all the cool people that I know to stay engaged.
Get ready for a wild summer
