chaoswolfI've heard people's opinions on these rants before, but I'm saying them again. Some of them are the same rants, some of them are new ones. I am not writing these as sympathy posts for people to take pity on me. Please let me rant as is my right in this LJ, but don't look behind the tags if you don't want to hear it. And to all my political pals who hate rants of politics, please don't read the rant on politics.
Homework is more than just a nightmare. It's a state of existence that consumes your time & your life in the respect that you won't be able to live how you want. I had no social life over the summer because I wasn't doing much: I didn't have friends in my area my own age to hang out with, and I mean no disrespect to any of my older friends who read this, but I do enjoy hanging out with kids within my age range. I didn't go out to a lot of movies, as I was either too poor or uninterested in a lot of the things we did. I wasn't gaming much, because most of the gamers are immature and assholes. I have been planning on homework for a while, finding things that might give me extra credit in certain classes, and trying very hard not to think about the fact that I had homework in my future......but I didn't seem to get it out of my mind.
Girlfriends. A beautiful thing. I really can't say anything negative about either one, but I do have just these two problems. One girlfriend: diabetic. The other: too far for me to reach. They will hold with me through thick & thin, and vise versa. One I'm not going to be able to see for another 3 months, and one will be starting school soon in SF and I won't be able to see her much at all. Not to mention she still has Rennaisance Fair between now & then, and I don't think that I will be seeing her much.......
It is my social life. But 18 units is a bit much....I don't think I can handle the load, so I'm going to drop Intro To Massage next week. It's a good class to take, and I know this....but I hate the instructor & I have allergies so bad I'm probably going to contaminate the office. I've never dropped a class before, so I don't know how it works, exactly. I was told it shouldn't be that difficult, but I am not sure how bad it is because everyone's different.
President Bush has been saying "He's not trying to put a rosy picture on Iraq." By the sound of it, that's exactly what he's doing. He says that we're winning. How many lives have been lost due to his arrogance? How many lives have been lost because of his stupidity? How many lives have been lost in this fruitless war? The only thing that's happened is that we've gotten Saddam Hussain out of power. That's about it. We haven't won Afghanistan, we haven't won Iraq, and I've got friends in the military I might never see again. One is going back to the sandbox known as Iraq in 6 months time, and I'm probably not going to hear from him during that time. Kerry says he will bring our troops home, and I'm more inclined to believe him. With Bush, our troops will be there for another century it seems.
That's all for now, I think.
