Unexpected War Prevention

I admit with shame that I was not always that vocal about my position on the War in Iraq. I thought it was wrong, the reasoning behind it has changed more times than I've changed my hairstyle in my lifetime, and the only reason it's still going on is because we have a President who has too much pride.  Read More »

The Most "Open-Minded" are Unaccepting

Tagged:  •    •  

I've always been a rather open-minded person. I figure, you do your thing, I'll do mine, and if they don't mesh, so be it. I was so happy to get to college where other people like that existed. I immediately became friends with people who are into art and music and politics (none of which I've been traditionally involved with).  Read More »

The Absence of No-Condom Fear

Tagged:  •    •    •  

I was a virgin for 20 years which is a pretty big accomplishment. I don't think I'll ever regret my first time in terms of when, where, or who with. I don't think I even regret that we didn't use a condom because afterwards it was scary. It made us become responsible, deal with it, and come together because if something happened, it would affect both of us greatly.  Read More »

Life Changing Eight Counts

Tagged:  •    •    •    •  

When I entered high school, I was so shy that some of my friends later told me they honestly thought I was mute. Strangely enough, I loved to perform. I had been on a cheerleading team at my school before that, but my high school squad was terrible, and I wanted to perform competitively. Other girls who had had the same problem told me to try out for the dance team.  Read More »

Beauty Pageants Changing the World?

Okay, so I hated beauty pageants.  The concept behind them is despicable!  Lure young females in with scholarship money and make them prance around in a bathing suit.  I admit it, I fell for it.  I told myself that it was just proving my dedication to my education by going through this torture.  But after it was all over, I had to admit, the pageant had changed my life, and perhaps enabled  Read More »

What Does This Change?

Tagged:  •  

Alright, so here I am. It's 6 o'clock on a Thursday evening, and I am about to take a biology midterm. I hate biology, but due to my extreme interest in psychology, I am stuck in this God forsaken class. In general I find myself to be a pretty intelligent person, but not one person can make this completely understandable for me.  Read More »

What's Your True Dream?

Tagged:  •    •  

At what time was Santa no longer real?  When did my parents start hiding the baskets instead of the Easter bunny?  When did my dream of being a best-selling author/first female president die?  Read More »

Has Friendship Ever Stung You?

The other day religion came up with my roommate who I abosultely adore.  We disagreed on something, and she said something hurtful.  She probably didn't even realize that it hurt my feelings, but it did.  Now if you knew me, you would know that normally if someone said something to upset me I would've let them know it, and know it well.  I would have yelled and possibly walked out.  Read More »
