Well I certainly had fun this weekend at the National Conservation Training Center, taking pictures, learning new things, and catching frogs at twilight hours. Lots of great food, lots of cool people, but one weird guy...ahaha....yeah Vlad I'm talking bought you kid. I've known him for a couple months now but never in my wildest imagination would I have thought that he has an alter ego....a alter creole ego... accent and all. I of course planned to come in, have normal fun, talk to people as myself, and maybe even make a friend or two but my goodness not with a lie lol.
As the people began to arrive out came this half African sounding, half French sounding accent, and in between being with the crowds of adoring fans who had questions galore for the new Frenchman, plenty of slip ups. Lots of inny-outy-half crazy-non funny stories told in half accent to appease the haha needs of the others. To my surprise he actually kept the act going, and even as I sit here staring at his lying face chewing on a dirty piece of grass from the semi polluted wilderness trail I half to laugh. Truly a hilarious adventure which is sure to have way more repercussions when people try to catch up with him. When maybe people want to I don't know...TALK to him later down the line. We'll see how it turns out but for now he'll just be the butt of lots and lots of jokes for weeks...hell maybe even months to come.

J. CREW, Mommies, and Boys with Pink Nail Polish
Once again Yahoo has sent my alarm bells ringing this morning. It featured an article about an ad showing J.Crew president and creative director Jenna spending a day with her son Beckett who just happens to like pink (my fav. color so he's already alright in my book). Unfortunately the article wasn't about anything happy, it talked about criticism from Fox "News" (why are we still taking them seriously?) and some woman named Erin Brown(never heard of her or the Media Research Center even though they claim to be "America's Media Watchdog") about how the ad was some sort of liberal propaganda about transgendered identity.
-_________________________-
HERE WE GO AGAIN! I take offense to this garbage first from the horses mouths and secondly from Yahoo, I didn't want to check my email and feel like I was getting gut checked by a rugby player. This little boy looks to be about four or five years old so first of all, as I stated in an earlier post about the "Princess Boy", children this young don't know if they are boys, girls, cucumbers, or rocks, they know nothing about sexual preferences, and I know that most of them can't even pronounce TRANSGENDERED.
This little boy is spending time with his mommy, getting his nails painted, and they look like they're having a blast. Now thanks to some nimrods who have nothing better to do, he will hear about these comments long after the age of five. I don't quite understand what makes grown people (who I'm guessing were raised by someone) target an ad that was actually wholesome, yet allow millions of Americans be bombarded by the soft porn covers of Maxim, Playboy, et. al. while they keep on rollin in the dough. All of these people (I'm sure) at one point or another whether male or female, worn their mom's heels, their dad's tie, or tried on some lipstick (or fingernail polish) for the fun of it.
Just because someone is famous doesn't mean they don't have feelings, doesn't mean they don't care about their children, and believe it or not everything is NOT about politics. It's sad that the people who need to hear this won't and if they do won't be receptive to it because they're so wrapped up in themselves to see how THEY are the ones hurting America, by causing separation instead of unification. No matter what someone else believes is right or wrong as a parent, at the end of the day, their opinion is all that matters. I support little Beckett and his mom Jenna and hope that none of this goes any further than it actually has to and I'll continue to buy and wear my pink nail polish in solidarity :)

Delicious People, Deceptive Minds, and Dangerous Choices
Mmmmmmm.....We all have a couple of people in our circles that conjure up visions of chocolaty, caramel, whip cream topped bliss even though they shouldn't...because they're people lol. While certain people can simply be enticing by nature and not even know they exude deliciousness it is important to be forewarned of those who KNOW their state of deliciousness.
There are many people that are really ignorant of the way they appeal to others. They go about their day like the rest of us, sometimes happy, sometimes with a feeling of defeat, but at the end of the day feeling normal and wanting to somehow change that in the future. These people can be fun to be around, but then they also have their days that make you (as a friend, significant other, associate) want to learn how to build a guillotine just to watch their head roll....or maybe that's just me...but that's besides the point. Even when they are annoying they still somehow attract you to them which has a 50% chance of being a suckish relationship but if you work it right there's also a 50% chance of it being a pretty freakin awesome relationship.
HOWEVER
There are those who, as I stated before, know what they look like. This could quite possibly be because of an increase in reflective materials in their homes as a child or thirsty folk blowin their heads outta proportion later in life. These people are DANGEROUS. They are always on the prowl, have crazy mind game tricks up their sleeves, and they don't play fair. Sure you can pretend to ignore them, but unfortunately like a raccoon to your full and perfectly tied trash bag, attraction is inevitable. If you're strong you don't have to stop talking to the person, you must simply learn the art of saying no. Stay within your boundaries and make your body succumb to a state of normalcy and not to some over sexual, tripped out, lust factory. For those of you who are weak (you are reading this, no one else knows you're reading this, but you know I'm talkin to you) get outta dodge NOW! Don't wait for your body to become your lord, take control while you still can. Maybe you can't handle being at his house, or the movies, or his really psychedelic van with the cool colored carpet in the back lest you make foolish mistakes and "forget" your morals. It's ok. Lots of people can't handle being around delicious folk. BUT If you still want to hang out stay in brightly lit spaces, around at least two other people, or in public (still bright) areas. The brightness will remind you to keep yourself out of the lust bucket and other people will make you self conscious so you don't suddenly become a skank.
Don't fall into the trap, stay focused, and you'll be happier in the long run.

Lead Codices Found....Christianity's Claims Could be Proven!!! QUE???!!! LET THE ZEALOTS RISE!
Alright so yesterday I stumbled upon an article that says 20 or more lead codices were found in Jordan about five years ago and they could hold the answers to Jesus's last days on earth. The claim is that the codices are over 2,000 years old and if proven to be authentic then Christians could finally be happy because they have proof. I won't name the article lest I be sued, but saying such things are seriously ridiculous. Anyone who knows anything about faith should understand that Christians don't need proof to have faith, that defeats the whole purpose of belief (eg. I don't need to believe flowers are real, they are real because I can see them). Aside from reading the article I also like to read the comments section because it proves to me that mankind is vastly immature along with the fact that religious zealot vs. non religious zealot arguments tickle me.
I'm not quite sure why people decide to comment on every article that makes mention of a religion or of a religious find just to argue, do these people have lives, are they secure in their own beliefs (or lack thereof, which is technically a belief in and of itself), and do they honestly think that putting people down for any reason makes them look intelligent? I am a Christian, yes, many of you know that by now but I respect all beliefs. If you're an atheist that's your CHOICE, if you're a Christian that's your CHOICE. Having anger fueled, full fledged, and threatening arguments is not cool AT ALL. If you want to debate, join a debate team, look up mock trials in your area, let it out somewhere else but please leave your ignorance by the wayside when you do. When it all boils down you have not proven anything, you can't say what happened because you were not alive, you can't deny miracles simply because you haven't seen them, and you can't prove to an unbeliever that God is real. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and no one will know who's right until the end, so get over yourselves and stop fighting for no reason. Thanks :)

CHRIS BROWN...SOMEBODY GIVE THAT MAN A PACIFIER!
I like many young women remember the beginning of Chris Brown...his lullaby like voice, his cute but messed up teeth, and the beautiful curvature of that body whoops ummm....face of his. I had his songs, posters, paid my money to see him live and kept close tabs on the brother. Unfortunately in keeping close tabs I think by now we've all realized he has some serious issues....(glad I didn't send that marriage proposal lol) His abusive nature and his serious anger problems are constantly keeping the media on and poppin while we watch to see how long he can run it from the law. It's been two years since his break out role on TMZ in the smash hit called Rihanna's Face and now as of two days ago yet another smash hit called Window of GMA: A Time's Sqaure Event.
I was under the impression that he had sought out counseling and had resolved his issues but of course Hollywood isn't the best place to stay if that's to happen. People will always (as my best friend pointed out to me yesterday) relate Chris with the events surrounding Rihanna, just like they'll always relate Whitney to the cocaine surrounding her nose....I mean the events surrounding her cocaine use lol. I hope and pray that that man gets help because he is so talented and completely beautiful on the outside, but with a messed up inside he isn't worth very much. When he returns a new man we'll be runnin from Wall to Wall because there's never a right time to Say Goodbye to one of our favorite artists. and though we'll never be able to take him down for a quick Kiss Kiss he'll Forever Crawl into our memories until the Psychiatrist says "I can transform ya" in autotune and he's the old Chris we first knew and loved. Even if he was just a pissy boy from Tappahannock...DEUCES :)

****SPOILER****PRETTY LITTLE LIARS SEASON FINALE
Ok so PLL is getting intense...week after week I watch the show and hope that something new will perk my interest and it never fails... a few questions after watching the finale...
1. Is Ian really dead?- I sure hope so because he was rude, obnoxious, and totally wrong for everything he's done. But that crosses him off the list of being A now doesn't it.
2. Is anyone gonna catch on to Mona and whip her behind? I seriously think she needs to be taught a lesson, she has no right interfering in other people's business especially not their love affairs.
3. Lucas to the rescue? I know the dude is in love with Hanna but he can't be that nice, we'll see what happens next season for sure (I wasn't even aware Lucas knew Caleb like that)
4. Melissa better lose that baby! sorry that's not a question but it's def for her own good, and by the by there's no way that accident was an accident
5. A has to be a dude, we've seen his body frame to may times now and I def think it's that creepy dude who tried to get Ezra to give him an A, why else does he keep appearing?
6. Jenna and Garrett? what could she possibly see in him lol jk...but seriously why are they together and why is Garrett such a loser!?
7. Will Aria and Ezra's relationship survive after he moves to Hollis? there's no way that can turn out well with his EX FIANCÉE being there!
Gotta Secret? I totally know because I've been reading the blogs for the books and matching them up to the shows...I'LL NEVER TELL

Tsunamis, Asians, Telephones, and BOTTLED BLONDE BIMBOS...
So over the weekend my friend (J.H.Y) posted a video on my Facebook page that I found disgusting for multiple reasons. I have always been a proponent of free speech, I accept people for their beliefs, their way of life, and I try not to comment on the things stupid people say, HOWEVER, today I must make an exception. Alexandra Wallace a young political science major at UCLA posted a video rant on Asians in the library, when her actual point, one that is much broader and way less racist was that folks shouldn't be talking loudly on the phone in the library. While I certainly agree that students should respect quiet study spaces, I DO NOT AGREE with the foolish and disrespectful manner in which Ms.(she doesn't deserve a title here we'll just call her wally) Wallace presented herself in her video.
In one fell swoop she went from identifying with just about every student who's ever sat in a library to identifying with a significantly smaller group of people who spread hate like gooseberry jam on a morning croissant. First she identifies herself as an "AMERICAN".....what's that supposed to mean? People can be American and not be white honey get over yourself. She says her mama raised her to not be rude....did she hear herself..that was plenty rude ma'am. Wally then goes on to say that Asian people always have there family over on the weekends to cook, clean, and do other chores for their children because they don't know how to do it themselves...I'm sure that was just jealousy first off and secondly she probably doesn't do much herself except buy blonde hair dye and waste her money on color coordinated push up bras... She then goes on to make fun of their dialect and language with a very well thought out terribly executed disaster of an accented sentence ching chong ling long ting tong....really do all their words rhyme like that? Finally she hits a home run when she says their probably all checking n family from "that tsunami thing" ...as if 1. A tsunami is not a disaster that claims lives and family should not be checked on and more disturbingly 2. she thinks ALL ASIAN PEOPLE ARE FROM JAPAN.... YIKES!! how did this girl even get into college thinking like this. I can't go on because then I'll just start to be rude myself so here's the video's link if you didn't already watch it above... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lg3tIERI-D4&feature=player_embedded
