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

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARE TRYING TO STEAL MY JOB, TAKE SCHOLARSHIPS FROM MY CHILDREN, AND MOVE NEXT DOOR TO ME!!!
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS ONE BIG SHAM OF A COUNTRY!!!!
There is no way that anyone in there right frame of mind would want to penalize people for coming here to better themselves and move away from the negativity in their own countries. For many people it is not easy to pass the citizenship test (http://www.freeuscitizenshiptest.com/us-citizenship-sample-test.html) More than half on Americans born and bred in the country couldn't answer some of these questions and quite frankly many other people (if we're basing things off of what's right and what's wrong) don't belong here themselves. There were inhabitants of this great land before 1493 when Columbus stole all he could see, they had homes, families, medicines, entertainment, and a way to live in HARMONY with the earth. The people who came here were the real barbarians...they didn't know how to clean themselves properly, they didn't know how to use the earth to grow crops, they didn't know anything about spices, and they killed for sport and wasted what was given to them. These people have long sense died after killing large populations of people with their diseases and bringing hoards of rats across the oceans to places that had never seen such vile creatures but there descendants still live here claiming they are the true Americans. Who the hell do you think you are? How can you move onto a land that is not yours, kill off the natives (or round them up and put them on reservations), steal people from another country bring them here forcibly and have them physically enslaved for hundreds of years then mentally enslaved for hundreds more, take out a sheet of paper write some raggedy rules on it sign it call it THE LAW. Then when somebody else comes along and uses your same tactics your stupid great great great great grandkids who apparently don't know the difference between a Nazi soldier and a union soldier come into power with the same raggedy piece of paper and act like they're so appalled by the behavior of the people trying to come here. These people are doing the dirtiest stankiest jobs for the smallest amount of pay...money you would pee on if it was on the floor of the bathroom stall you were in. They raise they're children to do better, get good educations so they can go back and help their friends and family get out of misery and woe TO RISE ABOVE THE FREAKIN POVERTY LINE and y'all are upset because you might have to drive your little merecedes s- class next to a man with a broken down hoopty, drivin down I-95 in an acur cuz he couldn't even afford the a to finish the word acura. If you're so concerened with illegal immigration get your lazy behind up of the couch and come clean the public toilets while on your hands and knees, come through the back door and mop my kitchen floors, work 14 hr shifts go to sleep for three then get up all over again to make 3 and 4 freakin dollars a day then complain that they're stealing from you. until then SHUT THE HELL UP!

TRY
In the silence she sits
unaware of any great change in the outside world
she begins to hit the end of her pencil against the metal rings of her notebook
if not for the need of something to do, then for the monotonous clanging sound its makin
breaths taken to ease her fears
not wanting to go back to the outside to here the cheers
teachers, parents, friends all complimenting but ever filling an unfulfillable void
or so it seems...
God she has, friends she has, love she feels
but the reel of her life played over and over and over presents new challenges
always ready to pursue the next step she stops to compare her past with her present and realizes
its actually much better
as she moves from her small space into a more comforting place she accepts her fate
not one full of dread or hills
but full of hope and thrills and as she heads for the door
searching for more, she acknowledges the world but stays clear of its
hooks and snares
ready to reach out and grab her at any time but she knows better than to straddle the fence
in life one must decide which side is best
and though the tests may seem large, there is always something bigger, better, and happier at the end of the road if you try.

Happy Valentine's Day...I (Think) I LOVE YOU
As men drenched in sweat run about making last minute arrangements for their partner of choice and women parade around in their sultriest clothing Valentine's Day once again comes with a sweet and still irritating hum to the ear. For people in committed relationships this is just one more day to show some love, for those who are not it's one big money spending, frosting filled orgy decked in red and sprinkled with glitter for good measure.
If Halloween is the one day of the year people can dress like skanks and get away with it, Valentine's Day is the one day they can dress and act like skanks and get away with it. Since there's no hallmark card for the stuff I have to say I'll address it all in this blog before my 11:00 organic chemistry class. Love is something I personally think should not be taken lightly, it should be respected and said with CAUTION. This day is not supposed to be about getting lots of notches in your belt from all the tail you snagged or about going to the club decked in red to find your soul mate, people really need to get over these wacked out holidays that only seek to get deeper and deeper into our pockets. Commercialized, prepackaged love is not love it's love and lies illegitimate baby. If I really love you I won't wait for the world to tell me to tell you, I'll do it everyday of every month of every year!
It disgusts me that so many people decide to find someone on this day for nothing more than cheap thrills and while high on hormones will decide to give their bodies to complete strangers who look great tonight but will look much worse in the morning. Relationships are about more than sex and all it's divergent cousins, it's about showing someone you care for them in every way possible above and beyond the penis and vagina. Intelligence, kindness, and compatibility in likes and lifestyle are things that make up relationships and in the end sex is just supposed to be a pleasant bonus. In all reality no one wants to spend the rest of their life with a whore (male or female), I wouldn't want to share a plate with more than one person so sharing an intimate partner is much much worse.
Gone are the days of real courting, taking time to get to know someone, sharing likes and dislikes, having arguments that turn somehow to agreements, and going through valleys that lead to unforeseen peaks. I realize that. As much as I would like to chase down that old timey way of expressing love I can't because it's too far removed from society's psyche. I can't stop the people who consciously make decisions that hurt people, professing love to get into someone's pants for a night then leaving without a glimmer of a chance for a future, but I can continue to keep my ideals, values, and standard of living so that when true love does come, it isn't tainted by a history of valentine's delusions and open legged "mistakes". HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
