First off, I wanted to make a quick comment here. I got a response from my previous political oriented entry. This person had a different opinion on the topic of abortion, and made some excellent points (though I stand by my pro-abortion stance). The thing is, this person seemed afraid that somehow her comments might [...]
If you’ve read my journal, by now you should all be familiar with my incredibly obsessive personality, as well as my tendency to get overly emotional when certain things strike a chord with me (gets teary-eyed during the final, mind-blowingly awesome race in “Speed Racer”, remember? ). Usually those two facets of my personality [...]
Wow! Lookie what I found folks! This is a real treat, for me at least. Somewhere, hidden in a Word file I never noticed till just now and just happened to accidentally click on, was a piece from my one of my first roleplays! This here is even before I joined Destinies Intertwined, and [...]
Sex and Violence in the Media
Another political one, though not as controversial as the others. Still, I think it deserves talking about, so here it is.
I won’t name names, but a lot of politicians out there are up in arms about the supposed “evils” of sex and violence in the media. Well, I know where [...]
I know, this isn’t so much a quote as an entire song. But the lyrics are so catchy and inspirational, I couldn’t just pick one string of it! So here is the song in its entirety. The song is called “Dare” by Stan Bush. Some of you geeks out there (such as myself) might recognize [...]
One word: Fudge. Sure, it might be fattening, but all it takes is a tiny piece. It’s like magic!
*goes to nibble on some fudge*
Here’s another controversial topic. Insert usual warning here.
Where does talk of sex belong in our schools? What exactly should be taught there? Well, I’ll be honest with you; kids aren’t stupid. I firmly believe that there comes a time when we need to start treating them like adults, and that time comes a lot earlier [...]
Let’s face it, somedays just suck. I’m on medication that for the most part keeps my moods pretty stable, but mood-swings are still a common thing I have to deal with in my life. There doesn’t have to be a reason for it, sometimes I just get depressed. Still, I’ve learned that you don’t have [...]
Here’s a quick break from politics folks. This is Cracked 13!
I’ll freely admit that I’m a big movie fan. Hell, I’ll watch my favorite flicks again and again if given the chance (when I first got “Superman: Doomsday”, I watched that baby 5 times in as many days). I’ve got a sizable DVD collection, a [...]
Here’s one I ran across while reading my new book, “Brisingr” (which I finished today, and I’ll be talking more about in an upcoming review of the “Inheritance” books by Christopher Paolini). I’ll avoid any spoilers for those who have yet to read it, other than to say that this is a quote spoken by [...]
