Gay, Straight, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning. We All Live As One.

Gay, straight, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, questioning. We all live as one.

I think it is absolutely ridiculous that someone can hate someone because of their sexuality. What gives you the right to tell someone that they aren't good enough? They are people just like you. If you are saying horrible, demeaning, homophobic things to homosexuals then you are less than a person in my mind. You are a waste of space.

One of the most common assumptions i see is "You support gay rights? ARE YOU GAY?" Let me just say this. "You support animal rights? ARE YOU ANIMAL?" Does that make more sense? You don't need to be homosexual to support gay rights just like you aren't an animal if you support animal rights.

Gay rights, or should I just say rights because they are human, just like the rest of us. This is a holocaust. People are taking the rights away from people. People are dying.

Because of bullying, homosexual teens have been committing suicide. The most recent suicide was Jamey Rodemeyer who lived in Buffalo N.Y. He was only 14 years old. He was a freshman in high school and he had been bullied since he came out. A week before he hung himself he posted on his blog "I always say how bullied I am, but no one ever listens... What do I have to do so people will listen to me?" If this isn't a cry for help I don't know what is. Why did no one help him though?  How can the world be that selfish?  I feel bad for Jamey, if he had to go through tons of crap because he was interested in men instead of women. Imagine your life being so bad that the best option you saw was to kill yourself. Before Jamey killed himself he wrote "@ladygaga by mother monster, thank you for all you have done, paws up forever"

This is Jamey Rodemeyer, he died 9.19.11
Think about what you say before you say it. Remember one word can scar someones heart for the rest of their life.

Just Great...

Ever have one of those fantastic days when everything goes right and you feel like a super star?  When you walk down the hallway you're like bitches look at this awesomeness! Well today wasn't one of those days.

Ever notice how parents only look at how bad you're doing and they don't mention the good? Or is that just mine? I'm getting a 106% at tech campus (I know pro) which counts as 3 of my grades.  But then there Is sweet ol' American Studies.  Do you know you can't drop that class? Trust me I've tried.  And I'll try again. It isn't that I don't like the teachers. Don't get me wrong they are great.  It is just that English has never been my subject.  So when I signed up for the class I was hoping my mad History skills would even out my not so fantastic English skills. Anyways I'm getting a D in the class... Maybe an F I'm not even sure what my grade is.

"Wait Joe why is your grade so low?!?!" -Mr. Guy
"Well Mr. Guy I had to write an English essay that related to my summer reading book 'The Help'. I didn't follow the guide lines, and maybe I went a little to far but I believe my essay was flawless.  Well except the fact that it wasn't on the subject, but it was on MY subject.  What matters to me, and that is all I'm concerned about." -Joe
"Well Joe did you at least get some credit for writing that flawless essay of yours?" -Mr. Guy
"Well as disappointed as I am to say, my beautiful essay did not receive a grade.  It was marked with an outstanding 0/40" -Joe

  Anyways my parents know that I'm not doing well in it.  So one more question.  When you do something wrong do your parents come up with a ridiculous reason of why you might have done it?  Mine do.  Today I had the pleasure of sitting down with my parents while they tried to find out if I was dyslexic.  I had a ton of fun.

This is what's up.  I have trouble writing on a told subject, that is why I kinda like the blogs because I can write about whatever I want to. I know I'm whining but I'm 100% sure other people can relate.  That is the point of these right?  To write something that me and other people can relate to?  That is easy for me.  Relating things to a book on the other hand?  Jump on my back and drown me in a pool... of course metaphorically speaking.  My brain goes dead when I have to do something I don't particularly want to do, it is a natural instinct.  Not a good one.  It happens though.

If you're reading this and none of this relates to you what so ever.
Then Welcome To My Life.

So Life Kinda Sucks Right Now... On The Bright Side...

As the title says. Life kinda sucks right now.  School, Parents, Work.  You can't have all three.  Everything collides! Anyways on the brighter side I'm going to be able to go to my first football game this year because Jewel isn't working me 8 hours on Friday this week.  Of course they put those hours on Wednesday so I missed Powder Puff but I guess not everything can work out.  Jewel also has me working early morning Sunday even though I requested Sunday off so I can stay out late after Homecoming... I need to find a new job.
Anyways maybe I should just work during summer.  It is really to much with school.  I'll have three nights in a row where it is impossible for me to do homework because as soon as I get home from school I go straight to work and come home at 10.  Lucky me I got off at 9:30 today.
And my parents. My parents. Don't get me started.  When I get home from school they act like I wasn't doing anything for 7 hours.  They have chores lined up for me the minute I walk into the door.  It doesn't matter If I have to work they will just stack it up for the next day.  Then they wanted me to request of all these random days of work so that I could drive my sister around since they won't be home those day.  That's just what I wanted to do.  I know my parents aren't really that bad but I am just stressed with all this stuff.

So it comes down to this.
1. Quit/take a leave from my job in till summer.
2. Kill my parents and hide them under the floor boards.
3. Stop showing up to school.
 I think we all know the answer.  Number 1.
Naturally I wouldn't thinking quitting my job is a good idea, but it is conflicting with school which determines my future. Psh life why you gotta be so wild.

I feel like I should give a shout out to my two followers.. it just feels right.
So Thank you Caitlin and Mr. Farrell.  Woot Woot! Accept for the fact Mr. Farrell HAD to follow me.  But that still deserves a shout out!

Traffic Sucks

Traffic Sucks.  I sat in it for half an hour today while eating "Wisconsin Mac N' Cheese" from Noodles Inc.  I had just gone to Michaels with Sarah and bought tie-dye Duct Tape, yarn, and tie-dye stuff ( Like the dye for shirts). We were listening to Rihanna's song "Here's To The Freakin Weekend." We started to rant about how Rihanna is a complete $&@ for messing up the song "I'm With You" by Avril Lavigne... well at least the part of the bridge.  Any way that put us on the subject about how artists these days need to be more creative.  And I'm not talking about Ke$ha's rap yodeling creative.  Last year artists remixed old songs like "Forever Young" and "Blue" by adding some crappy rap about drugs, sex, and alcohol.
When I got home with Sarah my sister was nice to me for once?  I don't know if she is feeling well but I think she ... SHE JUST THREW A BOTTLE CAP AT ME BECAUSE I WAS READING THIS OUT LOUD AND SAID THAT SHE SMELLED. I was only kidding though. Kinda.  No really. She smells fine.  Sarah has to be home in 9 minutes but she is being a rebel... And there is kinda no way I can get her home in time because I need to take my sister to Religious Education in 8 minutes. Which is like a twenty minute drive there with all this traffic.  My sister just burped... NOW THAT SMELLED! If it counts she said excuse me... although that doesn't make the smell any better.
Anyways... we have 48 days until Halloween, 103 till Christmas, 208 till Easter, and 154 till Valentine's Day. Sarah is scraping at the bottom of her soup bowl, and ranting about my horrible grammar.  I have to leave in 3 minutes... But I'm not sure if I'm close to a page yet... or what a page is considered.
Can post accumulate to over a page? Bye for now... ish.  Ummm Yeah...

I'm Sitting Next To Justin

I'm sitting next to Justin in class while writeing this blog.  Infact he is helping me write it.  Ummm yeah.
