Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm, life
isn't always fair, and maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn) and reliable parenting strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job they themselves failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Panadol, sun-lotion or a Band-Aid to a student - but could not inform the parents when a student became pregnant and
wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband, churches became businesses, and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar can sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by three stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else is to Blame, and I'm A Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing
SO... this weekend was AWSOME!!!! I was gonna go to Bloodfest (a rave) this weekend, but my mom wouldn't let me. It's all good though, because I hung out with my boyfriend. Saterday and Sunday I went to Hallowicked!!! For those of you that don't know, that's an ICP concert! Saturday I got my first Faygo shower from my friend Ezra!!! It was also Shaggy's b-day! We got to see a cake smashed on his head! Saterday was fun, because of all the people who showed up, but Sunday's show was way better!!! I got soaked in Faygo, and i got to be closer to the stage, bacause there weren't as many people! I got to spend my entire weekend with my boy havin' fun!!! It was great!!! Today was his birthday!!! I had to go to school in the morning, but as soon as i got out i went to get him. We went to dinner and then to see a friend whom we haven't seen in forever!!! I think that's it for now...
So this morning kinda sucked!!! I had a test in psychology that i didn't know about, and i'm pretty sure i failed it! :'( I have so much stuff to do before this weekend and Halloween, but when i get it all done it's gonna be awsome. I'm making 3 costumes, 1 for Fri night and 2 for Halloween. The two for Halloween are gonna be a butterfly and a cat. I don't know about for this weekend, but I need to figure it out fast.
I also need to plan something for my boyfriends b-day which is monday. This weekend we're gonna go to a rave and a concert, but i can't think of anything for monday...
Anywayz... i'm gonna go get ready to hang out w/ friends
Bye Bye
So... this weekend was really fun! Fri me Garion Kat Susan and Ezra all went to Rocky (for the 4th time) I don't really like Susan all that much, but she's fun to hang out with. It was so much fun! I know someone there named Lucky, who had the coolest hair. If you wanna see it go to fetishfalls.com. She's the one in the pics! I also made another friend named Kandie Randie! He's going Bloodfest this weekend, which i will also be going to. I'm gonna get married (if Garion agrees)!!!
After Rocky wasn't all that great... after we dropped off Ezra, we were driving home and we saw two drunk drivers in front of us. One of them almost hit a truck trying to leave the freeway. I hate people who drink and drive!!! After that we dropped Susan off and went to Dennys to hang out w/ people.
Kat and Garion stayed at my house and i got no sleep. I had to do a yard sale in the morning... it wasn't fun! We went to Dennys for breakfast after that and i was falling asleep at the table.
The only other thing i remember from the weekend was the Rocky cast meeting. I wan't supposed to be there, so i got to hold the camera and film the metting. I think that was the first time i had ever used a video camera. Needless to say i did a horrible job.
Yesterday was really fun! I hung out w/ my bff Sarah, and we went to go visit my ex, Travis. We had an awsome time just sitting around remembering the stupid and fun shit we used to do.
WOW!!! This weekend kinda sucked. I got about 6 hours in 2 1/2 days. Friday was Rocky, and I made friends and talked to people before the show, but during the show i was kinda bored and didn't have anyone to talk to. I then slept in my car outside my bf's house for about an hour, cuz his parents said i couldn't stay the night. We went to my house after that hour, and for some reason, his parents didn't count that as me staying at his house or him staying at my house. Then i went to Edgefest, which really sucked. They only had a few good bands this year, the parking sucked, and i couldn't go into any of the mosh pits. We left 4 or 5 hours early and then we had to sit and wait for the end anyways cuz my sister's car was blocked in. She was parallel parked and some asshole came and parked next to he so she couldn't get out. We called the cops, and sat there forever. After the guy came and moved his car we called the cops back and it turns out they showed up and didn't tell us. How nice huh?!? That was pretty much how my weekend went. I went through about 2 packs of cigarettes, and $40 not including the concert tickets. Today was really boring, i sat around my house and watched t.v. I'm kinda peeved at my boyfriend as well. i think i'm done ranting for now... i'm gonna go to bed, cuz i'm hella tired. Thanks for reading if u made it all the way down here... night.
