(no subject)
so i left school early today because stupid fucking kids like to have half-ass protests about shit they couldn't know less about.
other than the fact that they happen to be mexican and think that that gives them some kind of privilege to start commotion.
i just thought it was amusing seeing them run down the halls whistling and shouting about stuff they heard might sound good to say.
learn your shit and then try to "stick it to the man".
oh and by the way protesting with a little over 100 kids in some public high school that no one gives a shit about is not going to make a difference.
it's not like all of a sudden congress is going to say "hey look at these kids at colton high, they look like they mean business. We better change some things."
yea right. Get a clue.
and stop pulling fucking fire alarms it is annoying.
but thanks to them i am sitting at home, so that's cool.
it seems like lately a lot of people i know are trying to get out of life the easy way.
but there is no easy way, other then trying to get where you want in life (or atleast somewhere close).
Being a hippie and not having a job,
roaming the streets and hoping you will end up somewhere won't work either.
but maybe it's just me.
i mean does being a hippie really mean to not do anything.
because i talk to hippies everyday at work.
and they still have jobs and homes, but they just choose to be laid back and live life in a way they want.
mostly by consuming environmentally friendly products. =]
but that's off subject.
maybe it's just not me, i like having a job, getting a paycheck, and knowing i earned what i buy or the car i drive.
i think living on the streets is probably the opposite of what i want.
those people you see on venice beach with their dreads and acoustic guitars are still doing something with their life and not just hoping they will make enough dough to survive,
well actually some of them might be doing that but they are still doing something.
it makes me think of this time i was with Dawn, Janae, and the crew.
we were at the pier in santa cruz or something like that.
there was this guy with long dreads playing guitar and singing, he was really good.
i remember all he had was a crappy speaker hooked up to his guitar.
you could tell he didn't have much money.
but he still somehow had demos, which i'm sure he worked hard to get made.
so it just goes to show, even "hippies" who dont have homes to go to every night, work and do what they love to make a living somehow.
i got into a conversation with this old hippie lady at my work the other day.
she brought up the topic of work which was kind of ironic.
and i told her it seems like no matter what, you end up working in life.
you either get a desk job that doesn't take much schooling, or a construction job that doesn't really take any.
or you go to college after high school stay there for a long time and end up at a really nice job or doing something you love.
but either way you end up working for a living.
she said some things that made a lot of sense.
it's like why bother running from responsibility, you just have to face it.
i think i was just in the mood to write.
