(no subject)
wow, i cant believe its been a week since i wrote last! its not right, yo.
sinve ive been having issues coming up with a topic, this is the best i could do. so shut up.
lately ive seen a string of obnoxious jewelry commercials. they make me puke. seriously--they are so sick.
they all show the same thing---a guy presenting his girlfriend or wife with some huge rock and the girl is all "bagawwwwwww how amazing you got me JEWELRY! now i know how much you REALLY love me!!!! *tear tear*
this is where i puke. are you KIDDING ME? come ON. the sad thing is, i know toooooo many girls that think jewelry is the only way a guy can truly show his "love". it makes me so sad. its a fucking rock yo..for serious. whats so great about jewelry? sure, a quality piece will last just about forever. thats cool about it. i realize its an investment, but when people place that much importance on material goods it makes my stomach turn.
in the past, not many guys have gotten me jewelry as a gift. when they did, i didnt wear it. my first experience with jewelry wasnt good--i felt as though the guy was attempting to buy me. it was his way of showing me that i was his whether i liked it or not because he "got me everything". im not a big jewelry girl---i really only wear stuff for special occasions, and even then its the cheapest stuff in the store. whatever guy ends up gettin me for life is gonna get off real easy. id be likely to put a $30 maximum on any rings i wear. im prone to losing them and its not worth putting all that money into something like that. id rather put it elsewhere--like into a house or something.
and i guess that leads to me thinking about originality in gift giving in general---with valentines day around the corner there are not only those jewelry commercials, but chocolate commercials and stuffed animals and hallmark cards. ug! its so sad how commercial we all are. it seems like theres no one out there that can come up with a better way to show someone you're thinking about them than with flowers, chocolates, stuffed animals or jewelry. its been done, folks. so a note to all guys -- if i find out you got your gfs or wives any of that shit im gonna puke k? even if they like it. then ill puke again for their lack of standards.
id insert many ideas here as to what would provide a great valentines day for a non traditional girl such as myself here, but then that would ruin the whole idea of using the one thing that will get you everywhere:
thought.
seriously people--if you cant figure out what would work better than the above mentioned overdone gifts, then you dont know your partner really well. maybe getting to know them would be the best gift.
ok im done bitching about that. id go on about valentines day in general but i think you all get the idea. and id also assume that most people think its a bunch of bullshit anyway. seems like most people dont even know what valentines day is actually celebrating.
my next bitch will be about taxes and how much i might be paying this year into them because of a mistake on mine and my dad's part....if i pay as much as it stands now im screwed 3 times over literally :) should be fun. ill spare yall for now tho. besides, what will i do on my days off if not bitch in my journal?
ps...wtf is my icon doing? its a good mood--wtf does that have to do with a purple box with a red cross on it? im confused. am i missing something?
