Oh, shove it. Keep your "lil sis," your "mom," and your "fiance." I don't know why it irritates me so much. Perhaps it is because you are already irritating of your own accord. Maybe I want to claim those titles. And I definitely have more right to them. kthnxbai.
My dad sent me a valentine in the mail. It included a $10 check and the memo read, "For chocolate and ice cream." It was so sweet I almost wanted to cry.
Hope has HIV testing on campus for Black History Month. HILARIOUS.
I looked out on a world overrun with hatred and I closed my drapes, knowing I was the object of prejudice. I tried to communicate with people who find it easier to say, "I hate" than to think, "I love" and I was filled with despair. I turned my back on a world that had first turned its back on me by devaluing and overlooking the things and people I hold dear. But I could not fume forever because the world weeps too loudly for me to ignore. So I will venture forth to meet you as a person, rather than a stereotype. I will venture forth to challenge your preconceived notions and misconceptions. I will venture forth to change the way all people relate.
