yay!
Today was a really good day. Track is fun now that I am not taking it so seriously. I have changed my approach towards it from "run only to win," to "run as hard as you can and still have fun." I now realize that I can only run as hard as my body will let me and I shouldn't kill myself over what I just cannot do. Makes me a much happier person. At the meet today I can the 3200 relay, mile, and 2 mile and was supposed to be done...but Hannah hurt her ankle really bad so i had to run the 1600 relay immediatley after I finished the 2 mile. My legs were shaking so bad after I was done, but it was still fun. I then went to half of the dance concert to see Vicki and my little sister, who I forgot had choreographed a dance. It was actually really good but I had to leave after the 6th or 7th dance. On a different note...I don't understand why people think my stance on feminism is so offensive or funny. People are either very offended by it or they find it hilarious, with a few exceptions like Augusta and Katlyn Stinson. How can men get offended when I just think that men and women are of equal intelligence and therefore should be treated that way? It's not like I think women should rule the world, just that we should have equal pay, equal opportunities, equal representation, equal respect, and the right to choose what we do with our own bodies. I find gender equality very logical. Why should a man be better than me just because he has a penis? Everyday I see sexism, racism, or just plain apathy towards other people's situations and I don't understand it. This world sure is a backward place...
