Something that gives me the lolz: when you type "dictionary.com" "dictonary.com", the first link you can click on is a spellchcek website.

Anyways everything is cool, same old, same old. Work is going well, I'm surprised I haven't developed an eating disorder from the amount of emaciated bitches who come into my job, moaning about non-existant love handles and I stand there in all my thickness having to convince them that no, they aren't fat, you are a waif, you're a perfect size 2.

What I am lacking in an eating disorder, I make up with misanthropic tendencies.

But in all seriousness (and a bit of biting sarcasm), I do enjoy my work, I do enjoy my life. Lately, I've been thinking about living a purpose-driven life, especially with the anniversary of my Aunt's death coming up. I just need to remember not to complain about the banalities of life.

Today is MLK Jr. Day. The other day, Hillary Clinton said something rather foolish and offensive. She said that "Dr King’s dream began to be realised when President Lyndon Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It took a president to get it done." Bill Clinton called Barack's campaign a "fairytale."

The implications behind that insensitive yet racially eye-opening statement makes me rethink my vote towards Hillary. As someone so candidly said, Hillary Clinton doesn't care about black people, she only cares about black people who won't challenge her dynasty. The Clinton's act like crusaders for the black community, but then they insult the drudgery MLK Jr. and his Civil Rights Crusaders put into it, saying that all it took was a president. And I think we can see the racial implications there.

I'm also taking a Minorities in American Society class. That might explain why I'm so crunk.
