(no subject)
hm, the last couple days have really fallen into each other.
today started off good. i have really made an effort to kick the laziness routine.. so i woke up early, studied for my mass communications final, and took that ---- i think i did well. i then sold the rest of my books and with that money decided to spend it all on my family for christmas. so i started to shop. bought megan some vinyl, but i didnt want to walk very far because it was getting dark and turned around and came back to good ol PPU. i really felt good though. i like to shop and give. i called the rents to see what they wanted. mom said she wanted jewelry, but anything shed actually wear would cost at least like 300 bucks, and any clothes she would like would cost the same. so i figure i will buy her some herbs or something nice for the house. haha and dad said he wanted " unity and peace... or for a group of children to protest outside of walmart and demand better rights for the workers". i see where i get it now. so that means dad is getting t-shirts or ties.
walking around downtown felt good though. like for once i have my own money to use for presents. thats pretty assuring.
i was highly pissed off though. actually furious to the point i couldnt eat.. i was so sick to my stomache. in the cumberland times news there was an article about dresscodes.. denoting that students who " have painted hair and piercings have no self respect". even my parents were angry. the man who wrote the article is clearly an ignorant man with a twisted perception of respect and an even worse philosophy on life in general. i lived and went to school in allegany county, md. had colored hair and piercings.. which is my fucking personal freedom.. thank you constitution... and i also was a 4.0 student with great objectives in life. i had charity shows, went to church. so to hear something like that, i really feel as if i am being singled out.
sooo i wrote a letter and am sending it to the paper, started a website, e-mailed a bunch of punk websites, and started a petition. i dont know if any of it will be effective, but i will have the gut feeling that i made an honest attempt.
so im really fucking tired, and i want christmas to be here. im so excited to go home i cant sleep, and i need to pack something terrible. and i need my hair done, deum bitch,deum.
oh oh and sunday i delivered presents to the needy family. it was just me , jen and our RA. sad.. but it was so worth it. i feel like i made people very happy for christmas, and they were grateful. to see the little boy smile at what i picked out for him was a great moment.
i love this time of year.
