You know what I wish some people would just realize? MONEY DOESN'T BUY HAPPINESS. Think about it; we just had Christmas. Did all those gifts make you happier? Like, truely happy? In the long run? Did they make you a better person? Did they stop your wants? Do you have more friends now than you did on December 24, because you got a million bucks of stuff under your tree? No, you don't. Some people just are trying to fill the void in their completely shallow lives by buying insane amounts of THINGS. Some people are so full of WANT its disgusting. Why do some people always have to be the best? The center of attention? No matter what, they ALWAYS have a story to top yours; or cuter clothes, or a newer, faster computer, or whatever else they think will make them happy. Maybe it DOES make them happier, in which case it just makes them incredably shallow and sad and sick. I'm just saying, when it comes down to it, my best friend isn't the one that has the best car, biggest house, most money. Its gonna be the person who listens to me most, who actually cares about me and who I am and how I am feeling. (Not that I actually have many friends like that, but whatevs.)

None of that was directed at anyone; just the world in general. I hate living where I live because it is SO material oriented. I hate watching myself be sucked into the world of cellphones and miniskirts and gucci. its all so pointless and so shallow. I'm getting so sick of everything and almost everyone.
