Wake-up Call
Hay Xanga? Remember how I was all "zomg ur awesome lulz!!!11!" like, 3 posts ago?? I liiiied. I thought you were awesome. I thought you were all fancy newspaper-y with real issues and real current events, but I see the truth now. It was all just a front for the trashy teen magazine you really are. We are obsessed with the media. We are obsessed with the stereotypes. We are stuck on pretty people, ugly people, sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Where is the real stuff?? The worst part is thousands of people not only read this trash, they comment on it too!! Like it matters!! And when people actually do open up about their E.D. or abuse they've been through, or even just the fact that they honest to gosh think Miley Cyrus is pretty, they get bashed and harassed to NO END! What's the frakkin point?? Sure, some of it has helped me, but so much has hurt, too.
Urrrrgh. Xanga, you make my tummy queasy. I thought I had body issues before, but now, thanks to Mancouch, Datingish, and Lovelyish, I'm not sure I'll ever recover.
And yes, not all are this bad, I love Momaroo and Autisable, but those, too, are so involved with "the media says this, the media says that, people think this, people think that." I just wonder what the point is sometimes, ya know? There are some really great posts out there, but there are also some that just make me go O.o
I have fallen out of love with you, Xanga; I have taken the rose-colored glasses off, and I see you for all you are now.

Can We Please Stop Talking About Avatar Now?
Seriously. You know, it's funny. Every blog I read about it, every review, every status update, they all say the same thing -- I heard all these fantastic things about Avatar but it's not actually that great. What I want to know is where are these people saying the fantastic things about Avatar? I havn't met them yet.
I personally liked Avatar a lot. It ended and I was like, "Woah." But it isn't the most amazing thing ever, either. It does seem a bit unoriginal at times, and the dialogue is definitely weak, but I'm not a movie critic and I rate a movie more on the experience I personally had while seeing it. It made me feel things, and the visuals were awesome. I did enjoy feeling like I was actually flying at times, it made me a little stomach-sick, actually, but in a good way. There was nothing in it that made me pause and say, "Wait, that's not right," but again, I'm not a movie critic. I loved the story, and even if it was a rip-off of a hundred other things, this is still the first time I've heard it told in exactly THIS way.
For those of you out there who don't think it was all that great, no one cares. For those of you that did, don't bother trying to shout your joy because it will just get stomped on. I think this is one of those things where you either love it, or you don't, but for the love of Ai'Wa I am sick of hearing about it.

O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Down to the River to Pray
see relatedAre you an organ donor? Why or why not?
I am most definitely an organ donor. I don't know why a person wouldn't be. What're they going to do with their organs when they're dead? That's like people who save money their whole lives, only to die without ever really enjoying any of it. Okay, so it's not exactly like that, but still. Hoarding things for the dead when there are people in need still living just doesn't make sense to me. I can understand if it's against your religious beliefs to have some on cut you up once you die, but considering most religions also have moral guides for how to treat and care for your fellow human beings, I think you should seriously reflect on which part is more important, considering if you were in good health when you died, they definitely contradict.
Ever since I learned that you could put "donor" on your state ID/drivers license I have been all the more eager to get one. Until I did, I carried around my "donor" card. Anyone who is a donor should be proud, and anyone who isn't should really think about why they aren't.I just answered this Featured Question; you can answer it too!
