Prayers

I hardly do this but I want to ask people for prayers. Mainly for two people and their families. First is Denny Kline (lovingly referred to as Kline). She was in a car accident this past weekend and is still in ICU. I don't have anymore details then that but its enough for me to worry.

The second is Lammy. This is Kt's grandmother and has served as my second grandmother. She might not make it through the night. She has had health issues and has been in and out of the hospital. The worst part is that I'm not there. Kt is my best friend and I can't be there with her through this. So I'm aksing you to pray for Lammy, Kt, and their whole family.

Today was supposed to be a good day :-(

Lists

I'm a big fan of making lists. Granted, my to-do lists don't always get done but I'm still a big fan of making lists. So here are some of my lists (not my to-do list...that would be too long).


Football People That Need to be Punched in the Face...Like NOW

• Chad Ochocinco: Seriously? You're a tool. You are a great receiver but you have no clue how to run with the ball. Sure, making the catches is great but how are you going make yards after the catch if you don't secure the football? Another thing, stop thinking that you are the best receiver in football. News flash: YOU'RE NOT!! According to fantasy numbers you are ranked number 8. So stop jumping into opposing teams' stands and believing you're number one.
• Tony Romo: Granted, I don't have as much beef with you as I do with Ochocinco. The main reason I think you need to be punched in the face is because you're a Cowboy. That aside though, I do think you are a good football player but I think you are a jerk of a person. You dumped Jessica Simpson basically on her birthday. And you also seem to always have an issue with your big name WR. Granted the last one was T.O. and everyone has a problem with him but this is one is Roy Williams. I don't know as much about Williams but it is a repeat problem. Maybe the issue is you Romo and not so much your WR.
• The Patriots: Yes. The whole team including the coaches. I HATE YOU! You somehow got the announcers to bend over backward to say that you are the best team in the NFL. You're not. Granted, you've won three Super Bowls since 2004 and you had a perfect regular season two years ago but stop thinking that this makes you gods and that you can cheat. You play in a really crappy division so stop thinking that this makes you good.
• The People Who Decide What Games Each City Gets to Watch: I am still bitter about last week. Look at my previous post to understand why.
• The Giants: That is correct. I want to punch my beloved Giants in the face. GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!!!!!! You were looking so freakin good and then you got your asses beat by the Saints. I wasn't sure you were going to win but the fact that you got your heads cut off and served to you on a platter made me want to cry. Then you lost to the Cardinals and the Eagles. You should have beat both of those teams! I mean the Eagles lost to the Raiders! I am a Giants fan for life and will always root for you but I am very, very, VERY disappointed in you right now. Get it together before I fly to the Meadowlands and punch every single one of you in the face.

Things That I Think Have Potential to be Good

• Government Provided Health Care: First off, I said potential in the list title. I was going to read the bill the house just passed but it is 1990 pages so I will have to read it in bits. I can't trust news stations or the two people who I would normally go to about political issues (one is a republican and one is a democrat) because they will only tell me that is 1) a great thing (and list reasons) or 2) a terrible thing (and list reasons). Back to my point. I think the idea is great as long as I'm not forced to participate in the government's plan. It is capitalism at its best. The government throws out this plan that is meant to help those who don't have health care so it will be pretty basic and not judge you based upon a previous condition (like being pregnant...yes I'm serious. This is considered a pre-existing condition and if you are pregnant you can't get health insurance). Thus, the private companies will increase the coverage of their basic plan because why would I pay for something that I can get for free? Thus this would increase the quality of private insurance. It is supply and demand. If the private companies make their base plans better then the government plans, people that can already afford health insurance will more then likely go for the better quality plan. I know I would. And yes, I am aware that people will tell me that this will increase the national debt. But this is where I point out the word "potential." I can't explain the national debt issue because it is so big and every thing the government does increases the national debt. I'm not a economist so I can't tell you how to fix that problem. I just think in theory this is a good idea. (side note...every says they are afraid of the bill. I'm not so I don't understand why people are. If you are able to answer this question without insulting me I welcome your answer)
  
• Teach for America: I'm going to be a teacher. I have gone through the training and the field experience for my degree. Teach for America is a great idea but it is putting people who have none of this in the field of teaching. They are expected to learn on the job. But they are not certified nor are they fully prepared (unless they already have an educational background). Teaching is harder then it looks and although the idea of putting teachers in much needed areas, the teachers being placed have no advanced training scares me. In theory, Teach for America is a great idea. I just wish it would be at least a year of training before they put teachers in the field instead of only 5 weeks.
  

I could create more lists but I think this is enough for now.

To Whom It May Concern

Dear Sports Reporters,
Stop defending Farve and clamining that his departure from Green Bay was forced so therefore they think he shouldn't be booed. Did you guys not see what he did to GB? GB finally grew balls and got rid of him when he couldn't decide if HE wanted to be there or not and then wanted to play ...on the Vickings so that he could play against GB. He was, and still is, a douche. So BOOOOOOO BRETT FARVE

Dear People Who Decide What Football Game I Get to Watch
WHY IS PITTSBURGH NOT GETTING THE EAGLES GAME??????????? The Steerlers have a bye week and the game you choose to show on Fox is the 49ers vs Colts???!!!! WTF???!!! You have an AMAZING game playing at 1pm that involves a PENNSYLVANIA team and you choose a game that is POINTLESS to 99.9% of residents of Pittsburgh? Why? What is wrong with you people who decide what game cities get to watch??!!!!!!!

Dear Congress,

You are grilling the NFL because they only allow their employees (yes, the players are employees) go to team doctors in regards to injury. You say its not fair because you have the coach breathing down the doctors neck to clear the player. NEWS FLASH: Welcome to the world of company owned health insurance. When I got stitches in my hand, I HAD TO go to an "approved" doctor. Granted, the doctor didn't have my bosses breathing down their neck but my bosses were breathing down mine. They kept complaining that I couldn't do everything. They were pressuring me to get them removed early. So in short Congress, if you only find it an issue that the NFL makes their employees go to an assigned doctor, you have just proved that 1) you're blind when it comes to health care 2) seem to only care about rich people and 3) you care more about sports then you do about ACTUAL issues like Iraq, health care, or Afghanistan. You only worry about crap like this to make it look like you are doing something.

Dear Tom Cable
I don't know if I believe that you hit all these women but I do believe you hit your assistant coach. Yet, I don't think you should get fired. Why? You're the coach for the Raiders. They are all a bunch of loonies.

~You do all this big talk so now let's see you walk it

13 Reasons Why

I just finished this book called Thirteen Reasons Why. It is about the thirteen reasons why a girl committed suicide. It was really good and got me to think about things.

No, I'm not thinking about killing myself. Figured I would throw that out there before someone freaks.

I'm pretty sure that everyone can think of at least 10 reasons why they should have killed themselves by now if they didn't have a support system. If you claim you don't have any reasons, then you are saying that because you had someone to fall back on. Imagine something really bad that happened to you. Now, imagine if you didn't have your best friend, family member, boyfriend, etc to help you through that. Would that have been one of your reasons?

I know, its all dark and emoy but its true. Since the start of 6th grade, I can list 10 reasons in my head that would have lead to my destruction. But I had a support system that helped me through those times. There are three people that have been there for me more than anyone else (there were other people as well but these three made the biggest impact) and that what this entry is about. Those three people.

Caitlin - I've only know you for two short years but in those two short years you've become my best friend. You've been there to take care of me when I've been sick both physically and emotionally. You've delt with my bitching and, most of time, understand me and what I need without me saying a word. Thank you for being there and listening to me.

Tom - We became WC friends and you refused to let go. Since my junior year, anytime I think of an issue I've had, I can remember advice you gave me. You would listen to me and give me advice no matter where you were or what you were doing. You give me the best adivce you can and listen to me complain even when I say the same thing over and over and over again. You never get upset with me or frustrated and I thank you for that.

Kt - I could go on for ages for the things you've done for me. The amount of times we've talked at random hours with just me crying and you just listening. I know I make fun of you for that card in 6th grade but in a way that saved me. We both had been dissed by multiple people and betrayed by people we thought were our friends. That card was just what I needed to know that I did have a friend. I've known you since I was 5 and we are excatly 6 months apart. We were meant to be best friends and we have remainded best friends even though we haven't gone to the same school since 8th grade. I love you and thank you for always being there for me and always offering your services to beat someone up be it a girl who is being mean to me or my boss.


I thank everyone that has given me support. There are more of you but I escpcially thank Caitlin, Tom, and Kt. You bring a simle to my face...always


~I hope you know there's nothing I could give for showing me how to live.

:-)

I know. Its strange to see the fact that I've put a smiley face as my title. I mean my boyfriend dumped me a week ago. I should be sad (especially considering he now officially dating the girl he left me for) but I'm not. Really not. Why?

CAITLIN BLANEY IS MY HERO!!!

I feel bad because she was put in the middle of all of this shit but she has been by my side through this whole thing.

I'm also happy because I have realized who my friends are through this and what it means to be a good friend. I also learned that there is another guy out there for me.


I know that is strange to say only a week later but I've been run through the mud so much this week that I realized that not all guys are jackasses (also realized this after I saw the way Chris treated Katie and Tom treat Katie...two different Kaites by the way). I will find the guy I'm meant to be with. It's going to be hard because I have no clue how long it will take for me to find that guy and don't know how many other guys that are not right for me I will have to go through but I will find him. I know I will. And for those hard times I have my true friends which is a lot more people that I thought. Thank you guys. I love you all.


~Get up and start another day. Another day to prove this world has something to live for

.......I don't know what to say

Aaron and I officially broke up today.

This came totally out of right field starting a week and a half ago. He found someone else. It hurts. Physically hurts. My stomach is turning and my head is pounding. I can't sleep and can't really eat. I just want to cry and cry.

I feel like my world is ending. I had a rock and a comfort for three years and now I have no one. No one to randomly text about pointless crap. No one to run to when I need to feel safe. No one that can just kiss me and make me feel better. No one that loves me. Not friendship love but actual love. It is killing me inside. I'm not even being dramatic

I now know how Katie felt when Vince dumped her out of right field and how Ross felt when Daniella dumped him.

I was happy. If you go back to my LJ account you can tell when I met Aaron. My posts became less depressing and more bitching about nothing. I was using it as an outlet for stress instead of talking about how depressed I was.

I really was happy. I don't know if I will ever be that happy again. People will try and tell me that things will get better and that everything happens for a reason. Right now, I don't give a damn. Hearing that makes me feel even worse about the situation. Please don't tell me that.

"I want to be with you. I'm sorry" from him could fix this. It would stop my pain. I just want that pain to go away.

Three years of my life. I feel like I've wasted three years of my life. I'm going to be in pain for months yet he is already to move onto someone else. How the hell is that fair? He just wants to push me out of his head. I guess I wasn't that important to him.


~You left a hole where my heart should be

A Note on Relationships

Usually I use this blog to bitch and moan about things that annoy me but due to recent activity, I think I need to make a note on relationships.

The biggest myth in relationships is "its not you its me." If you are planning on leaving someone, you use this line to make the person your leaving feel better when in fact, you are leaving them for something they did. You may say that you changed but the reason you changed is because of something the person you are leaving did. Thus, "its not you its me" is always bullshit.

When you leave someone because something they have been doing has been bothering you but you never tell them, it is beyond unfair to not give them a change to fix it. And when you do give them a chance to fix it, its not fair if you don't try as well. That just makes you an ass and a dick. You can't expect the person you are leaving to know magically what is wrong. And then you can't say "I'll give you a chance" and then ignore the trying.

Also, leaving someone you've been with for three years because of one bad week that lead you to look for someone else to show you caring, is total bullshit. It makes you a terrible person. You can't believe that you don't want to be someone after one bad week. And this bad week is just because the person you are leaving was stressed due to other things going on in their life. Yes, they didn't mention why they were stressed but I'm pretty sure that when you've been with someone for three years you can pretty much guess.

Everything can't change in 5 days.

~I put my faith in you, so much faith, and you just threw it away

Workers Comp, Comcast, and Gender Benders

Workers comp is the biggest pain in my ass. Seriously. I cannot think of anything that is causing a bigger pain than workers comp right now.

Here is the story: I was working at Late Night and due to us getting a new cook, I had to help him make hoggies and what not. As I was cutting open a piece of bread, I cut too far and hit my hand. I now have two stitches in my hand. My normal insurance would cover this without any problem but because I was at work, and every company is afraid of getting sued, I had to fill out an accident report and receive workers comp. Now the office is pissed at me because they have to fill out all this paper work and I have to go to an "approved" doctor to get my stitches (all two of them) removed. I HAVE MY OWN DAMN INSURANCE! I WANT TO GO TO MY OWN DOCTOR/HEALTH SERVICES TO GET THESE STITCHES REMOVED! I would not be worked up about this if my mangers would stop being such assholes towards me. I know I screwed up and I know you have to do paper work but I do more work than any other student employee. GET OFF MY BACK! If this doesn't stop soon I might be tempted to quit.

Not helping any is Comcast. I decided to get a digital cable box even though I get basic cable for free. The main reason for this is that it will only cost me $3.99 a month and since I will be paying for it, it will help me build credit. I was told that if I wasn't in my room, an RA would let them in. But no. I now have to reschedule my appointment. Damn them.

And a final note for gender benders. If you are a guy and decide to wear jeans that are made to be worn by teenage girls, have your hair cut in a pixie style, have long fingernails that you have painted, and have dyed your hair pink, you have no right to be offended if I call you a female by mistake. If you look like a girl I'm going to call you a girl. This also goes for girls who wear extremely baggy clothing and chop all their hair off. If you choose to be a gender bender, being called the wrong sex comes with the territory.

~Leave behind the black and white

Rants

I need to update this thing more often. Since it has been such a long time since I've updated, I deserve to rant about 5 things. If you don't like it, oh well.

1) Micheal Jackson. GET OVER IT PEOPLE!!! I'm sick of hearing about him. I know his death was sudden and that he was (key word "was") a great performer but he died over a month ago. Unless you were close to him, mourning him for more than a week is ridiculous. You didn't know him, you only knew his music. Plus he hadn't put out a CD since the 90's so you should really have been mourning him back when he stopped writing music. Seriously. Get over it. NOW!

2) Jon and Kate Plus 8. I'm not going to lie, I loved that show. With the divorce, however, I think they are stupid to continue filming the show. Speaking of the divorce, they shouldn't have done it so quickly. What about marriage therapy or taking a weekend just the two of you without cameras? I know I can't really judge because I've never been in that situation but considering they are TV stars, and more importantly TV stars that are based upon them being parents, it seems like the logical option to try and work it out. But beyond that, I am also sick of hearing about them. It is there personal lives and yes, I understand they lost almost all of that by being on TV but they do deserve some privacy/tabloid lax.

3) The Metro. For the love of God learn how to run your damn trains!!! How many near misses have we had let along deaths this year? Also, another guy just died at Vienna. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Metro you need to get your asses in gear yesterday.

4) Islamic Saudi Academy and Fairfax county residents (well some of them). Really? You guys are being that closed minded? To clarify, ISA is a private prep school that is, obviously, religious based and is looking to expand its campus on Pope's Head Rd. It is a conservative school that teaches its students the fundamentals of Islam and teaches the strict adherence to tradition. People say its "un-American." Umm...riiight. They are not teaching the children to kill people who do wrong (it was taken out of their text books which by the way is still in the bible, at least the OT) nor are they taught to hate America. Granted, I don't beleive in the way they run aspects of their school (girls and boys don't take classes together after second grade) they believe that women and men should not learn in the same room. Most of their students are American and most of them go on to American universities. I would never go there but that is because I'm not Islamic. Also, to say you would support Pee-Wee Hermon if he ran against one of the 6 that voted for this expansion says to me that your more of an idiot then you let on. Now, I know you people have a right to say stuff like this but maybe it is because of the close minded way you view Islamics is the reason why the extremests hate us.

5) Hillary. Way to have a PMS moment, with a college student no less. Get over yourself.


Ugh. I'm over it.


~Shut up and put your money where you mouth is

Curse You Southwest

First off, why the hell are flights so expensive to DC from Pittsburgh? $415 to Regan via US Airways. The cheapest flight is $107 into BWI (which is not DC, it is Baltimore) via Southwest. When I started college, Southwest flew into Dullas and Regan from Pittsburgh but due to budgets cuts they chose to only fly into BWI. Why did they have to pick BWI?

The reason this is a problem is because I have an opportunity to go to game 7 of Capitals and Penguins on a press pass. Not only would I be able to see the game I would be able to go where ever I wanted. The only requirment would be to take pictures of fans for the first two periods. A fair trade off in my mind.

Here is the problem: I have a playoff softball game at 2pm which prevents me from being able to drive home to make the game. Softball games take about an hour and a half to two hours. This means that I can be at the airport by 4:30 so, without bags, I can get on a 5:10 flight which is the flight being offered by both Southwest and US Airways. If I were to by a ticket to game 7 it would cost me between $100 and $200 dollars so the Southwest flight, at $107, is the amount I would pay to see the game. Only problem is, as I said, it flies into BWI which, for you people who may not know this, is AT LEAST an hour away from downtown DC. So if my flight arrives at 6pm, I would be in DC a little after 7pm which is a problem because to pick up the press pass, I would need to be there a little before faceoff which is scheduled at 7:15.

So curse you Southwest. If you just flew into Regan, or even Dullas, I would not be having this problem. It is your fault I cannot go to game 7.

PS - Rodger Clemens has always been a jerk. And an idot. The reason he says he never used steriods is because he has a family health problem of heart attacks. His stepfather had one. Does Clemens realize that he shares no gentic material with his stepfather therefore it does not matter what happens to his stepfather. This makes me doubt him because it sounds like he is just grasping for straws.

~You'll never live your life if you're sleeping all the time

Linguistics is the Devil

I HATE linguistics. I will pass the class with no problem but I'm so glad I had the professor I did because otherwise I would be royally screwed. It just doesn't make sense to me. AT ALL.

And since I have this strong hatred towards linguistics, I'm finding it very difficult to write my Pearl paper since it involves knowing a little bit about linguistics for at least the first part of my paper. I'm struggling to get through it. So far I only have a page and a half. I'm stuck. First time in my life that I've had this bad of writers block for a paper. It pains me. Stupid linguistics ruining the best class of this semester.


On a brighter note, the reason my iGoogle gives for me to drink today is amazing. "Today's Star Wars Day: May the Fourth (be with you). Today would be great for a Star Wars drinking game."

This made me smile just a little bit despite all this crap I have to shift through in order to continue to write my paper.


Gah

WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE FROM SWINE FLU...or not

Apparently Swine Flu is a world wide pandemic. 717 cases and 20 deaths with 19 of those deaths in Mexico City and the 20th was a Mexican toddler in Texas.


That warrants a pandemic fear? I don't think so. Let's look at the numbers.


The normal flu, not Bird Flu or this Swine Flu/H1N1, kills about 36,000 in the United States along according to CDC. If you type in the question "how many people are in the United States" in ask.com you will receive the answer 300,000,000. If we take this to be true, than 0.012% of the US population dies from the flu. Now, if you count that one death as a US death, than 0.00000003% of the US population has died from Swine Flu.

Oh wait, I'm not done yet. If you type in the question "how many people are in the world" ask.com will give you the answer 6,446,131,400. This means that 0.000000031% of the world population has died from Swine Flu and that 0.000011% of the world's population has caught the Swine Flu.

...? We are panicking over this??!!

This is not the Spanish flu which killed 600,000 people in 1918. And this is not going to turn into it because 20 people have died from it. 20. I'm pretty sure that within the first few weeks of the Spanish flu (which happened in the winter) it killed 100 some people.

We are in the summer months at the tail end of flu season. The flu virus doesn't live in hot weather.

Three things have to happen in order for me to be remotely afraid of this damn thing. 1) More than 20 people will have to die within a weeks period. This has been in the news for about 2 weeks not and only 20 people have died. Kick that number up to 200+ in two weeks and maybe I will be freaked. 2) People outside Mexico City will have to die. The city has 2 billion people and it does not have the best sanitation record. Of course people will get sick. 3) The virus numbers will increase during the summer months. I'm not talking about 200 more cases within the next two weeks, I'm talking about the number hitting over 1,000 in June.


Experts are saying the best way to avoid catching the Swine Flu is to wash your hands and stay home if you're not feeling that well. But that is also the best advice for avoiding catching a cold, the normal flu, strep throat, mono, and any other sickness that is spread by people breathing on other people.


In my mind, we should be freaking out about a normal flu pandemic which kills a higher percentage of Americans.


John Stewart said it best on The Daily Show. "Health experts and reporters are saying not to panic. But do you watch your own damn network?! It is all you guys talk about! Of course people are going to panic!"

This is why I haven't been watching the news recently. All they are talking about is the Swine Flu and Congress trying to get a playoff system for Division I college football.

What about the economic shithole are country is in? Or the war in Iraq which is kills more people than the Swine Flu?

But nope, our news networks decide to cause unnecessary panic.


Stupid.


~My existence is the product of the air that cools my lungs and the survival of experience

C-A-P-S CAPS CAPS CAPS....among other things

I FREAKIN LOVE THE CAPS!!!!


No really I do. Semin, Green, Poti and of course, Ovechkin. Ovechkin could avord to stop being an idot when it comes to his driving (going over 100 mph in DC) but otherwise he isn't that bad of a guy. So what if he slams against the ice at home when he scores a goal? Its the Verizon center and the fans love it. He's physical but he is respectful of other players abilities (he did admit that Crosby was a good player). This is hockey. Players check. He is big. You do the math.

Beyond that I'm really excited to be in Pittsburgh for this series. I love walking around with my Ovechkin shirt on espcially after they win. Penguin fans think that their team is the shit so its nice to remind them that just becaus they have Crosby, they are not the best thing that has happened to hockey. They also complain too much that the national stage thinks Ovechkin is better than Crosby. So what? Get over it.


I'm also very glad that the Caps have made it this far because its been the only highlight for the past week. I started off being sick and tried to write a paper. It turned out like shit so my professor allowed me to rewrite it. Well, guess who lost their flash drive? Yep. Me. Oh wait, this lovely story isn't over. So I had to rewrite this paper but I also had a really big and hard final yesterday which ment I had to choose do I study for this big final or write this paper? I choose to study. This means that I still havn't rewritten this paper.

I also have to write three other papers that are due on Tuesday.


I hate finals.


I also hate the fact that ESPN decided to do 3 hours of coverage for a 2 minute race. Thats right, ESPN is having 3 hours devoted to the Kentucky Derby. WTF?


I'm done with my pointless rambling and going to go back to watching the game and writing this paper.


~Just waking up is a reason for celebration

I Wonder....

Have you ever wondered what life would be like if you made one different decision? I'm not talking about small decisions like if you have chosen chocolate ice cream over cookie dough. I'm talking about what would have happened if you choose to go to a different college than the one you're at or chosen to say yes to a guy instead of no.

I've been thinking about these things recently which makes me wonder if there is such thing as fate. If I had chosen to go to CNU instead of DUQ would I have still found my way to Aaron? If not does that mean 1) soul mates don't exist or 2) he isn't mine. Or what would have happened if I never chosen to join the school of education? Would I have met all the awesome friends that I have now or would I still be looking for people to be friends with?

I'm most likely freaking out about nothing but yet it still bothers me. I ususally try to live by the motto don't have any regrets but I'm starting to realize that if you are human, or Catholic at least, it is impossible to not have regrets. You always have a conscience which means you feel guilty about something which means you have a regret. Although it might be guilt about something you shouldn't have done you still have regret.



I am offically talking in circles. This is what happens when I freak out. I just blab about nothing. Arg.


Life sucks

~I keep pushing myself even though I can't take it at all

Only 7 days.....

I've decided to start blogging again. I had a LiveJournal back in high school but once I got to college I just stopped.


7 days of classes. That is all I have left for the semester. I'm so glad because frankly this semester has sucked. We had to put Tigger down, Dr. Labriola died, and life has just been flat out stressful. I still have a lot of homework left and I only have 7 days of classes left. Why do professors feel the need to make everything due at the end of the semester? And then, most of them at least, don't understand why their students are tired. It is as though they have forgotten what it was like to be a student.

I feel as though my life will become less stressful once I get into the real world. Ironic but true. Yes I will have to grade papers, write lesson plans and what not but I will control the amount of work I will have to do which will be nice.

Random change of topics. Hockey would be the most boring sport if fighting and checking wasn't aloud. And Crosby checks like a girl. I just saw him try and check a Flyer and the guy barely moved. Speaking of which the Pens Flyers game is turning into a boxing match. There were just 4 penalties for fighting two of which were 5 minute major. How ridiculous. But as I said, Hockey would be much boring otherwise.

I should really get back to homework and my Chinese food
