Well here I am at school, and it's been quiet the past few days, and that's quite nice. Of course, there's a new guy on the floor and I don't think he understands that it's a quiet floor yet, lol. Ah well, whatever. I've made a mess of my room already, and it's been only 3 days. I gotta clean up tomorrow so my roommate can move in with ease. It's good to see the whole crew again. I missed them over break, and only saw them never over it. Kinda sucky, but it happens. I rather like my journal here, but can anybody think of ways they might see it as better? Not that I'll change it, I'm just curious as to what you might like to see on it. From the black one would think that this is a deadbeat type place, but it's not; it's just it sets the mood for all I'd like it to be. Another good way is to listen to the song "Your eyes open" by Keane. I love that song so much. It's hauntingly nice...it's also what I think the world should do sometime soon, before we all go screwy and suddenly McDonald's is putting Caution: Cold on their ice cream cones, etc. I love this song...listening to it now, actually. lol If anybody wants to see pictures of some of the models I've built and painted, here's a link to the site I've posted them on: http://photobucket.com/albums/v232/veritas117/ Hopefully the link works; if not, then go to photobucket.com and search for the album veritas117. Either way should work. =][= before anyone continues reading, be they warned that the following are expressed political views and aren't meant to excite the blood of others. they are simply how I and some others view the world now =][= My generation is the absolute last of the rock era, I'm thinking. My friend finally opened her eyes to what I already knew. The music and themes nowadays are sexual. That's basically it. I would believe we are now in the pop/ra/hiphop era, geared towards making children (CHILDREN!) become sexually active at an impossibly early age and not put any value on it. Her sister is 6, and she's dancing like the sluttiest singers (or females on most music videos now) and loves their music. I know too many people influenced by this music (weak spined, etc?) and they are doing such things. The worst was a girl having sex in 7th grade. I mean, c'mon. I really doubt her parents were the cause of that one. At what point will someone in power realize that this is, according to our country, morally wrong? Our gov., Hot Rod Blagoyevich, is trying to limit the sale of mature video games to only older kids. Well, the youngers can just get it from their older siblings/friends, just like drugs anyways, so that's not going to help at all. *sigh* Like the title of my last entry "Oh the times..." We'll see how things turn out. All I can do is laugh at the younger generations, lol. No offense meant at all, I'm just sayin' it as I speak it. Granted, none really is all that great, it's just that their future kinda looks bleak, what with the proliferation is stupid people, ideas, fads, and "coolness" factors. Although some people are still good...ah well. Thought for the day "What tragedy is life, that the intelligent know that only the stupid breed most often and without care."
