I got through Tuesday, the day from Hell. I always hate this day because it requires me to spend so much time at school. I start off with a class at 2pm, then a class at 4pm, and then I have a class at 6:30pm. It is a bit exhausting.
For some reason, my article still is not in the Herald. It's been over a week, and I read what was going to be in the paper tomorrow, and it sure wasn't my article. That's kind of depressing. Not much I can do about it, but I was pretty much looking forward to that article almost a week ago. I seem to be seeing a lot of pro-Bush, pro-war stuff that is being printed instead.
I really would like to find a venue where I don't have to hear about this upcoming war anymore. I'm tired of hearing about it. I don't want to know any more about it. I'm getting so sick and tired of seeing how international events are bothering our personal lives when in reality international events have ZERO impact on our personal lives. For some reason, we seem to be putting so much emphasis on making these events a part of our daily life, adding stresses that we wouldn't normally have, all for some purpose that I don't think anyone is actually benefiting.
Nobody seems to even care anymore. The hawks are leading us to war. They aren't listening to anyone that doesn't want to go to war. Yet, they expect everyone to rally around them regardless. I really hate hearing the statement: "You can disagree with us, but once the war starts, everyone must back our boys!" or something like that. I really hate hearing that. I don't want anything to do with this war. I want an opt-out clause, but there is none. I want the UN to make a vote and state "Well, we decided to wipe out Iraq, but this is against the personal wishes of Duane Gundrum who is at the corner 7-11 right now pouring himself an Icee, so we decided it would be wise not to disturb him." I'm kind of disgusted with 70 percent of the people who live in my country right now. I am surrounded by a country of stupid people who actually think they know what they're talking about, and that worries me.
It's really depressing, the more I think about it.
I'm hoping that somehow I can arrange to go to Prague this summer, and if all works out, who knows, maybe I'll never come back. It might be wise to be away from the USA before it collapses upon itself. It's not wise existing in a melting pot that never actually took the melting process all too seriously.
Stumble It!
