It's been a while since I last posted. Now, June is here, and lots of events are occurring! Let's see...here's a short overview of my life. That is, in a neat organized list.
6/9: 8th Grade Grad Trip to Great America
6/16-17: FINALS
6/17: Graduation!
6/18: Last day of school|Grad Night
6/19: Sleepover at Amy's for Grad
6/20: Begin packing for China
6/23: Going to China
It's the most that's ever happened in my life in one month. Honestly, graduation events really take up tons of time, huh? I'm not really looking forward to it. To me, grad is just a whole bunch of annoying speeches. Then you know what? Getting up one by one to get some idiotic certificate is the worst part. Why they do it at all is way beyond me.
At least there's one good outcome: No more school! Finally, summer vacation is not some far-fetched dream. It's FINALLY here!! I can't wait until finals are over. Then, I can finally slack off and have fun.

I just finished reading Incantation by Alice Hoffman. It's a seriously good book. The beginning was a bit draggy, and I was like, "Wtf?" Later on, though, there's surprising twists in the plot. And the end...the end was amazing. ToT It made me cry...it just makes it seem as though fate were something that you can't deter, and yeah...just really, really sad. The book portrays the meaning of shattering humanity, and taking away loved ones. I just can't believe the book made me cry...it's been a really long time since I cried because of a book. The last time, I can't even remember. When a book makes me cry, then it's obviously touching enough to be good.

What should I talk about today? There's not a lot going on in life...nothing that's worth jotting down, anyhow. I usually like writing when listening to sad music. It makes me write intense things, stuff that I wouldn't usually talk about. Maybe if I keep babbling, I'll think of something to write soon. It's always like that, don't you think? I always end up talking about things I never meant to say in the first place. I barely ever talk during school. I'm more of a solitary kind of person. But when it comes to writing, I become such a big-mouth. I let loose things that I'm not supposed to say. Maybe because I don't have to worry about whether the paper is approving of what I'm writing.
Ah! I know what to write now. I'm going to talk about prejudice. There's so many different types of prejudices in this world. I always wonder why though. What makes a person hate a particular race so much?? It really doesn't make any sense to me! How can someone hate another person so much, even though that person shares so much in common with them? This kind of thing frustrates me to the tip of my soul. I think, think, and think again, but I still don't understand it. Just like bi, gay, and incest relationships. True, for incest relationships, the children will be mutated, and they probably shouldn't have sex or anything like that. (I'm serious, I'm saying this in a serious tone.) What makes their relationship so illegal though? I just don't freaking get it! What is it that's wrong? Don't answer me and tell me, "It just IS." That's not a reason. Nothing in this world "just IS".
I HATE reading news stories about incest couples being arrested, and put in jail. I hate hearing how their relationship, their link is just forcefully broken like that. It hurts, you know? In this generation, should there still be something like forbidden love? Aren't we past that generation yet? That century? Same for gay and bi people. Oh, okay. Just because we've been pairing up with the opposite sex for ages, pairing up with your own sex is suddenly WRONG?! This world disappoints me. If I've been eating rice my whole life, and suddenly, I start eating pasta, is it that wrong? That's what I hate about traditions. Sometimes they pierce your life and break it into a thousand pieces. Traditions sometimes dig so deep into a person's body, that they cannot see the world in any different way. If this is what traditions bring us to, I'd rather it not exist. If at the very beginning of the world, gay, lesbian, and incest couples existed, would the world still think this way? I think not. Why? Same answer. "It just IS."
If one thinks that it is disgusting to live in the same world as people with difference like that, and think that people like that are wastes of space...then I'm sorry. I feel nothing but pity for them. I could just as easily say that people like THAT are big wastes of space. But I won't. Why? Because not a SINGLE living thing on this planet, in this entire Solar System, is a waste of space. They all deserve to be here, every single one of them. You share the same sky, the same sun, the same air as them. You have so much in common. More than you can imagine. But you still think that you're different; better? I am now shaking my head in despair. I don't get it, I don't get it, I don't freaking get it!!!

Weird much? I've recently picked up the habit of playing virtual pet sites again. Again? Yes, again. I stopped playing around November of last year, when I started getting really into anime. Now, I enjoy both equally. It's nice to be able to like and do anything you want. Once again, I don't have much to say. There's never anything interesting enough in my life. Trust me...if there was, I'd certainly update my blog.
You know what? I hate middle school. It's there that all my friends from elementary school are changing. A lot of them are messed up, if you know what I mean. Like Jasmine. I don't have anything against her, but all she cares about now is style. She's turned into one of those people who care way too much about clothes and fashion. She's even wearing make-up to school! I think that's a bit passing "over the line". If she still got good grades, maybe it wouldn't matter much, but the point is: She doesn't. It's always "this sale and that sale". You wanna know something? She isn't just my friend; she's my best and oldest friend. But if she's going to go into the direction of the girls who get messed up in high school, I'm definitely not going to follow her no matter what. I don't want to end up like the kinds of people with no purpose in life. That's really stupid and pointless. Even if I have to disown her as a friend, I'm fine with it. I'd rather disown a friend than disown my whole life and future.
Well, there goes my usual ranting. For once though, I'm ranting about something that's actually going on in my personal life. Well, minus the time when I started yelling about MSJE's parents complaining about Ms. Byrd. I guess I might as well update some events in my life.
Yesterday, I went to my last middle school social (not counting the grad night social). It can be described as one of the best socials I've ever been to. Erika forced me to go into the gym to dance, and it was much more fun than I expected. :) Now, I can't wait until the Grad Night Social on the last day of school. Plus, that one is from 7-10 pm!! I really can't wait...
