It's nice when anonymous people read my journal and assume things that are probably untrue.
You, dear girl, have no idea who I'm talking about in my last entry. And don't think that I don't know who you are. It's not who you think it is, promise!
Stop lurking around. It's useless.
Grow up, eh? |

This weekend was mediocre for the most part. I hung out with Jenna on Friday. We ate at Cazadores and talked with Mexicans and about politics. I was glad to see her again. We don't hang out much anymore, and she's an awesome person. I watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind and felt more depressed than an emo song. I'm not gonna lie.
Saturday was lame. My best friend isn't making me happy. She has a lame boyfriend and she does lame things. So whatever.
Today I hung out with my family. It was actually fun, and I realized that I don't even know them anymore. All of my cousins grew up, so it was good to see them again.
I'm not looking forward to Tuesday. I will lose my license and will not be heard from again by the outside world until a month from then. flasfasjkl;ff;kl

[Sep. 15th, 2005|02:53 pm] |
Society is a joint-stock company,
in which the members agree,
for the better securing of his bread to each shareholder,
to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater.
The virtue in most request is conformity.
Self-reliance is its aversion.
It loves not realities and creators,
but names and customs.
Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist.
He who would gather immortal palms must not be hindered by the name of goodness,
but must explore if it be goodness.
Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.
Absolve you to yourself,
and you shall have the suffrage of the world.
What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think.
This rule, equally arduous in actual and in intellectual life,
may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness.
It is the harder,
because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it.
It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion;
it is easy in solitude to live after our own;
but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd
keeps with perfect sweetness
the independence of solitude.
To be great is to be misunderstood. |

I probably should be writing my paper right now instead of being on livejournal. But procrastination is what I do. What can I say? I'm fucking dumb. And I can't write papers. And it's frustrating me.
Here's what I have so far...
"Becca Ziegler
AP European History

Mr. Dugan
The Plague DBQ
The Plague that lasted from the mid-fourteenth to eighteenth century instilled a wide amount of anxiety and uncertainty in the people who survived it. The people of the time shared grief based off of their experiences, that drove them to establish strong feelings............."
...and it just stops.
Because I don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about.
EEEHHH SIDETRACKED. My washing machine is going crazy. It's sqeaking and spinning really loud.
i'm going to be up forever. six o'clock comes much too early

I want to write about my feelings on religion and God.
Cliche?
Maybe. But I don't care.
I believe that there is something out there, something greater than anyone could ever fathom, and I honestly have no idea why it is such an issue to non-believers that there are believers in the world. Why are personal beliefs debated by the masses? I don't truly think that everyone believes in the exact same thing, even when a common religion is shared, therefore no one should fight over religions and God. It just doesn't register with me.
Anyway, there is no proof that there is NOT a God, or a higher being, and there is no actual proof that there IS, either...which makes it all more meaningful to me. It just seems like society today can only base things off of pure fact. When will people just start making the choice to believe? Morale is so important.
Secondly, how can someone that lives a life of pure hatred and deceit, murder, rape, etc. just die off like someone who lives a life of love, happiness, optimism, etc?
It can't be denied that Jesus was a real person. That is fact. What is also fact is that he was the model of a perfect person. The stories that he told are metaphor to everyone and everything, that can even relate to now. He obviously understood the world in ways that no one else ever has, on levels that no one else can to date, over 2000 years ago. Whether or not you are religious, he died brutally for good causes. It was not out of evil or self righteousness. He was sincere, and a good model for the way we should live.
I'm not christian straight edge. Or any form of religion straight edge. I am not straight edge for God or my family or anyone else but myself. I really don't know what I think. And, personally, I think that the christian straight edge kids are a bunch of fags who try to sell and force-feed their religion. Religion is propaganda to so many people these days, when it should really be kept personal.
I was brought up Catholic, which made me very bitter for a long time about my beliefs and the whole subject of God all together. I totally denied religion for the longest time, but I think that when you start to grasp it and really try to be a better person, you grow up, change, and ultimately become the "better person" that you want to be. I am not Catholic. I can't define myself by any dimensions of any religions because I just don't have the time to try to mold myself into any of the religious sections in the world. I think that buddhism is a good way to live. Self preservation and peace are very important, and meditation to find out who you are is necessity for everyone.
The easy way out is to completely deny any possibilities what-so-ever and blindly go through life with a ton of apathy about the after-life. But the fact is, the time will come when you are in a situation where you need someone to help you. And sometimes you just can't do it alone.
The bottom line is that there is something out there. There are reasons why things happen, and I'm sick of the hardcore and punk rock mentality that it's "uncool" to believe in God, or have faith in anything, or to be entirely optimistic. For the first time in my life, I can say that I am close to being 100% content with myself, and I think that it is because I have been trying to grasp that better person inside of me through a higher being.
I appreciate the counter opinions that others have, but debating them with me will do no good. I don't mean to offend anyone by this except for the fag christian straight edge kids, or christian hardcore kids, or just plainly obnoxious christian kids who try to sell the ten commandments door-to-door for money for their already 7 million dollar Baptist churches filled with conservative, singing-and-praising-the-lord-every-morn' white, rich faggots. (as a side note, I really hate cult like Baptists that go on ski trips with their churches and have youth groups that start corrupting children at the age of 4 to 5 by giving them coloring books with Jesus in them. Those kids then end up donating money to their parishes all of their lives until they're 85 and homeless because they gave their money away to the conservative party's stickers for the upcoming election since Baptists and Republicans go hand-in-hand.)
I'm finished.
Believe in God, folks. He'll get you places. He's a good thing, don't try to deny that.
We'll see ya. |

I got a speeding ticket last night.
81 in a 65.
I'm thinking that I'm going to be losing my license for a little while and I really hope that they let me drive to school and work.
I was on my way home from Fairfax hanging with Jason and his dudes before they leave for tour.
I wasn't planning on going anywhere until like 10 when they asked me to come.
I shouldn't have gone!
I really dont know what to say to my parents either. This fucking sucks. |
