The time has come, my little friends, to talk of other things; of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings, and why the sea is boiling hot, and whether pigs have wigs. Calloo, Callay, come run away with the cabbages and kings.

To sleep, perchance, to dream

RUH ROH! It's been four days since my last post. I must punish myself by ingesting calories, and therefore gaining weight. Ultimately, the weight gain is the punishment. Or this whole ordeal is all about me really needing a Tall Java Chip Frappuccino. I'm not even going to tell you how long it took me to figure out how to spell frappuccino, but it wasn't fun. 

I'm all about sharing, really I am. But seeing as I'm not as anonymous as I'd like to be, unfortunately I have to keep my stories relatively PG-rated and edited a tad. Or I could just do the typical "my FRIEND had a weird dream about one of her ex boyfriends (who sucks a lot), and my FRIEND was wondering if that meant anything at all... no seriously, it's my FRIEND." I'm not going to do that. Just kidding, I totally lied, I definitely am going to do that. Now something I don't understand is, though I'm majoring in psychology, why people refuse to think that dreams mean anything at all. I don't think dreams predict anything, but from experience I know that when I have a dream about something, I tend to think about that something, and because of said dream my life changes just a little bit. So, while I don't think dreams necessarily MEAN anything, I do think they are representations of things a person is thinking about. Obviously dreams are just the minds interpretation of random messages being sent around the brain while you're sleeping, but if your mind is interpreting a certain way, that speaks volumes.


Someone stole my secret!!


And now for something a tad more serious and monumentally more disturbing. I've just found out that the University of Oregon's EMU lets people hold conferences and such, and allows retired professors to reserve the area for speeches and whatnot, but a neo- Nazi group is holding conferences there regularly, spreading their narrow-minded beliefs. They haven't committed any actions, they're merely discussing things, but it still remains so unfair that any group could collectively hate and sit around on their racist butts and spread the ideals of the murderers and bigots that should have died out long ago. We are so incredibly above any sort of hate. And if you're wondering, no I do not hate the Nazi party. I am disappointed that any fellow human could repress all emotion, all sympathy for man, and destroy anyone who was different. What would our world be like if every person destroyed a type of person they didn't like? Well, the world wouldn't exist. Because no matter how great a person is, how pure and inspirational and seemingly close to perfect, someone will always not like that person. It's not fair, but it's life. Hate is such an extreme waste of energy, it's so damaging and does absolutely nothing productive. The fact that humans can hate is an embarrassment to our species as a whole. The most frustrating point that I've been avoiding in this entire paragraph is that because of how amazing America is, allowing us to have free speech, these ignorant people can sit around in one of the most liberal areas talking about how this race or these religious people or those who are different should be eliminated. All I have to say to them is, please, grow a pair and fix whatever the hell you think is wrong with yourself, because obviously you're not satisfied with your own life if you feel like you must take someone else's life. Geez. 

What's going to help you breathe after that doozy? Is doozy even a word? The more I think about it, the more I believe I might've just made it up. Or spelled it wrong. It's all completely possible.
I found this next little article on some random Stumbled website. Being a woman, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. Y'all might not but you can feel free to express your dissatisfaction at my obvious appreciation of male bashing and sarcasm :)
