No Money
It sucks having no money. I didn't think the failing economy would affect me much, a little naive yes, nevertheless I did not guess my meager earnings would dwindle so drastically. First I get charged four over draft fees from BOA and I try to fight it but its pointless. Then I only get scheduled 2 days for work next week. What do they expect me to do?!! Now I understand the starving artists out there. Its been tough but I suppose this could just be a test to better myself. Learn how to not be so dependent on my parents.
School is nearing its end and I am sad I must admit. I have had so much fun this semester I can't begin to explain. Meeting so many new people has been exciting. Most are from the newsroom but some from work too. Change is good.
I need money people. I think its back to the streets for me. Which reminds me of that song chasing pavements by Adele.
"should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements?" I don't know if thats what this song is actually about but thats the definition on urbandictionary.com.
Good grief!

A bittersweet victory
Horray! Obama won.
Boo! Prop 8 passed.
I honestly do not care about peoples religious convictions on this matter, it is a basic right that should be afforded to everyone. No matter what sex you are you should be allowed to choose who you want marry. This will come back to haunt Americans in a way that I can't even forsee. Gays represent a large portions of Americas economy and they will be sure to use that to their advantage as a bragaining tool. Today California made a mistake by passing this proposition.
When blacks wanted to vote and whites said they couldn't, did they give up? No.
When women wanted to vote and men said they couldn't, did they give up? No.
I hope gays and lesbians don't give up. I know they won't because this is an injustice that should not an will not be overlooked.

Its about time
Barack Obama was elected President of the United States of America tonight. Millions of people are in a state of excitement for the most poignant thing about this election is that a change is imminent. I do believe that americans made the right choice tonight. I could be a bit biased on that matter, considering i'm a democrat, but nevertheless this is a turning point in our 221 year old nation.
One thing is certain tonight, millions of Americans will remember where they were the minute that they heard that an African American was elected as our next president. What makes me so proud right now is to realize that there is hope yet for America. Eight years ago we chose Bush as our president, and now we know that was the wrong decision, we will have to deal with that for sure. But the fact that America saw a problem and chose as a nation to elect someone to fix it gives me a great sense of pride to live here in this great land. I just hope that Barack Obama is up to the task of tackling on the economy, the climate problems, two wars and so many other issues.
Change is in the air. I can feel it.
