My dog Sasha

This morning I woke up to rather abnoxious sounds of my fat stupied dog barking and whinning right next to ear at exactly 4:29 am. Since then Ive been up. Now normally Id be prettty bugged but today is different. Todays the last day I get to see my dog. Ive had her since I was 9 and shes been there for a lot of hard things Ive gone through in these past couple of years. When my dad said that we couldnt afford to keep her the first time, I didnt really mind. Well I did but I wasent going to let my parents know that. They have a lot of things going on right now. But now that shes actually leaving I dont want to let go of her. Ive grown to love her so much, shes a member of the family. Ive been having to do many changes in my life resently and I dont like complaining, but shes really the only thing Ive felt like I need right now that I cant have.
Oh well, maybe Im just being immature about this. I really dont know.

Antigone

One quote that I liked from a passage in Antigone was "The time I’ll have to please the dead is far longer than the time I have to please the living." Im not sure if Im reading more into this than I should be, but I thought this quote meant more then just honoring the gods. To me, Antigone was also saying that if she did not give her brother the respect he deserved or the proper burial then it would bother her consious. And that is a very noble thing to do. Even though she could get into a lot of trouble, she still will do the right thing.

Family.

I never realized how much I love my family. And how not seeing my sister or dad in awhile effected me. This weeked was a flashback to like 7 years ago when everything was simple. When I liked being with them and didnt feel like an outsider in my own my family. And when all I cared about was making them smile or laugh. But now that I think about it, it wasent so great back then either. I was just to young to know the difference. But even when people do hurtful things you to you, you still love them and need them in your life. I just realized this soo i thought Id blog about it :)

Sooo Ive Been Reading

So Ive been reading peoples blogs about Mr Miclettes debate on homosexuality and what happened in his first period. But I would like to say something on behalf of the religious thing that I think Chritine brought up. I was raised in a Christian home for all of my life and I decided awhile back that it wasent what I believed and that I couldnt call myself a true Christian because of it. One of the reasons I felt this was that I couldnt wrap my head around the idea of a man loving a man or a woman loving a woman being wrong. That it was a sin to have feelings for someone? The way some people handle it can be seen as ignorant. Saying they hate someone for what they believe or feel. And for some reason Christians are given the reputation of hate homosexuals. But as I was able to talk more with other Christians, I realised that some had just as had of a time understanding it as well. But, because their religion said that it was a sin, they needed to believed it as a sin. I no longer consider myself a Christian but I feel like they're given a bad reputation. I think that open mindedness needs to be present for both people how believe being homosexual is right or wrong.

First blog!

Yay my first blog! I didn't really know what to write about so I guess Ill write about "My So Called Life." Angela continues on with her struggle of finding out who she is and what kinda of person she wants to be. She is starting to talk less and less with her close friend Sharon and hang out more with Rayanne, giving her a taste of freedom and individualiy. She also is becoming more confident and finally talks to her crush, although slightly pathetic, was a start to coming out of her shell. But at home, she is finding it harder to talk to her mom, saying she blames everyone and is almost afraid of her daughters coming of age.
