Hello lovelies!

Ok, two points to make today and then I am off to watch some Telly!

Point one... According to YouTube, 80% of my viewers are female, so again, as in real life I am boy repellent!

Point two is about politics, feel free to skip it, I am feeling rant-y.

Point two... It is more of a question.  Should one fight for change, or should we trust the powers that be.  The question has been weighing heavily on my mind lately.  I miss the blissful ignorance and lack of interest I had not three months ago.  Only three months of interest and frankly I am exhausted, I am tired of keeping up to date on politics and where the country is going.  I am tired of hearing all the crazy things people do and say about their opinions.  I mean, it is an unwinable fight anyways, right?  No one side will ever admit defeat or will conquer all.  To many of my hours have been spent lately on politics and shock and awe at what people do or say.  So I have decided to disconnect.  A little less information I guess.  While less education is never the answer, I am afraid I have not the energy for a endless battle.  I love my country, and I love voting and all that but maybe a news fast is the only thing that can help me be sane again.  I don't know.  Maybe it is just because the election is coming.  I find that during election season, America is ugly.  We Politicians drag each other through the mud, people are all over the news talking about how the world is ending because of this side or that side.  Why must it get so nasty?  Why can't we be ADULTS and have a real, clean conversation about actual issues.  Yes, I have decided to disconnect and trust that everything will work itself out.  I will still vote and I will still look into each thing I vote for, as is the duty of every voter, but I will instead devote my time to finding interests that don't make me feel like politics in America makes me feel now.

That is my piece, this is my blog

Love : )

Goal Review Sunday

So... eventually each day will have a theme, like in the news and stuff and Sundays will be goals.  I will begin Goal Sundays by explaining why I want to achieve these goals and how I plan to get there.  Since it has only been a few days, obviously I haven't achieved any of my goals.  So, I will focus on explaining them to you, and myself! My first goal is to go to the OneNation Rally in Washington D.C. as I said in my blog I don't think it is going to happen because it is coming so quick and I can't afford to go.  If I had more time I would go, so my alternative to this is to see President Obama speak.  Why?  After watching Keith Olbermann's special commentary on the "Ground Zero Mosque" I have decided to get more involved with politics. He in fact changed my life, he has made me see that we have to stand up for what we believe in and act on our goals. I even mentioned it on my FB that he had opened my eyes.  You can watch it here:

  Go, it is a great video, even if you don't agree with him, you can appreciate his logic and his passion for rights is impressive. Well, I have no idea how to go about seeing the president speak, is that something you can google?? I want to see him speak because even on the television he is moving and inspirational! So I need to figure out how to find out where and how I can hear him. It is time I come out of my political shell I guess. Well, goodnight world : )
