What Have You Been Doing Lately????

what have you been doing lately????

have you thought about others??? and have you given back to the community, or even just one homeless person????

in a time where the economy is getting worse, despite their predictions, and people are finding it harder to provide for themselves, are you honestly helping someone??? on the T.V. they show all these programs about starving people, and poor living conditions in a third world country somewhere.... But what about the starving people, and poor living conditions right here in the U.S.????

Do you honestly look around you??? I don't mean just in your neighborhood, but in those neighborhoods you don't wanna go into.... now mind you yes some choose to live that way and could do better if they actually tried, but what about those who have no hope of getting out of the mess they're in??? and yes it is good to go to your local soup kitchen and help out, but have you ever had a conversation with them that was 30 minutes or longer???? have you heard their story, why they are were they are??? what if you where in that situation??? would you want someone to talk to you, to spend just a half an hour with you learning who you are???

well it was just something that was going through my head as I'm listening to the rain thinking about a nice guy i might while walking through the woods who was living out there... and was trying to get out but was having obstacles to climb over......

a look at people these days

today i was driving my mom and brother home during the high school rush.... which i should have known was going to be a mistake, but of course like always i didn't remember.... so i get to a green light and kids and adults are just walking out in front of the cars... there is no looking, no waiting for the on coming traffic to have a red light, just walking right in front of them..... then you have the ambulance who was trying to get over the bridge and none of the traffic getting out of the way.... and to top it off when the ambulance finally got through the mess of cars, the cars started to cut each other off.... i have thought about it for a little bit today and I've realised that no one has common courtesy any more.... everyone has to be first and no one better get in their way..... why have people evolved to this???? no one holds doors for anyone, no one lets someone who has less go in the check out line first, and god forbid you actually need something because most will look at you funny and turn away.... if there is hope out there for people to be civilized again or you have actually seen someone do something nice for someone other than because they have to, please tell them thank you..... at least for me...

a cat fight for men....lol

ok so yesterday..... i had to take matt to work with me while my mom stayed home sick.... while taking the dogs and my many bags.... so wouldnt you know that it had to be an interesting day.... and i bet you that it was only because matt stayed home from school and my mom didnt come in.... well before i even reached the front door mark had to talk to me in the middle of the street.... and when i asked him if he could at least wait til i got inside to talk to me he got mad.... that was a perfect start... so his story was that this "big bald guy" down the hall from him cursed him out for not holding the elevator.... but that mark called him a princess and a pussy.... so the "big bald guy" threatened him..... ok so it sound believable.... ive never known justin "the big bald guy" to go off on anyone for anything so i went on with my day..... come to find out that carmen witnessed the whole thing and was in the elevator with mark..... it wasnt justin who was in the wrong at all..... mark did get into the elevator and did close the doors on justin and justin did yell through the closed doors "you couldve held the door" well thats when mark started..... oh my gosh cursed justin out..... and the bad thing was that justin took the stairs so he got down to the first floor the same time mark did.... mark decided to fallow justin out and to continue to yel and curse at him... calling him more names and when he called justin a pussy again justin told him that if he didnt chill out that he was going to beat his ass...... and mind you justin is at least 2 times the size of mark.... but maybe mark was trying to make up for the fact that everyone knows that his girlfriend makes him cry.... i dont know what ever his problem was he probably needs to fix it because next time i dont think justins going to let it go.....

prison work

OK, so the economy is crumbling and there isn't enough money any where... there is no money for schools, shelters, even cities.... and yet we refuse to use the advantages we have to make life a little easier..... now back in the day maybe 1920's and up there were prison factories, and prison work shops... right???? and the merchandise that they made in the prison was sold to the regular public as a way for the prisoners to pay their way through their stay.. no matter how long they were in...well since the economy is in such a bad state that supposedly they don't have enough money to send to the distributors for food for the prisons... i believe that maybe we should start the prison jobs again... now i know that some of you might be saying, that's like a chain gang, and that its not fair to those who are in prison..... OK, so while the prisoners sit nice and cozy in their prison cell, using our money for food, furniture, clothing , and all their other "necessities"... we have people who work who cant afford all the nice things in life.... i think if we started up the prison farms, so they could raise their own produce.... and the access they could sell to local stores for a profit to the prison.... they should open up the workshops in the prisons again because when they had the prison workshops it gave hope to the inmates who got to participate in them because when they got out they had a job trade that they might be able to use on the outside to start over again... plus all the extra furniture, and other objects made, could be sold as a profit to help provide income for the prison..... now i know that this wouldn't completely help the whole financial crisis that's going on today but it would take care of a small portion of what eats up our taxes.... plus the inmates would learn useful skills that they maybe able to use in the regular world.... plus another thing to think is that if they were to have their own little farm kinda thing going on... then they could raise their own livestock, and produce their own meat and possibly have enough to send out to other stores....

what does age really mean????

OK, I know normally i don't talk about my personal issues on here but oh my gosh.... OK, so I'm 20 and i have a full time job... which right now I'm pulling doubles so I'm there from 830 am to 10 pm if not longer...... now my mom and i got into a car accident the Sunday before Christmas and we are getting our car fixed...

so naturally we got a rental car in the mean time so we have something to drive... well in order to drive the rental car i guess your supposed to be 21... so i can go and buy a new car, i can vote, i can die for my country but i cant drive a stupid rental car..... now in the accident my mom hurt her back so she shouldn't be driving.... so now we have to figure out how to manage me working doubles, my 7 yr old brothers bedtime, and my mom who's not supposed to be driving...... oh my gosh... and its all hertz..... because with Enterprise i would have been able to drive due to the fact that my mom isn't supposed to..... so what am i supposed to do about work??? and what is my mom supposed to do about not driving???? oh these stupid rules make no since....
