Nude, So What?

I know recently Vanessa Hudgens was nude in some photos that she sent to her boyfriend. I guess what sucks is that her personal photos got leaked. But should she really be ashamed of being nude? I read an article today on MSN.com, here it is: Commentary on Nude Celebs, MSN , and it has no nude shots of celebs, it just comments on nudity being such a big deal when it comes to celebs, and I have to say I agree with the author. Why are nip slips such a huge deal. We were all babies who needed nourishment once, and so we used them to feed from. Now as adults, we’re all up in arms against seeing one. Women who try to breastfeed in public get shamed, and sent to the restroom. Why should women have to feed their babies in dirty public bathrooms…gross. Do you want to eat in a dirty restroom? Didn’t think so. Now I’m all for modesty, so a cloth diaper over the head of the babe should suffice, but moving to the bathroom…uh no.

So yeah, what Vanessa did wasn’t really responsible, but I’m not even gonna give her mistake the time of day, there’s way bigger things to talk about than some pre-pubescent girl nude…seriously if you want to see a naked female at least pick an adult looking one.  Why don’t we talk about things like the problem in Darfur or our terrible education and healthcare systems like we talk about celebs? We’re sick.

30 Days of Nothing, and The Game Plan

Yesterday, I had a night out at the movies with my cousin and friend Sureel. We saw 30 Days of Night and Game Plan. First off Sureel loves Vampires, and I think they’re pretty entertaining. However, if you’re a die hard Anita Hall fan, Interview With a Vampire type, or have gotten swept up by Stephanie Myers’ Twilight series, I suggest you don’t see this movie. Also if your a fan of movies with plot and character development…don’t see this movie. Before I saw this movie I was interested in seeing a new take on these familiar monsters. In the commercials they don’t seem like the traditionally elegant, seductive, and alluring undead; and they aren’t, which is fine, but at least tell my why they aren’t. There was no plot or character depth whatsoever. I mean its cool that their take on Vamps was new and looked stylistically different, but why, and what else about these things were new and/or different compared to their traditional counterparts? I don’t know, and you won’t find out from seeing the movie either. In addition, the movie tried desperately and failed miserably at adding a layer of depth with the human characters. Josh Hartnett (Eben Oleson) and Melissa George (Stella Oleson) played estranged husband and wife law enforcement. The chemistry between them was as cold as the Alaskan landscape surrounding them, despite their attempts to show rekindled love. Also there were the relationships between the townspeople, which tried to give the town the feeling of Cheers, the place where everybody knows your name. Still even that had an air of dryness. I don’t even remember any music playing in any scenes. Just snow. Everywhere there was snow, and cold. They could have made a movie about having to staying in and playing card games during these 30 days, and it would have been more entertaining. Like 30 Days of Poker or 30 Days of Charades, the Vampies could play too. Actually the movie was kinda funny. I laughed, a lot considering it was a …cough…scary movie. I don’t think the humor was intended though. But hey I had to entertain myself during the entire thing. Plus there were too many inconsistancies to count. For example, the head Vampire rubs blood all over his head, then 3 mins later he’s pristine. Also, during the movie its not always night. I mean its always dark, but you can clearly tell day from night, the day is more of a grey, overcast and the night is pitch black. Still if the director allowed there to be a clear separation of day and night, then the entire story, theoretically, falls apart. If its grey, then there’s sunlight streaming through the clouds…that’s UV light…so the Vampies would be stopped. So they should have kept it black all the time. Also the during points of the movie and at the end the Vampires set fires to the town. Fire gives off UV light. In fact even hot iron gives off UV light. So again, they should have died. I guess one could argue that it has be UV from the sun, but during this movie Eben (Josh Hartnett) shines an electric UV light on to a female Vampie, and she dies. Ok, so overall it was terrible movie. The best part was the poster in the Sheriff’s office which read: Snowmobiling and Alcohol Don’t Mix…Don’t Drink and Ride.

So since that movie sucked, we decided to see Game Plan with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Madison Pettis. It was a cute family film. Madison was a highlight, she’s a good actress for her age. The movie came off a tad bit corny but hey its a Disney film. And Disney plugged about all of its television shows with Madison’s character Peyton watching shows like Hannah Montana and Suite Life with Zac and Cody. I laughed though, and it was a warm feeling I left the theater with after seeing this. I would watch it again like on DVD during Thanksgiving or Christmas with the family, but that’s what it is a film to watch with the family.

What The French, Toast?

Have you seen the Orbit gum commercial? The one where the wife walks in on her husband and his mistress in his office and since they’re chewing orbit gum they can’t say bad words so all these hilarious euphemisms or used instead…LOVE IT!!!!

Dirty Mouth Test 37

A woman bursts into an office holding a box. She scowlingly says to her husband: “You son of a biscuit-eating bulldog.”
Husband: What the French toast
Wife: Did you think I wouldn’t find out about your little doo doo head cootie queen?
Mistress: Who are you calling a cootie queen? You lint-licker!
Wife: Pickle you kumquat!
Husband: You’re overreacting.
Wife: No, Bill, overreacting was when I put your convertible into a wood chipper, Stinky McStinkface!
Mistress: You Hoboken.

All three of them start fighting, but because they were all chewing Orbit gum, none used dirty language.

The Orbit spokeswoman is off to the side and says, “Fabulous! New Orbit Rasberry Mint cleans another dirty mouth.”

Creationism is silly…No You Are.

I don’t say atheists are silly. I don’t say anyone’s beliefs are silly. So don’t say mine are. Just respect them as I do yours. That is all I ask. I can’t make you believe what Ido, as you can’t make me believe what you do. God has worked for me, and just let me live that way. Thanks. I’m happy because of God, so let me be. I let you be. I get hurt when people ridicule my beliefs. Its like saying oh its funny that you have self-confidence. My beliefs are a part of who I am. So don’t marginalize them, cuz thats marginalizing me. I’m an Molecular Bio major, I have a strong background in science, but I have an even stronger relationship with God, yes a personal one. While I am well versed in both theology and modern science they do not conflict with each other. Only people have caused conflict between them. Just don’t dis anyone’s beliefs, its just not cool.

Don’t Be Stupid…Stay a Virgin While You Can.

Hey, Virginity is important, and if you choose to hold on to it until the day you die, great, if you don’t great. What I’m saying is make a choice. Decide what is best for you. Don’t just let something happen, Don’t just save it to save it, and don’t just give it away either. And that’s why Virginity is important, if you chose it to be. I did. I’m a 22 year old virgin, why? I refuse to let some random good for nothing be the first to get me. NO F***ing way. My body is a temple nothing less than has a chance to worship here, I’m a temple but not a church, sorry only Jesus will take you as you are…I won’t. Unless you meet my standards and yes I’m picky. Also most guys just want sex, and then want to hit the road…I’ve seen too many of my friends hurt that way, while I am the only virgin in my crew, I cry much less than anyone I know, and I never go to STD clinics. So its a choice. For me its important, but to me sex is always important. Even if I wasn’t a virgin, I wouldn’t be having sex right now, cuz there is no one around I find worthy enough to have it with. So I’m waiting, I know no guy is perfect, duh. I’m not waiting for my Knight, but I’m definitely waiting for someone with long term potential.

Also let’s face it. Religion and Spiritual beliefs DO play a major part, and don’t try to put it all off on us Christians, because it’s not just us. While yes, I am Christian, and proud of it, its not the ONLY reason I have continued to be a virgin. Even if I wasn’t a Christian I would still be one. Sex right now just wouldn’t work for me. I’m tied to my emotions, to have sex with a bunch of different guys would be a mistake for me. Besides sex should be a celebrated act. Just because I’m a virgin don’t think I condemn sex. Sex is a good thing, and it should be enjoyed, responsibly. I truly believe God wants us to enjoy it. Just not misuse it. It is a powerful thing. A friend once tried strictly sexual relationship, ya know with no strings, she still got attached and had to work to get over the guy. That story is old though, and it happens to both men and women. Really the bottom line is know yourself. Do only what is healthy for you both physically and mentally. Make a choice also. If you know you want to wait, then wait. Stay true to that. If you really feel like you’ve met someone you appreciate and who appreciates you, and this the right time for you, and fits within your personal beliefs then go for it. Still be careful with your body, because your heart is tied to it.

Why?

Why is there still racism? Why do we judge others? Why are there people starving? Why are there people killing? Why are there wars? Why are people stupid? Why can’t we accept each other? Why are people doing drugs? Why are people hurting themselves, and others? Why can’t we help each other? Why do we hate? Why do we lie? Why do we fight? Why do we steal? Why don’t we change? Why are we dying? Why don’t we do something?

On a lighter note: Why do people send other people naked pictures of themselves when they’re a star on Disney Channel? LOL…Vanessa Anne Hudgens made a crappy mistake.  Naked…never do it naked Vanessa at least wear a bra and underwear, so can at least say: “Hey its like wearing a bikini!” NEVER do naked…plus its always better to keep a guy guessing, wanting more…naked just puts it all out there, and there’s nothing left for later, nothing to keep him coming once he’s had it all. LOL she sent a naked picture, and she was actually naked…amature.

Average Is Now Overrated

A lot of us do it, we login to Facebook or MySpace, to keep in touch with our friends past and present.  It’s nice, for me its almost like a tattered safety blanket, and leaving college doesn’t have to be so sad because if I need to catch up with anyone it’s just a click away.  I really enjoy these sites and otherwise like them, because they keep me close with everyone, and I can watch them all move on as I too move on, but no one is ever forgotten.   Ok, great, but enough with all the sentimental stuff.  I do harbor a bit of, well how can I say this, disdain for the MySpaces and Facebooks of the world as some are now using these sites to become famous.  Its a good idea, and I support artists and bands that I come across on myspace who are talented, but then there are the Tila Tequilas of the world who use it to promote their talent-less selves.  It just seems like we’re in a world where if you can get your name out there for any reason, then you’re now famous. What happened to people being recognized for actually doing something?  Like Paris Hilton, what does she do…seriously answer the question, does she do anything worthy of merit…no.  Where are the young people like Prince, Dr. King, or even Spielburg? They or getting older and some are already gone, who is going to take their places? Nicole Ritche? Come on.  Part of this epidemic of idiots being in the spotlight is the Media…duh. But its our fault too, including myself.  Why do we pay attention? If we stopped buying mags with these tards showcased in them, or watching these get famous quick reality shows, and showed the Media we want to hear more about real issues and people worth knowing, the self-obsessed do-nothings would dissappear, or realize what they do is not cute and try something else to keep our attention. 

Like when Lindsay Lohan said the paparazzi are keeping her from getting an Oscar, I almost died laughing.  She hasn’t earned one.  Underage drinking, driving your car into non-moving objects and snorting cocaine are not Oscar worthy moves.  How about making a movie with some substance…that might work, oh and give a worthwhile performance while your at it.  I actually liked Lindsay, and after Mean Girls, which was quite clever, she looked promising…then she got retarded.  I mean look at other young starlets like Scarlett Johansen, she’s a good actress, beautiful, and she keeps her profile positive.  Or Natalie Portman who is extremely intelligent and talented. Instead of blaming 3rd parties like the paparazzi they take control of their own images and make smart choices on how they are viewed by the media, and take good roles.

I guess I just feel like people like Lindsay and Paris are multiplying, not just in the eye of the public but around us as well.  Its not their fault, its ours.  We need to teach our kids and ourselves on what is worth publicizing, what is worth emulating, and live up to those ideals.  No more average, no more getting by and accepting ignorant obnoxious behavior from them or anyone.  Let’s promote people worth promoting.

Sister For Sale

Sister for sale, Sister for sale.  One self-centered, lying, lazy, delusional sister for sale.  My sister, Nina, one of the most terribly evil people I have ever met.  Or at least when it comes to me.  Some people are blinded by her wonderful acting and performance skills.  They are so blinded, that they have the image of a sweet, innocent, hard-working, kind girl.  When in fact she’s a modern-day monster.  I have no clue what her problem is, but she can only manage to be kind towards me when it is in her best interest.  For example today.  I was blow-drying and straighting my hair in the bathroom, when Nina calls to me from her room.  She asks for help on her school crossword puzzle, we did have a few run ins today by that point, but nothing serious.  So I help her.  Then later as everyone is sitting in the living room she suddenly and unexpectedly launches into an assault on my cleaning habits.  First of all I’m in college, I’m away from home about 9 months of the year, so my room at home is not very neat and tidy.  One reason is that while I’m away my family uses it for various things.  A second laundry room, storage…etc.  However, my room at school I keep really neat. The truth is I can’t really work or think in a small dorm room space that is also really messy.  However, my sister believes that I keep my dorm room a complete mess.  Everyone knows thats not true.  If my room at school does get messy I clean it as soon as possible, and I also clean my room at school about once a week no matter how messy it is.  Its kind of a weekly stress reliever.  So anyway she was talking about my room and how messy it is.  She’s only been there once!!! The one time I was moving out of the room! Of course it was messy, it was half packed up, I was going through the chaos of moving an entire room back home.  I tried to explain that to her, but instead she just cuts me off and goes on to try to embarrass me in-front of the family.  I really can’t stand my sister.  For some reason I’m on her hit list, and no matter what I do I can’t get off of it.  She also calls me white, all the time.  I’m not a white person, and I don’t have anything against them or any race, but still she tries to use that fact that I’m light-skinned against me.  She says that I’m not black, and how proud she is to be black, and how I’m so white.  Whatever! All of her friends are white, well one is Asian, but thats about it.  If she loves black people so much why doesn’t she hang out with them?  My friends are a great mix, I love all races and shades, she is such a hypocrite!!!  I’m so sick of my sister being kind to me when its convienent for her, and then attacking me with insults whenever the mood strikes her.  She gets on me for the most random things, like my freckles!?! WTF!?!  She loves to talk about how my freckles make me white…um…sure.  Do I talk about all of the thousands of mini-pimples she has on her face?  No.  Do I make fun of how dark her skin has gotten because she hates to bathe? No. What about how she acts as if her life is a reality show? She is so over the top dramatic, and she acts like one of the girls from Flavor of Love Charm School, can we say Larissa?  The really sad part is I’m really starting not to like my sister, I’m beginning to hate being in the same room with her, and her lies, her back talk, her negativity.  My sister is not my sister right now.  Nina is my adversary, she is someone I don’t like and don’t want to be around.  I wish she would change her attitude, but she is so stubborn, and refuses to listen to anyone or any crictism that it is impossible to get through to her.

A Second Chance

I Love NY, had the reunion show tonight. All I have to say is: 1. New York = Janice the Muppet, 2. Sister Patterson is really New York’s father and the guy she calls dad is just Sister Patterson’s gay lover. 3. Tango is Raphael, the Ninja Turtle in a human costume, who wanted to be on TV. 4. Chance is hilarious and needs his own TV show. I think my friend Sureel should audition, Chance is so lucky that Muppet face NY didn’t choose him. Sureel would be his match…lol, plus he’s not a lamb like her usual boys…lol. Chance is so funny, I crack-up hearing him, also if anyone noticed…Chance isn’t a poor man…HELLO people!!!!!!! Chance and his family live on a lake and they raise horses on a huge ranch…they are loaded. Heck if Sureel doesn’t marry Chance, I’ll take him…

Makes Me Wonder Too…

The new Maroon 5 single- Makes Me Wonder. Nice Song. It’s funny that this song came out now, right while I’m asking myself the same question.

Also, the song really makes me want to do something.  Like travel, (ahh yes there are planes in the video!) especially to Cali or somewhere sunny and amazing.  I’ve been looking for a summer internship and I found quite a few in California, only thing is, I dunno if I can get myself to pack my bags and go.
