So...I'm not much in to politics. I don't like when people argue or lie. I have been watching debates and all the news that follows. Its irritating to say the least. I have come to the following conclusion:
If Nicki Minaj and Honey Boo Boo are for something, I am against it.
So. I have sent in my absentee ballot (so convenient) and I feel good about it.
I almost didn't vote, but remembered something one of my professors taught me:
"Women fought so hard to vote. If you don't vote, you are not respecting the women who fought for you to have equal rights."
So, I am thankful for those women who gave me the chance to vote. And for all the freedoms we have. Mostly, I am thankful that I have never seen an episode of Honey Boo Boo and I will not ever be a Nicki Minaj fan.
Weird post, but I am hoping to still be friends with people who view things differently than I do :)
Anyway, vote if you can. Or don't. My friend always says, "If you don't vote, you lost the right to complain." Please don't just vote so you can be a whiner...
Okay?
Okay.
And lets get down to serious business:
I ordered my first real grown up coat!!!! I got a mustard colored PEAcoat and can't wait for it to get here. I've been rocking a $10 coat for the past four years. It is red and a little bit thicker than a windbreaker. I am so, so excited!!!! I have always, forever wanted to have a peacoat and be like Ming, and now I am moving one step closer to being super cool like her. YAY!
Happy Trails :)

Okay I feel like sometimes we have the same brain because 1. I'm in search of my first ever peacoat! (Mustard??? Thats awesome) 2. I hate Honey Boo Boo not so much her because she is a child but the other night I had a dream and she was in it and I have been grumpy ever since. 3. The whole thought that women and men fought so hard to be able to vote makes me want to vote so I have been trying to be educated this year so I can be prepapred to vote.

ReplyDeleteYeah? I'm sooo glad!!!
DeleteMy saying about elections is: if you're going to vote, be an educated voter. Don't just pick someone just because you have the right to vote.
ReplyDeleteTotally fair!
