PROP 8 - good read!

My very awesome friend D made an amazing post about prop 8 which is everything I started to say in my previous post but didn't have the energy to do so. READ IT, all of it!!! I'm sure it'll give you a different perspective on the fight for gay rights -

I think it's the Aquarian in me, but I have so much passion for radical change and humanitarian efforts. I'm trying to reason how I could accomplish this while still maintaining the prestige and status that my parents 'expect' of me. I want to find a career in grassroots organizing. But I know that doesn't pay shit. I'm totally fine with that - but I'd be lying if I said I was fine with having my parents (ok, my dad) be disappointed in me that I didn't follow through with my dream as an attorney. So as of RIGHT NOW, I realized that I am going to have to sell my soul to corporate America for a couple years in the legal field in order to gain that prestige and power that is NEEDED 1) for my parents and 2) in grassroots political action. Because let's face it - those couple letters after your name, whatever they may be (PhD, PsYD, JD, MA, MS) gives you the leverage needed for change. THIS IS THE PLAN and I need to stop deviating from it because it makes me so goddamn anxious thinking about post-undergraduate life.

ANYWAY, I hate Beyonce. And I hate the radio. Please listen to her new song "If I were a Boy" and tell me how retarded she is for agreeing to use her talented voice on such crappy lyrics. I'm not even gonna go into some in-depth lyrical analysis because it's not deserving! I'll probably be even more heated once I watch the music video to this song. Ugh.....stay tuned.
