how do you know that what you think is reality is really reality?  How are you positive that reality isn't just a figment of your imagination?  How do you know you exist?  How do you know I exist?   Speak your peace. (:

We live in a world of worse-case scenarios. We cut ourselves off from hoping for the best, because too many times, the best doesn't happen. But every now and then, something extraordinary occurs.And suddenly, best case scenarios seem possible. Every now and then, something amazing happens. And, against our better judgement, we start to have hope.   Speak your peace (:

 From accidents to insane neighbors,  decriptions of how my night went with a group of friends at a party always end up with the words "DANNNG you guys are crazy!" Now I'm a reasonably calm person and I like to enjoy myself when the occasion arises, but has the line between a good time and a crazy night out been blurred in the eyes of those beyond my years ?

I'm working on making my own library so i'm asking you're opinion on what books i should read. However, no animes or comic books please. i want books with a little more substance. (;

haha. i decided to pull a joe move and make a pointless debate.  i haven't made any kind of debate in a long time so whatever. i'll make an intelligent debate later (:

Proposition 8, also known as the Eliminates Right of Same-Sex Couples to Marry Act, will appear on the November 2008 ballot in California. It was previously titled the Protect Marriage Act. It has also been known as the Same-Sex Marriage Ban or the Limit on Marriage Amendment. If it passes, it will add a new constitutional amendment to the California Constitution that will have the following text: "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California." The ballot title for the measure says that Prop. 8 "eliminates the right of same-sex couples to marry".

From Juno to The Secret Life of an American Teenager, the issue and topic of teen pregnancy has been brought up a lot lately. Whether it's the girl was sexually assaulted or got hungover or hung around the wrong people or "is a whore", the rates have been increasing a lot over the past decade.My family all thinks it's stupid that a girl who has so much going for her could get herself pregnant. Then we find out that my cousin got knocked up. She's not a whore, she wasn't drunk, she hangs out with good people, she wasn't raped. I know for sure she isn't stupid either. Yet something like this still managed to her out of all people. It really depresses me, since she was one of the people I looked up to, and now I'm just not sure.How do I deal ? I mean, it's not like i see her in the same light anymore...I guess I'm kind of disappointed in her...

can you forgive someone that hurt you ? can you be okay with the person after they betray you ? are you too trustworthy ? do you not trust people enough ?

i love both crews and i love them both to death, but when it gets down to it, i'm not sure if i'll be able to do both.if i have to choose, which one should i stay with ?
