Sayonara Daisuki Na Hito

For those wondering that means, "Goodbye my favorite person" or "Goodbye my love". Its Japanese, a them song of a Japanese Drama that I watched years ago and have now just hunted down again since I just remembered it. Its really a beautiful song.

Well,I need to write this before I forget again.I 'm really bad at this blogging every day thing. Not that many people read it, ah well.

Elections are finally over. DEEP BREATH...

I have more free time now, though it doesn't feel like that yet. The Replublicans took the house, Democrats kept the Senate at least. If the Repubs had taken both I think I would of gotten out of the country today had it been possible...Still, its upsetting.Night surprising, but upsetting that people are blaming the Democrats...and now the Republicans are saying the Democrats need to "Work with them"... It makes me want to scream. Trying to "work with them" and compromise, its what the democrats have been trying to do these past two years.

I really hope things look up by 2012 and we can get Obama reelected. My only happiness now is that neither O'Donnel (I'm not a witch, I'm you!) and Angle didn't get elected. Thank goodness.

What makes me the angry the most though, is those who complain and don't vote. Thouse who don't educate themselves on who their voting for...but one thing that really rubbed me the wrong way during election season is that no one was willing to do anything but vote. Apathy. Apathy is my pet peeve. This I have discovered.

Should you vote? Most definitely. Voting is a right, but I think people ought to look at it as a 'privilege' as well. not because it is, its not and nor should it literally ever be a privilege...but especially for us women.We've only had this right or 90 years. In reality, thats not very long. Not in comparison to so many things. I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't take it or granted. Vote every election. It does matter.

What really gets me though is people who aren't willing to do much of anything. I see people who complain, and who will vote yes,but when push comes to shove thats all they do. Voting does a lot in the world of making a difference, but you can make even more by helping on the campaigns. I support rallies whole heartedly and I'm not trying to tear them down, I'm there at nearly every one...but rallies can only do so much too. You should fight for someone who WILL make a difference to get elected.

It just irritates to me (especially those who say they will help but when push comes to shove, don't)



School...school is what makes me thing I have no free time at all.
