Camping's Ideal Apocalypse

So, the world was supposed to end Saturday. Some people said at 6 while others said at 9 p.m. Bottom line is we are still here and people that spent life savings on apocalypse billboards are probably really pissed and poor. I would be too.

Really, who did this Harold Camping guy think he was??? I am extremely open minded when it comes to religion. I am a Roman Catholic myself, but I don't mind being around people with different spiritual backgrounds. If you are a satanist, you do you hun. I am not God, I don't have the right to say where you go.

But there is something about Evanangelists (spelled right?) that is very unsettling. They always seem to try to condemn people to hell. If you watch Harry Potter, you're going to hell. If you like to watch shows on NBC that are by Athiests or Jews...you're going to hell. Basically, earth is hell to these people. I can only give my opinion on the matter. I saw a movie called Jesus Camp about a group of devoted Evanangelist kids and their teacher. This group was extremely pro-life and worshiped (I mean literal on-their-knees) George W. Bush ( the son). This one girl talked about other Christian religions (i.e. Catholics) and described them as zombies. I would like to defend my spiritual background in the matter that I find our practice in standing up and sitting down very sacred. It's a practice that has been with us for many centuries to listen and learn. I think it's fine what other religions do, but don't bring down others on a documentary on netflix!

I guess, I am for once prejudice in a fellow Christian religion, which is sad. These Evanangelists are just too out there like Lady Gaga and it's extremely hard to get where there going at. I think Camping should quit trying to figure out when the world's going to end, it's making his own followers look bad spending so much money for nothing. People, I am trying to say we should just enjoy life not anticipate the end. If you believe in heaven or hell, cool, so do I. If you're an athiests, cool, lets be friends and talk about something else. Let us try not to change others. Love thy neighbor!

Virginal in the South

I am reading the book, "Sex and the City" by Candace Bushnell (nothing like Carrie Bradshaw) and have so far accept that Bushnell will not mention the subculture of sexuality: virgins.

On that I happen to be. First I would like to say that I am not going to throw a hissy fit. I am respect her material even if it is nothing like the show (I am a great fan of). Still, girls in their twenties that choose to wait till "the one" are not considered great characters. Unless we are carrying God's child (I do hope that never happens to me), we aren't really considered a role model.

Sookie Stackhouse from the HBO series is a great exception, but notice how there aren't many episodes of her as a virgin. The minute she sees Bill the Vampire, she knew she wouldn't be a virgin for long.

In my case, it's different. I don't have vampires around and have high expectations. I admit that that is overboard, but I really do prefer for the one. I admit though, it's tempting to just get it over with. Just go to a party and get the whole messy thing done. Just to see what's the big deal about it. In my heart though, I feel like it wouldn't be worth it.

Because I am a virgin, finding a true guy has become difficult not because I am a prude, rather because its a sport for guys to be to first. I could see the appeal. For them it's like being Christopher Columbus finding new land. Like I said before, it's considered a sport to get the virgin, making it extremely difficult for me.

So, here I am waiting, wondering if I am such a virgin, why do I know too much about sex? I give up on wondering and just consider it a gift. I pray each day that with every passing man the one will be closer.

Still, as sad as this sounds, romance and sex are not at the top of my lists. It's independence and travel. How sad is that?

Exams, You Understand

I have to keep this quick, mainly because this is probably the last time I will use the schools internet for the semester. I haven't been posting not because of drama, rather because of my studies. I am right now on edge on my last test. I PRAY I passed the course. I mean that I actually did the sign of the cross five times before the exam. I am still praying. Why do teachers have to wait so long to give the grades out? Ugh!

So my last one is coming up, but this is actually a easy one. That would totally suck if I failed the class I claimed I could do with my eyes closed. Shit! Now I am actually nervous about this test.

Candy and I have been a little on edge. I have been introduced to one of her friends that I will call King (she is a girl and heterosexual). I call her that because she likes Stephen King. King is okay, and really hates Bunny. I don't know how I really feel about her though. I saw her doing some hardcore drugs last week, and I am not really comfortable with that aspect. I get it if you use to relax and there is no future harm (like mary jane) but they things they had were too much for me. And I say they. She lives with two other guys her were total a-holes and i think she is seeing one of them.

I hope to write again soon. A lot more will probably happen. I am doing online courses soon and will have more time on my hands. Please pray for my grades!
