Ugh, I am still hungover. Polaris is fucking hardcore. I am not used to drinking that much. It was fun.

Okay, I am a little more "with it" now. Bruce started his new work schedule today. He goes in at 12pm and gets off at 9pm. It is nice to have him here in the mornings, but I really hate being alone at night. I am very scared of it. I hate the dark. I am afraid I will be murdered. I want to get a job, but I am afraid I will have to work mornings, and then we would never see each other. But if I get a job with a similar schedule as his, I would be having to ride the bus at night...and that scares me more. I dunno, I wish I could work from home. That would be great. I wish it was Fall already so I could just start school and work study.
Yesterday we were driving through downtown, and all the protesters were out. There were a lot of people. Portlanders are really into protesting. It is cool. I have to say, I don't agree with a lot of the proposed immigration reforms...classifying immigrants and people who help them as felons seems is stupid. And it is not like they will be able to deport all illegal aliens tomorrow. I do think that people should take the proper steps to come to this country legally, though. I researched the immigration policies for other countries a while back and I found out that it is pretty difficult to gain citizenship in quite a few European countries. A lot of them even state that you must be fluent in the National language, as well. If I were to move to France, they would want to me to be able to speak French...they don't go out of their way to make it easy to only speak English in that country. Why do we make it easy for people to come here and never learn English? Just in my neighborhood, there are all kinds of shops that are completely in Vietnamese, Chinese, Russian...etc. I am not saying they can't honor their culture and their language here in the US, but why not speak English if you are going to live in America? I know that this country was basically stolen, and if we really wanted to make good we would hand it back over to the Native Americans...but that is not going to happen. So, get over it. There are generations of people who were born here and know nothing else. Plus, why aren't Mexicans concerned with making their country better rather than just leaving it for a new one? The reason Mexico is so crappy is a major result of American influence. Why not work on getting America out of Mexico? That is really what this is about...the Mexicans. People immigrate here from every other country on the planet, but this is really just about the Mexicans. My family is Mexican...from Mexico. They learned English...they became citizens. It is not easy to do...but, should it be? If you sneak into a country to work and live without following the proper (legal) channels of immigration, you are a criminal and you should be sent back. Sorry. America has been taking a crap on the rest of the world for a while now...quit trying to come here...stay in your own country and protest against America there. And the Americans that care about these immigrants should protest against Bush and his foreign policies. That is the real problem. People get too caught up in things without really looking at the big picture.
Whatever...I can't think about this anymore.
There is a girl on this site that I really cannot stand. I don't like to judge people based on internet only interactions...it is a tricky business because it is so diffucult to determine who the person really is. Which, I suppose, is the major draw of online interactions (for the most part). This site is very "community oriented" and a lot of people are real life friends as well, so I feel like I have more room to like or dislike a person based on how they act on SG. I wish I could just call this girl out for her asinine behavior. She is so rude and condescending. To make things worse, nothing she says is ever really that spectacular...but, everyone acts like it is which just fuels her behavior. I know that I can't possibly love everyone on this site...just like in the real world. Except, in the real world I would call her on her bullshit....and possibly hit her in the face. So, instead of being really immature and starting shit, I am just going to let it out here so that I won't hurt anyone. I HATE YOU, YOU STUPID CUNT! Stop posting...just stop. You don't know everything about everything...so quit acting like you do. And everyone else....stop licking her ass! You are so far up there, I can see you when she opens her mouth. Okay, I think that was a pretty healthy way to deal with my anger. Good for me.
