I woke up today and didn't know it was Friday. I guess I knew but I didn't know 'know' in a sense.
Last Wednesday (or was that Thursday?) we went to the doctor and he commented my weight. He said that I need to gain weight, which is weird, because my mom constantly tells me that I need to lose weight but I have a doctor saying that I need to gain. I weigh a 140-145 and I'm 5'4" so I'm really confussed. I think I look fine, I don't have problems with my weight, but I have a doctor sayin that I need to gain and a mother sayin that I need to lose. Another thing, I'm amazed that I still grow. The last time I went to the doctor (before this one, was Jan '08) I was a 5'2" exact and now I'm a 5'4"... kinda fast.. don't you think?
So, I still haven't wrote anything on my discussion on the spread of the Communism War which is due on the 27th of May. I don't have much sources because there's no library around here! Vaffanculo!! I'm really really annoyed of the fact. I know what to write, but there's no sources! Gahhhh!!! What the hell am I gonna do?! *aahhh* I'm gonna hide if my professor [don't really know why I prefer to call him 'professor'] asks for my paper. Oh, and my Spanish teacher is being a pain again. Me thinks he's got some serious mood swings. Anyways, he called me up this morning and just kept on going on and on in spanish! IN Spanish! He spoke in spanish!! I couldn't understand a word he was saying!! So I just kept on saying 'Si' because that's pretty much all I know! Oh my god, I'm so dead in spanish.. I desperately need to learn it.
Anyways, an old friend of mine called me up, Amanda. Amanda is a friend of mine since I was in the 7th grade, she was around in the 2nd grade by that time. I met her through another friend, Stephen. So yeah, she called up, we had a nice long conversation. Boring, if I may say. Amanda changed a lot, and that's what made the conversation long because she kept on pointing out her views, and me of course, are against it. So basically, when she said that she's not for gay marriage or she's for prostitution and all that crap. I couldn't help but argue out my point, that's just how I am. If I don't agree, I'll say something, though most people think I won't but I would. I jsut really think Prostitution is wrong... its simply against on my beliefs.The thing is, prositution has become embeded in modern society's economy (it is an official factor) Meantime, In countries where prostitution (male and female) is legal....it is highly controled, there are lest risks of discease or abuse...the male and female prostitutes are protecting under government decrees, they are constantly medically tested and certified to "practice"....so forth and so forth..What i'm trying to say is; if it happens around the world (whether we like it or not) wouldn't it be better if it was at least controled and monitored? I think we have to realize that it's happening whether it's legal or not and that by legalizing it at least it would make it safer for those who choose to do that. But then again, I'm on the fence of the legalization of prostitution... my first thought is a woman should be able to use her body as she chooses, but then I also think that it isn’t a choice because many women are forced into prostitution because they fear poverty and abuse then perhaps the legalizing of prostitution would bring with it regulations and health standards that could potentially reduce the risks associated with prostitution. Then again if a woman is most often forced into prostitution doesn’t this just legalize the oppression of these women? As for homosexuals, gay marriage.. Well, I treat gays and lesbians just like I treat anybody else - if you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you, if your a jerk to me, I'll be a jerk to you. People are people, no matter who they love - some are good, some are bad, most are somewhere in between. The same would apply if I was approached by a same sex couple - if they were nice to me, I'd be nice to them, if they were rude to me, I'd be rude to them, just the same way I'd be to a straight couple. The only time I might be a little upset is if a lesbian approached me looking for a date - and even then, if she asked nicely, I'd politely tell her sorry, I'm straight, and I don't date women. If she asked rudely, I'd rudely tell her to step off, I don't swing that way. Just like that, I have no problems with homosexuals. They're still people no matter what. As for pornography, well I'm a Catholic, and in my religion it's wrong but truth to be said Its a part of life and society. Men and women enjoy it. It is a healthy way of expression in some instances. Some people can get overly obsessed and sexually preoccupied. I don't think it is bad but if a person becomes addicted, I come to think it's bad because some people who have self esteem issues may find it offensive or disruptive to themselves. It is mere fantasy, the images are not their true selves, although pretty darn close, ya know? I don't find anything immoral about it. People can look away if they choose to. But, like any car accident on the side of the road, everyone slows down and takes a peek due to curiosity. As for cloning, well, I don't really know much but to what I know I believe that it's unnecessary, unethical, and immoral.
