I don't know

I don;t really know how i define love. There are so many different definitions and so many feelings that its hard to decide if it really is love or if you are conflicting it with some other lustful feeling. To me, to love someone is to first have gotten to know them and that everyday you think about them and long to know more about them. You don't want to control them, but you do wish that you can know them on the level that exceeds their daily friends and acquaintances. You care about them, well thats romantic love. Love in general is the conscientiousness and care you have for someone's whereabouts in your life. You get to know them, want to be a round them, not want to be around them. You have these deep feelings as though you want to make sure this is a part of your life forever. my biggest question to myself is, "can I imagine my life 10 years from now without this person?" If you can, buh-bye, they only came for a season, but if you can't, I believe you can consider that you might be in love.

Thanksgiving: The New Fourth of July

Thanksgiving is even more patriotic than Fourth of July. You take away Thanksgiving, you take away someone's pride and joy, you decide to tell them the truth and they choose to deny it. "You're dwelling on the past." That's what my mom said to me when I shared with her the true meaning of Thanksgiving. She rather believe the 3rd grade storybook our pastor read at some dinner last week, than believe her pescatarian, progressive, radicalist child (exaggeration, I am pescatarian though). My mom did not want to hear it. You know what's also in the past? Slavery, yet my mom always brings up how black people worked hard during those times. If someone told her to feast and celebrate on that day, she would freak and call them racist. But everyone always seems to forget the Natives, it as if they don’t matter. “None of us were there to see what actually happened.” I know, thank God! That’s why William Bradford was kind enough to journal about the tough times in the new land and their savage occupants known as the natives. Trust me though babes, no body wants to hear what could stir up their comfortable little cups of tea. That might make it taste different, and the person is not used to it that way, so they don’t like it, without even opening their minds to this new way of drinking tea. My mom must hate how my teacher is teaching us all these things about America. She’s not even American, and I guess she still wants to see this country as the good place that started her life over. I bet when my mom hears this from some television show my some Christians, or adults rather, she will listen, just like every other thing Trevina or I have told her. She finds out somewhere else, and THEN its doctrine. How bogus. Thanksgiving needs to be exposed, not to make people feel bad or take something away from people, but to help them realize other people suffered in the past, and they never got the compensation or respect they needed. To remember them on what is known as thanksgiving, will be that respect and honour they need. When I’m and adult and living on my own, I am not celebrating Thanksgiving. When I have a family, with children, if they want to, I guess they can celebrate Thanksgiving, but in a different way.
Here’s the true story

Okay so I'm going write a public entry

I was still afraid of the judgement I might recieve from people I do not and will probably not ever know on this site.

Well, here goes a public entry of my feelings.

I am really trying to change things about my thinking especially. Its working, but then again, something always comes up to get me angry and back to my destructuve negativity again.

SO what do I decide to do now? I decide to not give up and revert to bad habits like I did before just because I don;t see things working out right away. I am getting better though by not giving up. I'll come back later b/c I have dinner.

Yeah well...

I celebrated my birthday on friday, the 7th. I'm seventeen now and I feel a change coming on. I'm not going to waste another moment wondering "what if." I'm not going to procrastinate, I'm just going to do what I have to do. I also have to remember to be realistic and to choose what is necessary for me to and what is not such a good idea. My weekend was alright too. I'll have t'say that I have nothing to really complain about. I'm an okay kid, and my confidence level should not be at this all time low. WHere the hell did my self-esteem go? i cna't continue on this path, I cant keep reverting back to old habits. I will not try to be someone I am not, that's for sure, but I know my self is capable of more than just merely existing and comfortably getting by. *Sigh* I'm going to bed, and dreaming about the scrumptious cake my mom baked for me that probably added a few pounds to my skinny frame. Good night

I am glad for OBAMA's win

No need for�the fear, no one wants to hear the voice of the closeted bigot who decided to jump out all of a sudden and scare the progressive Americans with their racism, prejudice, and fallacy. I didn't fully support either candidate, but I kow that it was definately President�Obama's time. I am so surprised though, about how people you see everyday and expect to act a certain way, end up acting in a way that you never thought possible. People still say the man is a terrorist and people still say that he's Muslim, as if being Muslim is wrong, alluding to the notion that Muslims and Arabs were responsible for terrorism in America (9/11 attacks in NY), and that makes him less American. You hear how ignorant those peole sound?�America gets a change, and people feel like they want to get involved, including me. Everyone talks about how my generation is apathetic, well we're going to get things done now. With the proper spirit, the proper tools, and the proper people, we will progress together as people and achieve things today that can better our future FOREVER. I'm grateful that I got to see this day, especially 3 days shy of my 17the birthday :)

Well here's today...

Went to a spanich church today. Well its at my regular church but there's a special Spanish service. It was great, I enjoyed the message, and it was also translated into English. I understood some of the Spanish parts though. I really should speak fluently by now, after learning the language for about 9 off and on years...Yeah so, I was still pretty moody today, feeling down, but eventually I brightened up and felt better, i found a sweater tunic, with gray and purple stripes on sale for about $6 at Target. Muy impotente...I also bought these colourful festive socks that helped me feel better. I'll probably wear them on Halloween. My hair feels sticky as hell from the honey I put in it thinking if I mix it with olive oil and water like the people on the internet did, it will help my hair. It works best as a deep conditioner that should be washed out. On wednesday or so, I'll wash out my hair.� So yeah, and I tried to get some homework done. I decided to make my entry public today, mainly because I have nothing to hide, and because I'm feeling that since I'm new to this site, I should at least show my face here once before I run back into my protective shell�again. There's so much more to me than I could ever describe on any of these websites, but the basics are that I'm a junior in high school, I live in the United States, too paranoid to specify where exactly, and my family is from Jamaica. I love reading, writing, listening to glorious music, spending time with family and friends, as well as drawing, singing, dancing when I can, eating, despite how skinny I am, and what else? Well that's the jist of it. My entry is kind of a bore, but I gues that's why i made it public...

    PEACEBUNNY's Interests:

    About Me: I am someone who rather not sum up all the qualities and life experiences in this one space since I can not even do such in a journal entry about my one day. Not because I think I am better, and I am definitely not, but because I don't know where to start...still though, I am a very nice person, I love people even though I do like to spend time by myself to reboost and reevaluate so that I can actually be around people and respect them. I am not one of those "I hate humankind" people and I do not hate America, there are somethings that I do rant about and call out and express myself strongly about and it upsets people, so I am working on saying it in a way that will get my point across and not so harshly. I am a Christian, I am a writer, I am a woman, I am a Black American (Jamaican too), I am a pescatarian, soon to be veg. I am still kind of afraid to be passionate about what I believe in as a woman, black person, and pescatarian not because I am ashamed but because I do not want to preach to people and tell them what to do and because most times they aren;t even listening. Everyone listens when I talk about Christianity though so yay for me!

    Interests: Christianity, the Bible, Islam, Buddhism many other religions, Vegetarianism, Music, Writing (Poetry included), Art as in drawing paintings and their history, I love History of all kind by the way, except for American, but its not that bad I guess. I love dancing, singing, hanging out with my family, friends, learning new things, ranting about and also discussing controversial topics. I watch television and I know the evils so spare me, I like the computer and I like taking pictures even though I don't have another camera other than on my cell phone. I have many more interests like boys for example, they are an interesting species to observe and interact with :)

    Favorite Music: The Cribs, Run DMC, Babyshambles, Death Cab For Cutie, The Charlatans, Naughty By Nature, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Kooks, Public Enemy, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Lupe Fiasco, Late of the Pier, and many MANY MANY more, trust me, but I really like reggae, rock, hip hop (old skool except for Lupe), some techno and nuevo tango

    Favorite Movies: Oh No, too much to fit here, but I really love the movies Waking Life, Freedom Writers, DreamGirls, Next Stop Wonderland, Marie Antoinette, DIe HArd with a VEngence, Something NEw, Clueless, MOulin ROuge, Shrek, MEan Girls, A Knight's Tale, The Dark KNight and really there's so much more films I enjoy that I have to add later...

    Favorite Television: The Mentalist, Life on Mars, The New Adventures of Old Christine, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Psych, The Simpsons, Boondocks and more

    Favorite Books: the Bible, it has everything yo...but I really like the books A Lesson Before Dying, End Game, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and much more can't really think of anymore right now
