The feeling of being turned down for a lame job is one of the worst. Damn it. Damn data entry and dot com jobs. I'm so tired and frustrated.

Fine. Back to studying, which is much more pleasant anyways. I'm going to make more blueberry muffins for dinner. I will practice writing eloquently about American foreign policy and why we do what we do. Fun fun fun.

There is no real point to this. But I want to visit StalinWorld. It's no more disturbing than letting people tour Dachau and Aushwitz, or erecting that horrifying Holocaust museum in D.C. It's a shame so many people would rather forget and throw so much of our history away.

The anti-abortion folks with the massive photos of dead children had their lawyers out there today. oh how awful that we might have controversy and differing viewpoints on a (gasp!) university campus! how unthinkable that not all student share a liberal worldview! oh dear, what can we do to stop them from disagreeing with us in such a dramatic manner?!? Reading the letters in the Texan made me want to throw up today. I used to think conservatives were intolerant bastards, but lately it's struck me that the liberal camp isn't any better at all.

On days like this it is good I don't have a gun. I would be way too tempted to take my frustrations out in a non-constructive manner.

the liberal camp is better, since we strive to keep guns out of the hands of people just like you! :b

Too much of any one group is annoying. Conservatives are annoying in the Midwest, liberals are annoying in Berkeley (did you know we used to have our own anti-WTO foreign policy til the Supreme Court told us to stop it?) Give too much power or too much safety in numbers to any one group and they automatically become annoying.

Of course liberals are less annoying, since I agree with them :)

Go Berkeley!

Ahaha that is great! My school needs an anti-coporate kick back policy. ;)

I think what annoys me most is the lack of good constructive dialogue going on between the groups. (Though I did see some of it, so all was not lost).

Go Berkeley

Hehe, that's great. I love that about universities. They should all be confrontational. :D
