You know those girls you love to not like?
Well, I have those. They're so frustrating, I've never seen them be nice to anyone, not even their friends. Sometimes I just want to yell at them and hope they get the picture, and maybe they'll start being a little bit nicer. Then I found out some news today, and I realized that their lives are not perfect. It may not give them an excuse to be jerks to people, but that doesn't mean I should be a jerk back. I really need to step back and examine a situation before I just jump to conclusions. Sometimes, what I need is to be just a little more humble and open minded. I want to dedicate my life to people who have been hurt or mistreated or misunderstood, and come to find out I don't really know what that means. Sometimes you have to look past people's flaws to see the good, and I'm pretty sure they all have a good.
On another topic, I have no idea what I want to do when I graduate. Part of me wants to go to Shasta College and then transfer to a four year university, part of me wants to take a year off and join the peace corps, ( I'm not kidding) and then go to college, or go to Shasta for 2 years then join the peace corps then go to a university. I'm very undecisive.
And, what the heck am I doing with my life?
I know I want to be a preschool teacher, but I also want to work for the UN and can you do both those things at the same time?
Anyways, that's the most I've ever written I think.
Peace.

Okay, heres the deal. This part
"Sometimes, what I need is to be just a little more humble and open minded."
Couldn't relate more. I think you and I just need to realize that even though we have the best intentions when it comes to social justice and that sort of thing, we're pretty much jerks, a lot of the time (making fun of people's purses, criticizing the way they act/dress/talk/look) and I'll speak for myself here but I'm kind of in love with myself.
Also, funny you should mention the peace corps because I was seriously considering it. After college though because if you do their two year program they will pay off a ton of your student loans. Sweet deal. Lastly,
"Do you want half of this?" "No." "Sweet!!!"
Selfish.
I read about the student loan thing after I was already wanting to join the peace corps. Now who's the selfish one Kayla?
