CULTURE iN AMEREiCA

CULTURE iS WHO YOU ARE, WHERE YOU CAME FROM, WHAT TRADiTiONS MAKE UP YOU AS AN iNDiViUAL.. AND i FEEL HERE iN AMERiCA PEOPLE AREN'T REALLY ALLOWED TO EXPRESS THEiR CULTURE COMPLETELY WiTHOUT SOME KiND OF OPPRESSiON FROM "AMERiCANS". ALTHOUGH, NOONE iS TRUELY AN "AMERiCAN"...AMERiCA WAS NAMED AFTER SOME GREEDY EUROPEAN THiEVES WHO STOLE THiS LAND FROM THE NATiVE iNDiANS, WHO ORGiNATED HERE. && BECAUSE OF THAT i FEEL AMERiCA SHOULD BE A PLACE WHERE EVERYONE OF DiFFERENT BACKGROUNDS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO PRACTiCE THEiR BELiEFS WiTHOUT DEGRATiON OF SO CALLED "AMERiCANS". AMERiCA iS SUCH A CONTRADiCTORY CULUTRE OF PEOPLE WHO SAY AND BELiEVE ONE THiNG BUT DO AND SAY ANOTHER WHEN WE THiNK THE CLOSE iS CLEAR. THEN WHEN WE ARE CAUGHT DOiNG SOMETHiNG THAT DiSGUST OUR COUNTRY WE TRY AND MAKE OURSELVES BELiEVE THAT WE ARE SO STRONG AND POWERFUL BECAUSE WE CAN COME BAQ TOGETHER. REALLY iTS JUST A FRONT FROM COUNTRY WHiCH TOTALLY iS BACKWARDS! HOPEFULLY WiTH THE ELECTiON OF BARACK OBAMA WE WiLL SEE SLiGHT CHANGES AND BETTERiNG OF MORALS HERE iN OUR COUNTRY A COUNTRY "WHERE ALL PEOPLE ARE FREE AND CREATED EQUAL" YEAH RiGHT!!

"FAKE" iS THE NEW "REAL" BARBiE RESPONSE

THE WHOLE BARBiE THiNG iS SO RiDiCULOUS. KiDS SHOULD PLAY WiTH DOLLS TO HAVE FUNN NOT TO LOOK AT A THE STUPiD DOLL AND iDOLiZE HER...i MEAN SHE'S JUST PLASTiC BUT YOU KNOW WHAT i GUESS THAT'S THE NEW THiNG TO BE FAKE AND PLASTiC TO HiDE YOURSELF. ALOT OF PEOPLE DO THiS BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN SO ACCUSTOMED TO WHAT SOCiETY SAYS iS BEAUTiFUL AND NOT WHAT THEY "THEMSELVES" iS CONSiDERED BEAUTiFUL. iTS SAD THAT PEOPLE LACK SELF CONFiDENCE SO THEY RUN TO THE NEAREST PLASTiC SURGERON TO GET A FAKE NOSE, A FAKE BUTT, FAKE BREASTS, AND FOR WHAT TO FiT iN WiTH SOCiETY'S FLEETiNG STANDARD OF BEAUTY.. i SAY iT S BULLSHiT LOVE YOURSELF AND THEN EVERYONE AROUND YOU WiLL LOVE YOU TOO! WHEN YOUR FAKE THAT'S ALL PEOPLE SEE.. A COVERgirl...BUT REALLY YOUR JUST A GiRL WHO COVERS YOUR FACE!! THiNK ABOUT iT iN THE END YOUR NEVER TRULY BE HAPPY WiTH YOURSELF AND ONE REASON iS, iS BECAUSE YOU CARE TO MUCH WHAT PEOPLE THINK AND SAY ABOUT YOU AND NOT WHAT REALLY MATTERS!

MORALS OR MONEY

HONESTLY, i AM DiSGUSTED WiTH THE THOUGHT THAT PEOPLE LOOK AT MONEY AS A GOD OF SOME SORT. EVEN TO THiNK AS MONEY AS SOMETHiNG WORTHY ENOUGH TO WORSHiP iS SAD. HOWEVER, OUR WORLD iS A SiQK PLACE && iTS SAD THAT PEOPLE FORGET ABOUT THEiR MORALS WHEN iT COMES TO MONEY. iM NOT ONE TO SAY iTS COMPLETELY WRONG BECAUSE THERE ARE SOME THiNGS i WOULD SACFRiCE iN MY LiFE TO HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO TAKE CARE OF MY FAMiLY. HOWEVER, MONEY OVER A LiFE.. iS JUST SiQK! ALOT OF PEOPLE DONT HAVE RESPECT FOR LiFE AND iTS A SHAME THAT LiFE iSN'T VALUED AS THE MOST iMPORTANT THiNG iN EVERYONE'S LiFE. YEAH, WE ALL KNOW MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND AND iT CAN MAKE LiFE A WHOLE LOT EASiER BUT WHEN YOUR WiLLiNG TO BE LONELY, WiLLiNG TO BE BACKSTABBED, WiLLiNG TO BE NEVER SATiSFiED iT CAN BE A REALLY CRAPPY LiFE. ALOT OF PEOPLE WOULDN'T MiND BUT i KNOW i WOULD. && i KNOW i WOULDN'T BE THE ONE TO LiE AND SAY i WOULDN'T MAKE THE MiSTAKE OF CHOSiNG MONEY OVER THiNGS i VALUE BUT i COULDN'T EVER GO TO THE EXTREME OF DISGRACiNG MYSELF AND VALUES OVER MONEY.

YU MAKE YURSELF LOOK BADD!

ALOT OF PEOPLE MAKE THEMSELVES LOOK BADD BY WHAT THEY SAY AND DO, THEN THEY GET MADD WHEN PEOPLE PUT THEY ASS ON BLAST! YOU CAN'T GET MADD AT PEOPLE iF YOUR ONLY LiKE 16, 17 GiViN iT UP TO EVERYBODY AND SHOWiN OFF ALL YOUR GOODiES, THEN WHEN SOMEONE CALLS YOU A WHORE OR A SLUT YOU GET MADD... NO SWEETiE YOU GOT iT BENT! WOMAN DEGRADE THEMSELVES BY STUPiD SHiT THEY DO. i MEAN i'M NOT ONE TO SAY ALOT BUT WHEN i DO SAY SOMETHiNG iTS RAW AND REAL AND NOT ALOT OF PEOPLE CAN'T TAKE iT... WELL iM RATED "R" SO iF YOU DONT LiKE iT CLOSE YOUR EYES AND PLUG YOUR EARS. FEMALES NEED TO REGONiZE THEiR WORTH AND STOP LETTiNG STUPiD THiNGS iNFLUENCE THEM LiKE "BOYS"OR MONEY OR EVEN DRUGS! RHiANNA DiD THAT TO HERSELF BY ALLOWiNG iT TO HAPPEN...AGAiN. SHE iS A WEAK WOMAN BECAUSE iF SHE WAS STRONG WOMAN SHE WOULD OF RiSEN ABOVE THE ABUSE AND ALL THE OTHER FAKE BULLSHiT LiKE "LOVE" AND LEFT CHRiS BROWN'S CHiLDiSH ASS. iF RHiANNA WAS A STRONG WOMEN SHE WOULD OF NEVER ALLOWED HERSELF TO BE BEATEN FOR A SECOND TiME... iN HER iNTERViEW WiTH TMZ SHE TOLD REPORTERS iT HAS HAPPENED "SEVERAL" TiMES iN THE PAST. NEVER COULD THAT BE ME BECAUSE AFTER THE FiRST TiME OL' BOY WOULD OF BEEN iN A FUQKiNG BODY BAG! WOMEN ARE THE PiLLAR OF LiFE AND WOMEN NEED NOT TO STAND FOR ANYTHiNG NOT HONORiNG THEiR WORTH. WOMEN SHOULD LOPVE THEMSELVES BEFORE LOViNG ANYONE ELSE AND CHERiSH THEiR BODiES BEFORE THEY ALLOW ANYONE TO EVEN LOOK AT THEM. WOMEN LiKE RHiANNA HURT THEMSELVES WHEN THEY ARE WEAK AND ALLOW A MAN TO PUT THEiR HANDS ON A THEM. A MAN iS A BiTCH, A WEAK LiTTLE "BOY" WHO COULDN'T STAND A CHANCE AGAiNST ANY REAL MAN BUT HE THiNKS HE'S POWERFUL WHEN HE BEATS ON WOMEN. i HATE AND i CAN HONESTLY SAY HATE WOMEN WHO DON'T STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES BECAUSE WOMAN LiKE THAT SET A BAD EXAMPLE FOR THE REST OF WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD NOT TO MENTiON YOUNG GiRLS LOOKiN UP TO THEM. i SO MADD WiTH RHiANNA BECAUSE i REALLY LiKED HER BUT WHEN SHE STOODD iN SiLENCE i JUST COULDN"T ALLOW MYSELF TO EVEN GO THERE WiTH HER. i AM SO DiSGUSTED WiTH HER DESiCiON TO STAY WiTH CHRiS BROWN'S ABUSiVE ASS... i THiNK SHE iS WEAK AND i HOPE SHE LEARNS HOW TO RiSE ABOVE HER LOWNESS!

iF I COUD GO ANYWHERE iN THE WORLD FOR A VACATiON FREE OF CHARGE... i WOULD LiKE TO GO TO AFRiCA, CONGO, TO BE EXACT! iT iS JUST SO BEAUTiFUL THERE.. AND ALOT OF PEOPLE DONT KNOW iT. "iGNORACE iS BLiSS" iS TRUELY A CLEAR STATEMENT BECAUSE ALOT OF PEOPLE HEAR TRAVEL TO AFRiCA AND PiCTURE SOME OF THE MOST iGNORANT THOUGHTS EVER, WHEN REALLY THEY HAVE NO iDEAL WHAT THEY'RE EVEN TALKiNG ABOUT. CONGO iS A BEAUTiFUL PLACE FiLLED WiTH ADVENTURE AND GLOWiNG iN THE SUN. THEY HAVE HUGE MALLS AND GREAT WATER FALLS, AWESOME AMUSEMENT PARKS AND SOME OF THE BEST NiGHTBLUBS iN THE WORLD. MY SiSTER ViSiTED CONGO WHEN SHE WAS 18 AND SHE FELL iN LOVE WiTH THE SCENERY. i ALWAYS LOOKED UP PLACES iN AFRiCA AND CONGO WAS ONE OF THE MOST iNTRiGiNG PLACES THAT CAUGHT MY EYE. i PLAN ON ViSiTiNG CONGO WHEN iM 21 SO i CAN HiT UP OF SOME OF THE NiGHTCLUBS!! i ALSO PLAN ON STAYiNG THERE TO DO ViDEO WORK FOR FUTURE GOALS OF MY OWN.
