You know what I hate?
People who believe that the world hates them, they've tried but can't do it, that they should just die, basically: I hate people who are negative of themselves for no reason.
They say life has no meaning: On the contrary, it does. Life is precious. You only get one. I mean, pain is inevitable but suffering through it is a choice.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not insanely optimistic, I do have my own dark moods, but I'm not like that all the time. My mother once told me 'Just because you feel this way today, doesn't mean you'll feel this way tomorrow' which couldn't be truer. You can't give up because it hurts to try. You'll never make it through life if your avoiding everyone because you were unfourtanate enough to meet a rude and inconsiderate person.
I know what it's like to feel alone, and I don't like it when others are that way. Thats why I try to be nice to everyone. Unless of course they bitch at me.
But why are people so negative? It doesn't make sense to me. Life is more enjoyable if you view it on the bright side. Or at least the dim one.
It's a little more understandable if you lost your parents or had a hard childhood. But if your parents died, they'd want you to be happy, no matter what. You have to try to keep smiling. Be strong. Don't cry every day. Crying is ok, it proves your still human, but if you mope about in your misery, you lock away your smiles. Maybe if the person was beaten as a child, and trying to run from the past, they need to stop, reflect, and find out how to be a better person, so they don't hurt anyone that way. Then, when they understand more about themselves, they need to look to the future.
People who are pitiful, drowning about in self-hate, are truly the weakest people I've met. I know it would hurt to tell someonethat, but its the truth. Everything in life is about choices. You choose how you feel. Take your life by the reins. Start driving.
Isn't that what being a teenager is about? Learning how to lead your own life?
Why can't people just try? Is trying that hard? Maybe it is, failure is scary...but each time you fail, you become stronger. You learn. But you can't stop trying. Because then your worthless.
Just believe in yourself. Don't keep the pain inside. That's what I've learned.

Another thing I hate: 'pimps'. I mean, for one thing, sleeping with ten men/women nightly isn't something to be proud of, and making money off of it is just wrong. It degrades the opposite gender. Disgusting.

Rap sucks. It's not music. Theres only a 'thud thud' beat to it. No guitars. and their always talking about beating up their wives, doing their drugs, and waking up someplace they dont want to be. It's stupid. If your going to rap, rap about something important. Even though I still hate rap, Eminem(spelling?) does that. I mean I hate how he curses every single sentence(I'm not huge on not-swearing+i curse a lot+but hes out of hand) and the such. But his lyrics are clever. I'll give him that.
I hate hip-hop and R&B. Don't know why. I'm Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Punk(RARELY), Alternative, and Classical. I like opera as well.
For me, music isn't so much the singer, but the music behind it. In hard rock and heavy metal, their giving some serious abuse to their instruments. Those are some of THE hardest genres to play in. The songs are complex and everything. Then I listen to what their saying. If I think the lyrics are passionate: its cool, and then their voice, they gotta sound good. Then I listen to how it all sounds together.
Punk is an imitation of hard rock. I like Bowling for Soup though. They know what their doing and make fun of it. :: thumbs up ::
Classical is beautiful. I don't know what else to say. I admire composers, as writing music is HARD.
Opera, opera, opera. I love it. Thats all there is to it.

I think thats the major stuph.
Ja ne!
