   I am so damn tired of selfish people
If you didn't know, last year before moving into my dorm, I was supposed to be rooming with "Brooke" but then she canceled last minute and I got Becky.

Thank God, because Becky is an amazing, fun, sweet, nice, and mellow person, and she and I got on amazingly well. I mean, I'm mellow and passive and good roommate material, but still. what we had worked, and worked well.

Also, Thank GOD because that girl Brooke, she and I would have just NOT got along. At ALL. I met her once in person, it was January, and cold. She was wearing a track suit because she'd been playing tennis. We were outside walking and it was cold and she was complaining about being cold so I offered her my jacket. She said, "no thanks. i have one but it's from ambercrombie and it wouldn't match and i'd die."

that was what made me seriously dislike her. What made me hate her is her brazen admittance that she "doesn't care about the environment." Sorry. But I hate people that don't care about the environment even just a lick.

So...you don't like to hike? look at flowers? climb trees? play with animals? breathe air? drink water? live on Earth? fine. leave. go. we're better off without you.

I mean, it's one thing to be poor and starving and dying -you can't care about anything much when you're in a bad state like that, just trying to eek out enough to survive. I don't hate those people who don't care, because I think that if they were alright for themselves, they WOULD care. And in fact, from what I've seen, even the poorest people in the world DO care about the environment. or at least keeping it maintained so that they can maintain themselves.

I mean, really, what the fuck do you think we're supposed to do if we ruin the world we live in? Think we can just clean the air once it's been all dirtied? What are we going to do for clean, fresh water? it's really hard to desalinate water. Where are we going to LIVE if we pollute and ruin everything? We're dead meat if we don't care about the environment and do something about it. DEAD MEAT.

People only care about money, people who have the means to make a huge, positive difference, but chose to be selfish. I can't understand the materialism that so many people have. I mean, I like to get stuff like books and...books. and animals. Stuff is fine. But eventually, i get fucking tired of it taking up space and making a mess and I don't do anything with it anyway.

I can understand the desire to be rich; everyone is lazy when you get down to it. I personally want to be rich so that I can help people/the environment. You know, start programs for homeless people to get back on their feet. Pay poor farmers in where-ever to grow sustainable crops. Do something more than just sending a random check to someone. Which is good, don't get me wrong, but I feel like you can do more if you get personally involved. Also, I want to travel. That's why I want to be rich.

I don't want to be rich so i can have a big house and a bunch of cars and a nanny and a maid and a chef and expensive clothes and all this yadda yadda yadda. I don't want any of that. I want to live simply and humbly and try to improve the world.

I can't tell people what to do. But I can damn well wish that they weren't so selfish and shallow. "OMG i could NOT go into Hollister dressed like this, i would DIE." (*also something brooke said). I kind of hate humanity. I don't truly hate any individual people, but if you look at all the evils committed out there by people, it's beyond words, it's a choking feeling. It's HORRIBLE. And people did all those horrible things to other people. Sometimes in the name of GOD. Which offends me all the more because GOD is...GOD and people try to blame their evil and selfishness on Him.

Oh and I sure hope people come to realize that being gay is actually kind of a GOOD thing. And accept them happily. I mean, don't encourage anyone to be who they aren't, but if somebody's gay, they should be given a bag of cookies or something. Because the planet has too many people, and the more gay people there are, the less people there are to be out there making accident-babies (like me). If they want a biological child, that's cool. if they want to adopt, please let them!

I don't get why they don't let gays adopt children...essentially homeless, unloved, family-less child would be give a home, love, and a family. maybe even a dog or a cat. or something cool like a turtle. We could give so many needy children homes where they would be treasured like they should be. it's not like they are going to be "turned" gay.thank you!
