A Quagmire of Epic Proportions!

Cool title, eh? I just wrote it to get you to read this =p Anyways, sounding off on wahat's happened so far in the past week:

Volunteering at Alum Rock YSI =D (It's awesommeeee there! Hawks, turtles, snakes, and what-not! =p and i get to learn to take care of them =]

My birthday came and passed; I am now 15! OK well nobody really cares but I like shouting useless things to the deaf world..

My dad's still in rehabilitation; he is making sense, remembers everything, BUT he acts like a man at a bar overloaded with whiskey. Basically he makes no sense and is confused about where he is at the moment... yep..

Other mundane things in my life: Grades sliding yet some more =x , doing Romeo & Juliet in english (huzzah, yea lily-livered knack-eyed whoreson!), and trying to improve the Wheel of DOOM~~!

In stuff that actually matters: Obama lifted the ban on federal funding for embryonic stem cell research, included $50 billion for relief for home-buyers, legalised medical-marijuana clubs, and basically undid much of the conservative policies Bush enacted in his terms.
Meanwhile, GM and Chrysler ARE in a quagmire of EPIC proportions, burnin' through cash, and probably to receive another bailout by the taxpayers... =.= ('Twas your fault to begin with, GM...) Oh and more troops sent to Afghanistan.



Speaking on religion (I am speaking frankly and do not intend to speak ill of anyone; constructive criticism is welcomed] :It is out-dated. Based on books thousands of years old, written by people who were ignorant of the world and its laws of nature. Of course, people need religion. It sustains a healthy mentality, and is a good framework for morals. It joins together a community, and helps others. On a note, therefore: Does prayer help? People prayed for me in church last Sunday, and i felt, awkward. Grateful that people cared, but awkward...


One more thing, depression, which we were discussing in English. Why and how do we become depressed? When are we at, or past the stage of suicide? What is the cure for it?
Here's my thoughts: 1 Life sucks. Get over it. 2 Look on the bright side, there's always someone worse off than you.

Of course, I'm sure you have different opinions, thoughts, and feelings about all this, but I'm just doing this to make you think ;D
