gahhhh, "How things are made"

I was just watching this show "How it's made", and I just had to write this.  They were doing a segment on how fur coats are made.  There's a lot that goes into them.  They were showing how they can be dyed and that patterns can be cut into them, and all the stages it goes through, EXCEPT, they didn't show the captive beavers or little foxes or minks in tiny, dirty cages with sometime open gaping wounds.  They didn't show how they are electrocuted or how they are killed. They didn't show any of that.  I remember when I was little we had a fur stuffed animal, and I loved that thing.  IT was a kitty.  I had NO IDEA it was rabbit fur or what went into it.  I really do like the feel of fur.  It's soft and warm, but it belongs on the animal.  Until I found out what happens to the animals and how they live and how they die, I just didn't know fur was so disgusting.  I wonder if the companies put a tag on the coat of the slaughtered animal and a link to a website showing the deaths of the animals if they would sell as much.  After all, I think the animal should get credit for being the raw materials.  I wish more people cared. People can be so blind.

I think the show should have shown the reality of what fur is since it is a "how it's made" show.  I think people are mislead by how a fur coat feels and what it looks like.  I think if people really knew, I mean really knew, I don't think most people would even consider wearing fur.  I will admit that some of the styles look really cool, but in reality they are just capes of dead, suffering animals.  gross.

oh the highlight of my night ...a few days ago, koti cut a pumpkin up really creatively for halloween.  Tonight I went to pick it up, and it was mush and the bottom fell out all over me.  That thing rotted FAST, but then again, everything in Florida does,   It stunk too, but it was so cool. ;p

the eyes of a vegetarian or vegan...

Hiya,

I gets lots of compliments on my eyes and so does Koti.  What people think is lots of make-up making them pretty isn't really the entire truth.  I think what makes my eyes pretty is the fact that I am a vegetarian.  I think more light shines through them and they are clearer than a lot of hard core meat eaters.  I am not bashing you for eating meat.  I'm just saying that if you won't consider being one for the animals which is the ONLY reason I became one, then become one because it will make your eyes shine.  I am going to eventually go vegan like koti.  I like my cheese, hahaha, but i try to get it from sources I KNOW are nice to their animals..

e-bullying cont.

 Someone told me in my live the other day that the people that kill themselves over it would have done it anyway.  I told them that I didn't agree with it because many of these people are kids and not fully developed.  Maybe they have a shitty home life, are getting bullied at school too, and the bullies follow them to the mall and harass them all over the place.  In a moment of extreme pain, they off themselves.  If they weren't pushed to the wall, they could probably survive one or two really bad things in their lives, but when the bullies put in the final nail, it's just too much.  People can bully another human to death.  It's already happened, and it's sick.

You can only submit one so I sent Koti's in since she forgot her junk.  Give her some love!  hahaha, yeah, and put up your old halloween pics too.

What are you going to be for halloween this year?  I'm going to be a zombie nurse or somthing like that only because I have stuff that works for it from the rave days pssshhhh.....I'm wondering if I am getting too old for this shit.  Which leads me to ask how old is too old to dress up for halloween and how old is too old to go trick or treating?

e-fame

There's so so much I want to say about it, but I can't say as much as I want to right now.

I will say to those who are striving for it....Be Careful what you wish for.

You really have to grow a thick skin and learn that haters hurt themselves the most.  Know that when someone is repeatedly attacking you, it's a reflection of something screwy that's going on in him or herself.  You are like a mirror.

I know Florida just passed a cyber bully law in June 2008.  I also learned from my Humanities teacher that if an over 21 year old cyber bullys a minor that he or she can spend up to five years in jail. 

If you do get e-famous realize:   You are going to end up seeing the darkest side of people, and it's going to make you wonder how the hell are people even surviving being able to be so hateful.  You will be hated just for having something someone else wants.   You will learn it's a crazy world out there, and you will learn to be responsible for yourself, maybe the hardest way possible.  Hopefully, the road will make you stronger and be more like a mirror sending it back and never letting it sink in.

There were times I thought about packing it in, but then I learned a really hard lesson early on.  I learned to know my inner strength.  I learned that when someone attacts you that it is really his or her own problem and not yours.  I learned that in the hardest of times, that you can still rise above and move forward and keep creating...no matter what....I learned about my own treasure inside and the sugar is REAL,  Think about it...how is a diamond formed?  Just don't take this e-crap so seriously and don't let some creep behind a keyboard ruin you.  You will always be better than the creep behind the keyboard.  ALWAYS!  like a diamond! ;]

xoxo

omg shut up

mkay, my paramore pup loves having his coat dyed.  I have used special effects 4-eva, and it has NEVER burned my scalp.  My puppy has a light coat, and I would NEVER bleach his hair first.  I dyed it orange for Halloween, and then we painted flames on his back.  Pippin loves to be pampered.  He actually likes to be dried and brushed.  He doesn't view it as cruel and neither do I so just stop with the "I am abusing my dog" stuff.

Oh, and to the jerk who tried to fake panasonic youth with that nasty e-mail to me, you know where you can put it.  Mark has left me alone and has actually been helpful in certain eh-emm situations, so quit trying to create drama.  I don't fall for that crap as easily as I used to .

If you have a dog with a light coat or light tail there's nothing wrong with making it a little colorful.  It's not like a cat that licks so I say it's a-okay. Do it.
