Trying That Vlogging Thing

I changed my RSS source but if you subscribed through that button on my sidebar then I guess your ok. But if it’s erase-her.net/rss.xml then I don’t think that exist anymore.

I haven’t really blogged in a long while because lately it feels more like work. I wanted a change of pace so I’ve tried the video blogging thing but I doubt I’m going to stick with it since blogging is more my thing. Bogging is so much more rewarding with the community and all, the problem is that I have less and less passion for it.

I’m not a very good talker ^-^;. You notice their is some cuts because I say ‘and’ and ‘um’ a lot and I sort of have a ‘filipino’ accent. If you’ve been around since my threadless post you already know about the first 20 seconds of my video with my ‘rape t-shirt’. Then I talk about that weird look reporters get on the news and how to get clear beautiful skin.

Politics And History

A couple of days ago I woke up and my the news is on.
In the state of California Proposition 22- Marriage should only be between a man and a woman. The high court overturned that proposition so technically for now gay marriage is legal in the state of California which makes it the second state in the US to legalize gay marriage. The first one is Massachusetts.
Some hope that there is going to be a ‘rippling’ effect and other states will pick up on the gay marriage thing.

I saw a lot of happy homosexuals proposing to their love ones in the news. I think they shouldn’t jump into marriage quite yet because there still going to be a vote to keep this permanent or not in November.

According to a conservative group they already have 1.5 million signatures against gay marriage rights and return marriage between a man and woman exclusively in the state of California.

What I think? I’m not a big marriage fan at all, gay or hetero. I don’t understand it why someone needs to get married but maybe I think that way because I’m still young. If I was more coked up I’d start an against marriage (period!) rally!

I think it’s funny how these conservatives think two people getting married who just so happen to have the same genitals are going to ruin their lives.

Sounds familiar? About 40 years ago interracial marriage was illegal in Virginia and people thought the same thing.
“It’s against the will of God”
“It’s unnatural”
Maybe 40 years from now gay marriage will be viewed like interracial marriage is now, mostly not a big deal. So exciting to be part of history. It would make an interesting story to tell your grandchildren.

I don’t mind other’s opinions on topics like because I’m really open and don’t mind whatever you might believe.

In other news I’ve been invited to play the Hello Kitty MMO which is currently in closed beta right now. I know Hello Kitty has nothing to do with politics and history and I’m secretly convince she’s evil but I’m attracted to evil things.

Is That Even Physically Possible?

This is a semi-random post. It’s not as much information as your usual random post but it’s random enough for me.

I heard a couple days ago that a girl who is the same age as me and hung out with in elementary school was pregnant and now has a little kid. I couldn’t imagine that happening to me anytime soon. Me having a kid then it’s like saying “I want to stop having fun”
Emphasis on I because I know there are a lot of young mothers out there and I’m sure that you do a great job. But we’re two different species. Even though I believe I’m more mature than most my age I don’t think I have the mentality to take care of another human being for the rest of my life. I don’t think I would make a good mother now. When I’m in my 20s I plan to move around a lot, the whole “trying to find myself” thing and I think kids need stability.

—————————————————————

Speaking of moving around a lot on of the places I want to visit is Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia. It’s the world’s largest slat flat. It looks like your walking on the sky when the ground is wet. I want blindfold somebody on the way there so they could be surprised.

——————————————————

My brother really misses his ex-girlfriend. Sometimes he’s in denial and says he doesn’t need her but I know he misses her. He’s been calling me her name more often. Your brother calling you by his ex-girlfriends name is really creepy.

——————————-

I sure hope there isn’t going to be a draft like the one during Vietnam war. I’m already two steps away from becoming crazy. Well if I get PTSD I can use it as my excuse for when I go on my murderous rampage and hopefully I’ll get not guilty for reason of insanity.

This isn’t everybody, this isn’t even a majority of my blog friends. But some people/person get pissed because I don’t bother to comment on their blog. I’m sorry that your nap and the number of hours that you sit counting your toes doesn’t interest me. As a blogger you have to think like a visitor
and what would they think of your post.

———————————

Has someone ever really liked you and you wish they don’t. Like they think your so great just because they see you so high and mighty and your really not that special. Then you realized how annoying you must’ve been to your past crushes. Gosh.

Would you run this ad?

Site news: I uploaded the Cold Case “Boy Crazy” Episode in streaming form. It’s the one about the murder of a young girl that looked and acted like a boy(read this post for more information). It isn’t graphic but it’s very heart-breaking especially the last ten minutes of the episode. A lot of people realized that there was nothing wrong with her but it was already too late. *sniff*
It’s HD quality so it’s better if you watch it on large screen, double click. Also looks better on firefox but is ok on internet explorer. Watch video here.

On to the topic….

It’s a very short post and you might’ve been comforted with this question before in school.

If you run a school newspaper and this group of mainly white males wanted to post an advertisement that they wanted a discussing on the following topics.

The history books should be rewritten because the holocaust never happened.
Why minorities and women get special treatment.
Why doesn’t science talk about the seriously important things, like being gay is actually a mental disease.

Would you run that ad? Think about the first ammendment and freedom of speech.

Boy Crazy

Sunday’s detective/homicide show Cold Case Episode ‘Boy Crazy’ was a real tear-jerker. This episode was about a girl named Samantha (Sam) from 1963 who liked to dress and act like a boy. They open up the case because they believed that Sam was killed because of the way she behaved and dressed in such a conservative time, instead of committing suicide as the autopsy report suggested .

And it was perfect in so many levels.

1. I’m a big fan of the early 1960s (though obviously and fortunately I never lived during that time)
2. They had two Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons songs in this episode!
3. It reminded me of my own Boy Crazy story (yeah I never was a tomboy but when I looked at scenes of Sam and her only friend Dom it reminded me of those feelings that I had)

In this video clip the detectives interview the older Janie (the former school bitch), it cuts to a flashback. She spies on Dom and Sam hanging out by the lake. They make a promise that ‘to be free or die trying’.
Background Music: Smokey Robinson- You Really Got A Hold On Me
Dom: So do you like chicks?
Sam:…..?
Dom: I mean, like I do?
Sam:*Laughs* No.
Dom: Then what do you like?
Sam: I like, I like you.

She kisses Dom and Dom,shocked and confused pushes her off.

Janie spreads what she saw to the entire school and Dom stops talking to Sam. There was a heart-breaking scene when the boys pin Sam down and tries to make her wear lipstick and Dom isn’t even looking at her.

I was going to post the last 6 minutes of the episode so you would know who Sam’s killer was but that would spoil everything. So you can download the episode yourself if you want over at freetvdown. I wanted to post it though because it was one of the more powerful scenes and during those last 6 minutes I was bawling my eyes out. For some reason I felt a lot of guilt for myself. Also the scene with Sam’s father looking at her picture was incredibly sad.

I wish Sam wasn’t killed. Things could’ve worked out with Dom and Sam. Sam was still a girl even though she looked like a boy but it’s Cold Case, not Happy Warm Pancakes Case.
