God Speaks
I was feeling down and stuff when I looked at my arm in the mirror. There is a very nice heart shaped mark on my shoulder, and it doesn't make sense. God's little reminder of what to think about. <3

Are my pants really on fire right now???
I haven't felt like this about a fight in a while. Well, this isn't really a fight, I can always just go BOOM I'm okay right now.
I'm not crying or whining right now, I'm not feeling hurt, just affronted. I don't want to draw attention TO it, but yet, I don't want to leave this situation entirely knotted up and undiscussed.
Alright Mr. Blog (who is now male), it is time to have a bit of tea-time chit chat.
I just don't like being told that I "Lied" when I really do not see how I lied. Sure, it's great to feel like I didn't lie, but it's only a problem when said OTHER party continues to feel lied to. It's even more difficult when the question is no longer to be talked about. Normally I'd shrug it off, and I can, but I'm not going back to that whole "let's hide things for others benefits" thing.
I just feel an itch, a bother, and I want it gone. Have I really lied? If so, how?
Why is this so significant? It's not, really, it's just a bit of a frustrating twinge in my gut. What did I ever do to deserve those words, "you lied" about such a silly topic? It's clearly me who suffered from whatever stupid little thing I did, and obviously I did not lie, as I did follow up on everything I said. I don't control the fact that emails get sent and things are supposed to get done. Spending 30 extra minutes on the computer should not constitute a lie.
Yes, my wording may have been exaggerated, but that's what happens in fun and good times. I know, hit a nerve much? But it's not just me.
I feel like since you didn't want to discuss the issue, me trying to reconcile my sins within myself right now is rightfully ....I don't want to use a bad term... but making you very upset/frustrated. Really, the feeling is always mutual.
I don't want to be told I lied. It was a silly little comment with which I happily let slip from my mouth, and it was nothing more. I went to brush my teeth, answered a few emails, and went to bed. I would like to either be told that you didn't think I lied, or if you still do, then I would like to spend the rest of the evening reconsidering my ability to tell the truth. It is beginning to feel like hurt, but I'll just grin and bear it.
I am not lying to you.

Majors ftf
http://hotjobs.yahoo.com/career-articles-college_grads_which_ones_earn_the_most-1103 <---wth!
I'm not an econ major OR an engineering major!
Does this mean that I need to go to Dartmouth, Princeton, Harvard, etc? Who can afford that? I mean, I'm aiming for Ivy League, but I don't know if I could ever afford it.
Oh well, *mantra* money does NOT buy happiness...

Social Justice
Social justice encompasses economic justice. Social justice is the virtue which guides us in creating those organized human interactions we call institutions. In turn, social institutions, when justly organized, provide us with access to what is good for the person, both individually and in our associations with others. Social justice also imposes on each of us a personal responsibility to work with others to design and continually perfect our institutions as tools for personal and social development.
First Wednesday:
According to the Center for Economic and Social Justice, "social justice is the virtue which guides us in creating those organized human interactions we call institutions". When organized justly, social institutions provide access and information for the good of individuals and groups. Everyone has a personal responsibility to continually work with and design institutions as tools for social development. What are some examples of just or unjust social institutions that you know of? How can you get yourself or your friends involved with building these just institutions?
