I hate Sociology. I never understood how awful it was…I thought that it would be cool because it is related to psychology…nope. It is all about dumb sociologists ASSUMING that most people are “creations of society” and blah blah blah, as if I was formed by society’s rules. Sure, I get up and dress myself every day according to what society finds appropriate, and in that sort of aspect I do abide by society’s rules. But the book (and my teacher who supports this a great deal, it seems) tells us that religion, society, government, and the worst of all…MEDIA are all “needs”…
GODFORBID that someone go a week without knowing what is new with Britney Spears, or knowing what some chick who was married once to some director and divorced him twenty minutes later and now is really famous for being in one movie and for her ex husband…what she wore to some stupid gathering of celebrities, and “oh my god did she look gorgeous with the new fall trends” or whatever the hell…
GODFORBID that someone go an entire WEEKEND without knowing what has happened in the world around them…like when that tsunami thing happened a year ago, where was little miss Ginger?? She was away from the world under some rock somewhere and never found out about it until weeks later, and to this day she still is unsure as to what day it happened on, I think it was Christmas but I don’t know. I was enjoying my new year and I’m sure I didn’t find out about it until I went back to school at least two weeks later…or last year on Halloween weekend, it was the same weekend of the MSU vs. U of M game, and those of you who know Ginger know that she likes U of M, and mainly, she LOVES football. I went the entire weekend (yes I know I was being disgraceful…but it kept me warm…) WEARING A MSU SWEATSHIRT, camping, and even when I re-entered society on Sunday night, NOBODY could tell me who won the damn game. OBVIOUSLY I’m not the only one who likes to hide under my rock and pretend there is no world, only me and my rock…
But DAMN IT, back to sociology. He gave us five choices that are all very harsh, expecting us to ASSUME waaay too much. The only one I can half tolerate is the one I’m stuck with. “what is in your closet…” which tells you to ASSUME by looking at the clothes what kind of person it is who wears them. ASSUME that the person who wears the clothes I like to wear is semi modest, follows trends, is active in society, yadda yadda yadda… I don’t even know really HOW to assume, or judge character just by looking. In fact I remember around 10th grade is when I taught myself NOT to do that because it pissed me off too much. GINGER DOES NOT JUDGE PEOPLE, SHE DOES NOT ASSUME ANYTHING, SHE ONLY TAKES IN WHAT IS GIVEN TO HER AND PUTS WHAT SHE ALREADY HAS TOGETHER TO FORM HER OPINON.
Did I mention I hate sociology??
That is all I have to say for now.
(ps. To YOU: (you know who you are) giving up on duties not fulfilled means you give up all things sacred to you. Time cannot turn backwards; you must continue living onward with what makes you happy now, even if it is the small things in life. Focus your energy on this, for you will never regret it. After all, it is the fruit of life, you must enjoy it’s every splendid grace it gives you. Your duty has been forfeited; you must find a new path. It may take a long time to find, but you must not go the easy way, it is not the right way. It has long since grown over and forgotten since the last time it has been walked. Find a new duty.)
