| to the students who've left school to protest, my favorite quotes from the dallas morning news:
- i would be more favorably impressed if these protesting students were
carrying american flags?
-amazing! what svengali-like power it must take to convince high school
students to skip clas?
- "yes, i know we're here illegally, but it is unfair to say that just
because you are an immigrant, you have to go." um, no like you said,
you're illegal. THATS why you have to go.
-hey, over here... do you know what you're protesting about? do you know how much money illegal’s are costing our country? oh wait, the only reason YOU are here is because you got lucky enough to be popped out in our country. thanks.
sunday march 9th they're all protesting again in downtown dallas, anybody wanna go with me to protest the protesters? i'll be goin after work around 3

i'm starting to develop a problem with people. people who live up to their stereotypes. it's a slight problem because, well, being a 911 operator, when i answer the phone and say its a hispanic male on the other end who doesn’t speak any english... it just bothers me a lot. i dont know why. i guess i feel that they should learn english if they live here, but i mean, is that so wrong? i watch all these people protesting about the immigration reforms trying to be passed and i have no sympathy. i just feel that if that want to be in this country they should do it legally or not at all. just my opinion. (btw, that stupid spanish/rap song on mtv w/ no english in it that they played 6 times in a row is what sparked this revelation)
neway, i'm doin better recently. err i actually had my wisdom teeth out and they causin me a lot of pain. i just refilled my hydrocodone refil (man, thats some good stuff!) and i accidentally took two pills. i really didn't mean to, and now the room is spinning. a lot.
call g.j. wentworth now <--- goodness! annoying ass comercial
work at 7am, then i'm in a fashion show and workin a fund raiser so i need my beauty sleep. lol.

| as my pager goes of for the 4th time today, reminding me that there is an overtime slot open for work, i sit here and wonder what i've gotten myself in to. 40+ hours of work, 12 of class and all the extras in there to keep up with the two, i just get so overwhelmed. i just turned 20 four days ago. twenty years old. no longer a teenager, but already with a full time job and trying to get to the end (or even middle) of my double major degree which will take so long to complete. feels like high-school... with less time for me and less to look forward to upon graduation except a new job and a bigger paycheck (and of course the rest of my life w/ the one i love ). why didn't i suck it up and get a loan to go to ut? why can't i find fun people that i get along with here??
*beeper goes off again...*
*sigh* i just thought that moving out and being able to do whatever i wanted would be more rewarding. but i exchanged 40 hrs sleeping at home for 40 at work from 7am-3 (+ overtime). now i can't complain about the money, and i do love my job. it cost quite a bit to move in to my first apartment so i'm a little low right now, but like i said, can't complain about that. i would give it up tho, to feel like a true college student, with class being the only thing that keeps me from hangin out with friends or relaxing. to live in a dorm, having to put up with other people's crap, and the loud parties, and crazy people. but is it really all that good out there? at the "big" universities not over-run with foreigners who don't speak english? i don't know, prolly never will. makes me sad. i love my friends here, but .. this is so far from what i envisioned my college experience would be like.
--
this xanga was not to complain btw, just for me to write and read what i've been feeling, casue it's startin to get me down a bit. i went to that one black light fraternity party here, and it was awesome. but it just makes me think of goin to austin even more; or gettin somethin to take my mind off austin (like a motorcycle, which i can't afford... yet).
neway. i hope everybody else's college plans are going well!! leave somethin-
