Something to Ponder

Well I've been thinking about this for awhile so I decided I would finally write about it. So many times in today's society you hear people saying that they have "Black Pride" or "Asian Pride" or some other time of ethnicity "pride". It really makes me stop and wonder... Hmm, If I said I "White Pride" I would be considered a racist, a bigot, and lots of other names. But I'm doing is the same thing that others are doing. Nothing really different but yet I'm the one considered to be in the wrong. So I have an idea for everyone that takes pride in something. How about take PRIDE for being an AMERICAN and not for being a different ethnicity. So take PRIDE IN AMERICA if you want to be proud of something. And if you just can't get over your race or someone elses then maybe you should go back to your home country and have your pride there.

Review's n Updates

Well Hello everyone. A couple of reviews and some info for you all. I just got done reading the book "Ender's Game" now I know what you were talking about Eli. It was one of the best books I've read. Eli, you shall now refer to me as "Bean", anyways it was one of the most enjoyable books I've ever read, and I encourage everyone else to read it as well. I've also seen a couple of movies lately. The new Harry Potter is very well done. I think it is my favorite of them so far. Can't wait for the next one. I also saw "The Notebook" this weekend. Another very well done movie with a good story and some great acting in it.

As far as updates, I got back from Portland on Monday after being there for Joel's wedding (it was fun and great to see everyone) and spending time w/ friends and family. It was good to see my parents and sister and spend some time with them. I'm still working at both La Quinta and Bank One right now. I'm in the process of looking for 1 job that will give me better hours and pay me what I'm making at both jobs combined or more. Kari just started a new job with Screen USA and is loving it. She already makes more then I do at the hotel. Oh well, I am nothing but happy for her. I LOVE YOU KARI.
