Vote For Me

So, I recently decided to take on the challenge of running for Homecoming Queen. And I say challenge because I am definitely not the kind of girl that runs for Homecoming Queen. So, why am I running, you ask? And I guess the answer is, I want to see if you have to be that "kind of girl."

The kind of girl I'm talking about...
The cute, cheerleader with the popstar attitude who knows everyone and everyone knows her. I do not fit this description.. Save the cute part. Because let's face it. I'm extremely cute.

But I'm still, not that "kind of girl." Instead, I'm the kind of girl that runs for prestigious officer positions, like President of Literati or PR Director of the Russian Club. I'm the kind of girl that gets full-ride scholarships, is a member of the Oklahoma Academic Scholars and the kind of girl that makes a 27 on her ACT. These are good things, but they are not the things that won Homecoming Queen in high school.

So let us hope that college is actually different from high school. Let us hope that I don't have to be the prettiest, most spirited girl on campus, and let us hope that a girl like me can be that "kind of girl" that wins Homecoming Queen.

Vote for me.

You may now return to whatever you were doing previous to this useless rant.

Thanks. :)

Rap is Crap

I remember when Eminem was big. Thank God that was short-lived, as I have come to have quite a distaste for lyrical gangsters. Though, I have to say my biggest hang up with the Hip-hop scene, is the complex that single white males seem to be infected with.

Let's take my brother for example. Not a bad looking guy, did well in high school, used to have dreams of being a sports journalist. But, somewhere along the way, cRAP happened. Now his biggest dream is to be a rap star. I can say that he nearly fits the part, with the upturned flat bill hat (sticker still inside), or the g-unit jacket over the XXXL shirts that swallow him up. Hell, my brother even has a pretty decent voice. But lets face it the rap industry is slowly fading, and its about damn time, I'm tired of the rhymes, clouding up my mind, my thoughts I cannot find........

And yes, my booty lookin fine.

Also, as an English major, I find rap to be thoroughly degrating to the English language and many of the fine grammar rules that can and should be used. There is no reason why words should be cut in half, or have the suffixs dropped. And who the hell gave rappers permission to make up words? Gertrude is the only one allowed to do that. DULK!

So yes, I have to say that rap is crap. And white boys shouldn't pop their collars.
