today was a pretty good day, all things considered. just a couple of things pissed me off though:
1. why in the world do we have value education lectures? there is seriously no point in them. very few people actually attend them, and those who do attend are either going to be voluntarily powerless their whole lives or are those who know the difference between right and wrong already. what can you learn about values, ethics that your parents haven't already taught you?

2. is there such a thing as a 'cheap idea'? well in this context at least: i think shilpa shetty's winning big brother is a matter of pride for indians because it means that on some level we are beating white people at their own game. is my patriotism cheap? my racist attitude is (which i acknowledge- i don't hate all white folk though, just those who are racist themselves, like those fools on big brother).

3. i like being a girl sometimes. i hate it sometimes. does that make me feminist or not? i think men can be bastards sometimes- all of them, just like women can be bitches. does that mean i'm disloyal?


i think i should be allowed to define what i want to be, i think that if someone pisses me off or doesn't respect me enough to accept that i see things differently, i should be able to tell that person that i dislike their dismissal of my mind. i shouldn't have to worry about repercussions.
i dreamt the other night that i stood up for the rights of all my college mates... i hope for a day...
