Rainy Wednesday. . . AND I GOT A JOB!

Twas rainy today. That's alright though. I like rain, when there's no thunder. Plus I was able to get my daily sun before it started raining. It's really pretty outside and smells fantastic. Rain :)

Today I made the most awesome pasta ever! Ok, it wasn't the most a awesome pasta ever, but it was pretty good! Instead of just plain alfredo, I grabbed some spinach we had, cooked that up in some olive oil and with garlic powder, and put that in the alfredo. It was a nice touch to an otherwise boring lunch.

Then I headed over to the bestby's! I'm taking advantage of these last few days where I can do what I want when I want with no interruptions, from work. Because guess what! I GOT THE JOB! Yep, that's right, you're now reading the blog of Victoria's Secret's newest employee. It's only a seasonal job though, but I'm hoping if I do a really good job I'll be able to transfer to the one down the street from my school! I'm so excited! I get my first job ever at my very favorite store! It's going to be very hard for me to not spend all my paycheck as soon as I get it.

But back to the bestby's. We needed to create a new summer list of things to do. Cleaning my room yesterday, I found last summer's list! It's a little crinkled but I still have it! I laughed remembering last summer, and seeing all the things on our list that we didn't actually get to do.

We made a new list for this summer! Well, at least the beginning's of one. I'm sure we'll add more to it. But as of now it's, 
1. Go to Famous Dave's and Macaroni Grill
2.Show the bestby the temple
3. Go swimming!
4. Go to the museum
5. Work out at least twice a week.
Bam. I think we can do this! I'm so excited for this summer, and I'm already doing a lot of things that I wanted to do. I can't let any days go to waste. 
The bestby and I also colored at his house. It's so relaxing and fun! It worked out perfectly, my picture needed small markers and his needed big, so we didn't have to wait for each other to finish up with a color. It was a perfect, great afternoon :)

It's not finished yet. 

Since I've been out of school, I've been staying up later and later. Because of that, the dog now loves me because I can give her treats all night long until I finally go to bed. That's alright though, I don't like being alone. Last night she went through two chewys. She's my new best friend :)

Racism, stereotypes, and plain ole judging

Being in a class dedicated to the idea of migration has really kept the idea of racism on the brain. In elementary school, the idea of racism was so defined to me, thinking people are better than others based solely on the color of their skin. It wasn't until middle school after reading many books that I realized racism wasn't jut as issue of black versus white, rather it applies to all cultures. In high school I was actually shocked to here racist statements from people I loved. All the sudden this issue became personal somewhat. (My favorite statement was from a little girl who said, it should be illegal for Mexicans to have babies. I guess I can't have kids then.)  But it wasn't until last week when we did an activity in my public health class that I realized that I myself was being racist as well. Now, this is something I am not proud of. I'm very embarrassed actually and that activity was humbling. Why am I writing about this? Because, it's som...

Toxic Masculinity

It seems like forever ago that they released that Gilette ad about toxic masculinity. I watched as people I'd grown up with freaked out about it, saying that it said that men need to be like women, and that it condemned masculinity altogether, along with other things. I crafted post after post to write on my social media, but in the end didn't bother writing anything. I didn't feel like arguing with people. But I had to share my thoughts somewhere, so here they are.  To me, toxic masculinity is exactly what it says-- ideals of masculinity that are toxic. It's telling your son that he needs to suck it up and not cry. That he can get away with more than girls because 'boys will be boys.' The idea that he can't read or watch certain media because it's "for girls." At the same time, girls are asked to watch things that are "for boys" all of the time. It's the idea that men need to repress their feelings. That they can't be sc...

Little Bit o Writing Monday

The beginning of my short story for class.  When Dora's son tugged on her pants leg, the last thing she expected was to see him holding a tooth. A tooth that clearly did not belong to him. She was no dentist, but she was smart enough to know the colossal thing couldn't have come from Mark's mouth. “Mark, where did you find that?” Dora scolded. “In the backyard.” “Show me where,” Dora commanded. Excited, Mark ran out to the backyard, Dora following on his heels. He led her over to the back of the yard, to the particular corner that couldn't be seen from the kitchen window. There, her other two children were gathered around a hole in the ground. Hole was an understatement though, they'd obviously been working on this, pit, for quite sometime. If there had been no tooth, Dora would have sat the kids down and explained how digging holes this deep was dangerous because of all the water, electric, and who knows what else lines were under the ...
