Dear Friends,
My girlfriend recent wasted her time and her money on getting a movie. A movie? I bring this up because not only am I pissed because she wanted to get a movie but her priorities are off. This is my blog about priorities. Unlike my other two blogs, this is the one I am going to really vent. Now, my girlfriend is a mark for anything pop culture. She’s basically a 16 year old in a 26 year old body. She went to Wal-Mart, stood in line and wasted $26 on a movie that could have been bought for $20. She’s a mark because she bought the expensive version of the movie with the extras.
Where is the priority in getting a DVD? What’s more important: A DVD or paying off a bill for the month? There are people that would rather get the latest movie, game, or CD rather than be responsible. Basically these people are being irrational. I told you these blogs would all be connected somehow. So am I happy she bought an expensive item? I am fucking pissed. I don’t need to buy movies when I can watch them online or go to Netflix to rent them. By the way, she bought Twilight Saga: New Moon. For all those who know me, it is coming soon…a blog about why I do not like this phenomenon.

March Madness: Responsible and Irrational
Dear Friends,
My psych professor told our class than a true adult is when you are able to take responsibility for yourself and act like an adult. Well she’s so right with that point. Today we are going to talk about responsibility. Now most people would make sure before they go out or even buy something that is more of a luxury, you would be responsible and pay your bills. I say that because my girlfriend tried to validate something she did this past weekend. I will explain in my next blog. So do you think you are responsible? I know I have been. However there are some people that would do the following:
• Pay half of their bills and use the rest to buy a coat, or an expensive video game.
• Get a half tank of gas then use the rest of the money to eat out.
• Spend most of your tax refund on an expensive flat screen television.
My point is that we all have some responsibilities. We have to do things before we can be able to enjoy life. What upsets me is that for those who have to be responsible, there are a lot more that are not as responsible. What really pisses me off are those people who needs help but do not want the responsibility of the help.
What are some people so irrational? Why would someone get up at the littlest of things? Someone recently made me aware of the fact that some people are very irrational. In this world we live in, we have little to no patience to do anything. So we become very irrational when it comes to other people. So why could we try to have some patience? It is because unlike having patience, it is so easy to be irrational and pissy.
An irrational person is someone who basically doesn’t want to hear or understand someone’s views or point of view. So with that said, don’t you think everyone is basically irrational? I mean even celebrities are getting irrational with their behavior. Britney Spears, DMX, T.I. and Lil Wayne come to mind with their behavior. I mean even the mayor of Detroit acted very irrational because of the power trip he was on. So unless you really have patience in life, you are going to end up being very irrational and end up kicking someone’s ass. More to come.
