Many times I see people shun things around them because they do not understand why those things happen. One of those
thing that people always shun is the fact that homosexuality would always exist in this world. I'm not trying to psycho people to become homosexuals, but I feel that people should always be respected and they should not be discriminated just because of their sexuality. In any case, I came across this little... piece(if thats what you wish to call it), and I feel that, really, homosexuals don't have an easy life.
(Note: I know some of you would care less for the homosexuals, so you could leave now, taking whatever nasty remarks you have and shoving them up your ass. As for those who are polite but still wish not to see things about homosexuals, I'm sorry, but leaving may also be a better choice for you.)
"I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working in the streets because nobody will hire a transexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful tear-filled night
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the men who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world need most, Love.
I am the person who is afraid off telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male"
I do not credit myself to have written this, because I did not. It hurt when I read this, because this people are either in fear or are feared because of who they loved. What if we lived in a world where homosexuality was the majority? Would heterosexual be those that go through all the suffering instead? Sometimes when I see how guys around me shun another perfectly healthy male just because of their sexuality, I feel really disappointed, because I always though that those guys were more than that.
I may not be a homosexual, but at least I understand that love is love, no matter who the other party is.

Have you guys ever had that funny feeling that you really really want someone and because you know you can't have that person, everything in your body feels wrong? Haha. I have, and it's so damn weird. Of course, it may be because that I was working 'til 1 a.m. and that I slept at four because I was on the phone. Tsktsk.
Anyway, I've just watched
Twilight on monday night, and even though I paid $8 for it(normally, I go for the student price, but preview doesn't have student price), I think it was duper worth it. I know that the movie would never be as good as the book(DUH!), but it was so much better than expected. One thing for sure, I'm actually pretty glad about Robert Pattinson being the actor for Edward Cullen! Hehheh. I actually didn't liked him, but when I saw the way he acted and the ways he expressed each and every expression that Edward should have, I must say, I'm impressed!
Lalala~... Sorry, but I'm not in the mood to blog, but I thought that I should, so I did.
See ya!

Sigh... Money!!! Where to find?!
I never knew that private education would be so expensive! I mean, yeah, I know, it would definitely cost me more than studying in a polytechnic or going back to a secondary school, but WTF!!! I'm so lost now. I don't know how the fuck I'm going to be able to afford private education, even if it is for one year, much less pay for the fees of GCE O levels examination.
Sigh...
Anyway, I'm going to drop by CHEC and maybe also call BMC Academy to check out the rates. I know that they state everything online, but... I'm going to try my best to get my way over this hurdle. Maybe I'll be lucky enough and get some sort of large inheritance from some long lost uncle?? Haha... I'm dreaming, but... A beggar can dream, can't she? :)
Wish me luck(or something)!!
P.S.: By the way, guys, Merry Christmas! 14 more days to the big day!!! (:Labels: Life

So... Haha.. I've just had a trying week. Man, am I tired.
My parents just made a rather significant decision that would change my life, and my brother's too
(insert big D-word here). I most probably will be moving house, hopefully to somewhere not too far from here where I'm currently staying, and I really hope that I would get to stay with my mom instead of my dad. I've also made some life-changing decisions for myself, the most important one being that I'm quitting my education in polytechnic soon and will hop back to the train to O levels. I'm going to work hard, in both studies and work, and reap the results that I ought to have by the end of next year. Yep.
I guess I'm pretty nonchalant about my parents' decision actually. Maybe it's because I've always seen it coming and now that it's here, I find there no need to have any great reactions anymore. (Of course, let's all ignore the fact that I spent my Sunday night crying my eyeballs out because reality crashed) I'm just hoping that this decision that was made would do more good than harm. I will greatly miss this neighborhood. Miss the nights when I could just go to the 24hrs supermarket just because I had a craving, miss the times when I could just hop by to Geral's place, miss the total convenience that I find when moving around this area... Sigh. Wish me luck, people!
Of course, as opposed to my attitude towards my parents' decision, I am more worried about re-taking O levels. I mean, I haven't been in touch with the syllabus for so long that I'm not so sure that I'll be able to catch up in time to come. Furthermore, I'm afraid that I will not be able to achieve what I dream to. Then again, if I don't hold strong to this decision I've made, how the fuck will I be able to swallow the regret I know I will feel in future? Tsktsk.
Anyway, that's about it. My life in the past few days... Hope you guys had better luck than I did!!
P.S.: By the way, did I tell you? I'm picking up art again. Mainly because I've always wanted to. Geral just gave me a theme to work on, and for that I'm grateful. Maybe tomorrow, I'll scan in my sketches for you to see? Heh...
P.S.S.: And, did I say? I FOUND SOME NEW MOVIES BY ALAN RICKMAN!!! OMG!!! I LOVE THAT BRIT OK! *hops around, feeling high*
