Seems like so much fun until you're actually there with sand in your crevices, in your hair, and on your food.
It's that time of year again where everyone starts buying bathing suits and gets excited about going to the beach. Even me. I never learn my lesson. Every fall, all I say is, "I'M NEVER GOING TO THE BEACH AGAIN!"
I'm planning my annual beach trip, and although I'm really excited, I know I'll come back angry and hating the beach. I don't really know why I always end up disliking it. Last year I got sick and no one bothered to tell me my bathing suit top DID NOT fit me at all. The year before I couldn't get in the water because I had just gotten my hair done and once again, my bathing suit didn't fit. But now, thinking about going to the beach has me looking up bathing suits online and planning all sorts of things. The thing is, I live in NYC, and a majority of the beaches here are dirty and filled with gangs and prostitutes. D;
For some reason I'm filling up my planner with "BEACH!" every weekend for June. It must be my immense love for summer in general that makes me forget all the bad times. I can't even swim. I don't even like the beach that much.

WHY IS EVERYBODY PREGNANT?
Alright, so teen pregnancy has been on the rise for a few years now. At my school, a girl had a baby in 8th grade and there have been about 6 other cases in the high school. We all know how desperate teenagers are to fit in, and they probably think this is cute now.
[P.S.: I am NOT trying to be mean. I'm stating the facts!]
There are two girls, who are sisters, in my high school who definitely stick out to me. One of them is in 9th grade, the other is in 10th. [Well I don't even think they're considered students, all they do all day is walk around and apparently get into fights in the bathroom, when they're not getting their asses kissed.]
The younger one is a major jackass, and she's obviously not going to take good care of that baby. She wears midriffs and tight skinny jeans and causes trouble wherever she goes. Ever since she became pregnant, she has about 100 new friends and thinks she runs the school.
The older one might as well drop out of school and stop pretending that she does anything productive.
These two girls were involved in a huge girl fight in the school bathroom.
[Really, girls?]
They were both instigating the fight and apparently had no concern whatsoever about their health.
The fight was recorded and put up on Youtube, and the PREGNANT girls, of course, did not get into any trouble.
Now, I have no problem with Teen Pregnancy. [one of my closest and most mature friends is pregnant.] What I DO have an issue with are the girls who get pregnant. Girls like these obviously shouldn't have ANY children, while other teenage girls can handle and succeed at being parents.
These 2 girls, however, aren't even in a stable condition to be parents. They're in foster care and do not have any sufficient amount of money, or a job, necessary to be a parent. All they're doing is looking for someone to depend on them, someone to give them attention, that they do not have. And I know damn right after they give birth, they will continue smoking weed, partying all night, hooking up with "sexi a$$ niqqas", or whatever it is they do.
I'm in NO WAY saying that this is the case for all pregnant teens, but for many, including these two, it is. I do not know them personally but I know what their home life and their childhood was like, and it's obvious to me why they're having these babies.
I just feel SO BAD for these children. These two girls are apparently not interested in continuing school, so not only will they lack a college diploma to fall back on, they'll also lack a high school diploma.
The girl in my middle school who got pregnant at 13 has at least a baby big enough that she can focus on school more than girls who have their babies in the last years of high school. Not saying it's better to have them this young, but she has at least somewhat of a choice whether she wants to continue or not. She doesn't have a baby who cries and eats and poops and sleeps 24/7, she has a toddler that can be cared for more easily than a newborn.
So basically what I'm trying to say is that girls who become pregnant and obviously cannot care for the child, or give him a good home, NEED to make the right decision. They can either NOT have sex, have an abortion, or give the baby up for adoption. And don't say, "Maybe they kept it because of their religion!", because these girls have NO morals at all, and probably have never even heard of a Bible, let alone gone to church.
I WILL give props to the teen moms who are capable and determined to finish school, get a good job, and have a good place for a baby to live. At least some people are mature and level-headed.

The Reason I'm Such A Misanthrope.
So things haven't really been going all that great for me, thanks to the amount of assholes there are in my life.
Someone was supposed to make up for their asshole-ness by making this weekend all about me. But nope, video games are more important.
Someone else was supposed to accompany me to a birthday party where I hated 95% of the people, but said person decided to accompany said people.
On a good note, I went to some expensive ass hair salon and got my hair cut. It looks great, I love my hair short.
But yeah. I'm feeling pretty angry so I don't have anything funny or witty to say.
