Haters’ gotta hate (or not)
The word hate is very strong, but seem to have lost part of its meaning. I think that hate is a word to strong to use when you are talking about a for an example, a commercial, or maybe a person you haven’t even met.
Here is the dictionary’s description of what hate is.
hate |hāt|
verb [ trans. ]
feel intense or passionate dislike for (someone) : the boys hate each other | he was particularly hated by the extreme right.
• have a strong aversion to (something) : he hates flying | [with infinitive ] I'd hate to live there.
• [with infinitive ] used politely to express one's regret or embarrassment at doing something : I hate to bother you.
noun
intense or passionate dislike : feelings of hate and revenge.
• [as adj. ] denoting hostile actions motivated by intense dislike or prejudice : a hate campaign.
DERIVATIVES
hatable |ˈhātəbəl| (also hateable) adjective
There has also been a lot of ”chainstatuses” as for an example ”copy and paste this to your status if you would scream ‘JUMP’ if you saw Justin Beiber on a rooftop”
What I dont understand is how people can say such things about a person they haven’t even met.
Imagine seing a complete stranger on a rooftop, would you really encourage them to take their own life?
I can understand that people dislike the music, but does that really mean that you hate the actual person and actually want them to die? Or do you? If you do, please comment, I would love to hear somebody disagreeing with me.

Sexuality?
There was one text that upset me really much. There was a guy that had sent a message like "I had a wonderful evening last night Michel" by mistake to his mother.
His parents got really mad and told him that he wasn't accepted in the family anymore. There were many texts like this and many with the same response from the parents.
That is completely sick. And usual.
Many parent's would never accept having a homosexual or bisexual child. I think that is completely horrible. I mean, if you love your child, shouldn't you love the whole child? As you like your children's birthmarks that makes them unique, you should like the sexuality that makes your child unique.
Think about this. How would you react if your child, brother, sister, cousing, close friend came out of the closet? Would you be mad? Would you be surprised? Would you be disgusted? Or maybe disapointed?
I don't think that there is anything wrong with beeing surprised, but by being disgusted, mad or disapointed you are just helping a homophobic society to stay homophobic.
Do we want to move forward or backward in time?
(Personally I'd like to move forward)
How to make someones life a little less miserable in 4 steps
Why?
The workers bend down and pick up the cotton by hand, wich makes their backs hurt, they get parasites that live in the mud that the cotton grows in eats their way through the workers skin, the chemicals that are used to kill bugs are mixed with the water makes a deadly cocktail that sinks into the workers skin when they stand with water and mud up to their knees picking cotton.
But that's nothing compared to the actual reason why they're actualle called "the fields of death".
The people that work in the cottonfields are extremely poor. In India there is barely a middle class, only working class and upper class. This is tricking the workers into taking expensive loans that they cant afford with their pay (I wouldn't call it pay though). This is a horrible doom that very often, or almost always, makes the workers commit suicide.
The workers aren't adults, they are often children that are trying to help supporting their families.
But don't get depressed, there are ways to help!
Fairtrade is a foundation that helps workers get better conditions. The certification fairtrade means that the product is made with a fair pay, that there weren't any children making the product, that the workers had realistic conditions and that they weren't harmed making the product.
There are many fairtrade products, some of them are easier to get and some of them are harder to get. Some that are easy get are fairtrade coke, fairtrade soccerballs and fairtrade clothes, especially jeans.
So how do you make someones life less miserable?
You will need:
- some extra money
- a store where you can buy fairtrade
- a will to help people in need
Step 1. Go to a store.
Step 2. Choose the fairtrade things instead of the ordinary, less expensive things.
Step 3. Pay.
Step 4. Spread the word about fairtrade!
crack a joke and live!
As soon as you buy something you want the upgrade, as soon as you saw the movie you're waiting for the followup, as soon as you reach a goal you put up a new. Så fort man nått sitt mål skapar man ett annat!
You go to preschool to prepare for elementaryschool, in elementaryschool you hear "this is how it's done in high school", you go to high school to prepare for "the real world. "Man går i sexårsverksamhet för att förbereda sig inför skolan, i grundskolan får man höra ”så här gör man på gymnasiet” sen går man gymnasiet för att förbereda sig inför ”det verkliga livet”.
You work to make money and you look forward to the weekend. What society are we living in when people only live two days out of seven? I'm just wondering. We who go school are looking forward to the weekends for two things. Every weekend it's the same choice. Party or sleep? Do you really have to choose between having fun or resting? It's hard to choose what's best for you, rest so school will be easier or having fun. But what is the best? For the physical health, for your grades and all that stuff sleeping is the best, definitely. Bot for your mental health? Here are the options:
1. be a "good girl" with straight A's and get in to harvard or having fun
2. getting bad grades and regret it the rest of your life.
Is there really something in between? It's the same with food. To choose that delicios ice cream or an okay apple? I'd definitely choose the ice cream. My belly might not be the flatest but at least the ice cream was good.
There are so much people that doesn't think that way. I feel sorry for the - mostly women that are trying to live up to all of these crazy ideals. Of course, your grades and fysical health are important, but don't stress yourself to death and start growing grey hair before you even are 20 years old.
be yourself! if you're not you, who else is going to be?
In between youths there are many unnecessary groups. To have a need of group belonging that you start destroying your body, by cutting yourself or smoking is just sad. That also makes it possible to se a person and know how confident he/she is. It's tragic to see how many people there are that are tryong to be something they're really not. It's also tragic how many people there are that has to push others down just to confirm themselves.
Do something about this - be yourself!
