Hello!

Dearest Readers,

I have decided that not only can I rant about music and my little monster, but I could rant on a number of topics! Since as of late I like to separate my thoughts that are spewed across the internet, I've decided that it is necessary to keep a live journal (for writing down all the crazy adventures and such), a music blog (that i always say I'm going to start doing hardcore again, but seam not to have the drive or time), an aiden blog, a being green blog and now a ranting blog sans Aiden.

It's actually funny what makes me want to start blogging about things other than aiden and music. It happened just about 2 weeks ago at work. I was flipping through a newspaper in the break room where i came across a story about a 13 year old boy who had killed himself. It wasn't just any 13 year old boy it was a 13 year old with a bright future, lots of friends, what seamed to be pretty hip parents and seamed to be loving life. Well it they say he killed himself because of the acne medication he was on. WOW!

It was my topic of talk for the rest of my break. One of my fellow works came in and i overheard what i was saying. She mentioned she was on the medication so i threw her the article. She huffed at it and said what bullshit. Now i know i'm young but this person was a stereotypical, media brained washed 18 year old. Its common knowledge that most prescription drugs have odd side effects. Yet this girl had no clue of this and it made me think. Are people just so brainwashed now? i mean there is a small 5 year age difference between me and this girl, but i am not that jaded.

And that's why we are where we are today. I am confused and upset with how this world has become and I have a lot to say about it. It's not like my concerns matter, but this gives me an option to get stuff out. maybe in the process I'll be able to help someone or give some one a little insight into another way of thinking.
