Okay, so there was a sit in at my school recently over the whole “Freedom of Speech” issue… it made the news. But they totally butchered the facts making it seem like the kids were out of hand! It was over a speech that was APPROVED but then LATER denied… it was ridiculous! But it was so funny, our school ALWAYS complains about lack of school spirit… but we had it today… or spirit for our rights… I read the full uncensored version of the piece. Here are some quotes I particularly liked… It reminds be alot of Buddhism… or Zen … or something like that… pardon my ignorance… I’m pretty sure it’s Buddhism though. Since the Prince (who was given everything he ever wanted) left his castle and gave up everything he owned to reach nirvana… and it’s kinda what it says in the piece
Quotes from a Speech that was censored at my school (it was written by a student)
“forget. But do not regret. And do not hope. You are not your past; you are not your future; you are not the things you have; you are not the things you don’t have. Everything you feel, everything you think, is a distorted reflection of everything you are. Nothing is pure. In having nothing, you can be pure.”
“You cannot know something, truly know something, until you have known its opposite. Everything is relative. How can you say you’re happy if you’ve never felt pain? How would you even know what happiness is? The only way to be free to lose all freedom.”
“if we perceive nothing, what does the world matter to us? If we do not see it, smell it, feel it, taste it, hear it, think it, how do we know it exists? Why do we care? it is because we know that eventually, we will open our eyes.”
This is the conclusion paragraph of the essay… wow is it amazing…
“Just think, if you fall asleep right now, you will not wake up — a different you will open his eyes and he will see a different world. The you that fell asleep, the world that you last saw — these things will no longer exist. They will have been consumed by the past, absorbed by the way things can never be again. The past is gone.
So deal with it. Stop trying to hold on. Stop trying to control things. Stop your stupid pursuit of righteous self importance. Stop worrying, stop caring, stop searching for meaning, because there is none. Stop asking right or wrong, stop fucking living for others, stop your mind, stop your soul, stop everything that isn’t the thing you are — just be. Exist as you are. Don’t. live caged by influence but don’t revel in stagnation, either. Just lie back and be. Just live life detached and die free.”
It was an AMAZING speech, I loved it! I like the message as unattainable as it is…
Some of my favorite Hello! Project members (not all of them, not necessarily current members)
Ayaka Kimura of Coconuts Musume… they really need to use her for something…
Maki Goto… AMAZING singer… yeah… 
JunJun one of the newest members of Momusu (she’s Chinese!!! Gasp! A Chinese in a JAPANESE group!!! Yes… it’s AMAZING!! I love it <3 )
Aiiiiiiiboonnnn, yes Kago Ai, part of W… too bad all the chaos happened with the smoking and Tsuji’s deal…
Michishige Sayumi – she was my first favorite member (she had already joined by the time I got into Momusu (it was during her early years)
Mika Taressa Todd – AMAZING <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 She’s an AMAZING singer, GREAT actress (in Mini Moni Brementown), Bilingual, and just AMAZING!!! She was in Mini Moni… the outfit she’s wearing in the picture was from Mini Moni’s “CRAZY ABOUT YOU” single… great single… one of the first singles I bought of H!P
Aika… she’s just sooo adorable! and when she sings with Koharu her voice does magic and makes Koharu’s less squeaky sounding without Aika sounding squeaky.
Reina Tanaka… a favorite among most Momusu fans (… well.. depending on what “group” of fans you ask… one side LOVEEESSSS Reina like crazy… and the other… well… they think she gets WAY too many lines)
Another Reina one… I just put this one up because I love her outfit… of course… I like the outfit of the picture above… and… all her outfits XP
RuRu from T&C Bomber… I don’t actually really know much about her… but she’s pretty
Why the hell would a parent allow their kid to has cosmetic surgery?! And I’m NOT talking about someone who got disfigured in an injury… I’m talking about, a pretty girl that doesn’t like her nose or something stupid like that and under-goes surgery to look better… honestly! Media has changed people, personally I LOVE media, and I LOVE Celebrities (not fond of American ones though, I like Japanese ones better). But people have really put an emphasis on being pretty… whatever happened to personality?! It’s like that doesn’t matter anymore! I know in my school ANYONE can get a date if they have confidence, it doesn’t matter how nasty, arrogant, rude, (sometimes even ugly) they are… as long as they have confidence. Unless you’re popular, then you need to have confidence and be flawless… incredibly flawless… usually they wear an insane amount of makeup… and you can usually tell. Though once in a while one of them will blend it in and make it look more natural. Anyway, this is just a rant. And no “you’re just mad because you’re single” I’m not single, I was lucky. At least Valentine’s day isn’t too commercialized (at least not at my age) so that people don’t feel too bad at Valentine’s Day. I have no idea what to do for it…eh… I’ll think of something… eventually… hopefully… I have no idea… whatever though
