Anyone want to get leave society with me and live in the wild?

I hope that this satisfies my loyal readers who have been so nice as to demand that I write a new blog ;)

After spending three hours in the mall this morning I started thinking about how out of place I felt. Did I really want to walk around and buy more stuff? Now I do love clothes, but for the fashion and the creativity. I actually dispise the act of shopping and paying for clothes. I think all clothes should be free. Clothes are a form of expression. If we can have free speech and freedom of religion, why can't we have free clothes? This should be something that the government provides for its citizens. I am venturing to guess that soon clothes are going to be just too expensive for some people and I don't want walk around in a society where people aren't wearing clothes becasuse they can't afford them, ew. This may sound a bit materialistic and dumb but really my whole point is that society is getting ridiculous. Can't we all just do our own thing? I mean yesterday I saw an eight year old girl (or younger) using her camera phone!?!? I didn't have a cell phone when I was eight and I lived! What is the world coming to?

"Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house that you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it." Ellen Goodman

Newseum

Instead of putting up a quote for my food for thought I decided to switch it up with a wesite instead. This is really cool!! Or at least to me it is since I am studying the media to be part of the media one day. Check it out! You might even learn something (gasp!).

Waiting...

So now I am offically moved in. My roomies are here, my stuff is all organized and I feel all settled in. Despite all this I have this feeling like something is off, I just can't figure out what it is. But oh well, I still think that this year is going to AWESOME!! I can feel it. So basically I have mixed feelings, but that is to be expected. I just wish classes would start so I can get back into the swing of things. I feel like I am just waiting for stuff to happen, I want it to start happening. NOW!
