what i have to do...

ok, so i'm in this class called intro to feminisms. don't ask why i chose it - i registered late and it fulfills my lower level writing intensive gen ed. anyway, the class itself is pretty dumb. basically (for a guy) to do well in the class you have to participate in the discussions, and pretend that you actually believe all of the hippie feminist crap they're teaching you. me being the good student that i am, i'm the one who participates in every class discussion, making the kids laugh with my childish jokes whenever i can. but honestly, half the things i say in that class i don't truly believe. i just have to ACT like i do, and that i actually care about that garbage. ex: (me - "yeah, all men are evil, and if we work together, we can stop the oppression of women."). blah blah blah..

and listen to this.. whenever someone gets offended in class by something in the discussion, that person is supposed to say the "ouch" word out loud - that way everyone knows what's being said might be seen as offensive. like the "facilitator" (which is an undergrad teacher) said that the word "disabled" and the word "third world country" can be seen as offensive, and that we should try not to use them. that's just funny to me. Basically the whole reason why i brought this class up is because we have to write three 18 page journals, and the second one is due on thursday, which i'm not looking forward to writing, but i have to start today...


On another note - i want to start making videos for youtube. i want youtube fame. it seems like it would be so easy to create something funny that would get a lot of hits. you know, something stupid. i'm sure many of my friends collectively can come up with some really stupid stuff. i.e. - scaring people via funny methods.. or how about going to church dressed up as weird characters - like a clown, lumberjack, chef.. basically doing strange stuff in public and getting people's reactions - but not limited to it.. if anyone's interested, let me know.. we could gain fame.

i better get started on that stupid hippie journal.. i'll post tomorrow
