Hello.

It's funny how I hold back on buying $40 shoes for myself, yet have no remorse for spending nearly five times as much on Peter. But I will eventually buy those moccasins.

I've been keeping up with Heroes, and I'm still holding on to the faint glimmer of hope that season 3 will somehow save itself. As Thoreau said, "Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!" Heroes is getting too complicated. Too many characters and subplots. But alls I have to say is, it's about time Peter Petrelli got a haircut.

Tomorrow is the election and my very first time voting. I always wondered to myself whether I'd still be so liberal had I not gone to Berkeley. And in retrospect, my views aren't influenced by Cal at all. It just so happens that most people here happen to agree with me. Back at home, I feel as though some folks have become so blinded by their religion. Picking and choosing from the Bible what applies and what doesn't. Either that, or are just so painfully close-minded. Outside of sexual orientation, it would completely kill my spirit to know that I couldn't marry someone that I loved. And that's what it comes down to. Whether it be between two men, two women, or a man and a woman, the couple loves each other enough to commit to marriage. AND. I absolutely despise the fact that just because a person is pro-choice, some people refer to them as "baby-killers." WTF! Yes, because we all just adore abortion and believe that all pregnant women should have them. Humanity is ridiculous.

Vote for what you believe in. Review both sides of the propositions, and vote accordingly. &Well. Y'know. BARACK THE VOTE. ;]
