How society nowadays reacts to Gay Individuals

Ellen Degeneres
It literally took me hours to figure out what to write today. I just could not figure out what to write about today, as in worldly issues so I figured that might not be a thing I should write about on a weekly manner. Maybe once in a while because that is the one thing that takes me so long to figure out. However, I am still thinking about what to write about. It also took me long to figure out if I should write about the topic at all because it is a touchy subject with some people. At the end I thought, it is my blog, I decide what goes on here and what doesn't.

This might be a sensible topic to write about because there are still many people that are against it, however, as the months go by more and more people accept it. I am sure you can see where this is going and probably judging by the title you know what this is about.

I have been watching more than a few shows at a time during the past couple of months and I found it strange at first that so many of them were accepting the appearance of gay characters. For example, The Fosters, it is a show
Jodie Foster
about a family with two moms, yes they are gay. The show is about their struggle to fit in society and have their family be accepted, however, that is a minor conflict of the show. The show focuses on other issues that have nothing to do with the fact that they live in a gay household. I have also seen things like this in other shows. The show Twisted that just came out this year has a couple of instances where the topic is plainly portrayed.

Honestly, I have no problem with this. I think that gay people are actually very happy. I have a relative who is gay and he is a really close friend of mine. Since I am talking to friends, I'll let you in on a secret, I think all girl
s should have a guy friend who is gay. I, quite truly think it is amazing to have a friend like that because they have so many opinions. I know that my cousin might be reading this so Hey! I love you! (LoL)

Zachary Quinto
Gay people are normal people and for years they were segregated away from society. It was something to be ashamed of, and I am happy that they are finally getting the respect that they deserve. I am actually happy that it is becoming something that is considered normal, instead of something that should be looked down upon. I know that there are many people who are still against it and they see it like something that society should be ashamed of, but that is not the case. I don't understand why some people are just so scared of this concept, which is not a concept any longer, it is a fact. Have you taken a look at all the actors and actresses that have proudly announced that they are gay? Jodie Foster, I am sure you have heard of her, amazing actress; Ricky Martin, Latin Musician; Raven Symone, from the show.... yes you guess right, That's so Raven; Matt Bomer, if you are familiar with the show White Collar; Zachary Quinto, if you are familiar with him it is from either from Star Trek, or the show Heroes;  Of course, Ellen DeGeneres, an amazing lady, she is also very funny, has her own show and does the voice for Dory (Finding Nemo).

So yea, have a nice day guys,

Andy :)

Why are teenagers so attracted to the social media?

This thought literally come to mind last night. I thought about it too much though because this might end up being a rant on video or maybe not because I am so attracted to the social media.

I have to say that when I was in high school, social media was a must have. Everyone was on Myspace, that is the first thing I remember. I also remember how strict my parents were about that. I had to make a Myspace profile behind their backs and be so careful that they didn't catch me on it because that would be the end of me! Anyway, after Myspace passed along, with a good life if I dare to add, Facebook came along!

I had to check my Facebook at least once a day because if I didn't I would die! Since I got out of high
school and into life, I don't stress over it as much as I did before. I mean, I am not going to be a hypocrite and say that I am not a Facebook fan because I am and I still check it often. Not as often as I did when I was in high school but often enough. Also, I am not attracted to it for the same reasons I wanted to be on Facebook before. For example, back then I wanted to be on Facebook so I could be on contact with my friends and my boyfriend. I also liked to see what was going on with other people. Don't lie because you do that too!

Now, it is different. I use my Facebook to talk to my mom mostly. I erased many people that I had added when I was in high school because I found no point to having random people that I had never spoken to on my high school years. Why have those people there, I mean before I could make an argument that I might need some homework, or to find out special school event dates. However, I would for sure not make that argument after I graduated. Eventually, if anything, I will start adding former co workers or classmates from college, but eventually those friendships will shatter as well because only some of them last.

Back to my point, I think that kids now a days are attracted to the social media because it is a thing that everyone has. I mean, Instagram! I love it, I am not going to lie because that is one thing I do love to check everyday because some pictures are amazing. However, instagram is not like facebook. There isn't a lot of personal interactions other than the commenting and liking of pictures. Facebook gets more personal and people kind of humiliate each other there. I suppose we
can say that Facebook looks like it is going to have a pretty long life. I am not sure whether I made the point I was trying to say.... Hmm.. People want to be on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, because that is the thing to do nowadays. You could probably find just about anyone on those sites, unless they blocked you or they don't own a computer....

So yea, keep on playing around on those social medias my friends, I know I will,
Andy

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there

In the past couple of years that I have been in a relationship and now married, there has been so many times when my husband and I talked about having kids. The thought of becoming a mother lingers in my mind to this day. Not that any of you might care, or maybe it is too much information but I am on birth control because I don't want to have a baby anytime soon. However, I have had conversations with my husband about what would happen if we were to have kids and this is were I give props to every mother out there, including my own.

When I was thinking about having a baby I thought about all the new foreign responsibilities that would come up. All the things that would have to change in order for us to be fit to take care of our child. All the sacrifices that we would have to make.... I realized that my mom gave up all of those things I still refuse to give up, my mom made all of those sacrifices that I refuse to make. She gave up a life of freedom to take care of her two daughters. Her life stopped being about her and became completely ours. She gave up her life for her children. I respect that so much... She was just 18 when she had me, and I am 20 and I am still refusing to have a baby.

So for all the mothers out there, I say happy mother's day... but everyday is mother's day, because mothers aren't just mothers one day of the year, they are mothers year round, 24/7, for their whole life after having their child. Even after their kids no longer live with them, they are still mothers because they will think of their kids all the time even after they no longer live together. I figured all of this out the minute that my husband and I started thinking about having a baby... When I am a mother I know all of these things will happen and for me to be able to have a baby, I have to be prepared to do all of these things. For the meanwhile, I will salute my mother and all of the mothers out there who don't hear this too often:
My mom, sister and me when we were just kids.
You are an amazing woman, congratulations on what you have achieved in life because I know it is hard to achieve things in life with kids, if anything at all. So, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, you are amazing and I salute you because you are a brave an intelligent woman. Your children mean this and they love you dearly. I am pretty sure :)

Happy Mother's Day,
Andy


PS. I love you mom, thank you for raising us and loving us the way you do. I miss you and I wish I could be with you to wish you happy mother's day and happy birthday :)

California earthquakes, what is going on?!

My husband and I got married on March 28, 2014 and there was an earthquake that night.

Earthquakes around California since 17th century up to the
21st century.
For as long as I can remember, I know people have been saying that "the big one" is coming (I am talking about earthquakes here). I have lived through quite a bit of earthquakes here in California and I am sure if you live in California you have as well.

I remember one lecture in my earth science class about earthquakes, that one lecture is the one that pops into my head every single time there is an earthquake. I remember studying about the energy that makes up earthquakes. Maybe not energy but pressure, I am bad at remembering stuff so please correct me if I am wrong. Supposedly, energy (or pressure) builds up in the faults and under the earth's crust. An earthquake is the release of that pressure, it a sort of way for the earth to relieve itself, I would put it that way. I have a point, I promise. Keep reading.

People have been saying that there is a big earthquake coming to California because energy has been building up. However, we keep having all these little earthquakes, doesn't that mean that much of that energy that had built up has been released and the magnitude of that "big earthquake" that is coming won't be as bad? We might not even have that big earthquake at all if we just keep having a bunch of little earthquakes. Am I wrong?

I mean, all of this is just a simple theory, or more of a question because I wish I knew where people were getting their information about the big earthquake coming. There was like five earthquakes around the area were I live in the past 2 or 3 months alone. Imagine all of California.

Maybe I am just making up all of this so that I won't be as scared because of this thing that is supposedly going to happen, I don't know. Please correct me if I am wrong...

Andy
