McCain Obama / Obama McCain will this election ever be over!

In a few weeks from now we will have a new president and the race is so closes I just want to know who it will be. No matter who wins it will be a historical election. If Obama wins he will be our first African American president, if McCain wins he will be our oldest president ever. Obama and his running mate Senator Joe Biden are the democratic Representatives other wise known as the blue party or the donkey.

Then there is John McCain and the first ever female vice president running mate, Sarah Palin they are the Republican party or the red party or the elephant. at the risk of sounding like P-Diddy Vote or Die!

Screaming mad superfans

Today I was coaching my girls Jv volleyball team for our first Jv tournament. If we had won today we would have played tomorrow, unfortunately we lost but the thing that made the loss so painful for my girls was the fact that during each of there serves a man in the stands would scream " Serve it into the net!!". It was a really close match we were winning by five in the last game when he started to scream. We ended up losing by two points in the third game. After the high fives my girls told me what he had said, the first thought in my mind was how dare he do something so inappropriate and unacceptable. I wanted to slap him but instead it told my girls I would handle it. I first waited for him to come down stairs and I called him aside calmly and and told him that it was completely inappropriate and reminded him that these were 6th and 7th grade girls and that his team has around 21 girls where as my team has only 6 girls. While I was talking to him he said " I have not idea what your talking about" and I was ready to explode but instead I told him that he was out of line for screaming "Serve it into the net!" as soon as I said those words his face went blank and he said he was sorry. But the way he said it gave the impression on I don't give a shit what you think so I went over to the person who was running the tournament and let him handle the man just so no other girls have to go through what my girls went through.

Politics and parenthood

This week while I was watching the presidential debate I noticed how much I was criticizing the other candidate. I am an Obama supporter but I noticed that no matter what McCain said I disagreed with it. During the debate I noticed that with ever negative thing I was saying about John McCain my mom agreed with me.
Think about every household in America what does the relationship between the parent and the child have to do with there political views. My family likes to discuss what we think and share our views and for the most we all agree. So if we moved to some place like Texas I would meet people who were raised to think the opposite of how I was raised. There are people in America who have grew up resenting there parents they would probably vote for the opposite party of there parents. Its the "Family Ties" relationship. What if we were all raised by people who believed in a autocrat society, we would have a few people opposing the new dictatorship but I think that overall we would not object it. I guess my question is Do we believe what we believe because we were raised to?

Breaking the Bank

I have never really paid attention to how much I spend on everything until I started paying for gas and everything else I use. I have a steady babysitting job with a really sweet family but some how all the money I make is gone with in the next week. I need a way to save money while still spending money on things like gas and food. Any suggestions on how to do that?

27 years from now

This weekend my parents had there 25Th New Trier high school reunion. My parents sound like the quintessential high school kids. My mom was a dancer, pretty and smart where as my dad was a starter on the football team that got second in state. They started dating in there senior year so I guess you could call them high school sweet hearts. So when they came home from there reunion I couldn't believe that I could ever get that old. I know 43 isn't that old but when I looked at my life from where I'm at right now it seams like I wont even survive junior year. Things for me for me could not be going any slower right now. I have a billion things going on, I coach girls volleyball as well as play it, I am baby sitting right after school for at least two hours a day, and I am in my schools social service group where we read to under privileged kids. But even with all my activities I still watch the clock tick ever so slowly. When I talk to people they always say make the most of your high school experience. But personally I cant wait till its over!

Playing Palin

Since Jon McCain has chosen Sarah Palin as his running mate we have seen a rise in political humor. Tina Fay's on the spot impression of her on SNL is so good it is scary! This morning I woke up to one of the co-host's on 103.5 Kiss fm doing an amazing impression of her I believed it was her at first. So why is playing Palin so funny?
