Just editing a few bugs on this blog. Added links to my friends' blogs.

take the emo quiz - created by jessi

Freaky, what the Hell did I do?? I did nothing to hurt you, that I am aware of. I would never intentionally hurt you at all! You know that! It hurts that you blocked and ignored me without reason or explaination. If it has anything to do with my situation with Marc, then I am disappointed that you lied. You promised you would never take sides. If you are going to play the "cold-hearted bitch" game, then be my guest!

Have you seen this commercial ASHA made? You can go HERE to view the commercial I was talking about. Watch the advertisement showed where this guy was driving an old VW Beetle in heavy traffic. He was not looking where he is going as he is trying to get out of the very noisy traffic jam. He went reverse and hit the vehicle behind him, then he moved forward and hit the vehicle in front of him. Their slogan is "Keep an Eye on Your Ears!" After watching the commercial, it left me feeling appalled and offended! It felt like I should be damned and not allowed to drive because I can't hear! It didn't help any better that the commercial was not even closed-captioned! Try watching that commercial again with the sound turned off. What's the idea you are getting from watching that commercial? I understand not all commercials would be closed captioned. But aside from the captioning issue, I am more concerned with the ASHA commercial giving hearing people a general idea that Deaf people cannot drive! Here are some added comments from people I know and hope they don't mind that I am sharing this with you: Patty: My perspective of that commercial.. get your hearing checked every once in a while because hearing people do not realize they are actually losing their hearing bit by bit. The commercial is actually promoting "healthy hearing". Marc: At first, when I saw this commerical, I did feel that it exhibited a message that people who have lost their hearing drive badly and will crash into other cars. I felt that it would compel the hearing people to think that hearing is very critical for driving, therefore deaf people should not drive at all. I know that it is not the intention of the society to broadcast that message. We already have enough hearing people who think Deaf people can't drive, so we don't need a commerical to validate that belief system. Here are several email addresses I got from their website: actioncenter@asha.org leader@asha.org ethics@asha.org Please email ASHA to post a public explaination that their commercial is not intended to encourage hearing people's misconceptions that Deaf people cannot drive, and/or ask them to remove the commercial and post a public apology. http://www.asha.org

For the guys: Got Milk?

I think I am going to write a book: "101 Creative Ways to Kill Yourself"

If you have friends, ask yourself this: "Am I a true friend?" I know I wouldn't leave a friend hanging there alone if they needed help. True friends don't give up on their friends. True friends don't give "tough love". I know what tough love is, because I had it my whole life. When I think of "tough love", it makes me think of negative feelings. I admit to being somewhat negative, but being negative to me doesn't help. So, I know "tough love" doesn't work for me. Constructive criticism works better.

I have come across new information this week that my former roommate, Aaron Williams, admitted publicly to kicking me out of my residence in Orem, Utah. He caused me unnecessary hardship and emotional abuse, resulting in forcing me out of the place. I moved out because I wanted the peace. Obviously, he loves to contend with others, especially me! It's no surprise this asshole isn't married yet! Dude, here's a free clue for you: "People HATE to be controlled and disrespected. Stop trying to lord over others and learn to control yourself!"

I am adding the search option for my site!! YAY!

search //  

* searching blogger's archives is messy, you will have to do a "find" or CTRL-F to search for the topic you are looking for.

Also, in the past two days, I have made several retro style brushes. I will post them online later for public use.

Ugh! I slept very short last night because I had 2 different nightmares. I hope it'll never happen again!

I added a script to show random webshots or pics of myself on the top, right corner of this page.

Working on another poem.. :: bound :: standing on the edge, looking down teeter, totter, eyes closed, nerves black, bottomless pit, growing vast swirling, twirling, spinning mind, raw gravity pulls, chains on my soul, tight grinding, binding, heart beating hard (cont..) -philip © 2003
