I recently read some of "The Poaster Toaster", and to put it nicely, I'm no fan. I feel like he is incredibly pig-headed and short-sighted, not to mention spoiled out of his damn mind. He talks some serious shit* on Islam, and on welfare, and I just think that he needs to reevaluate his opinions, because he is the kind of person who is ruining the human race.
First off, I am no fan of Islam, but really? That is their religion you are talking about! I don't know what belief system you have, but I'm pretty sure you would be offended if some jack-ass teenage boy started talking about how stupid it is.
And also, you talk crap on them going to Mecca. Now as I have said, I don't know if you are religious or not, but for the sake of the fact that we are in Utah County, I am going to assume you are LDS. As a Latter-Day Saint, we go to the Temple, and often. This is the exact same thing. They go to Mecca. That is their holy place. We always talk about how amazing it is when someone treks across their country just to get to the Temple one time in their life, so why is it any different when a Muslim does it? I know I'm sounding like a jerk by calling this guy dumb so many times, but he is one of the most ignorant people I have ever heard.
Now about the hair. They don't show their hair for the same reasons we wear garments. BECAUSE IT'S WHAT WE BELIEVE. I bet you don't like the fact that mormons get crap for wearing magic underwear, but it is what we believe, so what gives you the right to mock another religion for doing what they think is right? Who made you the judge over religion and what is ridiculous?
I don't know, maybe he is Jesus here for the second coming and has the right to do this, but I highly doubt it.
*I apologize for the obscenity, but "poop" and "crap" didn't feel like they had enough power in that context

Fears
Alright, I haven't done much of a job of keeping this blog, but I figured that since I have an 18% in the class right now, it's probably time to start. Sound logic right?
Well anyway, I'm really struggling to find what to say, because I want this blog to be "good" but I'm not the kind of writer that makes things depressing, aka, "good". I fully appreciate how great of a writer Esther Greenwood is, but I can't right like her. I don't write depressing stuff, although my writing may be depressing with how underdeveloped it is. Hahahaha, get it? No? Alright...
About fears though. I'm afraid of not being good enough. I don't care what most people in the school think of me, but of what my family thinks of me. I know they would never admit it, but I think I might have been a disappointment to them, and that scares me. I'm scared that they love me too much to let me know. I'm scared that because they don't want to be hurtful, they just let me continue on in my mediocrity. I'm scared that I'm a younger brother in more than just age, but in all aspects.
I'm scared that I will never be a man in their eyes. I'm scared that eventually, I will become a man in their eyes and start having to take responsibility. I'm scared that I'm making my family seem like bad people. They aren't. They have treated me wonderfully, and I'm scared that when I have a family of my own, I won't be as amazing they are.
Now on non-family related fears, I'm scared of spiders, they are the bane of my existence. I'm scared of heights, like, anything over about 8 feet... I'm scared of being the last one in the house to fall asleep.
I'm scared of dieing alone, but I'm scared of commitment. I'm scared of going on a mission, but I'm scared of being judged if I don't. I'm scared that I'm not as smart as I think I am, but I'm scared that I'm even smarter than I think because then there are no excuses for why I get bad grades.
I'm scared of trying my best. I'm scared that my best isn't good enough.
I'm scared of going to bed late and not getting enough sleep, but I'm scared of going to bed early, and missing something.
A lot of people are saying they are scared of reaching their potential, and I am too, but I'm scared of reaching my potential and finding out that I'm just some average Joe Schmoe.
I'm scared of a lot of things, but one thing I'm not scared of is snakes. Yeah, you heard me, I don't even have the beginnings of a fear of snakes.
