    Women and our jobs
    Its funny that so many women (especially from my generation) completely reject becoming mothers who stay with the children and do laundry, wash dishes, cook (i need to learn... bruske no comments on getting in the kitchen! lol) and such and such. I don't see what's so bad about it. I think its cool that women have certain jobs were generally better at than men. I also think its cool that women can be self sufficient, hard working, career women. Can't all these things on both ends of the spectrum be considered part of what it means to be a woman?

    I'm obviously not a radical, hard core, burn the bras type of feminist. I think those kinds of people have some crazy views.

    I'm annoyed with the world
    It still amazes me that people who are so educated can be so ignorant. I admit that there are many things in this world that I will never know and many things that I have yet to learn. It seems like there are many people who will not admit that there may be some things they'll never know. The audacity of people who claim that they have figured out how the world works is ridiculous. I'm mainly complaining about some of the professors I'm dealing with. I respect that professors are usually highly educated people who are knowledgeable in their field and sometimes considered experts, but even experts don't know everything. I feel like academia looks down on me for leaving some thing to faith and speculation. I want to laugh at them. Human beings are smart creatures created in the image of God. However, none of us were there at the beginning of time/creation. None of our "scientific processes" are 100% fool proof or exact. The only thing that humans can do is "study in order to be sure of things to a high degree of certainty..." And thats as far as we get. I appreciate the fact that my faith humbles me and reminds me that humans are not all knowing. We are creatures subject to God's will. We cannot control the natural world around us, we have only been blessed with the knowledge to be able to manipulate parts of our natural world and use it to our advantage. How dare anyone tell me that my faith is empty and based on a wish or a chance. I have just as much archaeological evidence as "you" do for my case (that there is such thing as God) on top of the observational, every day evidence that most people don't stop to look at.

    I don't expect everyone to understand or share my views but when people step on my toes and challenge what I believe, I hope they understand that my faith is sound because my God is sound. Just as I have to expect their attacks, they must understand that I am willing and able on the defense.

    Current Mood: determined
    Current Music: Metal :)

    If anyone has any questions about alcohol you can totally ask me, I'm educated now lol. (Drugs and Behavior Class: Alcohol lecture)

    Even though I'm probably the most inexperienced person ever when it comes to drinking, I'll consult my lecture slides.

    wahhhH!
    Okie day, so I'm going through a mood. I think this mood is familiar to many people unfortunately but allow me to tell you what mood I'm in... IM BROKE AND CAN'T STAND IT. ::phew:: lol i feel a bit better now. I was outta work for about a month and now I'm back to work in retail (...yay...) but I haven't gotten my check yet and I NEED IT. My family have not been doing well in the finance department either so where they would have been able to cover me before, they can't now. However, I do have blessings in this.
    - My credit card payment is very small.
    - My phone bill is pretty small.
    - Gas still gets put in my tank.
    - I'm almost done paying dag nabbin tuition.
    I just feel very limited in what I do and where I go which is difficult since now is not necessarily the best time to be at home. Everyone is so depressed all the time. Mostly, if there's no yelling or crying, my parents just sleep. It's not so much that I am sick of it (which I am), more so that i have to sit and watch because there's nothing I can do about it. Bleh, meh, peh, sigh, grrrrr. < lol thats what my vocabulary has consisted of lately.

    On the up note, I get a reprieve from being sad when I'm around my friends but in particular, my boyfriend. It obvious that God knew I would need Rob in my life at this point. :) Even though I have to nag at him sometimes for various "guy activities" (like watching south park, playing guitar hero, or making late night poker night every night haha), if I need him he's there for me no matter what. Some good, some bad, I guess that's life. I'm just thankful I have faith to hang on to and people to help me do it.

    the music plays on
    I need to re-vamp my christian perspectives and get back to my bible studies. Lots on my mind lately. Too much that I can't do anything about. I'm so thankful to have the loving boyfriend that do or I would lose my mind. I'm also thankful to know that God is there and as long as I follow Him, there's only so much this world can do to me.

    Current Mood: thankful

    I have not used this profile in literally years. It's interesting to me because the friends I had on here then probably will never read this post and if you do and you're one of those people, COMMENT PLEASE! because I haven't talked to you in forever! I'll start by stating that I'm almost finished with college now (told you it's been a while) and I'll have a degree within the year (B.A. Psychology from Wayne State). I'll be glad to be done because IM REALLY TIRED OF SCHOOL. Last time I was on this thing I was in a band called Fall Prey. We had a 3 year break and I'm pleased to tell you.... the wait for new music is almost over. I am back with the band we've been writing for a few months now. New material should be awaiting your eager ears soon :)

    I wish I could describe to you how incredibly awkward and comical it is to be using livejournal again. Probably the first post in upwards of 3 years. Hope everyone I haven't talked to in ages is well and it'll be an interesting search to see which of my relatively new friends actually uses this site!!!

    so life goes on in the world of amanda jacob. i have a A- in my chem class for this card marking and i should have somewhere around a low B in calc. SHOULD have. :) we have a ton of shows coming up such as the one this friday, st patty's day, march17th, at the modern exchange. that should be un bc we havent played there in a while. not to mention the fact that we'll be playing with our kick ass buddy band pilar of autumn. im really nervous about our show the 24th though. we need to have a band discussion on that one. however knowing the way my band works, we'll probably pull somthing out of our tush and make the four hour set time a possiblity. :) we'll see how this goes. wish us luck and check out the myspace for other shows so you can come see us!

    marcus is friggin ridiculous. the minute i push him away he wants everything to do with me but every time i keep him close im supposedly "smothering him". maybe i should just not talk to him ever again. at least that way i wouldnt be smothering him and maybe he'd even stop by once in a while to try to get my attention. guys want what they cant have... fine. i can play this game

    Current Mood: annoyed
