Gay Marriage

I know gay/same-sex marriage is a popular debate these days. And it's been on my mind a lot lately.

I'm going to give you my opinion on it, and what I believe about it.

I don't believe in same-sex marriage. There it's said. I'm not gonna go on a long rant about how all homosexuals should go perish in hell for the rest of their lives, because I don't think that's right. Nobody should go to hell, and I don't want anyone to go to hell.

Now what ticks me off about this whole thing is that if you don't believe in same-sex marriage you're all of a sudden the most evil person who has ever lived on this earth. Everyone all of a sudden hates you and thinks you're disgusting..and have no heart. And if you don't believe in same-sex marriage you are wrong. There's no doubt about it.

What's wrong with not believing in same sex-marriage? Do you all think that we are heart less and have no soul? Do you think we are ignorant and stupid? Do you think we think that you all deserve to get bullied?

What about the people that get picked on because they DON'T believe in homosexuality? Are we just gonna ignore them too? Do you all think that they deserve it?

See how it bad it sounds...either way we look at it.. I'm not so strong on the gay marriage thing it's not something I'm passionate about. But it's just you're making it look like we are the bad guys.

Even as a non believer of homosexuality, despite what you all believe I think the same thing that homosexuals most likely think.

Why can't you just accept us?

I don't know if you accidentally clicked on a link or really like my blog and just scared to leave a comment on one of my post. But anyway thank you for running across it.

Band Camp

Now instead of my daily life consisted of tumblr, I have a new schedule that fills up my time. And I mean all of it. Band camp, sounds like fun doesn't it? I'm absolutely sure it's fun to march out in one hundred degree weather for four hours, while carrying a five to ten pound instrument. Oh the joy! Fortunately I didn't have do any of this stuff since I'm in the Pit. (The Pit is the people you see in the front of the marching band that are standing and don't march at all. They just play percussion.)  I get to stay in a air conditioned room all day, but that's no fun either. I stand most of the time and sometimes the room gets really really cold.

You probably think percussion is easy. To any of you people that play an instrument besides percussion, and think all we do is bang on a keyboard with sticks, you are all wrong. It's waaaay harder than it looks. There's a certain way you have to hit the keyboard, and it has to come back up at a certain height. You can only use your wrists when stroking down, you never use your arms. And if you don't have good hand eye coordination it's freaking hard. And as soon as you hit that keyboard with the stick you better pop your wrists back up as fast as you can, or else they'll make you do it over again. Plus it sounds horrible.

I used to think that playing percussion was easy and they were lucky that they get to have easy music but that has all changed. There is nothing easy about percussion. After playing so long a practicing you get blisters on your hand and you have to push through. And you mostly likely have thee instruments to deal with at once.

Do not underestimate the Pit.

The Dark Knight Rises

A few days or weeks ago I saw The Dark Knight Rises. The movie was great. I'll admit I was a little scared to go because of the Colorado Massacre. Even though that happened about a week before I had seen it.

While we were in the movie theater and the previews were playing one guy got up and answered his phone and left the movie theater. I can't explain to you how much that freaked me out. In the Colorado incident the guy who had done the shooting left the movie theater to check his phone, and after the is when he did the shooting. Fortunately, the guy who had left my movie theater came back with nothing in his hand and sat back down. The same man still got up and went to the front of the movie theater to check the time. And again this freaked me out. This guy was really suspicious to me, why was he moving so much? I'm sure it was making the other people anxious too. But after a while he stopped moving at sat where he was throughout the whole movie.

And if you are ever going to see this movie, I advise that you see the first two. Especially the first one.

I'm not going to finish this post without discussing the Colorado Massacre. In case you didn't know the Colorado Massacre happened during the midnight premiere of The Dark Knight Rises.

A man, known as James Holmes opened fire in a Denver, Colorado theater. 58 were wounded and 12 were killed. Holmes was a successful college student. He had a great future in front of him. He was arrested outside of the theater and during his arrest he announced: "I am the Joker"

I'm sure most of you all of have seen at least one picture of James, but most of give him all of the attention, but we have forgotten about the victims of this event. We have also forgotten the heroes. Jon Blunk, Matt McQuinn and Alex Teves jumped in front of a bullet to protect their girlfriends. None of them survived. It was a heroic and noble action, and I think we can all consider them heroes.

I wish I could find the names of all of the victims in this shooting, but I couldn't find any.

And just to end this with a happy note. Christian Bale, the actor of Batman, visited the wounded victims in the hospital. I'm sure that was amazing to meet him.
