I had a good day today. Free periods all day basically. Rehearsal was great and I got this kick ass belt at Wal-mart. The first item of clothing I've ever bought there.

Something this sophmore in my Chemistry class said to me really got to me. I wasn't mad or anything, but it's kind of depressing. "I'd like to be friends with you, but I can't because you're gay." I asked him why, and he said his parents won't let him. It's really sad how parents push their beliefs onto their children. I'm glad my parents have always been open, and willing to talk about anything and everything. While they made me go to church in my early years, I eventually chose a different route and they didn't seem to mind. I know my dad doesn't care that I'm gay, but I think my mom does. I'm sure she wants grandchildren, and can envision being a matriarch of a huge family. It is a little sad, and I hope Ollie doesn't turn out to be gay too. It's hard.

I was at Barnes and Noble, looking through the New Age section, and I saw a book promoting Satanism. Of course I picked it up and checked it out. I think it's extremely cool that we live in a country where you can freely promote your religion of choice. While I don't believe in Satan or hell, I'd like to read the book. Might be eye-opening.
