Give The G@Y's Some Peace

Why do we hold hands? Kiss in public? Also have our own parades? Thats because we are gay. Gays are people who are interested in the same sex, thats nothing to laugh at because we are regular people just like you all. Why is their so much discrimination and hate against us ? That's because people find it disquisting in what we do. Gay people are just like normal people, but we are interested in the same sex. We do have our own parades once a year or even more depending on the location. The hamilton Gay parade takes place in June mostly the starting of June like the 8th. Toronto pride is way bigger than the Hamilton pride because plenty more people attend and this parade occurs end of June or beggining of July. Why do we have the right to our own parade? Because we are one of the richest demographic groups in the world and we can afford it ? Around a million people attended Toronto's Pride in 2009, and around 4 or 5 million was spent. Well lets get back to the hate, plenty of teens and adults go through a hard time being gay. I myself have been through many of challanges, like being name called or either beaten up. People just seem to hate gay people since we are different. Why are all highschools starting GSA groups in september 09? Thats because they want to change the veiws of people, so they can look at gay people differently ? Orchard Park highschool is starting up a Gay/Straight Alliance because so much hate was going around, that we have come to decision to put it all to end. Two of my gay friends in Orchard Park have been beaten up for being lesbian, one got a stick thrown at her eye and now is color blind while the other got called dyke till she dropped out. I believe highschools are doing the proper thing by starting up GSA groups since students will feel safe and welcomed by all. So whats the whole point of this blog? I just want to state that Gay people should deserve the right to freedom and peace without being discriminated against like everyone else.

 

Paparazzi's stalking me !

I never thought this day would come. I finally completed the lyrics to my song " why I love you". I am so excited and the night is setting in, so I believe I should put my lyrics aside and call it a night. The next morning , I had some breakfast and went to the recording studio where I recorded and published my song. After reording my song, I went out with couple of freinds and had some cofee's while showing them the lyrics to the song. My friends thought the song was deep and emotional, this made me feel really happy. The following evening I finished my homework and decided to hit the sack , since i had school the next morning. On my way to school I picked up couple of friends like rosie,sarina and kristen. On our way to school my song started playing on the radio, and we cranked the speakers since we were all in shock. I noticed a black car was following us to Orchard Park but was confused on who it might be. When arriving at school I noticed tons of kids running towards my car screaming my name. I was really shocked, and did not know what was happening. When steeping out of the car i noticed the black cars tires screetch from the car which following me, and tons of photographers with microphones had jumped out and surrounded me. Plenty of people where around me asking me questions, and screaming my name, camera's where flashing at me and it was a big shock. I believe I had become a star. In class teachers kept pulling me aside , and asking me questions about the song. I believe they were interveiwing me, so that way they can get paid for the questions i give them. This was so stressfull, and it was kind of getting on my nerves. The school bell had rung and on my way to the car they where still their following me and taking snaps and snaps of photo's of me. I finally arrived home and logged onto my facebook account , and say plenty of photo's tagged of me. I finally realized my friends, where involved aswell they must be helping out the paparazzi's. I had begun to cry, because now i was a star and cant live the original life they are all around me. I cant have peace photo's will be taken almost every day, and now they will follow me everywhere and look at every move. I do feel proud that i am a star, and off my accomplishments which ive achieved. I cannot complain since i choose to be a star, and now i deserve to suffer. The paprazzi's are doing their job as im doing mine.
