First before I get to that stupid dump on my whole childhood, there is some personal news in my life that I would just like to share. I got to speak as an Alumni at a People To People Ambassador conference. Last summer I had the lucky opportunity to be able to go to China and it was a wonderful experience that led me to get interested in international relations and the quest for world peace. World peace of course in a genuine way, and not in the corny obvious teen pageant way. I got to meet new people and enjoy the company of much younger children who were able to give me an insight to the way they live, all of which I have very thankful to have experienced. So today I spoke to new people who might be interested in taking a trip with People to People and unfortunately I had to sit through their video about where they're going and it made me very sad, because once you're 18 you can't go on anymore trips and they are going to Europe and it makes me jealous. But overall I really liked talking to them and explaining how the experience caused me to make a completely different career choice. Do you guys have any situations like that? Where something really important that came out of something that you didn't think would have that big of an effect?
Anyway back to what a lot of people are talking about, the zodiac. Like the time we learned that Pluto wasn't really a planet and "my very educated mother just served us nine pizzas" suddenly means nothing and you have to change nine to nuggets for it to mean any sense. Well just like I didn't like that I don't like this either.

that's a link if you'd like to see an article about it, but let's talk about this a little. First of all I think that adding this constellation now is pretty stupid because apparently it's been around for years. Personally the part that I don't like is that now everyone is all switched around.

there are a few things that annoy me about this, the main one being that it doesn't make any sense that Scorpio is only 7 days long, that's a little odd. I also don't think that anyone not born in 2011 will use this new system. People get used in their ways and anyone who's been using the new system isn't likely to switch over anytime soon. Another thing is that I've always felt that Gemini described me better and I liked my horoscope so I'm keeping it. In the end it doesn't matter that much because I never really followed those things anyway.
