"Important" things- My views

Hi again...

I don't know why, but as I get older, I get questioned a lot about my views on what is considered "important". It could be my dad asking me something, it could be a teacher, whoever. I find that I am awful at trying to explain myself face-to-face, so I've decided to write my thoughts here. Say whatever you want- as my cousin once told me, opinions are like arseholes, everybody has one.

"What do you believe in- Science or Religion?" Okay, honestly? I wasn't there when it happened, so unless you   give me solid proof, I don't care. I'm far more interested in poor Roxy Mitchell coping with her love for Alfie on Eastenders. Far more interesting and less complicated. We all got here somehow- agreed? Right, then that's all I care about. What I don't like about religion is people shoving their religion down my throat. Piss off I don't want to join you and you can't change my mind, shut up. Yes, it's okay to be proud of your religion and to have your own beliefs, but trying to make people follow the same as you, just no. Shut up and keep waking. And same for Science. My science teacher did his best to try and convince us that Science is right. I couldn't care less, just give me the answers so I can study and get this test over with. It's okay to not believe in either and to not know. Why should you have to pick a side? It's perfectly fine to be in the "unknown" or "other" category. Don't ask me to join a side, because I won't. Not unless something big enough to prove it is discovered.

"Who are you rooting for in the elections?" Dude, I'm a sixteen year old girl who idolizes Mickey Mouse. Come on, really? I know I'm turning into a young adult, but I haven't got the foggiest idea with politics except the fact that our prime minister has a shiny forehead and Obama can sing pretty well. I haven't got a clue, so therefore, I believe I shouldn't vote. Nor will I follow the crowd. Maybe when I'm older, I may take an interest in all the politics and everything, but right now, no, no thanks. I do believe in the "voting at 16" though as there are some really mature young people out there who wish to go into politics. Just only let it open for young people who are generally interested in the elections. Today I was at the Taste of Tonyrefail and Labor were there promoting themselves. My friend got leaflets and everything and the bloke on the stand was like "I know you want a free balloon" and I said "you know me too well." Once I was given the balloon my friend said "so, you're rooting for Labor?" I replied "No, I wanted a free balloon and a free balloon is what I got." He facepalmed. Just because I had a balloon with "Labor" written on it, doesn't mean I support them. It means I was offered a free balloon and I wanted it, despite being 16. So, giving out freebies won't make me want to vote, it will make me want the freebee.

"When do you plan to move out and start your life?" Seriously? I mean I barely know what I want to do this weekend, never mind what I want to do with regards to moving out and all that. I'm only a kid/teen/whatever. I don't know what will happen in the future. I may meet a nice bloke, I might not. I might stay and live with my mother I might not. I'm taking things like that one day at a time. I haven't even finished my GCSE's yet, calm down. Geez.

I was going to discuss more but I'm getting bored now and my attention span isn't long enough for me to do so.

Naiiiite. x
