It’s Saturday the 18th and we’re about two days until school starts again for me and I’m excited for school to start because I can find myself learning something new again this quarter. This quarter I’m taking Women’s studies, Psychology of gender, and a speech class that deals with arguments. My registration date was pretty late this year so I couldn’t really take the classes I wanted to take so I found these classes because they interested me. For the longest time now, actually ever since high school ended, I’ve had this fascination with how different genders think about certain issues. Guys may feel it’s ok to have a beer and watch the Monday nighter while the wife complains that the husbands never do anything to give them attention while watching football on a monday night. The truth is, I want to know what women think and why it is the way it is. For example, a friend of mine at work, whose name is Valerie, is a Psych graduate from San Jose state and she is so observant that I can see that her and I almost think alike. Yesterday at the Big Red Machine, Val and I were working away on yogurt yet two of our other co-workers, Ashley and Rooshda, were kind of acting like two high school girls. The question I had for Val is why is it different with girls yet with guys it’s ok to do so. Me and JB are connected at work already as being “BFF’s” yet rather than us getting critiqued for it we are already known as doing so and nobody gets upset about it. But with Ashley and Rooshda, it seems as if it’s more like a Beautiful people type routine. If you don’t know who the Beautiful people are, it used to be a stable in wrestling consisting of characters whose names are Velvet Sky and Angelina Love. This stable had them doing one of those gimmicks where they were prettier than everybody and nobody could stand in there way. In wrestling, it’s damn amusing to see that happening yet when you see it in person it’s almost sad because one of the two people in this little joined at the hip connection is actually a good to decent person. I’m referring to Ashley of course because she is a good person yet I think she is manipulated too much by certain people in her life. I know that I have no right to say so but that’s what it seems like because she considers herself a follower and not a leader. Being in classes like this will allow me to enhance my view of why and how women and men act differently and think the way they do. I must say also that taking Alex Kramer for speech again should be entertaining because I have taken a class with him before and he always makes it so that the class doesn’t seem repetitive and boring so that should be fun and exciting. All I gotta say is that the good times are rolling right now and we got some football on the horizon tomorrow so we’ll see what happens till then.
