Self
It’s weird for me to think about myself. When I do it’s different to define who I am based only myself and how I am defined by others. I don’t mean the labels we have like Chicana or Latina but things much simpler than that. It’s the difference that arises when I pass people on the ucsd campus, home home, or across the state. I wave to a passerby and smile and sometimes...

“If Sarah Palin were black, her daughter’s out of wedlock, “baby daddy drama”...”
– If Sarah Palin Were Black (via azspot)
Just goes to show how far Palin’s whiteness can take her. Zero intellect, two high school drop-outs, an unwed teen mother, a quitter of the one major job she had. Master of hateful coded language targeting opponents as not “real Americans”. Belongs to a church...

Entitlement....
It has become such an apparent problem in the community. :/
People are looking at admin and wanting everything handed to them, empowerment is one thing, entitlement is another entirely. Being here is a privilege, being part of a movement is a privilege, remember all the other people who want what you have? Stop demanding everything, pull your resources, get your ish together before you start...

Why.
I think I have answered my question from Winter Break :) <3
Because there is no cross cultural support for the intersecionality of identiy for Deaf students of Color.
Because growing up I was shaped by my teachers in the public school system.
Because in gaining mentors in science educators who looked like me made me want to make a difference in student’s lives.
Because being accepted...
Saw this today.
It seems like the message Leslie Manjarrez sent out to SAAC caused some trouble didn’t it?
The irony of it all is she says she cares for Native students… ultimately though it just makes her look bad.
I wonder who controls this. And I wonder how it makes me look bad? I wrote a response email, to which they didn’t answer either.
Interesting…because I still hang out at...

So I had an interesting conversation with my best friends from back home home.
We got on the topic of politics and voting and the lame duck session and one of my friends stated “I’m just going to play devil’s advocate, I’m not really involved in politics, I don’t vote”. To which my other friend and I began to question “Why?” “Issues affect...

Dear House Republicans:
For this kind of scratch I will recite the constitution every day for a year and broadcast the video live on humptheframers.com.

But we must cut government spending! We’re in a recession! Austerity!
That number is an estimate and includes costs like “heating the Capitol...
Um yea.
I am slowly realizing that others are looking at the tangled web you’ve weaved and wondering…just as I was.
Yea I think I accepted the fact that I was both at fault but mostly right in what happened last quarter…but I get little hints every day that I am, in fact, not totally wrong about my impression of a certain person.
I have sat down and questioned myself and my idea of...
Ugh
Day two and its already getting messy, HAMmy, complicated and overwhelming. :P
All I can hope is that loose ends get tied up, I can move forward, and I can make it through the next couple of weeks. Once intertia has gained momentum, it cannot be stopped, just pushed in another direction.
I intend to do 4 things this quarter.
1)Get incompletes taken care of.
2) Pass these damn classes(because...
