Girl Scouts

To be honest, I have no idea how it conditions them to act in certain ways. I could only think of three ways and I hope one of them is right. The first is that it conditions them to have a reverse role and bring in money for their organization, which is different than the man bringing home the money in a house. The second is that it teaches them to be personable and open, but that sounds like a good thing, so my third idea is that it teaches them to be too open with people and to want people to buy their stuff as a sick and twisted idea of being accepted. Something like when someone buys their cookies, they feel accepted. No cookies; no one accepts them. They will do anything to get people to buy their cookies, which (I may be reading way too deep into this) trains them to be willing to do anything to be accepted and feel wanted. I have no idea if that's right, but that's where my words took me.

Deconstruction!!!

So I was talking to Steven, the guitarist I play with at church, and he said that he absolutely loved thie one guitar he played at work. (He works at Mills Music) So I asked him what love really is if you could say it about a woman and a guitar. And he said that it was an emotion. What's an emotion? A feeling. What's a feeling? Something that makes you cry or laugh. What is crying? That's as far as we got before he told me to shut up. When I told him about the assignment he told me that it kind of makes sense. His creative writing professor told him that the words don't matter as much as the emotion you can create with them. I think it's a weird statement, but kind of true.
