you know, i really think its screwed up how minorites get preferential treatment when it comes to college admissions. it kind sucks that i am white, and i cannot take advantage of that kind of thing. in fact, since i am middle class, i have a harder time getting my hands on financial aid as well, so i have decided that i will become a mexican. i mean, i am not of hispanic decent, but whatever, i mean, ive been to mexico, and my brother liver there... shouldnt i be entitled to the same rights as the mexicans? i mean that doesnt seem fair does it? whats that? im not mexican you say? so what. whos to decide what makes a mexican? history and geneology? pfft. what a load of crap. i think that we need to re examine the definition of race and where exactly it came from. after all, i live in california, and that used to be mexico, so shouldnt i be entitled to something? maybe the courts can decide if i can change the definition of my ethnicity. i should have equal access to being a mexican as anyone else in this country shouldnt i? after all, whos it going to hurt if i change my ethnic classification? or maybe ill be african. that seems like a good idea... i mean, sure, i have never put up with racial prejudice like a lot of black people have, but hell, whos to decide what makes someone black or not? who is to classify or define what race im from? no one. thats who. if i mean, i guess if i really wanted to, i could go through all the hassel it would take to make sure that i had access to all the preferential treatment that they get in university admissions, but why? thats awefully close minded and bigitous for them to make me do all that. after all, so many of them dont even go to college... they ignore the value of the college education that they might be able to get at a lower price... so obviously the entire idea and institution behind it is worthless, and not worth bothering over.
look, the thing is this: im sick of being an asian/cacasian mix. i will hereby, henceforth be a mexican, with all the privilages thereby associated. i will also now be black. i will go to grambling university in the fall, becase, after all, who are they to define whats black?
Mercy's eyes are blue
When she places them in front of you
Nothing holds a roman candle to
The solemn warmth you feel inside
