Rachel the Riveter

Ask me anything   Hi I am Rachel, I am 22 years old, in love with the 1940s, vintage items, movies, my bunny, make up and art.

"When I say, “I love you,” it’s not because I want you or because I can’t have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I’ve seen your kindness and your strength. I’ve seen the best and the worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You’re a hell of a woman."
Joss Whedon (via blitzwriter24)

Lowness

 Now why is it that we get stuck being the person everyone seems to think they know? Personally no one will ever know you UNLESS they live with you. I know that sounds bad but it is the honest truth. My family knows me, my room-mate ( past room-mates) and probably even boyfriends would know more about you than anyone around you. Now here is the question once again: Why do we get stuck being that person? 

Let’s say you do nothing wrong and are friendly but yet people dislike you for no reason. Do you let it get to you? Of course not. Do you share it to the people you care most about? Yes.Though you put that cheerful face on for everyone else on the inside you wonder…Am I really that person who everyone can’t stand? That everyone wishes they would just leave. Maybe it is not true for everyone in that situation but when you feel like the outcast and nothing you can say or do will ever help. You wonder if maybe it is you. Though in the back of your mind it is not. So why do we put so much pressure on ourselves to care about them? What do they have to show for themselves? They are immature, they do not know you, obviously never talk to you fully but YET we make ourselves feel like we are worth nothing. When we have people that think we are worth something.  Why let a person determine your worth? Who cares about them! You may never see them again. YET society and your brain make you want to please everyone. The person you are needs to smile, look presentable, take it but say you did stand up for yourself…would they think you are even more crazy or would they pick on you more. They dislike you no matter what you say or do. The adult way out is to call them out politely and show that it does not bother you. 

Now that is the key. Be that strong person that you were made to be. How your friends and family bring it out. DO NOT ever let the lowness of them get to you. After all they may think saying things about you are true but they are the people who never will know you. They just make themselves look bad.

My 21st Birthday is Today

I was born at 1:10 am 21 years ago. 

With my life I have learned so much from my family. I love being the person who I am who I will become. I feel kind of nervous for all the changes that happen with each birthday. We all have obstacles and stages we go through at each age.

I know I need to be positive but it gets hard because time moves so quickly. At least I know I will be okay..I have my family and friends. They will always be there so I know maybe it is not so bad as I think. After all age is just a number and my youth will carry on. :)

This woman has no voice

Michele Bacmann has no back bone since she only does things when her husband tells her to. Now we wonder who really is running for president?! Hmm… I guess our woman rights left her family a long time ago and is going back into time when we had no voice. What a vicious, nutty , idiotic woman.

Here comes another Sarah Palin…
