one of the boys

i haven't written in a while. when i'm not at work [30 hrs a week] or at school [22 hrs a week], i'm too exhausted. i have a list of 22 things i want to write about when i get a moment but i decided to write a little now while i have the time.

something bothered me yesterday. i heard two women talking about their sons and bar mitzvahs, and how their daughters wanted bat mitzvahs, but weren't allowed to have them. because "mitzvahs are for boys." now, although i adore what i DO know of the jewish religion, i don't claim to know everything about it. so i DONT know what the general consensus is on this. but i think that girls should be able to have a coming of age party too. [and i know, i know, there is a such thing as a sweet sixteen, but thats not the same thing.] i don't know, i just think that little girls need to be told they are just as wonderful as little boys. and vice versa. if you let one kid have the mitzvah, why not the next?

idk. just running my mouth. on another note, it's almost summer!! school's almost out, and then i'll have more time to blog and read in between watching my brothers and working.
and beyonce has a new video out! which i like. a lot. and i've fallen in love with this blog. and i am reading this book.

well, i hope you have a good night :)
love&peace.
