Off the Wall!

Hey there everyone. So its been awhile I know, and while some hope I will never write again it doesn't stop me. So Valentines Day was yesterday, and I received the sweetest letter from my Dad, and the nicest message from my brother, both of which made me cry. See I really hate Valentines Day, and no it isn't because I don't have someone to spend it with, but because I don't understand why girls and guys become so Goo-Goo over it. What I don't get is why only one day a year is a significant amount of love for one relationship. Please readers enlighten me on why you love or hate Valentines Day. Maybe I am coming from the wrong side of things so I would really like hear the opinions of others on the matter.
On a more serious matter, Egypt. So I have become interested in the happenings there, and have a few opinions. For one I am so pleased that the people of Egypt were able to get what they wanted, it goes to show how when working as a whole your voice, your strength, and your resistance grows. What I hated to see more than anything was our President backing the statements of Mubarak; I understand that Egypt is our ally and we need all the allies we can get, but supporting the views of a President who goes against every law that has been enacted is to me the wrong way. The people of Egypt were looking to America for help and guidance and the speaker of America ignored their wishes. I feel that if Obama was looking to keep an ally he should have been looking at the bigger picture, he new Mubarak would not be in power much longer and that someone new and someone the people wanted would come into power. Now the Egyptians might feel like that one time we were not behind them and their rights so now they wont be behind us. Now I am not the President or in government, but as a person, someone who could easily be in the same positions as those in Egypt, that would be how I would see things. By now President Obama may already be helping their government flourish and I hope that he is, I trust that he will make the right decisions, but I would love for those decisions not to backfire.
So a weird mix of topics today I understand, but my mind is often rambling from topic to topic. I hope to have some interesting and relatable topics for you guys soon. I want to stick with this blogging thing, it really helps me unwind. Well until then.
With love and respect
