Sophia on politics, sports, and life











{November 20, 2008}   Same-sex marriage

What’s the big deal? Inter-racial marriage, inter-religion marriage, whatever. Still stands that 1/3 marriages end in divorce. Regardless of sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, age, political view, social class… marriages are going to have problems. I say, if they want to get married… let them!

“The saintity of marriage” was demolished when they created drive-thru wedding chapels in Vegas! Look at all the celebrities that get hitched just to create publicity or drunks that get married to complete strangers… atleast same-sex couples are getting married for LOVE.

Seriously, what is banning marriage going to do? It may stop them from being legally married, but they are still going to be together! It will NOT stop people from being gay/lesbian! I don’t understand why people are so against it. IT IS NOT GOING TO AFFECT YOU!



{November 20, 2008}   Young Warriors 2009!

It was iffy starting the season without Monte, and with all the changes in the roster during the off season. Most people were writing off the Warriors this season. I have to admit, I did too.

But here we are…. 5-6. Not too shabby. All I can say is… MORROW! I know all Warrior fans are saying it too. This guy is really something. UNDRAFTED rookie? He’s showing all star numbers and MVP charisma- backed by solid performances from Biedrins, Jackson, Maguette, and Azuibuikke. Not to mention: Turiaf, Randolph, Wright, Watson, Nelson, Harrington, and others sitting on the bench waiting for some action.

Ellis is scheduled to be returning soon. This team is astonishing. Underdogs once again! A bunch of rookies and other new kids. I am excited watching these young guys! I see a bright future for the Warriors under Don Nelson’s wing!



{November 20, 2008}   Inspiration

I recent read A Letter to my Daughter by Maya Angelou. It was an astonishing read! Maya Angelou takes her life experiences to provide lessons and advice. It’s a very inspirational book, her life is amazing. I can not compare my life to hers, but I too have experienced a lot. What if I wrote a book similarly? Not an autobiography, but a mix of memoir and advise. More of anything, a compilation of lessons I have learned… the hard way. Hmm… something I shall think about.
