Being a Pennsylvania resident over the age of eighteen, I could have voted in Tuesday’s primary.  However, there seemed to be little point in doing so.  The evening before the primary, I began flipping through the voters guide.  A few minutes of reading showed me that in my district there was virtually no one to vote for.  Besides the lack of people up for election in my district, I am registered as a Republican.  I mean who am I going to vote for?  McCain was really the only option; well him or Ron Paul.  Personally, I know very little about where McCain stands on any issues, and from what I have seen, Ron Paul would not make a good president.

I guess what I am saying, is that it would have been a waste of time for me to vote.  Not only because I have no choices, but because I do not know about McCain’s stance on politics.  I feel that this years election is going to be less of a race between Democrats and Republicans, and more of a race between Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton.  I don’t know that either one of them will pull out of the race when the Democrats give a nomination.  We will have to wait and see.

In the mean time, look at this:

I just had a really strong urge to play Pokemon.  Not these new crappy versions but one of the original versions, like Blue or Red.  Personally, I would choose to play Blue only because I had it originally and can no longer find it.  I would even go as far as to play Silver because not only did it have the Blue world it also had the new areas and they combined it.  They were really thinking with their brains, minds, and heads, when they put the two worlds together?  I mean have we seen another Pokemon game that lets you get 16 badges?  When ever they open up a new area, I don’t even know what they are called like Jhoto? or something, they should make the games bigger.  Expand it to 24 gym badges in the entire game.

Anyway, I just want to be able to send out my Vaporeon and ice beam some Dragonaires.  Or use surf to find Missing No. and get 100 rare candies or something.  I mean common, it was a really good game for the time and revolutionized how we thought about RPG’s.  I think a lot can be learned from Pokemon.  How to manage money, how to be responsible, how to work with other people by doing quests, how to follow directions, and how to go online and read about that part you could never beat.

Anyway, I wasted hundreds of hours of my life on Pokemon and don’t regret it.  I just wish they were real, and that I could make money traveling around and having battles.  Who wouldn’t want Pokemon to be real?  And don’t say ‘me, because I’m a girl,’  girls like Pokemon too.  Get over yourself.
