First, I want to start by saying that I think Freya Johnson, the writer of "Holy Homosexuality Batman: Camp and Corporate Capitalism in Batman Forever" is GAY!! I mean, how can you perceive Batman coming out of the bathroom shirtless and with a towel around his waist while Robin's in the room as homosexual? In my opinion, only a gay person would look at something that way because, well, they're GAY!!
I just think that sometimes people read too much into little things and try to turn them ino something that they're not. We talked about how all superheroes are looked upon as homosexual or as having queer tendencies, but why? Because they wear tights, have a secret, and have a partner that watches their back?
Occasionally, I can be accused of not looking deeply enough into things, but I don't think that's the case here!! In my opinion, only a person who looks for homosexuality in normal things would assume that Batman is GAY!! I'm 100% positive that the little kid at home watching Bruce Wayne talk to Robin with his shirt off wouldn't think, "Oh my God, is Batman gay?" I don't care whether they're my kids, or Rosie O'Donnel's kids!!
Being COMPLETELY honest, I think this essay was INCREDIBLY LAME!!

"College Hill 4" 5
Honestly, I thought this week's episode was kinda boring. The house still had a positive vibe, and everyone was still getting along for the most part, but it wouldn't last long. Surprisingly, Krystal, who's probably the most HATED roommate in College Hill history, cooked a big dinner for everyone in an attempt to make amends!! Of course, everyone was shocked seeing how she's always voicing how much she hates them and wants to go home!! Then again, it wasn't REALLY her idea!!
After the church service seemingly brought the roommates closer, Krystal decided to take the advice she'd received from a friend back home. He told her that she should take advantage of the time she has on the island, and try to make the best of it instead of fighting with everyone!! So, she took his advice, and her peace offering looked as if it had brought her closer to everyone, but it hadn't!!
Vanessa, who probably detests Krystal the MOST, still had a LOT of animosity for her inside. It seemed like right after everyone had eaten and bonded, Krystal went right back to voicing her displeasure for the island and the culture. So Vanessa, who didn't want to start a big fight, decided that she would write a poem expressing her feelings toward Krystal instead. Afterwards, she read it to Willie, who thought she was crazy for the malicious things she was saying; and after JT read it, they decided that she should put it to music!!But once Vanessa started rapping, Krystal overheard her!! Obviously her feelings were hurt, but Krystal decided to wait to confront Vanessa about her "childish" behavior.
Other than that, nothing really exciting happened. They did go see Chicky play softball however, and got to see first-hand how athletic he really was!!! He continued to beat Willie in pool too, solidifying his greatness in any and everything sports related!! Oh, and JT FINALLY broke up with his "girlfriend" back home. It seemed like he was looking for a reason to call it quits, and he found one when she got an attitude one day and hung up on him!! But that wasn't really a big deal, because EVERYBODY could see it coming. But, on the next epsiode, the preview revealed that AT LEAST 2 people in the house get into a physical fight where blood is shed!! So, to say that I can't wait would be an understatement!!

Will it EVER end?
Well, since we don't have to write about the readings this week, I decided that I would talk about how I'm feeling write now when it comes to school. Now, I know that going to college will help me down the road, but, honestly, I'm SO sick of school right now, that summer break couldn't possibly get here fast enough!!
Although I'm only taking 3 classes right now, it seems like ALL of my time is tied up into something!! I mean, I have class Monday-Friday, and I also have to work Monday-Friday, so rarely do I have time to chill!! And you can't really count the weekends; it seems like Saturday and Sunday go by SO quickly, that it's almost like I never left on Friday!! Sometimes, I wish I could go back to how it was my senior year in high school. I went to school everyday for 6 hours and had football practice afterwards, but I didn't really do ANYTHING until practice!! I mean, I was in school, but you know how it is when you're a senior: you just kick it all day!!
It just doesn't seem to wanna get any easier!! I JUST had a LONG research paper to do for my American Government class, and now, what do I have to do for english? An even LONGER research paper on which I have NO clue where to begin!! Lucky me, I guess; but I'm still holding on to the thought that it'll all pay off in the long run!! Hopefully I'm right, though. But I still can't wait 'til my classes get out!! Matter fact, when does this class end? Cause I don't know how much more I can take.................

"College Hill 4" 4
I must say, this week's episode was a little bit better!! Thankfully, we weren't forced to watch yet ANOTHER consecutive episode about Krystal and her annoying personality!! But there was still plenty of emotion in the house to go around, but this time, it came out in a "good" way!!
This week's episode mainly focused on Willie, in the beginning, and his non-stop flirting with nearly every girl in the house!! Originally, his plan from day one was to hook-up with Vanessa, and I can't say that I blame him, because she's arguably the baddest chick on the show!! But, unfortunately, Vanessa has a boyfriend that she's been with for three years, and it didn't look like she was havin it!! So, Willie decided that he would try his luck with Krystal. Now, personally, I can only think of two reasons why he would try to holla at KRYSTAL of all people: 1.) he's EXTREMELY horny and needs to let it out, or 2.) he actually likes girls that weigh 100 pounds soakin wet, who complain about EVERYTHING, and can be annoying as HELL!! The answer is obvious, and that's understandable because all males sometimes lower their standards because of their hormones!! Not that I care, but Krystal seemed to like the attention that Willie was giving her, and I got the feeling that something might happen between the two of them before the season ends!!
But anyway, all of sudden, the show got emotional when Vanessa, Fallon, Willie, and Idesha decided that the house should have church!! It all started when they were sitting around singing Father Abraham, and Vanessa said they should have a service with JT acting as the pastor.What started off as a joke, ended up getting really serious!! Everyone got together in the living room, minus Chicky who was out of town, and began testifying about the hard times they'd been through in their lives. Idesha even started to cry when it was her turn, and she started to talk about how she's had to fend for herself since she was 12 yrs. old!!
In the end, everyone had gained a better understanding about where each roommate was coming from. They were able to learn more about each other that would help them move past the segregation in the house that was holding them back!! Finally, something positive had went on in the house, but I don't expect it to last long!! On the next episode, they'll probably be right back to fighting with each other, but it was good to see everyone get along for once!!
