IMP Note:
I won’t post any messages I get about things people want to get off their chest.
I can respond to them and post them only if you note that you want a response.
eastofidaho asked: Current: Kings of Leon, Bon Iver, The Knife.. From the Past: The Smiths, Joy Division, Guns N' Roses... It's so much harder for me to choose these instead of individual artists.
ugh 30 minutes on the treadmill 215 calories burned
I should have done an hour since I’ve been sitting around making notes & studying all day
today = slacking on exercise day
tomorrow = all day studying again
Hard Truths: Minority Scholarships
moobar4lyfe:
Excerpt from this post:
White Men are the new minority. They can’t get scholarships for school because of the colored and lady folk. Except, that’s not true. Not even a little bit. […]
Well, I have the numbers for the Nationwide study. I’ll admit it, these are the numbers that dance in my head when I hear “White people/white men are the new minorities.” Ready? Here we go…

One thing that I'm definitely disappointed in with...
badlandspolaroid:
It’s probably different when it comes to different reservations, or different when it comes to different people (obviously), but it really really REALLY breaks my heart when Native people have a problem with LGBT people, or gay marriage, or gay rights, or gay sex, WHATEVER it is, it breaks my heart.
It wasn’t until the church came around that all of a sudden gay people were...
Just my thoughts.
stupidityannoysmesobad:
So I saw this photo, it’s from the model Rachel Dashae. I agree with what was written over her on the below photo.
But then I was thinking… hey? She’s mad right? That’s horrible someone did that, because she says she’s Native American too so she can pretty much do whatever the hell she wants right?
This above photo is promoting stereotypes, a feather? “war paint” …...

Put your top three bands in my ask and I'll rate...

digatisdi replied to your photo: My dog is very possessive Even if no one is…
My cat likes to grab my butt when I’m walking. That’s not remotely the same thing but I thought I’d share.
yeah my dog is a jerk
when I take him for a walk he wraps his paw around my leg and tries to trip me
he can make me wipe out pretty bad too
now back to pretty pictures & things I enjoy

Personally, I don’t have a problem with designers seeing Native designs, adapting them, and putting them on clothes. If they are inspired by(read: not just copying exactly/stealing, but allowing the original design(s) to...
I just figured out my topic for my Canadian...
Why did it take me this long?
This should not be hard at all. I just need to find 10 sources on the subject.
Thankfully I’m making it broad so I can easily find more sources!
I’m pretty proud of myself right now.
Workout and then do this bibliography. That means I’ll have extra time to study.
I feel like ranting all day
I always see commercials for diet groups, weight loss pills, weight loss plans, etc
I don’t like any of these things. I’m a firm believer of teaching yourself how to eat healthy and exercise as opposed to utilizing some pre-made packages or pre-made food.
Yes, the weight loss and progress may take longer to become visible but in the long run you’re teaching yourself good...
trying to go back to making this more about...
getting tired of a lot of stuff on tumblr
so I’m gonna try and post more pretty things or things that interest me
it’s ok if I lose followers…not everyone has to like the same things as me :-)
Keeping Lakota Alive →
On a recent Tuesday, 5-year-old Jessie White Face hid her hands shyly in the pockets of her pink jumper as she and 14 classmates recited “The Itsy Bitsy Spider” - in Lakota

2nd? 3rd?
I think second
but my family is close to that family so it seems like it’s a lot closer than that….if that makes sense
yep

….And this is why I will never date a Native boy who is part of my tribe.
this is also why I don’t usually date Mohawk or Mi’kmaq men
it’s good that I’m mixed with both because it means I have a lower chance of being related to new guys I meet but it’s still a concern for me
I’m more scared to date...
lmao awkward
so I just found out not long ago that a guy from one of my “reserves” (not gonna say which one because you never know who may see my blog) who I thought just wanted to be friends/hang out
had the biggest crush on me/really wanted to date me
& we’re actually cousins - I mean not first cousins but apparently we’re pretty closely related
I think he may still have a...
Anonymous asked: How often do you masturbate?
I don’t know how to copy and paste on this thing lol
We don’t have a gas stove - like I said it’s all electronic devices. We have a long house so the heat is unevenly distributed most of the time. Having my corner room actually pays off at times like this. We may have a small propane stove but I’d have to search the entire house and there’s no guarantee that we have...
Well I adapted way too quickly to southern/urban...
the power went out about 15 minutes ago and I put on some candles and fixed some things
then what do I do?
See I could take the time to read or finish studying or maybe do something creative
but nope…instead I search for my mother’s iPad and begin surfing the Internet
This is a sad moment for me. I wish we had a wood stove here.. I’m already getting cold and I don’t...
montrealmighteatitsyoung replied to your post: seriously it’s not that difficult to pronounce
what are the syllable stresses?
we use the accents above the letter as stressors
the same accents you often see in French
when there is a : it usually indicates a long vowell
´ above a letter is a rising tone
and ˋ is a falling tone
here’s an example of how to pronounce words...
