    I"m sure that all of you have had to see some form of AIDS video at your school, and I just saw mine yesterday. The video itself was very touching and scary, (about a family of three with AIDS) but that's not the saddest part for me.......
    What got me is that I was talking about it to my parents at dinner, and my mom decides to use it as a chance to work in another "gay away" talk. When I tell her that the father and the son in the movie both died, she looked right at me, gave me this nasty look, and said, "Yeah, AIDS is a scary disease. Isn't it?"
    And that just pissed me off sooooo bad!!! UGH!
    God, I just needed to vent about that.......

    Haha! I loved that!
    What I said is that the GIRL got from a GUY. Cuz the video said that I think.......she didn't talk much after that.
