“Life is something that happens when you can't get to sleep,” Fran Lebowitz.

"I spend my money on all these things. But I'd rather spend my time with you day and night, there'd be no price to hide to have you by my side," $pend My Money by Bass Kleph. Go listen!
"No matter how hard you hug your money, it never hugs back," P.S. I Love You 

What's your price? apparently everyone has one

Lunches are anything but boring when I go with my friend Erik. Today's lunch was no exception. After greeting me and my friend Tank with a string of profanities that I won't subject you to we sat down and started eating. In the middle of our perfectly appropriate conversation he asks us if we would strip for 50,000 dollars. After my initial shock is subsided we get to the details. It turns out that for 50,000 we both decided we would take it off. Actually writing this makes me feel quite disappointed in myself, but it's true. Hey thats one years tuition as SCU. And so this is why I'm thinking about this conversation while per usual sleep evades me. If I would do something that I am completely morally objective to and find completely degrading is there anything that people won't do for the right price? For the most part, no.The die hard romantic in me wants to say that love makes the world go round but in reality it seems that money is the controlling factor. What other substance, idea or feeling has the power to get people to do anything you want. I would say the majority of the fights with my parents are regarding money. It makes me sick that I let something so superficial to get in the way of my relationship with my family. This subject is starting to get depressing so I end it with promising to spend more love instead of money and try to sleep. Goodnight xoxo
