Holy [expletive] I thought that was the teachers salaries per year, not the tuition.

I mean, the subject is fight songs, right? Fight Songs is a great Old 97s album.

Sooo, rich white girls are not allowed to have dreams?

What about lower middle class white girls, I need to know if I need to tell my girls to just pack it in now, or if they can have dreams and work for them, even if they are not world changing?

I agree the song is crap, but to her, it was still a challenge put in front of her that she didn't give up. It may seem trite and not as important as other trials people need to go through, but it was real to her.

Is the song people don't like?

Seems like a normal song, no?

That is what is so funny to me, she didn't ask to be born white. She simply wrote about something she knew about. Should we hate her because she didn't have to go through some tragedy? Should we hate her because she didn't have as much adversity to "fight" through? Again, I think the song is stupid and not very good either.

If my daughter works her ass off and becomes the Doctor she wants to become, is it something she should be hated for since she is white and the road must have been easier for her because she is white?

I don't know, it just seems like personal achievement and hard work is no longer appreciated.
