Purchasing all of these items in a package will cost me roughly $50.00. I personally think $50 is just too much to spend on school supplies, so I’m going to try and get them cheaper this weekend when they have the big sales. I know that the Office Depot near my house sells the crayons he needs for like a nickel this weekend, and they sell the rulers for a penny. So, I’m thinking I can probably buy all the stuff separately for a cheaper deal. I’m hoping anyway. If I can’t find some of his stuff, I’ll end up buying the package, so wish me luck!

It seems my last post offended some people. I got a couple of pissed off comments and emails. Well, I did not write it with the intention to offend or piss anyone off. And no, I wasn’t attacking China. If those of you who got pissed off would actually take the time to read what I said, which I have re-read it a few times, you would be able to see that I was merely stating that I was bothered by the fact that they basically told a 7 year old girl that she was not pretty enough. I’m sorry, but that’s screwed up, no matter what the circumstances. As far as what one of my commenters said about America being the same way, I will have to disagree. Beauty Pageants can’t be compared to “Oh sorry honey, your voice is nice but you are ugly so you can’t be seen at the Olympics. Instead we’ve found a pretty girl to move her mouth while you sing.” In America, there would be lawsuits, protests, and straight up outrage if something like that happened. I seriously doubt anything like that would be allowed here. Furthermore, this is my blog, I can state my opinions and feelings as much as I want, and again, I didn’t intend to offend. I am sickened by the message that the Chinese government or whoever is responsible for what happened is sending to children all over China and the rest of the world. It’s disgusting, and if you are too blind, proud, or jaded to see that.. well that’s your problem.
