I can see it now… a gigantic crusade of international peace brought on by one heated moment of passionate retribution from nasty comments about my favorite show:
PEOPLE ARE ALL HUMAN!!
I think that was sort of the point of Rich Girls. Ally and Jaime produced the show themselves, so right away that shows you that they are very dedicated in what they do. When I first saw a commercial for the show, I thought it was ridiculous… reality TV at its darkest hour. And then I happened to watch it one day. It’s become one of my favorite shows. It makes me happier just to watch it, even though I have nowhere near as much money as they do. I think it’s because people strive for money in America today. We all think if we could just be a little richer, we would be happier. Because of Rich Girls, we see that no matter how much money you have, we’re still just human: we have problems, we have faults, we have bad times… but we are still alive, we have many things to be thankful for, and we are all in charge of our own happiness. Ally and Jaime have repeatedly said they are thankful for what they have, and talk about wanting to help those less fortunate. Yes, maybe they plan more than they actually do, but haven’t you ever done that? Ally and Jaime are both beautiful in their own individual, spiritual ways. Every person has something that makes them beautiful. The fact that so many people would judge them based on looks alone, and even their attitudes sometimes, just makes me sad. I’m sure that those who would comment about them hatefully have never made a mistake or acted badly in their lives, especially at 18, when you’re just learning who you really are. People aren’t perfect. Just because they’re rich doesn’t mean they have to be perfectly physically beautiful!! Just another reason why I really like the show. And by the way, as far as people go, I think Ally and Jaime are both very pretty.
Ally has an innocence and awe about life that is really refreshing, and Jaime’s range of emotions and how deeply she feels them are probably going to make her a great writer.
And as for their parents and what they were born into: did you get to pick and choose your life and your parents? Obviously not. Nobody does. So being prejudiced against them because they’re rich is unfair.
I know this sounds really corny and touchy-feely, but I just can’t understand why people have so much hate for each other… I just can’t even fathom why people can’t just accept each other for who they are.
I think the girls did a great job on the show. It got ME one step closer to realizing my own happiness, maybe if you open your eyes and give it a chance it can do the same for you.

Read said nasty comments here.
I think this is going to spawn a fansite.
I am ITCHING again. The vile disease “my-layout-is-not-good-enough-i-must-change-it” has struck once more. Except, I am really really tired. I worked all day today, and have spent the last hour looking at crap on the internet. But I must change. I constantly want my website to reflect who I am on the inside, and I don’t feel it ever measures up. I think I need more content. I just always get hung up on the design part. I think because all the HTML and tables and layering are a lot less confusing than writing about myself.
