yeah today was boring. really boring. i'm not gonna talk about my day 'cause all i did was go online, talk to toni on the hone, and watch tv all day and night. wait, i just spoke about my day didn't I? anyway, i saw the oscars last night and as i expected halle berry won the best actress award. her peformance in monster's ball was easily the best of last year and she deservedly won the award last night. and i also thought that her acceptance speech was wonderful and not the slightest bit on the long side. i don't think there was anyone watching that didn't feel the emotion that she felt for those 4 and a half minutes. i'm glad that she and denzel washington ( who won for training day ) won the top honors last night. but i do hope that we can get to a day when people don't have to say "finally they're deciding to spread the love". all of these awards show should be color blind, and they shouldn't favor those with fair skin. it's a sad thing that sidney poitier had been the only african-american man to have won the best actor award, when there have been many standouts in the last 38 years, but at least now he's got some company with denzel. halle, for now at least, is the only african-american female to win best actress. both of these actors have really swung the door open for other people that receive the roles of mammies, butlers, chauffeurs, and prostitues. now they have inspired many people, of many races to believe that they can achieve anything that they sent their hearts to. so yeah, i'm so happy for both of them. well, that's all of my ranting for today. g'night kids.
