Unemployed actress Michelle Rodriguez just posted this meandering rant on her official website.
She's crazy….but in a kinda smart way!
"August 6 , 2007
I am incredibly grateful for the support of such cool people, especially for the outstretched hands of love towards animals. I feel the day we turn our backs on nature and it's wild life is truly the day we decide we don't love anymore, hopefully I won't live to see this awful cyber robotic mentality hell of a cold lifeless generation. I love the fact that you guys are down to care for animals like that. It's so hot to know the love is out there. I can't wait to start writing my child animal movie project script for you guys. It's those souls that still have that childlike purity that I want to reach out to and entertain, especially if it penetrates the minds of others seeking positive change. To see this kind of energy makes me feel I'm not alone, and it reminds me to imagine, create, and shape a path for story telling. I will not disappoint you, and I'm working hard to give myself the freedom I need to take off for a year and write, as I have wanted to for 13 years. I am about to embark on a journey with one of my favorite story tellers and mythology manifestors of all time. I wouldn't mind being this man's assistant, anything I could learn from him would make me so happy. I'm so not type to ass kiss, and I've never had a mentor in this business not anyone I respect as much. Case and point, I'm very happy right now, and I feel good about finally shedding my last pieces of dead skin, being born as a newly evolved creature and revealing to everyone who couldn't see before what I'm truly about. For the most part anyway. No veils, no masks. I'm talking about finally getting to that point where I am sitting on a chair talking to a great director, a team of great writers, kid actors, animal trainers, and awesome special effects teams. Making my dream of story telling come to life. Everything I do for the next three years will be leading towards that day…. I love you for your support and thank you for believing in me while most people labeled me and threw me in a corner. I need to know I'm not alone so I can remind you guys that you're not alone. Give and take I guess, yet it's more organic than that silly narcissistic saying. Thanks again guys. ONE.
Oh by the way my friend asked me a really interesting question about an email I wrote to her. She just left to go to Med School for like four years. So most of our conversations are digital conversations. You know how writing can sometimes give you this freedom to elaborate cause you have more time to think before you speak right? Well I wrote to her this elaborate email about school being a marriage to existence, I wasn't talking about Med School. Confused she asked me what I meant by 'the school of life existing to fulfill a void in soul.' I would like to share this perspective with you guys and possibly get some feed back on how you see it and view existence in retrospect. Just looking back at your lives do you kinda feel like the whole things a big school or what? Here is the response I wrote to my friend:
I don't think a human can exist in rapture or satisfaction simply existing on earth alone…. I think we have consciousness and curiosity for a reason. I really do think this place is a school for the soul or the neutral witness inside all of us. From My perspective its like The Human Body Vs. the DNA that commands its biological make up. Your body and its experiences may evolve and effect that DNA for your next of kin, whether you smoke, did a lot of drugs or lived a perfectly healthy life, your DNA most likely will evolve and be affected by this process of existence for generations to come. Infinitely evolving and moving on towards change. I feel the same goes for the MIND and The SOUL ( Or Witness of the mind). For me the mind is like the body and the soul like the DNA. if you sit there and do nothing under a tree like Buddha for 8 years of your life, you will be curious, and you will evolve by answering these curiosities, as long as your conscious, even sleeping, or have a breath of reason in you. whatever you do you will never leave school of life till death do you part. You're married to Life. The School of life. I know personally, If I hadn't this massive curiosity and awe about the world I would feel dead and purposeless. I think my soul is looking for something, hence the reference to school of life existing to fulfill the void of spirit. That void of spirit, to me is representative of the DNA's need to evolve, that need is = to the void of soul I speak of. Like an Infinite quest. I empathize and feel equal to everyone I encounter because I see that quest or yearning for fulfillment in the eyes of everyone I meet. If he or she didn't have some unfinished curiosity to fulfill I think people would just drop dead or become lifeless vegetables. Just a perspective snack to ponder.
My grammar sucks ass."

Heavenly
okay….. :S
Craziness….why are you up at 3:00 a.m blogging?
…1st? mkay…
9th bitches!
I swore I'd never do this but FIRST
right..
Perez who is this..and what did she do..?
Splendid?
IDEA NOBODY HAS AN ATTENTION SPAN LONGER THAN 5 MIN. KEEP IT SHORT MICHELLE
Deep man….way too deep for 6AM
Way tooooooo long and ain't the time nor interess to read that REALLY
God, no wonder she drinks.
Imagine living inside that head.
Id be self medicating too, just to get a break from myself…
Oh god, I'd love to have a conversation with her. I totally have a perspective on that! Love it.
I totally commend Michelle on trying really hard to sound intellectual and innovative, but she is trying WAY too hard. As a writer, I think I speak for the rest of us when I say… using big words doesn't necessarily convey something better than average English speak. A for effort, though!
Is she the woman who teaches dancing on Ditty show.?
A little rambling, but, she has some important ideas starting to brew. I think she is headed in the right direction. Don't judge her on what time she is up blogging, we all have different schedules. It's 7am and I am not just getting up, I am still up. I work nights! For some good insight into what is really going on in the world…look up the video "Zeitgeist" (google video I think)
I like her more after reading that.
She's not unemployed Perez. She's just been cast in James Cameron's Avatar. You know James Cameron, don't you? Director of Titanic? Terminator? The Abyss? THAT James Cameron. Do some research first before you post.
Not a fan of Michelle Rodriguez but I felt I should correct the error.
thats is surprisingly articulate mantra M Rod has cooked up she is on to something with the perspective on life existing as a school for the soul evolving as you learn. She is basically saying that every little thing you surround yourself with has an effect on your wether good or bad it will stay you which is why some people are different than others. She would be so fun to party with
She's not unemployed Perez. She was just cast in James Cameron's Avatar. James Cameron was the same guy who directed Titanic, Terminator, Aliens and The Abyss. Do some research first before you post anything.
She has a poor understanding of Genetics
Err… What the fuck?!
No, Kyle you need to expand YOUR understanding of genetics and look up some info on the collective consciousness and….check this out…Dr.Cleve Backster conducted his famous experiments using plants and
simple animals like shrimp. Backster showed scientifically that the
house plants in his laboratory were influenced by the thoughts of
people. When Backster thought about cutting or killing a plant, that
plant plus all the other plants in the room reacted with fear. He
recorded and measured this reaction of the power of thoughts with the
equivalent of a lie detector.
Daily the scientist left the room to go to lunch. After eating, when
he just thought about returning to the laboratory, the equipment
recorded a spike in the fear of the plants at the same time. Thoughts
projected by Backster were instantly communicated to his plants even
though they were miles apart.
Later in 1995, based on the effects of human intention on plants,
Backster was asked to design an experiment for the U.S. Army to
conduct on human DNA. These experiments showed that DNA taken from
the donor’s mouth and nurtured in a Petri plate in the next room
exhibited the same reactions to emotions stimulated in the subject’s
body a few hundred feet away. Again the result was instantaneous.
After the Army stopped their experiments, Dr. Backster continued to
increase the distance between the donor and his DNA in the Petri
dish. Even when 350 miles apart, the separated DNA and the DNA in the
donor reacted the same way instantly as measured by an atomic clock
in Colorado. The energy of the thoughts, and the emotions, or
feelings transmitted instantaneously.
I found her blog interesting–felt that I could have an intelligent conversation with her; I would totally love to chill and philosophize with her. I didn't find her rhetoric pretentious at all. It is pretty deep for 6 a.m. though; reminds me of my drinking days…one tends to turn into a philosopher and go on and on when impaired.
Who the fuck would actually read that whole thing????? Seriously Michelle, you need 2 get an acting gig desperately if you have THAT much spare time on your hands…. sad…..
She killed it… Killed all my fantasies
yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
#25 celestial: like the other person said, she has a job Avatar (by James Cameron!!) and that political Battle movie thing (with Charlize Theron!!). Her resume got a huge bump with these 2 flix. she's definitely not unemployed or crazy. i love how she writes so damn much. it's brilliant. and u know what, it proves she cares a lot about her fans 2 sit down and write so much to them. it shows that instead of spending all her time throwing money at expensive stores, at the clubs 24/7, vacationing in the tropics and hanging with bigshot celez doing nothing for other humans like most other "stars", she takes a minute and sits down and says all of this thankful, humble, and just plain interesting shit.
i found it fascinating and i agree with a lot of points (the ones i understand anyway, hahahah)
by the way, that's a super hot pic. beauty and brains. shit world watchout.
sry sum of u guys have the attention span of a mouse
i find the length impressive. size does matter. hehehe. srsly love it. she rox!
Her spelling sucks cock
OK, so she babbles on about all of this, yet she remains in the closet. Perhaps her word du jour should be "HYPOCRITE'
BLAH BLAH BÆAH - GET A JOB!
I don't see any spelling errors. which is new, and great!
and n e way, bonnie shut up. I don't think shez gay and besides sexuality isn't everything. what about the heart and mind and all of that stuff. that's what she's talking about I think. nice rant.
what a friggin idiot. get a job you has been.
I'd love to hit the bong with this woman someday. She must've been HIGH writing this shiz.
a little crazy and to long M jus say i'm a lesbian fighting it in my own herd there done see lol
Love her and would love to talk to her while passing around the doobie she had to be smoking in order to think like that!
That bitch is high as hell.
There is nothing more tedious that a 20-nothing year old thinking they are deep and philosophical.
.
This is the type of tedious ramblings a bf would have to put up with in order to get some action. It doesn't belong on a blog.
Her grammar is better than half of the people who post on this blog.
i really wish she and people like her would go away and never come back.
Can't this bitch figure out what a paragraph break is?
barbtallica, u r an idiot. plants have fear, huh???? that must explain why all the marijuana trees in the U.S. hate bush. what a retard.
Wow what a long pile of crap. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz… put me to sleep
Correction, Puta: your punctuation "sucks ass." Poor punctuation is a sign of a short-attention span.
We all should encourage celebrities of Michelle's caliber. She is a thinker with a purpose to better her self and improve her environment. THer is nothing about her statement that I would put down. Any person with a sense of depth would understand what she is talking about and be intrigued by her food for thought.
Stop hating and start loving people!!!
LOVE
I agree with Kyle, she has a horrible understanding of genetics. The only way DNA evolves is through random mutations, and if those mutations prove to be profitable to the organism, then the mutations get passed on to the next generation. It's the most simple concept of genetics and evolution. And as for the famous study's of Dr. Cleve Backster, I'd like to see the published, peer reviewed article, because it sounds like a bunch of bollox to me. If this study was viable, I'm sure I would have come across it in my genetics class, but he's not even in my text book. I'm suspect.
i love this chick–is she lez? i need a girlfriend like that
I actually liked her theories. I totally agree with her that life is a school for the eternal soul.
That is simply L.A.-Pop depth. That's not real depth. "School of Life?" Come on. It's cheesy. Everyone seems to have their own pet philosophy these days, and these so-called philosophies are mostly crap. I feel like I just suffered through an excerpt from "Chicken Soup for the Soul." Very painful. Well, at least she can spell…oh, and she knows polysyllabic words. That's impressive for Hollywood.
Wow, that made me want to stab myself in the eye with a pencil.
Man she is all sorts of crazy but at least she can spell or at the very least she knows where spellcheck is. unlike perez.
I really like Michelle Rodriguez as an actress.
She brings a sort of rare on screen intensity that very few of her other female contemporaries seem to be capable of bringing.
Her short stint on lost was memorable and one of the best things about season 2.
I hope she gets it together and graces our screens again in the not-to-distant-future.
/sycophantic rant end
GOD DAMNIT PEREZ! You can't possibly think we are going to read that long croc of shiit?! I'd rather be tied down to a chair, duck taped, and forced to read David Guest's Journal on "Love making with Liza-A trip Down Memory Lane"
Socrates said, in the Apology, "An unexamined life is not worth living". I commend Rodriguez for examining her life. Her perception might not match up with mine, or with others; she examined her life, and that is a good thing. I wish more people would examine and think critically about life.
Those people certainly wouldn't turn to trash blogs to insult others for their thoughts.
hey, I'm all for legalizing reefer too. I love her.
omg wat i would do to get in her pants
I enjoyed reading Michelle's blog,, I find her a great actress,, need her in more stuff,, tv, movies,,etc,,
My favorite Lost character,, she was awesome,, and seems she has a brain too,, would be great to talk to ,, keep on blogging Michelle
THAT CHIC IS AS MASCULINE AS HELL!!! SHE TRIES TOO HARD TO BE DEEP BUT SHE COMES OFF AS BEING VERY PRETENTIOUS.
I agree with Morgan, also I've heard rumours on various heroes message boards that the powers that be at nbc (yes it rhymes) are considering Michelle for a role in the up coming season - which would be too cool for words!
confirm or deny please.
She is nuts trying to act all intellectual and shiz…I love the Dixie Chicks!!!
First MOFO's!!!
Mexicans wearing sunglasses look like the night stalker.
-adrianna is going to med school in puerto rico, she is a hard core lesbian

SHUT UP! nobodys gonna read all of ur bullshit!
Shut up nody has time to read all of ur bullshit!
Now we know why she drinks so much….too shut her brain the fuck up.
she soo believes in the new age concept of new consciouness… finally its starting to come around to people who want more in there lives … but she needs to know life is not an lesson its an experience for our souls… to rememeber who we are .. read conversations with god
GET.OVER.YOURSELF.
Ok so she comes accross as intelligent but purleeaaaase - why do all these actors think they are changing the world? They act. It's not hard, anyone can do it, some better than others granted but it's just acting.
well i got bored after the first few paragraphs i don't think she should be a writer! SHE is soooo hot! i think she should do Playboy YEAH!
she is talking like a scientologist is it just me who thinks that?
please please pleassssssssse Michelle don't become a writer!;)
Whenis she moving to FRANCE?????? Doesn't she had The USA cause she can't floow simple rules. Be gone with her…….
A spic trying to be a philosopher, that's sooo funny!
Deep shit…this lesbo can think… i like her..
BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH
She's is so fly! That's all I know. And watch what u say about her, because she can definitely kick your ass!!!
I think she is a six in the enneagram scale. All existential and wordy and insecure, but trying to be secure by questioning "the greater truth" so as to be better than you and more enlightened. ALL PEOPLE IN THEIR 20s GO THROUGH THIS, ie. what is the meaning of life…
I will tell you. It's going to work. coming home to your family. going to work. coming home to your family. All the rest is extra side bidness to distract you from going to work and coming home to your family.
boring.
I think its hilarious that this moron is just realizing she has "DNA".
Ill give her another 10 years to find out about "nature vs. nuture".
By 2030 she'll find out that Science cures diseases and not from sending your prayer note to a televangelist.
Used to think she was so HOT. Now she seems slightly retarded. Like a 9th grader trying to sound smart…

Her next post.
"Like I discovered these things called books. And they help your DNA soak up this stuff called knowlegdge. You know, its like life, when you pick up more knowlegde is like when you breath in air, like in your lungs. And then after you breath in air, its like your DNA is growing. And then you can walk down the street and pick up some dike at a bar. And then you can tell her about these books, and DNA and all the mysteries of the Universe. Mysteries like, how the fuck I became a "celebrity" since Im a total moron."
it's nice to see a celebrity actually thinking. she's so hot.
this biotch smokes too much dope.
Since when did your DNA change from smoking or your diet?
she's not unemployed. shejust got cast in james cameron's Avatar
Too much crap!
what's she been smoking?
I am sorry, I must have a.d.d. Cuz I saw how long it was and didn't even read it…..
I've got a big cup of Shut The Fuck Up for her.
This bitch is on crack
. . . sounds like somone took a bit too much acid
I guess she quit drankin' so she could take up smokin' crack. What the f*@k was she mumbling about?
My God this girl can ramble on and on!!! The sad thing about it is she had nothing of sustance in her entire rant! It so funny (or pathetic) how some of these people get alittle notoriety, and automatically think that they have some profound and innovative new way of seeing the world, they must share this incredible insight. They are so full of themselves!!!! I myself, would like to see a bit more humility in these celebrities. I guess that's would be a kind of oxymoron, "a humble celebrity"!!!!
^Kathy, people like you are a joke. First, she said she'd be willing to even just be Cameron's assistant. Humble much? Totally. She also sat down and thanked and interacted with her fans. Real and humble much? Totally again.
And just b/c you don't understand depth and philosophy doesn't mean she's the one with the problem. Stop blaming her for your lack of comprehension. Expand your mind. She's talking about how we are all striving for the same thing: enlightenment. We're naturally curious beings and that curiosity leads us to search always for growth and learning, just as if we are in school. She's saying, the body changes and develops according to how we live, DNA mutates and it affects future generations. Just like that, so does the psyche, the spirit, and the soul. What we absord and learn now impacts not only our own journey but that of those who will come after us. She's saying we're not alone, we're all searching for our own truths, empowerments, and enlightenments….she's saying that that is life and what it's all about. And she's right.
Apparently, there's more substance there than you know what to do with. Those who do not understand things resort to belittling those who do. It's very sad. Next time you don't understand something, just admit it. Don't attack someone who's just trying to get below the surface level of life out of jealousy. Some people, unlike you, have more than one level and a deeper perspective on life. Don't blame her b/c you don't. My suggestion to you is to re-read it slowly, open your mind, and try to think beyond the superficial level of existence, and then maybe you'll understand her message. And if you still don't, that's your problem, not her's.
In any effect, if she was smoking something when she wrote this, which she wasn't, I'll have some of THAT anyday.
Btw, she wasn't writing it for people like you guys who belittle others for their opinions, she was writing it for those with an open mind and love to spread. I think we've just learned which you are. I hope at some point in your life you are able to discover how to be the latter, I truly do.
Perez, this is what you call trying to hard. You would think that this sounds intelligent.
Wow #94, I see what you mean! What could I have been thinking!!! I SEE THE LIGHT!!! HALLELUHUH, I SEE THE LIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
It's not hard to see why you would relate so well to her! I'm sorry, I didn't read all of your impassioned(tee hee) letter, but I dozed off there for a minute. If it's all the same to you I would rather get my inspirations from people like: Mahatma Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, Rosa Parks!!!!
You need to check yourself, your showing your IGNORANCE!!!!!!
I'm sorry but this girl obivously just wants everyone to be in awe at how clever she thinks she is… Well its worked, I'm fucking amazed she thinks shes clever!
Yeah Shireen (#14) go for the dumbing of America.We should have more "celebrity talk" inducted in the dictionary of the English Language like "bootylicious","EVOO" and such, don't you think?
By the way, what do you write?
she must have just smoked a big fat one before she wrote this.
If you doze during my words and Michelle Rodriguez's words, I highly doubt you have the attention span and comprehension needed to understand the teachings of Mahatma Ghandi. No insult meant, I'm serious. Congrats that you can name a few of the biggest names in history. Do you know any of their actual messages? Or anyone else besides the obvious names? I mean really. That's the difference between someone of true passion for learning and growth, and those who ride the surface of existence and ridicule those who strive for more and participate iin self-exploration.
In any effect try reading up on all of those people YOU just listed. Apparently you don't know anything about any of them. Their teachings are about peace, tolerance, acceptance, love, and growth. They stand for integrity and push others to strive for knowledge, external and internal unity and internal happiness. Isn't it ironic that these very people you reference, you behave exactly the opposite of what they suggest you do. That's ironic since you claim to get inspiration from them. You're contradictory, hypocritical, and quite sad.
"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win." - Mahatma Gandhi
"The hope of a secure and livable world lies with disciplined nonconformists who are dedicated to justice, peace and brotherhood." - MLK Jr.
"If we want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it." - Mother Teresa
"And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same." - Nelson Mandela
"I do the very best I can to look upon life with optimism and hope and looking forward to a better day." - Rosa Parks
All messages of love, unity, peace….so then why must you bash others who attempt to give the same message? B/c you don't like her movies? B/c she's made mistakes in her life? These are simply her opinions and thoughts. Some peopel agree, some don't. That still doesn't mean you should insult, belittle, and nitpick, especially when her words are at least making an attempt at expressing love and understanding of life. What can you offer that's equal to that? Apparently nothing more than reciting the names of 5 people you've only ever read about in your Middle School History book. Again I suggest: Expand your mind.
