Some Nasty Things

Some of you might actually have heard about this but most people around these parts seem painfully unaware. The G20 summit was recently held in Pittsburgh PA which happens to be about a two hour drive away from me and there was a large amount of protesting by "anarchist groups" in the city. They began a march towards the conference centre where the summit was being held and were told by ranks of riot police that their protest was an illegal assembly and that they would be teargassed if they didn't desist.

This however, is not the horrific part of the story. As well as assaulting the protesters the riot police also beat, arrested and teargassed Pittsburgh University students who were on campus and just happened to be casual observers in the wrong place a the wrong time. Is it just me or is that a little out of control? And as I stated earlier hardly anyone even seems to be aware that it happened, watch this.

About a week and a half ago at school this girl suddenly came in with this ridiculously huge pink/purple mohawk. I'd seen this girl before and previously she'd had really long beautiful brown hair and then she just shaved the sides and dyed it. I saw it and was kinda like ok that doesn't look that fantastic but that's pretty gutsy, especially at Red Land High School. BUT THEN, I was walking behind her and she started talking to this guy at his locker and he just looked and her and went "that's embarrassing" and walked away from her so she followed him (and I did to) and she kept trying to talk to him and kept saying that he was her best friend and why wouldn't he talk to her and he wouldn't even look at her he'd just shake his head say "that's embarrassing" and keep walking. It was all very sad...

This one is a little raunchier so smaller children should perhaps not be perusing this one... So the other day in English I left to go to the toilet and I went into a cubicle and the guy in the one next to me WAS HAVING A FRICKING WANK, I could hear him gasping and flapping away the whole time I was in there and then there was an incredibly awkward moment when I was washing my hands and he came out and we met eyes and just quickly looked away while he grabbed some paper towels and hurried out. I really wanted to say something but I just couldn't bring myself to do it, it was just so weird. Come on though, can't you show just a little self control? Instead of having to go rub one off in the school toilet at like twelve in the afternoon? Jeeze...

lots and lots of love *sigh*
