The dog, Colin, family dog

“It’s a Tibetan terrier or a Himalayan terrier, are they the same thing? I don’t even know. They have a terrier and it’s such a good dog. It was a bit scraggly ‘cause it needed a haircut but honestly, my parents’ dog has the best personality out of any dog. ‘Cause you know the thing about dogs like, dogs are great, we all love dogs, right? Dogs are just like the best but when you get a dog you don’t know what kind of personality it’s going to have. For instance, my old family dog… I loved my dog and it was very funny but it was really a terrible dog. He wasn’t very emotive, he didn’t play catch, he didn’t play in general, he didn’t really interact with you and he was kind of annoying, so because he was my first pet I love him dearly forever and he’s a part of the family but I now realise that he was not really a good dog. Whereas my family dog now, Colin, is just the fricking best dog. They just adopted him and that’s like roll of the dice - what’s it going to be like? And he’s just so, like emotive and he has so much empathy and he really interacts with you as a person. He looks at you, he rolls over to play and he never barks for attention. If you’re watching TV, he’ll just come up to you and just lay on you and then he’ll just be still. Or you’ll be watching TV and he’ll climb on the sofa behind you like a headrest and he’ll just sit there. He’s so zen and peaceful but he gives so much love to you.” (x)

I’m here for Dan’s obvious love for dogs, Colin in particular. I’m also quite fond of the yearly tradition of getting a Christmas photo of him for Instagram. Dan and Phil who? I want to meet Colin.

I just randomly remembered that when I was in Grade 9 and 10, I constantly thought of escaping the house I was born in. I still do. But at that time, I relayed on my partners or friends to help me out but now, I rely on myself. I know that I'm gonna escape it myself because I'm strong enough. If that's not character development, I don't know what is.

Majority Of Victims Of Kabul Bombings Were Civilians

The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) said on Wednesday the victims of Tuesday’s suicide bombings on parliament offices in Kabul were mostly civilians and included women and children. Over 50 people were killed and more than 150 wounded in the twin blasts that targeted parliament staff as they were leaving their offices for the day. The incident took place along Darulaman Road. Karima, an administrative officer for the Meshrano Jirga (Upper House of Parliament), who was wounded in the attack, said staff were on their way home when the explosion occurred. “We were coming out of the building when we heard a huge boom and then I realized that I lost consciousness and that was the time when I sustained serious injuries in the blast,” she said. Massoud, a student at Abdul Ali Mustaghni High School, who was also injured in the explosion, said he sustained injuries when he was attending to those wounded in the first explosion. “We went closer to the scene of the first explosion to help the wounded and suddenly the second blast happened. We didn’t realize whether the attacker was inside our car or he was chasing our car. I sustained injuries to my face, shoulder and hand,” he added. Rahima Jami, a female MP from Herat, was also among the wounded. “I saw that I was fine after the first incident. I got out of my car and went to a safe place to hide, because I was expecting a second incident to happen. This helped me survive the second explosion,” she said. Haji Mohammad, an official from the Meshrano Jirga, who was left disabled in a previous incident, again sustained injuries in Tuesday’s attack. “I was waiting for the car with one of my colleagues when the first explosion occurred. When I woke up I found I was lying on the ground and so was my colleague. There were many other people wounded around us. Later, security officials came and took us to the hospital,” he said. More than 150 people were wounded in the twin bombing. Of the 45 wounded who were taken to Isteqlal Hospital, all but two have been discharged. One patient is still however in critical condition, doctors said.

Stamane mi sono svegliata presto per andare all'università a convalidare il voto di un esame. Nonostante abbia dormito poco e le strade siano ancora coperte di ghiaccio sono arrivata in anticipo, pur di far presto e “togliermi il pensiero”. Il “caso” vuole che io mi sia prenotata ad uno solo dei due appelli necessari per convalidare il voto.
