After a game like today, if Wenger doesn’t let Lukas start on this Saturday’s game, idk what I will do.
agreed. lukas has proven time and time again that he deserves to start, and today's match just drove the point home. if wenger doesn't start him next match, then he's either blind or just really, really stupid.

at least you don’t have worry about a hyphen in the url. Last time I checked, the person who has my url without the hyphen hasn’t used the blog in months! -.-
That's how a buch of the Khedira ones I want are. It's annoying. And then the cool Khedira ones I've thought of recently have umlauts in them.

Wow, that sounds like an amazing opportunity! Congrats! I know, I’m sorry to hear things are still so tough in your hometown right now :( *hugs* Don’t let it bog you down to the point of overwhelming stress though. Take some down time if possible.
It is more emotional stuff I'm having to deal with in general. It's sad. It's heartbreaking. I spent the entire night they "leaked" the autopsy the other night reading it and crying. Knowing this 18 year old, otherwise healthy, was murdered and the guy is going to not even have a trial. Today they buried VonDerrit Myers, the kid that was shot in south city. A few days ago they released that his DNA wasn't found on the gun they "found" at the scene and said he was using to shoot at the cop (who was working as a security guard). His parents had to bury their only son as the cops and many other people are on a mission to say he deserved to die. That it was right. Then there's Kajieme Powell who keeps getting left out of the discussion despite happening here on August 19th. Three innocent men, all under 26.
It feels like we have half the area against us. Those people say horrible things. They are posting protester's work information (to call bosses and demand they are fired) and their home addresses! People are trying to make life really difficult, physically and mentally, for people. I don't understand how they think it is okay. How do you rationalize calling a person those things? Posting their home address? We are definitely facing the dark side of humanity head-on. I just got a picture from a friend at another school where people did a silent protest outside homecoming. They said they felt threatened. The people were standing, silently, with signs. That's it. Signs that said stuff like "black lives matter." It's making me run down, and I'm not even on the front lines. It isn't happening to me.
There isn't much I can do to get away from it. And I can't. It comes up everywhere. People complaining, which disgusts me (seriously someone complained about the traffic Michael Brown's funeral caused...his FUNERAL).

I'm supposed to go for their 2015 summer semester (April-July with an orientation course in March). I'm basically in, it's just the formal stuff left apparently. I am just overwhelmed with feelings right now. I'd been feeling better before the past week. Things are just tough.

I know. I can't...and there are some witness reports that he may have been tased before being shot. Unconfirmed and all. The police stories make no sense. Off-duty cop is the first thing. He had a second job as a security guard, which he was apparently doing here. It's taking everything in me to not go right now, but they are walking down Grand. I wouldn't know where to meet them. And Metro is about to close for the night, so I can't. Not having a car SUCKS.
Edit: The taser thing has largely been retracted. Mostly because they don't tase black people, they shoot.
