Got one of those 'Say 5 positive things about yourself' asks but I still haven't done it. I'm just not feeling very self-positive at the minute. I'm so busy with work and with being ill that I don't have the energy for the colossal task of keeping up my self-esteem. So apologies for not doing it, my emotions retry much feel like they've been dragged over shards of glass.

Thank you! She said that she enjoyed interviewing me so I think that's a good sign? Just need to wait and see now!

jwisoulsby replied to your post:unfollowed someone for posting a ton about freedom...

I’ve not seen much on the latter side of my dash- have you seen any particularly good posts to share?

Twitter critique of Charlie's comics (this post contains images of the comics so tag it) France bans the burqa and the niqabs Terror attacks on Muslims since the shooting Twitter trends #killallmuslims

Here's an article on France's history of Islamaphobia in context of the Paris shootings.

And one from a few years ago that has a broader scope on the violence.

No one should have been shot. No one should have been killed. But framing this as an issue of free speech, when there is no threat of anyone actually taking away someone's right to make racist cartoons, is massively oversimplifying the situation. We should not be vilifying racists because they died. We should be looking at what is so wrong with society that these sort of tactics are the only way some people feel like they can be heard. Killing people is wrong but so is being racist and we can't excuse and defend oppressive and violent behaviour because the was retaliation is worse.

NICE THOUGHTS CHALLENGE. Once you get this you have to say 5 nice things about yourself publicly and then send it to 10 of your followers

Oh god really? There are like no nice features about myself. Okay…

1) Good empath.

2) Always has chocolate and coffee.

3) Has surprisingly good advice for someone with little actual life experience.

4) The biggest drama queen in the world. Is that good? I’m putting it down.

5) Gives amazing hugs (so I’ve heard).

RULE #1: Always post the rules. RULE #2: Answer the questions of the person who tagged you and write 11 new ones. RULE #3: Tag 11 people and link them. RULE #4: Let them know you tagged them.

The questions I got:

1. What’s your earliest childhood memory?

I remember meeting my best friend back then. We drank lemonade in my back yard.

2. Are you a person that can forgive easy?

Probably too easy. And I've done than one too many times and I think I know better now. I hope so...

3. What is the first thing you recognize when you meet someone new?

Probably eyes och hair. Maybe the way they dress. 

4. Favourite non-pet animal?

Maybe all kinds of cat animals. They're soo cool!

5. Last song you listened to?

Hey Brother - Avicii.

6. Favourite movie and why?

The Dark Knight. Batman has never been better. Nolan is the best film maker ever. The acting is amazing. Heath Ledger's Joker is probably the best villian of all time. 

7. What’s your opinion about Heaven and Hell? (really curious)

I'm an atheist, so I don't really belive in any of it. I don't think there is an afterlife and I don't thing you get born again. 

8. What’s your favourite kind of pie?

Man, I love all pies! Rhubarb is amazing though.

9. Do you prefer train or bus?

Train! I never use the train or the bus, but if I could choose, I'd take the train.

10. Pessimist, Optimist or Realist?

I would say realist, but that might be the same as pessimist. Well, one of those. I'm not a very optimistic person.

11. What’s the biggest turn on for you?

Right now I have a thing for dark, curly hair. Benedict's Sherlock hair is the hottest thing in this world.

My questions:

 Who has been the most important person in your life?

What was the happiest moment of your life?

Who has been the biggest influence on your life?

Who has been the kindest to you in your life?

What are the most important lessons you’ve learned in life?

What are the funniest or most embarrassing stories your family tells about you?

What are you proudest of in your life?

How has your life been different than what you’d imagined?

How would you like to be remembered?

Do you have any regrets?

Where would you like to live?

The waiting game. ((Ahem. Art references ftw :) ))

Well, this is fun.

If another 57 drives past this bus, i won't be happy...

Somebody (a clever person, obviously) drove their car into our bus. And now we've been sitting here (within walking distance of my house, which seems to be a running theme of late), for... almost an hour?

So, we're already ten minutes late for school, even without the time it'll take to drive there when the replacement arrives...

I have a philosophy exam in about an hour. Excellent. Well, at least we've had time to revise, i suppose?
