Bought my new uniform, and I sadly had to endure certain negative vibes as well. I don't understand how a simple uniform can incur so much wrath. I was aimlessly
harmlessly looking through sizes, and suddenly I have weird girls and a weird guy from a certain established institution giving me weird vibes with their weird glances and whispers. And their whispers were
not whispers.
But I will not let this affect me, because I do not understand weird people, nor do I want to. I have enough weirdness of my own to last me a lifetime thanks.
Away from all this negativity, I have decided that my blog template does
nothing to elevate anyone's mood. In fact, it is down right
depressing. But the problem is I am too lazy to change it back to my simple nice balloon one, and I really like the girl with the zebra tights holding the pink umbrella. It's as if she needs some sort of protection against the storms of life. And that brings me to W.H. Auden's
There Will Be No Peace, which everyone should have a look at. It is a good piece of writing.
I think some people in my class have a very wrong idea about my beliefs in life, especially with regard to
feminism.
Aiyoh, just because I appreciate Charlotte Bronte and Virginia Woolf and highly respect their writing, it doesn't mean I live and breathe for the coming of victory of
Woman over the men. I mean, who isn't upset when we have high female birth mortality rates, subjugation of women, and abuse? I don't use cute phrases like
womyn or
fishers, do I?
I just feel that if it were all different, ceteris paribus, the world might actually be a better place to live in, don't you think? As it is, the world is now seriously irking most people, and we have boycotts, burning of flags, prison abuses, shootings in
gasp horror Singapore, and everything else..
Oh no I realised that is yet another rant on the failure of this world. I should just stop bothering about all of this and lead my happy little life away from all the misery. And I should seriously think about changing my template.
I have a sakae sushi party to go to! Yeah man, I just love parties (:
