following school on friday, i found that my auto show plans had been shattered.
miss dee found that the time scheduled was inconvenient for her given her location and she cancelled.
due to this spare time i found, i ended up at the central branch of the mississauga library system.
i returned the books that have been overdue for more than a month and i ventured for more fines.
i was able to find a number of resources for my law essay as well as my homeric essay.
topic: the prison system. topic: helen of sparta and the trojan war.
feeling adventurous, i decided to attend the town hall meeting scheduled that evening.
the discussion was concerning bill c38 - the marriage legislature and homosexual rights.
it was not an open forum. rather, it was an attack on the homosexual community.
approximately 93% of the attendants were against the idea of a homosexual marriage.
the majority of these activists were of the sikh community and extremely religious.
i felt a bit awkward as i was oriental, young and a female - all of which seemed to be a minority there.
a few sikh men invited me to sign their petition against bill c38; however, i declined their offer.
this rejection spiralled into a whirlwind of hate from the religious men.
the remainder of the evening was spent in fear as the others gawked at me in the fourth row.
seated with president, i suppose we appeared to be lesbian activists.
the highlight of my evening consisted of a teacher in my very own catholic secondary school.
he was my philosophy teacher for double periods last year during my ib days.
he spoke out for the homosexual community, despite his heterosexuality.
he stood for what he believed and he continues to smile with a twinkle in his eyes.
this caused an uproar of sorts and the school administration is not pleased.
many protested against such a teacher at a catholic school with harsh remarks.
even still, he stood smiling and he whispered in my ear "i may not be here monday."
he is a champion and i will tell his story of glory if he is punished for his right to speak out.
following the interesting gathering of frustrated sikh men in a school cafetorium, i ate pita.
like the majority of my free days, i spent this one with a few friends consuming beautiful schwarma.
president along with kermit, konstantine and nintendo were my company.
i drove president home while konstantine and nintendo waited for the take-out.
i attempted to purchase cake following my chauffer duties; however, pastry villa was closed.
we headed to fiend's place for the evening - like most evenings - for a social time.
the remainder of the evening remains a blur to me.
there was a negative vibe throughout the evening as it seemed everybody was in a sour mood.
fiend seemed rather mentally disturbed and he, at one point in the evening, disappointed me greatly.
he was unable to control his violent and frustrated impulses and his mother became a victim.
karen o remained unseen to me as she disappeared shortly prior to my arrival.
i have been told that she was in a state of extreme frustration upon her departure from fiend's.
religions was in a rather discontent mood as he wandered from one area to the next muttering.
it seemed a number of individuals set him off for the evening and he was aggravated for the night.
imagine, as usual, was intoxicated and therefore, extremely sexual and disturbing.
i did enjoy the company of a few individuals; however, the whole night seemed flip flop to me.
today was spent with boring b who is, fortunately, not so boring anymore.
it was his last shift ever at the zeroedge corporation and he requested my company for this shift.
we did seemingly nothing and i have photographs of his final shift and the days of boring b.
he will still be attending the staff party the following weekend. hooray.
all throughout the shift, i received telephone calls regarding everybody's depressing states.
karen o has been emotionally abused in ways that i cannot explain.
fiend is a confused young boy trapped in his own mind.
religions is a tad frustrated; however, he requests my company at his place later tonight.
fiend is currently with imagine and i am uncertain as to how much i value their company.
perhaps i will stay in tonight - this way, i will not have to deal with people in general.
my mother has provided me with brownies - not too special, but delicious.
now i await a finalized plan.
