This is unacceptable. Death by fire in the year 2007. An incompetent fire department unable to reach the village where people are being burned alive. Over 100 fires raging across the country simultaneously. A prime minister blaming political extremists for this chaos, and then later in a speech to the nation proclaiming that he is joining his soul with ours in this moment of crisis.
Elections are in less than three weeks. Of course he's joining the people in this moment of crisis. Otherwise he would just stay in his house and watch TV with nothing but boxers and socks on. What an imbecile.
This thing makes me so sad, I want to cry. For the people who died, for the morons who started the fire and who should be tried for MASS MURDER if I were a judge, for this whole country as it's falling apart by the minute. And of course, for the sad, sad government. Who will probably be re-elected it seems, and that makes this country even sadder.

On a lighter note, the rest of my news:
- I watched Order of the Phoenix yesterday. The script (and by definition, the cuttings they've made in order to make the script) was, as always, completely atrocious. But the cinematography, the effects, etc (ie. the visual aspect of the film) was amazing, the best one YET. It was a good sight, but as a Harry Potter movie it failed AGAIN.
Eh well, I did not expect anything better.
*lowers voice to a whisper* Was it just me or is Emma actually getting better at acting? Still the striped sweaters and the curls, and OMG the French braid in the Dumbledore's Army scene... Who are you and what have you done to Hermione Granger? - Prince of Tennis fanfic is going great; today I finished re-writing chapter 2, and I'm going to get started on chapter 3 soon.
- NTNG lessons are going amazingly well, I got a new monologue today. :D It's brilliant. It's an adopted daughter talking to her mother, who has stopped speaking altogether and the whole family now feels guilty. Good play. :) Unfortunately my teacher doesn't like my squeaky voice and stuff but I can't blame her, she grew up in a time where squeaky was impossible to imagine... The bad thing is that she kinda pressures me to change my voice, and I am NOT doing that for anyone. I know the squeaky, cutesy voice will be gone eventually, but right now that's who I am and if someone doesn't like me he is not requested to tolerate me.
- Meh. During my days of absence I have thought of nearly a million things to post on LJ about, but without the internet... it's been impossible. Never you mind though~ I'll be faithfully blogging every day when things get back to normal. Internet's still not back, but we're on our way. XD
- Been reading the Silmarillion. It's not as bad as people say, at least so far it isn't... I'm really enjoying it!! :)
Hope all of you are well... Talk to y'all soon!! <3
