To love.  To be loved.  To never forget your own insignificance.  To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you.  To seek joy in the saddest places.  To pursue beauty to its lair.  To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple.  To respect strength, never power.  Above all, to watch.  To try and understand.  To never look away.  And never, never to forget.
Arundhati Roy on activism
 
Iraq.  Iran.  Latin America.  Sudan.  United States.  United Kingdom.  Illegal immigrants.  Terrorists.  Freedom fighters.  Democracy.  Hypocrisy.  Borders.  Difference.  Money.  Oil.  Power.  Poverty.  Politics.  Freedom of speech.  Black lists.  The end of civil rights.
 
Ah, what a wonderful, wonderful thing it is to be human.

Witness the Fitness - Roots Manuva

Every term seems to surpass the last one.  This one has been nonstop action, from the elections to my 21st to barn dances with tramps and trannies to oh so much more.  I know you want pictures, so get out your tissues and enjoy.

Lots of pies were to be eaten.

By Yoshi...

And his competitors.

I suppose the dancing was quite enjoyable too.

Everyone loves a good barn dance.

Except those, of course, who can't handle the pie eating.

ACAS Culturefest 2006: Actually the hottest dancing I have ever seen in my life.

Except, of course, when I look in the mirror.

Ah...Seven Sins at HotHouse.  Possibly the most scandalous party to hit campus in years.

Free shots and sushi...

Dance-offs...

Being completely battered...

And just generally having a good time.

Witness the fitness.

We love sheesha.

"You want another spliff mate?"

I love 72 parties.

Possible the coolest housemates ever (plus of course Big Mike)...and the hypothetical 54 girls.

Chocolate cake at the GAC, guys?

Tramps'n'trannies at 72.

Yoshi was filthy gorgeous.

"DO IT, DO IT, DO IT!!!"

Kathleen and Izzy: more hardcore than any of you.  Well, maybe just Izzy...

Did you know Yoshi's a great dancer?

Did you know Rory makes for a very pretty girl?

And did you know I love Mariah Carey?

Randoms.  We love them.


Unfortunately I have broken my camera now, so I won't have any pictures of our in fucking sane trip to Amsterdam, nor of my adventures in NYC, nor of skiing in Canada with Tom etc. for a while.  So, be patient.  It'll be worth the wait.

"Better than sex"!!!!

Janis Joplin - Take Another Little Piece of my Heart

To throw some dates at you:

7th March: my 21st party party party

17th - 19th March: Amsterdam trip with eleven friends

20th - 23rd March: NYC at Preeti's

24th March - 2nd April: Vancouver with Tommy Taw and other old favourites

3rd - 13th April: NYC with lots of people

Then my final term before graduation...with 20,000 words of essays due in May 15th, and full-time work starting June 26th at the union, it promises to be a crazy few months. 

I will hopefully be in Japan for a last visit before full-time work starts in late May - early June.  Hot shit.

Arctic Monkeys - From the Ritz to the Rubble

If you like indie, get into the Arctic Monkeys - they're fucking legend.

Oh, and in case I haven't told you,

I FUCKING WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, this means I am now in a full-time position for one year - I start this summer in July, and will be in office until July 2007.  I'm on the board of directors of a multi-million dollar organisation...how frightening is that?
