I remember the good ol' days when we were all here and together. Now everything is spread out and mixed up. When I was over at his place, we hardly went to school. We must have missed so much of high school, because we would just sit at home, playing on the computer, working on plans, playing sports. It was a great time, haha! We would go to R-Rated Boy's college sometimes and just sit in on classes. One time when we were in uni we also walked into the adjoining college and just walked around. It was a strange place to be, haha! We got out of there quicksmart though. The heydays are long gone now. It's all just a slow, almost imperceptible descent from here. But you do know it's there, you're aware of it.
What's better? No news or bad news? Really, I want you to think about it in the context of your own lives. If you had to choose, what would you choose? You have to, so choose. What will it be? Such humble narcissism. How wonderful. It will be mine.
I'm going to have to make this a relatively quick one, because I have to leave soon. It's been a busy day unfortunately. I would have liked to have written today. But it just wasn't meant to be.
In light of all the insanity that's going on at the moment, why doesn't anyone question the hypocrisy of the stupid people? They say people should do more to integrate and fit into their society (i.e. white, rich and christian), but then they also don't want to be living in the same neighbourhoods as these people. Then they have the gall to complain when these people have to live in enclaves in order to survive, because nobody else will help them except their own ethnic group. That's the problem, most people don't care about people who don't look like them. You can't have your cake and eat it too. If you want them to integrate into your society, you have to accept them and live with them.
So we had the vote for Scottish independence today. For those not in the know, going back to the middle ages, the history of England and Scotland has been extremely chequered. The British invaded many times and took it as part of the United Kingdom, and the Scots bravely fought for their independence many times. But in the end, the question became one of economics and not one of culture. Scotland survives because of the economic ability of England, and thus the United Kingdom still exists. This pains me, because the only main argument in favour of retaining the UK is an economic one. People are only concerned with money and that kind of prosperity. Scottish people and British people are vastly different. The culture is not the same at all. They should be different countries. But of course, the first part of the vote is back and it looks like Scotland will remain part of the UK. This is not what your forefathers died for. It's better to go belly up as a country on your own terms, rather than be the lap dogs of someone else because of warfare and conquest hundreds of years ago. It's not a good look, and I don't know how it's allowed to continue in 2014!
Anyway, I'm done for now.
Joaquin out.
