Well, people may or may not know this, but October 20th was "Wear Purple Day". The reason behind this was to acknowledge the recent gay teen suicide that has risen over the past few months.
I know kids can be cruel, but drving someone to the point of suicide is just wrong.
This is a really touchy subject for me. I have two neighbours who are a gay couple, and I've known them almost all of my life. They are two of the nicest people I know, and I really love them.
I will never understand why the hatred and stereotyping of gay people exists. When did "gay" replace the word "sucks"? Seriously, around 1 out of every 10 people is gay. Are we really willing to shun a tenth of the world's population? Is the human race really that low?
As many people would say, I have finally come to my senses and purchased premier membership. I don't really feel any different. As I type this, I have just come back from a skiing day on Mount Cypress.
Gee, for a first entry this is pretty sad.
What's On The Horizon?

See you guys around the forums with my new Premier status!
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Remember that today is remembrance day. On the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month, remember those who gave their lives so we could have freedom.
Yesterday, I had a very peculiar call on my cell phone. It was a number I didn't recognise, but I answered it anyways. It turned out to be someone by the name of Mark, calling from a local theater called Tinseltown. I had been waiting to heard from them for months!
Long story short, I got an interview this Friday at 4, and I really don't want to forget it.
June June June. What can I say about this month? It's pretty laid back I suppose.
June is also bike month, which I painfully experienced (world nude bike ride day )
For a friends birthday, we played hide and seek in Ikea. Awwwwwwwwwwww yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I've been listening to lots of Green Day recently. Boulevard of Broken Dreams is simply amazing.
A double bed has just entered my bedroom. I've never slept so well.
Enough rambling.
What's On The Horizon?
June 20- Car free day / me playing my sax
June 23- English 10 provincial (3 hours long!)
June 25- Science exam
August 3- Rush concert in the States (Woohoo!)
Well, not really leaving. I will still be active in the B/S/T forums.
More or less, I am not going to be active in the rest of the forums or the blogs. My life has taken turns and I am not really interested in BZP anymore.
