Small Rant. [Pro Gay Marriage]

If laws aren't meant to be taken from religion, seriously why is there a big commotion about gay marriage? It should be legal and end of. Why should a law be made from a book which is based upon old tales from hundreds and thousands of years ago? Law is meant to be modern and fit with the times. Simple.


Quite frankly the gender of who you love shouldn't matter. Love is love regardless of anything.

it's a nice sentiment. :)

You know what's lovely to see?

It's lovely to see Christian Bale take time out of his schedule to go see the injured victims from the Aurora shooting in hosptial. He asked that the media wasn't notified and Warner Brothers didn't even know about intention to visit. The fact that he done it off his own back so to speak is brilliant and shows how much of a good person he is.

Okay this visit won'twon't heal phsyical or emotional wounds, but it's a nice sentiment, because quite frankly it's not something he had to do, but he has.

Just a short little post today, but it made me smile to see these pictures. :)

I already know i'll be in tears writing this...

Like my little title there tells you, I'm going to cry trying to write this and attempt to get my thoughts out.

Although i did intended to write a blog about what i thought about The Dark Knight Rises tonight, i find i can't. As much as i enjoyed the film i want to write about the tragedy which occurred after midnight, in Colorado, Denver, Aurora. Something which media outlets are labelling as 'Aurora Dark Knight Massacre' or 'The Batman Massacre'.

God rest their souls to those who lost their lives on the 20/07/2012, and may my thoughts be with their families and friends, they'll have love from all over the world.

It's sad what happened no doubt about it, and i can't help but admit that a few times during today upon reading updates about what was developing; i.e who the suspect was; but i found myself close to tears several times, only forcing myself to stay composed because of those around me. But i find what happened a wake up call. In the sense horrible things like this happen to remind us how fragile life is, and how anyone can destroy it. It's sad that we only realise in times like this, but it is also in times like this people can stick together and support each other more than imaginable. But it is sad that we need times like this to remind us nothing is permanent and that community is more important than we'll admit.

What I hate is the names in which media outlets are labelling this massacre as. It hurts me to see the word Batman, and even just Batman related things (Dark Knight) to be used in the same sentence as massacre. I know that Batman, is just another word in the English dictionary and some might souly look at it as a character name, but to me and many others the word means so much more. Batman is a hero to people, an inspiration, a role model, a motivator. And so many different things to people. I know the name given to this massacre is because of the fact of when it happened, during a midnight screening of the new Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises, i don't know why but i feel a more appropriate name should be given. And i know some people may come across my blog and wonder why the hell i appear to be 'complaining' about a name of terrible event, but i don't mean to complain, i just think the media could label things better.

I don't think it's actually easy for what i am trying to say, but i feel like the label gives Batman a black mark. As i must admit as silly as it might have been i felt jumpy that something could possibly happen during the start of the film, because it was natural to think in the back of your head. 'Christ what if something happens' after all who could have ever predicted what would end up happening in that Cinema? No one could've.

I guess what i am trying to say is that i hope the films and the Batman character isn't forever associated with what happened. As the only factor Batman and the films had to do with this was because of the setting. What should be remembered is one deranged man caused this, a sick in the head coward killed 12 people, who were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

And as i think about it more, it isn't just my selfish desire to have Batman as this hero. I'm not too sure the families and friends of both the deceased and injured would want a constant reminder of the film which their loved ones were watching when they were attacked while completely defenceless.

As i read more about Aurora, the more it upsets me. Seeing an image of 24 year old girl called Jessica Ghawl, she was beautiful, and then to read what she was doing with her life is even sadder. She appeared to be the life of the party and clearly had her whole life in front of her. Its upsetting to see that the killer was the same age as Jessica, i don't know why but it evokes more emotion in me. It brings me to tears hearing about what this callous man did to people in that cinema, to hear the account of Jessica's best friend, who tried to help her before realising that she recieved a fatal blow, is heart breaking. A man of the same age stole her life, her livelyhood, her future, everything. And he stole it from 11 other people, 11 strangers and injured so many more. A part of me dreads hearing about the others who have died, it'll trouble me to hear how long some victims were, and what others were doing with their life.



I do hope i haven't caused anyone offence who might have found this blog and read it, but if i have it is in no way intentional.

Rest in peace to those who lost their lives 20/07/2012.

So it looks like i didn't stick to it again...

I love how i said i'd stick to posting things on here now i have more free time and i haven't.

But then again i have to admit i can't say i have interesting things to blog about. I mean the title alone of this blog is my boring life blogged. Says it all really doesn't it? Hmm well perhaps i'll blog some of the boring things about my life properly soon? Although i have to say i haven't done a lot with my life lately. All it is eat, sleep, gym, work. And that's it, so there isn't much to talk about. But hey for those who do come across my blog and read i shall find something to write about soon.

and this time i really am promising. *cheesey grin*

I find it interesting...

Something which i find interesting about blogger is the fact they have a feature where you can see what countries your blog viewers are from. And i must say it's rather odd.

Odd in the sense where some of my blog viewers are coming from are. I genuinely wonder how the hell they find my blog, it's not like it's a problem, i like the idea random people find my blog but sometimes i'd love to know how exactly they've found it. Whether it be by random google search or something else, it'd just be nice to know.

So anyone who's possibly viewing my blog from many different corners of the world... Hey. :)

It feels like ages.

Gah, so i'm not actually sure how long it's been since i've put a new blog up but it feels like AGES!

But perhaps it feels longer because i've been busy being bog down by stupid revision for this oh so important exams, the sad thing there is they are actually important and i'm not being sarcastic. But hopefully I did enough just to get into uni, hopefully the uni i want to get into but if not i'll live, well as long as i get into  a uni.

Anyway, the long period of revision is finally over for me. YAY. So maybe this means i might find more things to blog about and have some random people read about? Hmm maybe, although it is nice to know that someone out there is reading my blog, even if they stumble upon it accidently or even if the blog hits aren't in the hundreds or thousands, it's just nice to know that someone might have found what i write interesting.

I'm not quite sure what to say about what i've done over the past few weeks because quite frankly i haven't done much. Unless you count accidently dying my hair bright ginger eventful? Hmm, maybe it can be. But other than up until last night i'd pretty much been a hermit.

Last night was a well deserved break from all the studying i've done (or maybe not done) and it was a nice way to celebrate finishing college and at the same time celebrate my friend's birthday.

To anyone who might actually enjoy reading my blog i promise to have more interesting things up soon. Pinky promise! :P

So i'm not going to lie...

I'm watching Eurovision. No shame it! Aha i mean some of the acts are brilliant! In the way they give you a good laugh, and what's life with laughter right?

Sadly i've missed the first hour, i forgot it was on simply and apparently England have already been on so that's a shame i'm not even sure who's representing us i just know he's meant to be the oldest guy to ever representing us.

Greece have just come on and i'm casually wondering if we're all gonna give them the sympathy vote. I mean surely it's the nicest thing we could do. Their ecomony is screwed up and so is everything with their government right. And right there, that's 100% than any sob story that has ever appeared on x factor before!!!

And Ireland! Damn I want them to win! Most people hate Jedward but i have to admit i love them! They get away with murder and well they act so unreal its funny so yeah i'd love if they won because they really shouldn't aha.


So come on Greece and Ireland!!! :P
