election fever.

I am really fired up at this election!

i mean your political views may be polar to mine but fuck get out there and make your voice heard! not only that you become one of the electorate…the one that can speak out, you can get in contact with your MP if you do not approve. it seems completely fucked not to vote…minority gov’ts are shit! they get nothing done except make us as the citizens fucking hate government or become apathetic enough to stop voting. 

i personally do not like harper’s politics and am fucking fed up with a minority but im still going to go vote, and if it happens again well by the next election i will register and show up again! 

get off your ass!! 

Boo You Whore!

Election fever is gripping Canada. Currently, symptoms include listlessness, depression … and intense feelings of deja vu.

Oh look it’s election time in our fair country. Someone asked me the yesterday how I would describe Canadian Politics and I said Mean Girls. Basically its a group of four guys who try and be super popular and tell everyone why the other three suck. Then they try to get the semi popular kids (the jocks, the cool band kids etc) to join them and thus pressure everyone into cliques.

Ok so it isn’t the best representation of what Canadian Politics is, and honestly I went into more detail explaining it earlier but I have honestly forgotten what I said…all i know is that i had the quote “you can’t sit with us” thrown in which made me very proud.

If you are reading this and are Canadian I hope you do make it out and vote in the coming election, apathy is a terrible thing for a country, especially one which has had a four elections in the last seven years! Take a stand and be heard, especially with youth movements! I know I am firmly liberal but if you feel like a conservative then get involved with them, learn about them and how they have worked for the country!

In all though as a plea to my fellow Canadians let us not re-elect Stephen Harper, the man has the smell of evil on him and a very crummy fashion sense! He has also mellowed down the true breed of Canadian culture, a culture that is very distinct on the world stage but now is seeming more and more like the American model.

I mean just look at him. His vest is fucking leather and that hat...clearly the man has no gays to dress him like Obama does.

So there is my mini political rant blog…just remember Mean Girls = Canadian Politics. With Harper as Regina George!

Spread Legs Not Lies.

Her entire rant is as ridiculous as the concept itself. Also this was thought of in 1994? I mean come on…just douse them in astroglide and blast some techno beats have the biggest circuit party in a matter of minutes.

Things That Break My Heart

The reason this breaks my heart is I love Florence + The Machine and hate Twilight.

In fact, hate may be too mild.

I enjoy this song…still fucking hate Twilight, like really? Sparkling vampires, bitch lead character and the denial of self. Good lord no wonder young girls across the world are having such bad identity issues.

If you want vampire fiction that isn’t dumb read something like Carmilla, anything by Ann Rice or even Dracula. Instead of those shit movies watch something like True Blood.

That is all.

Things That Break My Heart

And so we begin again. The struggle. How we try to resist it, the darkness that hides behind our eyes clouding our judgments threatening to make us into animals and tear each other limb from limb. My tongue craves freedom, to deliver the words which I feel entitled to, but I don’t I am too tired. I have given up on all that. I have been that person once before and I have shed that skin, a great serpentine threat which still threatens to tie  me up again and sink its teeth into my spine.

So instead I will hide my anger, my sadness and my disappointment. Be happy wherever you end up and know I will hold you no ill will in the end.

Smile.

Big Boy

I have come to the realization that it may be time for me to get a big person hair cut. Just cut out all the youthful length out of it and then maybe someone would hire me for a full time job. I don’t even think my hair is that long, its not as if I look like cousin It from the Adams Family…

THWOMP!

Now for some music:

Something light and Canadian (tomorrow is Canada Day after all)

Well I’m off to finish making my vegan curry soup annd perhaps bake some delicious french bread to go with it. Perhaps I will find a job tomorrow, wish me luck yes?

Reinvention

I need a change, everything is moving at a fixed rate and the pace is really beginning to get to me. On my way to Vancouver last Saturday (May 30) I looked at the missing posters on the wall and wondered how many of those people simply left to start a new life somewhere else and did not want anyone of their old life to follow them. Saved up enough money over a certain period of time and took off. Then talking to my friend about it really made the idea stick in my mind this week.

While this would be heart breaking for families and some friends I’m curious at this point in my life how it would feel to do that. End up somewhere far away with nothing but a suitcase and a thousand dollars to make your way on. Go somewhere like England or Russia and completly dive into becoming the person you always thought you were meant to be. You probably could never come home if the plan began to fail, unless you thought of a great excuse to why you had to leave.

In all not the wisest choice a person could make (unless circumstances were necessary, there are much better reason to leave then boredom and fear of routine).

Anyways this was more of a rant then anything else. Have a pleasure day, and treat yourself to an adventure.
