In need of a redesign since 2011.
I'm feeling all empowered lately. I am gaining points in both standing up for myself and in standing up for others.
I'll write more about the cause I'm taking on at some point (when I'm sufficiently well informed), but if you fancy researching
Stop The Traffik in the meantime I'd be delighted by that.
I have two things to link you to, both of which are so mind-blowingly awesome that you may never recover.
Firstly,
Robot Unicorn Attack (a simple and addictive flash game). Check it out, if only for the epic / terrible music.
Secondly....
I tell ya what, you don't realise just how many friends you have until you have to click "ignore all invites from this friend" for each one of them.
I've been meaning to recommend this site to you all for days. Musicovery is a remote control that will introduce you to new music, similar to Pandora (which is sadly no longer available to us UK types). It's good fun and I've been finding old favourites and new favourites for the past few days. Have a look!
Also, I just searched my blog, and remember I told you guys about Free Rice? (It's a vocabulary game where, for every word you get right, 20 grains of rice are donated to the UN World Food Programme to feed the hungry. It's funded by the adverts - utter genius.) Well I just discovered Free Flour - same idea, different charity, and instead of word definitions it's general knowledge questions. Spend five minutes today feeding the hungry!
... a word at a time! Guys, do this for me, it's fun-ducational ;) thanks to my boy for sending it (how well does he know me, hunh).
I promise, this is going to be my last health-related post for a little while.
I've been to the doc's and apparently it was just a simple infection, or tonsillitis, or the 'kissing disease' or something. But basically I survived, and unless it keeps happening there's nothing to worry about! Lovely.
In addition to which, I'm the right weight for my height, my blood pressure's fine, and I don't have diabetes. Good for me! (Although perhaps I shouldn't be pigging out on peanut m&m's in celebration? Never mind.)
I've been talking to a friend about politics, and changing the world, and homelessness and everything. I want to change the world. I believe it can be done. Furthermore, I believe it SHOULD be done, since I'm one of the few with the power and the inclination to kick up a fuss. But where do I start? Do I just donate £2 a month to the good cause of my choice? Do I turn up at marches and protest everything going?
I'm still finding my way, but don't let me use that as an excuse. I should be starting NOW.
