Praying

I'm very sorry for not blogging lately. I just haven't get enough time. A lot to do at school, at home and a lot of friends to say hello to after the holidays. This past few days my thoughts have been with the Palestinians and Israelis who die and get hurt during the war. It makes me so angry. Yes, angry is the word. During the war it is the civilians who die, not the leaders. It's just awful seeing pictures of children, dead or hurt. Children who have lost their families and are left alone in this world with just on arm or leg. It's just awful. I pray for all the families, the Israelis and Palestinians, who get hurt during the war. The lovable Belle sent a really funny tag. It's just rando things about me.

Hello,

oh what a lovely post this is.

All thse 8 little things you are meant to do is so cute.

Paris will be expectacular I tell you. No need to worry. As long as you have comfy shoes and a camera, there is no way you will not enjoy it. It will be the bomb!

I too like Gossip Girl and CSI. Friends and Seinfeld cannot be evr ignored. They are classics, which I love.

Hmm..I have not heard of any of those restaurants or maybe I have and cannot remember, which is more likely.

Little Woman, movie and book, are both on my list of things to get.

Hopefully you will have an azmaing trip and for now a lovely week.

p.s. my word verification code is dessesti, which brings back some memories from a book I read a long time back.

I'm so happy to read that someone on blogosphere cares about the ongoing war..the other day when I was watching the news I found myself crying.Are those who gives the "decisions", are they humanbeings? I don't think so.

What a beautiful add! I, too, pray for peace. Which I guess is fitting since I study "War and Peace Studies" in Uni. Maybe one day...

And a Beatles concert would make my life! If only.

Wanderlusting said...

Love your list - affirming and wonderful! I need to do the same, especially the "things to look forward to" as things can be quite dull this time of year. Though I just got back from Disneyland yesterday, so who am I to complain, lol!

Amelia said...

I love how everyone is bringing up the Israel-Palestine conflict--it's nice to see it get coverage on blogs like this. Nice top 8s.

Petra said...

Yesterday we had an assembly st college, and I was really shocked about how s0o many people new nothing about the Israel/Palastine conflict. It is shocking. And very time I turn on the radio it's there, whenever I watch the television it's there, whenver I go into a shop it's there, I don't normally sear but it's fucking dreadful and it doesn't look like it's going to end. So I pray for all those who are inncocent who are getting blasted to death and I hope both sides get some common sense .
On a brighter note, your future exploits sound excellent.
Hope
