So I've already discussed this on my facebook page but I'm going to re post. What's the deal with pregnancy pics? Do I really want to see contrived pics of an 8 month pregnant woman and her husband looking like goofs? They're ridiculous!
I don't blame the photographers...they're just looking for a way to make money. Parents taking these pics and spending money on useless photos are the morons. If my mother had taken a pic like that it would probably be at the bottom of my closet and the last thing I would do is display it proudly on facebook.
Maybe it's a status thing or maybe people are just cheesy nowadays. Either way, keep your pics away from me, I will laugh in your face if I see them.
that is all.. :)

The London Riots!
So I will make this post short. What do riots ever accomplish? Nothing! The first riot I remember was in 1992 during the L.A. riots. I was 12 years old and shocked that a city would go insane! The saddest part is that 80% of the people rioting didn't even know why they were rioting. They just decided to loot and steal and wreck havoc.
If you're angry, write a book! Acting like a lunatic will only make you look like a fool and you'll most likely get arrested as well. Martin Luther King Jr. had the right idea! peaceful protests! being diplomatic and civil can solve a lot.

RIP Fatima Lima
ok so..if any of you live in the GTA, I'm sure you've heard this story:
http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/article/603408
This is a tragic and heart breaking story. I didn't know her personally but I was at a bridal shower yesterday where people knew the woman. She didn't have a bad bone in her body and was apparently extremely active in her church. The saddest part is that her son did it!
What upsets me most of all is the fact that people are rallying behind her son and showing their support. Apparently he suffered mental illness? Everyone at the shower said he was just depressed. Depression can be considered mental illness...sure...I was once on medication for depression...I know a lot of people who've taken meds for depression...but we all have something in common-WE DIDN'T MURDER ANYONE! Severe depression can make you want to kill yourself-NOT other people!
Was he psycsophrenic? I don't know. But if he was-wouldn't he or his family have sought treatment? Apparently he was married with a child-what girl in their right mind would marry a man who was mentally unstable? So you see this doesn't add up! And if they find him not guilty due to mental illness I WILL CRINGE! A woman was murdered! By her son! And he ran off after the crime was committed-so you see, he knew what he was doing. He knew that what he did was wrong and had to run off.
People with depression don't kill people and family members are saying that he never displayed violent behaviour in the past-All the reason to believe that he was fine!
There are tons of groups that have sprouted on facebook in support of her son. People saying that we shouldn't judge because we are all sinners and all sins are equal-that is a bunch of BS and one of the reasons I can't stand christianity for preaching that crap!
This man deserves to pay and I pray that justice prevails!
RIP Fatima Lima

Homeless people are people too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This will be a short post but I had to mention it....I went for a walk on my lunch break yesterday and saw a homeless man sitting on a bench...he wasn't asking for change, he was just sitting on the bench smoking a cigarette...all of a sudden a man stops to take a photo of him. I don't care if this man was a photographer or a random person...YOU DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE SOMEONE'S PHOTO WITHOUT PERMISSION!!!!!!!!!! I asked the 'so-called' photographer what he has just done...he began to laugh and said he was taking pictures. I then asked why he hadn't asked the homeless man if he could take his photo. He answered "who cares, he's homeless." That ticked me off royally!!!!!!!!! I wanted to slap him but I answered "does that mean he's not a person?" He stumbled on his words and didn't know what to say....I was so upset I just wanted to break his camera....I just walked away and said "grow up."

More GO train FUN! lol
it's funny how I always have stories to tell about my rides home from downtown toronto...here's today's story....
First of all, let me begin with this: I am seriously considering sitting on the roof of the train to avoid listening to idiots and their convos...seriously hitch me on top of the train...I'd be happy!
So let's begin...I find a seat next to 3 women who are immersed in conversation (it seems they work together)....I'm not particularly happy sitting next to a bunch of chatters but hey, I found a seat and I don't feel like standing....one girl is discussing her wedding plans and the house that she and her fiancee have bought...hmmmmm....all sounds innocent enough...WRONG! She is whining and complaining about her bridesmaids and their lack of commitment to her...hmmmmm...that's funny I thought it was her wedding...ohh well...I guess bridesmaids should be called "bank machines" or "taxi drivers".....well anyways...as annoying as her convo was it only got worse....you can already tell this is the kind of girl who thinks the earth, and all the planets align around her...She even kept looking over at me....perhaps she needed to let me know that she was in fact, the GO train Princess....
fast forward 20 minutes....she's still talking...dear God...now we've moved on to what her life will be like once she's married with children...she says she will have her first child right ..away because she wants to have her first child by the time she's 22..ummmmmm...just how old is she?!? and she will no longer be working she says because as she put it "after I'm married, I shouldn't be working anyways"... .....wow...so much for the woman's lib movement...just take me back 100 years....
One thing I hate more than anything in this world is women who depend on men...Ignorant, classless women who know nothing of culture or the world around them. Yes marriage and children is something most women do...but it shouldn't be the basis of their lives...and I'm sorry...but it shouldn't happen at 22!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ignorant people...my GO train experience
Ok...so I guess I've been meeting all sorts of idiots this week...and this one takes the prize...I really wish I had said something...I've been kicking myself since I got off the train...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....
anyways...here's the story...
A woman (well that's putting it nicely-more like a bitch) gets on the GO train right infront of me. We're both looking for seats (and since it was only 5 after 5 there were plenty to choose from)...she decides to pick a seat where there is a bag placed. She asks the man seating directly across whether or not someone is sitting there. he replies that someone is. Then she snaps and says "Is someone sitting there or are you saving the spot for someone." (Ok, I'd understand her frustration if there was one seat left in the entire compartment and someone was saving a spot for another person but there were at least 12 empty seats all around us).
The man then replied that the woman who was sitting in that seat had gone to the washroom. At this point, the angry woman huffs and puffs and finds another seat (again, there were plenty of seats..I don't know why that one was so important to her)She sits down and says to another woman sitting across from her "That better be the truth!" The woman (who the spot had been saved for) then takes her seat. I don't know if she had actually gone to the washroom or had just gotten on the train. (Not that it mattered).
In any case, the angry woman who again, has just noticed this, blurts out "what a jackass.......I hope they ask him for his passport, bunch of stupid refugees." YES THOSE WERE HER EXACT WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!
Aside from the fact that her comment made absolutely no sense...IT WAS DISGUSTING! and I am extremely mad at myself for not saying anything...The man sitting next to her actually laughed!!!! I couldn't believe this! i seriously couldn't!
It's been 2 hours and I'm still thinking about it! Why didn't I say anything?!?!?! I hope I see this woman tomorrow...I have no problem making her feel like crap!
Maybe I expect too much of humanity...Maybe I'm ignorant in assuming that people understand that comments of that nature are imbecilic.
In any case, I am more upset with myself for not saying anything :( I really want to see this woman tomorrow...Actually, maybe I'll place my purse on the seat directly infront of me...then if she starts yelling at me, I'll be sure to ask her if she wants to see my passport. ;)
