Here's the deal, I want to start writing a blog entry far more often because I find myself wanting to say more and more things all the time and seeing as I never shut up, it means people don't have to be polite and sit and listen instead they can skim read and just pick up the bits they want to! Whehey.
Firstly, this past week I have been getting over a rather nasty chest infection which along with the ol' 'C' meant I was pretty unwell- now that I'm better however it's fine and I'm back to school and actually really enjoying lessons...at the moment. My art is coming along great, ideas wise- we haven't really started much on the creating a final piece yet. English is good, I have fallen in love with 'The Great Gatsby' as well as Robert Redford (my mum was right!) and 'Behind the Scenes at the Museum'- however I may jump out of the nearest window at the thought of 'Great Expectations'. Nothing happens of interest in it- the only thing I like about it is the characterisation of Miss Haversham and the idea that she stunted any sort of development of her character at twenty to nine on her wedding day several years prior to Pip meeting her, while in contrast we see Pip developing more and more throughout (he is an annoying little git). Psychology I love, and will always love- fingers crossed I get to study it at Durham University!
Secondly, while I was off I discovered something really rather disgusting and horrifically cruel- I wish I hadn't! I have recently heard of a poor young girl who suffers with an ageing disease, and my heart really goes out to her and her family and I truly hope that she has a happy life despite the fact she has been landed with such a horrible thing. I admire her mother's strength. The whole family in fact. However on 'Facebook', a site I share a love/hate relationship with, I saw a group of people I know publically mocking her and her situation. Using such words as 'it'... This brought me to tears instantly because I couldn't believe that ANY human being could be so cruel. But do you know what bloggers? I feel sorry for them, because they will NEVER understand what it's like to appreciate anything and actually live for the day.
SO HERE'S THE PLAN.I'm going to start drawing/painting/making art pieces and trying to sell them to raise money for her and her family- as well as busking :) We can buy her something nice with our money :D
Last thing- I'm going to start being healthy...HA! So I may need moral support while I slave away and don't eat chocolate. GOOD GOD IN HEAVEN. D:
Much Love. Coop.
IAMTHEFOLLOWER -woop.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a brilliant idea - i will buy one :) and do anything to help. You do have to weep for humanity at times.
Brilliant :) thanks girl! I might ask people in art to help too and make abstract pieces and stuff- in fact we could make it a whole school thing where we get everyone to just take some time to paint something if they feel up to it and then we have a sale of everyone's pieces so they can either buy their own or someone elses :)
Deletedefinately a plan - if you let me know what you're thinking i'll get sandra on side and use seacole's charity team
