^________________^

I had my little swimming lessons shebang today.

I have never failed more epicly in my life. I thought I was good at breaststroke. I had a rhyhtm of under, kick, pull, up, breathe.

Apparently, I was wrong. It's more like pull, up, breathe, under, kick, glide. I felt like a noob the whole time.

The lady doing it was like "Wanna take off your sunshirt?" and I was like "nooooooo. D'urggggg" >___>. Then she's like mmk whatevs.

Then I was like drowning while attempting butterfly. And she's like " wanna take it off now?" =D. And I was like "NO" <__<.

It was horrible and weirding and tough and embarassing.

I want to go forever ;__;

In other news, everyone's heard about the Arab-Israeli conflict occuring in the Gaza Strip.

The anger is justified. Israel was established around 60 years ago by the UN, and when this was done, it encompassed many of the holy sites in Palestine. Plus, the Gaza Strip is like the most fertile area. The anger is justified.

War is NEVER justifiable. There's never been any good come of a war. The Israeli PM or President or w'ever was like "There will never be peace unless Hamas recognises our right to exist and this will prove it to them". Really, Mr. Israeli Power Figure? There's a better way to get peace if you want it. Talk to the Hamas leaders.

Put. The. Freaking. Guns. Down.

Is 550 Palestinian deaths not enough?!

Is 140 dead children not enough?!

Anyone who's read my blog for a while knows how much I respect Queen Rania of Jordan. On her YouTube page, she talks about the conflict in a new video.

She states how it's not just a violation of international and humanitarian laws, but also moral code. She's right; this is a truly sad state of affairs.

Well, I suck at everything. >_>

Can the Israeli/Arab/whatever just live peacefully? So we can deal with more important things like global warming/ecomonic crisis/when's Rove coming back on TV/stalking Dale Thomas and his gf while they holiday in Bali/idk.

There is nothing good about this bloody war. Gah.
