connections.
just sent an email to the PR department at my college.
i’ve worked with one of the head women on a few occasions.
hoping that they will cover, and publicize, an upcoming event that is a collaboration between two student organizations, two departments, and a faculty/staff/student comprised committee.
it’s on the death penalty.

[video, too] Sudan protests 'echo Egypt unrest' →
There have been protests in Khartoum, with some people calling for President Omar al-Bashir to step down in what appears to be an echo of recent events in Tunisia and Egypt.
Activists said that dozens of people were arrested.
The unrest came on the day it was announced that some 99% of South Sudanese voted to secede from the north in region’s recent independence referendum.
long, long overdue.
just purchased two t-shirts from save darfur.
why haven’t i done so earlier, like years ago when i first heard of the crisis and ensuing injustice in sudan? i have no idea.
the point is, things have changed—for the better.
…and i’m ready for John Prendergast’s visit! ;)

yep, another one.
she is just the friggin cutest thing on the planet. she stretches her arm out so her paw’s touching me and/or my hand.
and she managed to weasel her way under my arm while i was laying here, which caused me to push the laptop further away so she’d fit.
but how could i resist, or even get mad? look at her.
i just fall more and more in love with her on a daily basis.

[news to me!]
according to them, protests in Egypt inspire protests in Sudan.
Tuinisia = Egypt = Sudan = ?
people of the world, who desire peace, respect for rights, equality, and the like, unite!

we only have one world, and something’s wrong with it.
[but don’t get down…]
start today. start now.
do your part.
lead a life full of love.
plant seeds of peace.
be that change that you and i, that we seek.
