new room!
we officially moved in last night, and i'm really happy about it. despite all the stuff that stood in our way:
- the ceiling is leaking
- i wrecked the padlock to my locker so i cant open it :(
- nobody could open the locker last night, so i havent managed to unpack everything.
but the juniors that live around us were quite nice in telling us about the leaky ceiling before we found out ourselves and dropping by to say hi (i guess)
anyways, in other news, JOHN LEGEND WON BEST NEWCOMER!!
kanye and jamie foxx gave an awesome performance at the grammy's and its my personal joke that mariah didnt win much (HAR HAR) she was very gracious about it at the ceremony, and of course U2 would win album of the year - they should give other people a chance..like kanye. but i'm really glad john legend won that award.
i seriously think im getting addicted to shoplifting..its more about getting things i dont need for free. and its the buzz i guess, i mean i get dizzy from it, and there's only one other thing that can make me dizzy like that (which i shall not mention here). but im so lucky so far cause i havent been caught and i havent been suspected of it...yet. either ways, i should have started earlier :)
about the tribune being under threat of closure because of the caricatures...i dont know if this is the perfect example of press freedom being limited or a good judgement on a newspaper that offers second-rate reporting. in the past there have been incidences when they reported events that were already reported on in other newspapers (read: old news) and reporting different facts from the other newspaper (read: politically determined news?) and i noticed that they tend to focus on sensation-stories..(read: hype) where's the news? sensation-stories are for the tabloids. stop filling up pages on rape incidences, burglaries, violent crime and tell me about what's going to affect me directly. and its too localised, meaning they focus too much on whats going on in that one state, and dont include much from a national perspective. i know its not a nationwide newspaper, but still..
well, i guess we'll see what happens to that newspaper. but if it gets shut down, thats LOTS of people without jobs.
