my imperfect offering

Well here it is ..
I used to do the whole livejournal stuff way back in junior high but i figured, if i want to be a journalist i should probably try different types of writing so, here it is.
this is my imperfect offering to the blogging world. i don't know what i'm doing and no one will read this, i'm sure, but what the hell ? nothing is perfect and i might aswell expand on forms of writing.
i'm not really sure what i'm going to write about on here but i'm sure it will all be quite interesting.. atleast to me..
that's the beauty of the internet.. if you don't like it you can press the tiny little 'x' in the top right hand corner of your screen.. fascinating, isn't it ?
this isn't too difficult, i've written about things of no importance whatsoever and i'm already on a role..
i really should be finishing my essay on socialism but it's a little difficult to write about the positives when everyone is so hooked on the negatives. there isn't much information out there, that i could find atleast. it's frustrating because everyone is all "oh the collapse of the soviet union, socialism is bad!" but if you honestly believe that then you have not looked into it enough. Socialism is based on the people and creating equality for the people. Tell me how the hell that is such a bad thing ? what happened in russia and what's happening in cuba is not pure socialism by any means. it is the leaders of the countries taking some of the ideas of socialism and turning it into what they want.
that's just my opinion..
you can thank my sociology teacher for that little rant.
and you can probably thank my boyfriend aswell because he's the one who introduced me to socialism and basically everything else that involves politics and government and such.
i never cared until i actually had to and now i find it quite interesting.
my thoughts before i learned a bit was that there was no point in voting because people are going to screw up and people are going to complane no matter who is elected but then i realized that we can change that. we are the generation that could/has to change the world. we are the ones who need to vote because our future as a human race depends on it. although, i guess all generations were/are the same .. we are the future and we need to fix it before we lose it..
i walked around halifax today and realized how absolutely beautiful the city is. everyone is so unique and has there own interesting stories and it's almost inspiring. there was a guy playing guitar on the corner across the street from starbucks and he was really good. the first time i saw him he was playing While My Guitar Gently Weeps. There was another guy playing the violin down the street. They were both amazing.
I love halifax.

anyway, i guess i should probably get to that essay, as it is due tomorrow..
ttfn.
