Blogginski...

Right here we go…
My plan to try and write a blog every week and the failure of such plan borders on the modern internet writing cliché. As does the following excuses; I’m lazy, stupid, busy, boring and incompetent. And while we are in the realm of the lack of blogging excuses I actually have plans, notes and research for three blogs. But this is not one of them because I am currently snowed under by university work and the blame for this can be fragmented on to myself, university and my slow brain. However my slow brain is a result of television, social media and my dyslexic genes, so the last fragment of blame can be put on modern society and my genetic history a.k.a my family.
Now some may say this blogging for blogging’s sake is pointless and procrastination, I beg to differ. This blog is hopefully a reflection of my mind at current and therefore, is not pointless, as it is recording my own little part of history. I’m also using this blog as a release, as a method of contemplation after a day filled with spontaneous cleaning (that is I admit procrastination) and actual, real life, several hours of studying. Although reading about Marx and weber and desperately trying to relate them into a piece on the relationship between religion and the world of work feels like simultaneous mind melting and implosion.  
Anyway enough about me, how have you been?.............. Really?....... Wow that’s interesting. So did you hear about those university of California students who got pepper sprayed in the face while staging a peaceful protest in support of the global occupy movement? Did you watch the truly horrifying video footage? Did you sign the petition calling for the university chancellor who called in the police to resign? No? Well here it is. Please sign it if you’re a student, a teacher, a peaceful person or even just a decent human being!
Well I hope this example of human brutality keeps your beautiful mind clicking for a while. But don’t forget what you do for yourself, those around you and your fellow human being matters. It means the world.
P.S I don’t think of myself as a socialist hippy, honest. Even though the popular media might have you think so, I like to think of myself as a decent but not perfect human being… BTW OCCUPY! FTW!!! Init.
