I just need to forget you

I really need to start counting the days to go home........

But i'm not, though yes yes i can slowly feel the " happy-im-going-homeness" true... and YES i should be studying now. But i'm not. I . Will. Get. Down. To. It

DAMMIT WHERE THE FUCK IS MY IPOD

I NEEDSSSSSSSSSSS IT

Recently a ST journalist published an editorial concerning her opinions on domestic violence. I don't want to explain it so here is the link http://blogs.straitstimes.com/2009/3/13/was-rihanna-semi-responsible

READ THIS
it will make you angry

I mean really, giving advise to " change themselves?" really? really? that was my initial reaction. Abuse itsn't about just hitting, it's also verbal abuse, emotional abuse. No-one deserves to be treated like that. Not a man or woman. I just think it is OUT OF LINE to give advise like that. I mean, what if people read it and actually take it? if i were her i would feel responsible!! it is irresponsible journalism in my opinion, there is no way around it.

Sure people have different tolerance levels and can handle it, but the thing is they SHOULD NOT. I myself was in a relationship where i was constantly lied to, tricked and emotionally manipulated, it was not FUN. It took a long time to finally leave that relationship and when i did i held no regrets. It took tons of parental support, persuasion ( they tried to persuade me) and tons of their patience for me to eventually come around and leave him. But when i finally did it, id didn;t hurt as much as i thought it would. I guess i was just exhausted and finally relieved to end it once and for all. I had to look past the love, everything we had been through together, the good to finally end it.

My point is, abuse whether mild or severe, physical or emotional isn;t right in any kind of relationship, be it marital or simply dating, fifteen year old or fifty year old, man or woman. Condoning it just isn't right, i am justified in saying this right?
