19 Days Of School Left

I refuse to do any kind of editorial work after this fucking (excuse the language, but I couldn't think of an equally suitable work) yearbook. It's incredible, I am once again putting my IB diploma at risk by putting a lot of work into something commpletely superficial and still if ind myself wasting half my day running around shouting "BABY PHOTOS GUYS". I feel ridiculous, I hope whatever kind of "journalistic" environment I end up in I don't end up being the little annoying geeky one who runs up and down the stairs gathering all the documents together. My personal page is going to be pretty genius though, I might have to just share it once I'm done.

For the rest, I went to a 90s party last saturday and we went all out on the classic hits. As you must all be curious to my outfit:
A white cut up t-shirt with a print of a photo of my sister and my cat a while ago
Army boots
Golden hoop earings
Stripey socks
Shorts
I think I was half-way through a trucker's daughter and a grunger. Some people went all out and actually attached furbies to themselves. My friend Sofia tried to pull off Cindy Crawford, although I'm not quite so sure about whether her dancing really benefited to the image she was going for.
This one was definitley the hit of the evening/day/week:

I never realized how sweet it was when MTV actually played badly coreographed swedish pop and stuff like Peter Andre. Good times.

My year has been growing strangely attached lately. It might because we realize that after this it's done and we don't really have to see each other so we might as well pretend to all love each other. It's a bit like when you start being nice to your parents the minute you move out, I guess.



Anyway, SPEAKING OF SOMETHING INTERESTING.
Yesterday I watched one of Andrew Marr's (whose son I used to chat with and had no idea who his dad was) "Darwin's Dangerous Idea" documentaries. I was pretty shocked about the fact that Eugenics were taken so seriously even in America. I mean, the whole "Arian Master Race" deal I've read so much about that I have learned to acknowledge the fact it was something only predictable of Hitler to go with - but the whole way it was delt with in the US was surprising to me : 60,000+ people sterlized in order to avoid spreading stupidity, unfitness and any form of handicap. I have joked before about the fact ugly people shouldn't be allowed to give birth, but I never realized soemone else had actually expanded and applied this idea using Darwin's Theory of Evolution as completely misjudged basis for it.

Absolutley insane. I also do not understand how Hitler came down to the conclusions that Arian\s were the master race when they were probably intollerant of both cold and heat, with sensitive skin and eyes and not particularly big builds. The master race would probably be a balanced mix of Oriental and African descendancy but definitley not Northern European?! Go figure.


PS I suggest you all download/buy the new Bat For Lashes. It's pretty mind blowing:
