yuuagoJuly 15th: Argentina legalises same-sex marriage
Reading this after waking up this morning made me very happy. Even though there are bad things going on in the world, there is still positive change happening. It's good news. Hopefully more countries in Latin America (and the rest of the world) will follow suit.
On a less political note, this is neat:

It's so cool how things like that can pop up in unexpected places. I don't hear about it happening in America as much, so that's kind of different.
...As for myself, I have been doing absolutely nothing interesting lately. Well, that's not entirely true. I've been studying French a bit more. I'm still extremely bad at it, but at least I'm getting better at hearing spoken French and identifying what is being said. I can put together some simple sentences too... I mean it's all extremely basic, but considering for the most part my knowledge consists only of "Je ne parle pas francais", I think it's a little bit of an improvement. :|
Okay, I've been watching a lot of movies too, recently. Partly it's because I've decided I will use this method to relax myself, but it's also because mum sent me a bunch of dvds for my birthday, so I've been going through them. It's... nice. Nice to just sit and watch something and work on my knitting during that, and not be concerned about communicating with people. "Me" time. It's good. I should spend time unplugged more often, I think. Argh.
