Mr Representative

I'll be participating in an event organised by the United Nations Youth Association of Western Australia.....basically its sort of a mock simulation of a General Assembly meeting in the UN, the topic is nuclear proliferation....we're further subdivided into groups tackling specific issues....my grp is addressing the issue of Nuclear Terrorism and i'm representing the United Kingdom....

Its not an event organised by the school but apparently they'll send some tutors down to mark us for our participation...if it happens it'll be worth 10% of my unit

kinda interesting i think...but its on 29th april...not much time...hope i don't screw up

wish me luck

on another note

heres a joke i got from another blog i read



My wonderful girlfriend and I had been dating for over a year, and so we decided to get married. There was only one little thing bothering me. It was her beautiful younger sister. My prospective sister-in-law was twenty-two, wore very tight miniskirts, and generally was bra-less.One day "little" sister called and asked me to come over to check the wedding invitations.
She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered to me that she had feelings and desires for me that she couldn't overcome. She told me that she wanted to make love to me just once before I got married and committed my life to her sister.Well, I was in total shock, and couldn't say a word. She said, "I'm going upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last wild fling, just come up and get me."
I was stunned and frozen in shock as I watched her go up the stairs. When she reached the top she pulled off her panties and threw them down the stairs at me.I stood there for a moment, then turned and made a beeline straight to the front door.
I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car. Lo and behold, my entire future family was standing outside, all clapping! With tears in his eyes, my future father-in-law hugged me and said, we are very happy that you have passed our little test.....we couldn't ask for a better man for our daughter. Welcome to the family."

And the moral of this story is:
ALWAYS KEEP YOUR CONDOMS IN THE CAR

a little sanity

During World War I, in the winter of 1914, on the battlefields of Flanders, one of the most unusual events in all of human history took place.
German troops began to put small Christmas trees, lit with candles, outside of their trenches. Then, they began to sing songs. Across the way, in the "no man's land" between them, came songs from the British and French troops.
Incredibly, many of the Germans, who had worked in England before the war, were able to speak good enough English to propose a "Christmas" truce. The British and French troops, all along the miles of trenches, accepted.

In a few places, allied troops fired at the Germans as they climbed out of their trenches. But the Germans were persistent and Christmas would be celebrated even under the threat of impending death. According to Stanley Weintraub, who wrote about this event in his book, Silent Night, "signboards arose up and down the trenches in a variety of shapes.
They were usually in English, or - from the Germans - in fractured English. Rightly, the Germans assumed that the other side could not read traditional gothic lettering, and that few English understood spoken German. 'YOU NO FIGHT, WE NO FIGHT' was the most frequently employed German message. Some British units improvised 'MERRY CHRISTMAS' banners and waited for a response.
More placards on both sides popped up." A spontaneous truce resulted. Soldiers left their trenches, meeting in the middle to shake hands. The first order of business was to bury the dead who had been previously unreachable because of the conflict.

Then, they exchanged gifts. Chocolate cake, cognac, postcards, newspapers, tobacco. In a few places, along the trenches, soldiers exchanged rifles for soccer balls and began to play games. It didn't last forever. In fact, some of the generals didn't like it at all and commanded their troops to resume shooting at each other. After all, they were in a war.
Soldiers eventually did resume shooting at each other. But only after, in a number of cases, a few days of wasting rounds of ammunition shooting at stars in the sky instead of soldiers in the opposing army across the field.




This is a true story in case anyones wondering..i just think its a wonderful thing..a little sanity in a mad world

the last surviving guy of this thing died at the age of 109 in 2005....his name was Alfred Anderson


so is war a justified tool of statecraft? i don't know, politicians don't carry rifles onto the battlefield do they.. i don't see Osama Bin Laden blowing himself up for the cause. Movies glorify war. We think its cool.. all that shooting and violence...but why do u think so many soldiers so have been involved in action suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder...its cos war is a fucked up thing...13 yr olds in Africa are given drugs and carry AK47s around killing... but hey its a screwed world isn't it...
i always can't resist a chuckle when i read about Singapore's highly trained armed forces...we're not soldiers, we only play at being soldiers....whether ur an officer a spec or men...we're just kids in NS...
but thats a moot point. i digress

all we can do is carve out a little sanity in a mad world isn't it
