Everyone's favorite public holiday: Reconciliation day! Technically it was yesterday but since we all get to stay at home today, I'll allow it.
'Reconcile' is to restore or bring together. To be completely honest I never really understood why we celebrated this holiday sooo I Yahoo'ed it. Just kidding. I totes Googled it. And according to Wiki [ so it must be true] the holiday came after the end of Apartheid to celebrate the rainbow nation coming together. That's a pretty good reason to have a public holiday to me! Don't you love how we keep learning stuff together? Me too.
Let us not forget to reconcile with people in our own lives. For example; there is someone I have been avoiding for the past few weeks cause I feel bad about they way I treated them. You know who you are. So today we will reconcile and be best friends again! YAY.
Now you go do the same thing.
futcHAHA child out! [still cool].
A voice for the PEOPLE (...the ones in my head, that is)!!!
Its okay, they know me here!

Politically Incorrect
So whats up with the ANC Youth League consisting of not-so-youthfull people? With its presiednt Julius Malema being in his early 30's, I really wonder if they represent the needs and views of the South African Youth today. I think having a council that represents the voice of us young citizens could really go towards creating a better SA for all of us.
By getting Kids as young as 16 to have a say in what is happening (socially, politically and economically) in the country there could really be strides made in increasing the number of young people that vote. I know that young people today have an enormous amount to say [ so much so that i even started a blog] and want to be heard.
On a lighter note, according to the Saturday Star Juju thinks the ANC leaders are all 'baboons'. Well all I can say to that is Pot. Kettle. Black.
