10:53pm: Yes indeed and I'm sure you all needed to hear that, LOL. But yes I do, it's humid as Hell here and I have to wear shorts so...!
In other news, my parents are going to the airport and this means...duh duh duh! The drive. Humbugs...Well, I best bite the bullet I suppose...Face the fear and do it anyway. Still...it's a pain in the ass and somewhat exhausting.
Anywho, today it was back to the library! Good times, good times. I'm reminded that I need to apply for a few library jobs that my mother tipped me off about - she heard from a girl at her work who looks for library jobs too. I haven't heard from the Hornsby Council, which gives me the feeling that I'm not even going to get an interview. Lame.
Anywho, let's have the Meme - since one isn't up any more and the book one hasn't been posted yet.
3x Thursday
Political Agendas vs. The People
1. Do you feel that government agendas have become more about political parties and less about what the people want/need?
Here in Australia, yes, it's got rather sad lately. I mean the Labor Party's still preferable to the bloody Liberals, but a lot of the time there doesn't seem to that much difference between them. And the State Government is horrible right now...the alternative onesounds like they'll be just as bad, so we're caught between a rock and a hard place, it sucks.
2. How do you feel about political parties in general? Do you think their time has passed? Why/why not?
Well, I think they're necessary, if everyone was independant things probably wouldn't run very smoothily. Our Government had to be made up with Independents and it took for-bloody-ever to happen! And things are not getting along much at all...But that just could be the Liberal Party being a complete pain in the ass.
3. If you ran a country, what form of government would you choose? Why?
I have no idea...Consititual Monarchy's going pretty well for us here in Australia, so hey, why not go with that.
Righto then, that's all I have to say for now.
Goodnight all!
