warning: kate is broke, swamp, brotherless, gooseless, sick and sore in the heart (just a little).

it sounds like my life is really bad. HAHA. it really isn't. just a bit under the weather. just a bit this time of the month. just a bit lonely. just wondering where some relationships will lead to. wanting something you can't have is not easy, especially when sometimes it becomes your main motivation for doing things. hmm. maybe not motivation, but an incentive. a big big bonus.

monday. during our radio lecture we had some grads come in to talk to us about what they were up to since graduating from coms. it was really mean! it really got me thinking about what i could be doing in the future. it got me wondering whether i wanted to be in the radio industry. it got me thinking about where Jesus would want me to be, how i can be best used. i really wanna work for Mai FM, but listening to it today reminded me how far away i am from being an islander and therefore how far i am away from getting a job on air there. guess i should talk to a tutor about this. and guess i probably shouldn't think about it too much, but it's still a bit unsettling for my mind.

today i didn't go into uni. its the first time ive missed uni for a whole day this year! (i'm pretty sure of it) i've skipped a class before, but probably not a whole day. its cos my body desperately needed some rest. today i'm thinking about media com, and whether exposure to violence on TV fo a long period of time makes that person scared of the outside world. wot do you think, dear reader?

Hello, I am an old man with a young head. which is an attribute gained only by age alone! I have just read your blog commenting about the effect of exposure of violence on TV making one scared of the outside world. I have watched a family friend's fourteen year old's son with their 'Game Boy' driving their make believe cars up pavements knocking over/Killing pedestrians and seeing the score racing upwards with each blow. How can this NOT effect their young minds, illustrating exactly the opposite to living in harmony with each other as we should all be doing.
