Race of humanity

Jumper - The Warehouse | Contrast trousers - Max | Heels - Mr Price 

You can hype this look [here]

This was the outfit I wore yesterday while I went out with my dad and my cousin Hout. We first went to take some pictures of the improvements and installation dad and Hout did around our lunch bar to send to my mum (who is on holiday). One of the new addition is a basketball hoop. I wonder if I'd be bothered to shoot hoops with my brothers sometimes.

Then we headed to Mission Bay to chill for a bit. We already had dinner so we just grabbed starbucks and strolled along the footpath by the sand until it got really dark. It was very relaxing and there was a lot of story sharing because my cousin is kinda left out of the loop from moving over to New Zealand a little later than the others. Dad's stories went on until we arrived home, oh yeah, he's turning into an old man.

It was a great evening aside from a racist remark from some drunk asshole in a party bus. I have never encountered straight-line-racism, only ever those ignorant-might-not-even-realise-they're-racist racism. But this fella decided to shout "I LOVE YOU LONG TIME" after waving to my cousin and having my cousin waved back. What I don't get is my cousin didn't dress like a typical Asian (plain tee and chinos? your average kiwi bloke), nor did dad or me and we're still subjected to stereotypes. Alcohol may have hindered his judgement but it also reveal that he's a racist prick. It really worries me how in a city so diverse, that racism still exist. I guess inbreeds of stupidity will always be a strong blood tie.

What was even more upsetting was the fact that my cousin didn't even realise that a racist remark was being thrown at us. Which just goes to show that that phrase isn't even known amongst some Asians - so how in the world was it slapped on the Asian stereotype? Okay I'm lying, I know the answer to that - it's from Asian pornos (or so I heard, so as for as I know, this phrase could have absolutely no backing) but what other race has ever had this happen to them? None. I rest my case.

This didn't mean to be a rant post but once I started I had to write every down. I hate racists.

The end. 

Until the next post loves x

Brighter

Before bed last night.

This week has been very busy for me. I'm so used to slacking off and having nothing important to occupy my time. However this week I've completed three assessments, my dance group completed our choreography, my group started on production in our business, work today, picked up my dance costume with Svetlana and a photo shoot for a friend's art project tomorrow.

Next week will be just as busy. We have dress rehearsal for dance that is open to viewers at school on Monday, Polyfest on Wednesday and another production day with my business group on Thursday, gum recontouring on Friday and hockey on Sunday (I decided to join after all and give up 2 hours every Sunday).

I had a really bad day today so after picking up my costume I took Romeo on a long walk. I took him to a park and I sat there for a long time writing out my feelings in my book while Romeo busied himself with spying on the ducks. Romeo tried to cheer me up but his version of comfort is aggressively attacking my face with his tongue and more often than not; missing and jamming his teeth or nose on my lips, cheeks and nose.

I felt a little better after watching Romeo inch himself closer and closer to the ducks but eventually retreating because the sucka is afraid of water.

Once my pity fest was over I took Romeo to a playground and we sat on the swings together for some time. He found gravity to be very confusing.
