If this world is wearing thin... and you're thinking of escape...

[dotinthesky]

Thank you everyone for your words, your support and your love. I'll pass it on to my cousin and let him know that there are people in this planet who care, who grow sick with random violence. He's only 18 and I'm sure it will mean a lot to him.

As for myself, I just want to go out tonight, get drunk and forget reality. Immature perhaps? But the best medicine, if you ask me. No time to think, no time to contemplate violence and feel powerless. So I'll drink, I'll dance, I'll make friends, I'll be with friends.

We are braving the same club, D-Edge, we went last monday - that place that played rocking 80s tunes, punk, and a few daft rock numbers from the poodle period.

This is the place:



now imagine it filled with smoke and people and you get the picture of my night.

they have one suspect, according to the newspapers... violence is endemic in Brazil and i feel very angry right now.

I'm sorry. I can't imagine how awful that must be.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

it's awful because Brazilians are such a gentle, easy going people... they don't deserve this. But, since they are a Drug Corridor, the number of crack heads is huge.

ohhhh, I had no clue it was a Drug Corridor. I must admit to knowing nothing about Latin America.

yeah... all the stuff from Colombia, etc, comes through Brazil before heading for Europe and America.

[peraventure.livejournal.com]

ah. *looks at map* Ok, I thought Colombia was Northish of Brazil. Why does it go through there before heading to America? I can kind of see it for Europe...

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

its less obvious then just going straight from Colombia. Less suspicious.

[peraventure.livejournal.com]

duh. sheesh...but I guess it's good that I don't instinctively understand that.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

me neither... i just grasp some info once in a while from my family or the papers... better to try and keep the illusion that this world is ok.
