someone will shoot me sooner or later for not having the pictures uploaded. my sincere apologies, as i've been rather busy of late. yes, i've finally started working. today was my first day, as an english/math tutor to foreign students sitting for the enrollment exams. i think teaching is a career i might eventually consider. i like it. the children might be terrors, or the demands of the job extremely high, but i truly enjoy it. although i might not be the best role model in terms of moral standards (i hardly have any) or 'good' social behaviour, i believe in educating young minds to be knowledge seekers. ask me again in a month and i'd tell you the same thing.
i've been wanting to join AWARE since Dell got involved with them some time last year, but it just never got to my list of priorities. however, recently, it's been hovering at the back of my mind, and i finally remembered to join today. funny how i've been thinking about it the entire day though. i want to participate in their campaigns, and help abused victims. it's something i feel strongly for, i think it's a calling of sorts. friends claim me to be feminist anyway. so, whilst browsing their webpage, i found a few interesting, and noteworthy lines.

"I myself have never been able to find out what feminism is; i only know that people call me a feminist when i express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat." - Rebecca West
"Remembering what a rapist looks like isn't the problem. Trying to forget is."
