It has begun.

Last night I stayed up until 2.25 am or something. The time of the ultimatum; nothing happening on CNN or Ned2, so I went to bed. This morning TC got up, took a shower and put on the News. At 3.13 the war had begun.

I took a t-shirt and wrote “Make Love Not War” on it in pen. As I’m beginning to ‘understand’ (as far as it can be understood in this day and age) I’m becoming more active and anti.

On the news: shots of a nightsky, flashes of light. The sounds made me sick to my stomach. Sounds of war. A man, clearly in a lot of stress and anxiety, in a foreign tongue (irakees) reporting what was happening.
I cried.

Next to “why” there are a lot of questions that come to mind. But it makes no sense at all. Whatever happened to James Bond? Why not send in 15 navy seals or commando’s to infiltrate Baghdad and take away Saddam, if you want to get rid of him so badly.

Sick. Sick. Sick.

I just never knew I did .

Pretty content with what I did today, so far.

• Skeelered to school. Must have lost like 100 pounds already.
  
• Wore t-shirt with "make love not war" with pride, even though people really stare and point and laugh.
  
• Cut out flyers for Elfwood and Woodworks for the LOTR larp day.
  
• Printed and distributed posters for anti-war demonstration in Amsterdam this Saturday, 13.00 hours at the Dam. Anybody else going to go? Maybe we can meet up?
  
• Passed Social Professional Skills (yes that's a subject here in school) with a 6.8!
  
• Billy. I love Billy!
  
• Found the scenario of the LOTR day in my inbox. Read it, yelled in delight, screamed, freaked, printed and am now shutting up about how I want it to be next weekend already.
  
• It's sunny weather and guess who will be skating back home in an hour or so?
  
• Going to write the chainstory now. Oops am I allowed to say it's in my hands now? It's hard though.
  
• E-mailed my mom, I'm going over to Steenwijk to see Luc's pad for the first time on Sunday.
  
  

SO...who's going to be at the anti-war demonstration Saturday? Maybe we can meet up? silverseabear? Anybody?
