Sage and I became lazy this weekend. We left the house as soon as the sun had set, taking both our cameras, and went to various locations (such as the beach, the bridge by our house, and some schools nearby). We cataloged our adventures on film and through incessant posts on our respective Facebook accounts. It was pretty fun. We saw a sunset, had a couple tagging wars, and got to visit my little brother who lives nearby. But then we realized we'd missed the blog. Sage and I were talking about how the freeway near us would be covered in traffic is the zombie apocalypse came...and we both went "OH CRAP." So, I apologize for the lateness! Due to the time and date, I'm only going to be able to give you one story, advice, and a quote. Please forgive us!
On October 29, a flight leaving Hong Kong was boarded by a young Asian man in the disguise of a 60-something Canadian. He carried a legitimate Canadian passport, and it is believed that he exchanged his passport with the real owner sometime after entering the airport. About halfway through the flight, he went to the restroom and removed his disguise. Upon landing in Vancouver, he was apprehended as a potential threat. The man requested refugee protection and admitted to boarding the plane in a disguise. No more is known about this incident or the men involved. However, might I say just how genius that is? You need to get out of the country, so you go in disguise? Pure genius.
This week's advice goes off of my own personal experience. As we all know by now, marriages do not always last forever. If you have a friend whose parents have just been divorced, but don't know how to talk about it with them, then here are some tips. Always support them, but don't claim to understand their situation unless you really do. Be there to listen, and don't be afraid to offer advice, or a sleepover night to get away from the madness. Try to comfort them and keep them as calm as possible. If your own parents have been divorced, do not blame yourself! You have never done anything to make them split up--it was their choice, and they will have to live with any consequences. A very important thing to keep in mind is that you might be upset now, maybe even depressed, but try to keep in mind that all of that will pass eventually. Try to hold on, and ask your friends for support if you need it. You're not alone, divorce isn't uncommon, so you probably know someone with some advice to give. Keep an open mind, and just try to stay sane!
Quote of the Day: Early is on time, on time is late, and late is after it's all over.
Best wishes for your week, may it be on schedule!
