World cup fever has started once again, I swore I wouldn't get into it but I've already watched a few matches. (Against my own will, I swear!) I guess the important match was the one with Brazil vs Australia. I was rooting for the Socceroos yet hoping Brazil would win. Its hard to match up to their technical skills really. But pfft, enough of soccer. I'm sick of it as it is.

And then again comes the time where friends start to leave, not known when to be seen again. All these exchange students, flying off to the other side of the world. Depressing days ahead. Not looking forward to sending them to the airport. It still very much is my enemy, the airport that is. I'm glad to say at least I have a few more 'permanent' friends now.

Had a 'conversation' with a friend about homosexual and gosh did it almost get heated. Homo-phobes irritate me. But of course, to each its own. I simply feel in this day and age people should be more open in their way of thinking. I was dumbfounded when this friend said that if his son (if he ever had one) were gay, he wouldn't give his approval/acknowledgement even if his supposed son's entire life's happiness depended on it.

Is homosexuality really such a wrong thing as people claim it to be, simply because it is against the law of nature, or science as some would call it? Ok, so it's a natural act for a man and woman to fornicate because reproduction is then made possible, but its not all about the sex, is it?! I don't see understand the bases of the arguments of homophobics, I think its simply the fact they fail to understand the whole concept of homosexuality, if they even tried to in the first place.

Perhaps its the stereotypes that society and media and portrayed the "gay world" to be, and I suppose a bit of cultural norms play a part. But why do people have to be so conservative in their way of thinking? It puzzles me......but then as i said, to each its own.

Its a neverending argument.
