i've actually looked at the guardian page for the first time in god knows how long (essay has been fully drafted and sent off!).
prince harry will not serve in iraq - big fcking deal, who cares, seriously?!? prince harry became a non-entity when he decided to dress as an SS for a party.
on the other hand,
wolfowitz is resigning from the world bank for being an utter twat, and that is very good news indeed. even though i doubt anyone better will turn up after him. the economists in my department may try as they might to convince me that the world bank really isn't that bad, i'm not convinced.
maybe in my heart i am an idealist really, and i wish we could all love each other and share what we have. yeah, right.
in the meantime, my fieldwork is getting closer and closer (and so's my research methods exams, sigh), the results for my previous exams will be out on friday and i think i'll spend most of today watching heroes, participating in an experiment for a psychologist friend and writing a proposal for a party in wolfson in august. sounds good non?
If the World Bank is not Africa's best friend is because it kept on goofying its presidents! Working in a projet financed by its money, I am in the position to propose a good candidate for the presidency: our driver. When Francis will be elected, the sky over Africa will smile. Food for thoughts (or maybe not)...
