This is what a real student protester is like.

Head on over to Blossom's place for her account of the student protest yesterday. She's a mature student at the Hegemon who went on the demonstration because she felt she had no choice. While all the attention is paid to the hotheads, people like Blossom are on the streets - perhaps for the first time - because our illegitimate government is hellbent on ideologically-driven policies without regard for fairness or the long term.

Feeling low?

If you've had a hard time, mentally or spiritually, go and read Blossom's account of surviving - rather triumphantly -  a hard childhood, a suicide attempt, depression and a broken marriage.
