The Revolution Will Not Be Televised

Today was the first day of the Model UN debates. I'm a part of my chapter's club, and we debated world affairs issues relating to humanitarian, economic, and politocal happenings. I'm saying this to say this: I'm starting to find that a lot of youths are now taking part in advocating, educating themselves, and realizing the importance of what happens around us on the global scale. With the revolution in Egypt, the protesting, and the unprecedented acts of solidarity, we saw the youth really stand up for their interests.

I hope that the acts of the Egyptian people will be an inspiration for people who live in oppressed countries, and democratic states to really get together and realize we are all connected. The examples of unity that I've seen from the Egyptian people and the people around me has truly been an inspiration.

With that being said, I'm taking a little mini break from social media for a little. Jut to clear my mind, and think about things. I rarely update this blog, but I frequent a few social networking sites that I usually purposefully abstain from using to test my willpower. I may update use this site to document things, though.
