Yesterday went well. I got an official offer letter yesterday. am doing the online subject first though which is cool cos I do have to do that subject anyway to get the diploma. so next year will do work from home, online then the following year I'll take up the on campus subjects. so am happy with that! :)

so powerless

So us Ausies feel totally powerless as Melbourne-born Van Lyn (excuse spelling) will be executed in Singapore tomorrow morning for drug trafficking.
Now we all know it's their laws. - we don't have capital punishment versus they do, but it's such an awful thought. Apparently he was trying to raise money for his twin brother for something. wrong way to go about it, yes? but, damn! does it have to cost him his life. he is only 25!
We knew about this for months and everyone has been doing their best to keep him alive but to no avail! I just hate to think of it.
then as it gets closer, the debate was over his Mum being able to hug him one last time! The argument was that it would be extremely difficult to have to let go, (which i agree with) but she is allowed to hold his hand! Even to the very last minute Ausie politicians and his lawyer team, etc. is fighting to keep him.
and of course a close friend of the mother's is having to make funeral arrangements already for next week!
I can't bear to think of it any more. It's just so wrong! sure, drugs are evil and I get sooo mad with them, but I just don't think it's entirely fair - especially as I guess we don't have it over here any more so are not use to it realistically speaking, but then, he did know the rules! We all know when we are travelling to countries with capital punishment.
I dunno, as I listen to the news, I am way too sad to bother with a poll like I was going too.
(but do you, my readers think this is fair or not and why?)
