The three-month long Christmas season is approaching its climax, and everyone is starting to go home.

Have you gone to one of their meetings? Now that they allow tenants in I'm thinking of going there to yell at some of these people or something.

Hey François! I certainly know who you are. It is too bad about the video activist thing, but yeah - those things happen. I'm trying to get into an Activist Video Production class in my programme. Fingers crossed!

I actually noticed your username in the 'friend of' list of fastbodies the other day. I had a class with her last year and someone told me that she had an lj.

As for the "ARA", I've never gone to a meeting - I just read about the meeting in the Annex Gleaner. Have they only just recently started admitting lowly tenants? It would be intersting to go - we could yell "SHAME!" at people who get all NIMBY about social housing.

this increasingly space themed bedroom isn't becoming increasingly space themed because of your monster space themed essay is it?
