remembering tiananmen square

today is the twentieth anniversary of the massacre at tiananmen square.

i was only nine years old (and recovering from a car accident) but remember hearing about the tragedy on the news. twenty years later i wonder about the impact of the sacrifice that hundreds of thousands of students made for human rights. what do the younger generations who were not yet born think of the peaceful protests and subsequent extermination of students and workers calling for human rights in china.

i found an interesting short documentary on the state military action in tiananmen square on youtube.

Ahhhh, home.

Well, the move is done.

Jen and I are in our new apartment and it is fabulous. The day was great: we had an awesome team of fit young fellas and righteous babes who helped pull the whole thing off in under 5 hours. All that is left for us to do (besides tackle a mountain of boxes) is sit back and enjoy the view.

The sunset from our balcony is something I can really get used to. Too bad the iphone didn’t do it justice.
