today was a really important day to represent and voice to the world and our government... A DAY OF ACTION.. really amazed me with the power it possessed. It represented not only students and teachers, but families and the future.. so I did not get to partake in the earlier day activities. but thee bf and i BARTed down to Civic Center to be apart of this fight, because we are both working to become teachers... not only that but the major concern for all these budget cuts is really hurting the children and STUDENTS from k-UNIVERSITY level. I took a lot of amazing shots, and I was moved by the raw emotion of the crowd. i'm no activist, and this was really my first rally; but it damn sure made me feel proud to be apart of this community. anyhoo enough about my rant, I ran into my BFF and my godchildren and BFF's fiance. they marched from the mission district all the way down to CIVIC Center/ CITY HALL.. so it was amazing to see so many young children holding up picket signs and screaming at the top of their lungs about how passionate they feel about their education. after the rally, we headed back to BART and drove to dinner. BFF said she was starving and so was BFF's fiance. we all ended up at KOME SUSHI BUFFET. not bad, we got seated right away and grubbed. (btw I have pictures of that as well, which will be posted shortly).
guess i will post pictures later since the bf has the SLR and I have no SD outlet on my MAC anyhoo -_-. so until then, may you all stay happy and safe.
