La Da Di Da Di...

Damn, it sure was quite hell of the day yesterday......... if you were internet deprived since yesterday let me give you a low down on what happened:
   The case behind the shooting and eventual murder of Trayvon Martin was brought to court yesterday, and the man responsible for it (28 year-old Hispanic American George Zimmerman) was found not guilty. Okay, let me rewind this from the start,  George Zimmerman was in his vehicle running an errand when he saw 17 year old Trayvon Martin walking beyond the gated fence inside the neigbourhood looking seemingly suspicious. He (George) decided to call 911 to report on what he's seen. He leaves his car while still talking to the police and after he ended the call, he proceeded to confront Trayvon and one thing led to another, he shot him in the chest which led to Trayvon's death. I think the reason why there are so much controversy behind this is because at the time Trayvon was shot, he himself was unarmed and was still an adolescent which is eventually led to believe the reason why George Zimmerman did what he did was out of suspicion  and racial profiling alone. My opinions are gonna remain neutral for now as I believe there is more to this case that needs to be further investigated. Of course there is more to this case then what I have wrote here which can lead to my opinion  being further debated but I'm just gonna leave it at that as I feel I am not entitled to pick a side in this case.

   The next thing I'm going to talk about is the sudden death of actor Cory Monteith. As you all know, Cory Monteith was famous for the role of Finn Hudson on Glee and was admired and looked up to by a lot of kids my age and to be quite honest I'm pretty upset over this. Although I don't really watch Glee as much I got to say he played quite a pivotal role during my early teenage years.
    Tons of people have been speculating that he overdosed seeing it fitting because he was very open about his past drug addiction and just this past April he had successfully left rehab and people who had talked to him just days before his demise he appeared happy and determined.Of course to anyone who reads this are just gonna assume he was just some other young Hollywood star who died the typical Hollywood drug death but the thing is, we're not even sure if he really OD-ed and even if he did, it would even be just more upsetting because he seemed to be one of those people who genuinely was earnest and selfless in getting help and reaching out to people (to kids especially). So yeah, as you can tell this has nothing to do with the show or his character but him as a person. I found this text post on tumblr which pretty much describes how I feel about his death;

sebastiansmythe:

the fact that cory was such a genuinely good person and was actively trying to get better is even worse like not just that he was famous and important but that he was talented and humble and actually deserved the good things that he got and none of the bad things

   But his tragic death shouldn't in any way overshadow his work but more importantly his kindness and warmth with people!

Cory Monteith.......thanks for the memories! You've done so much and influenced so many.

 P.S
