Bemusement and Indignation

Maori committee to investigate smoking

'This is a war against people who kill New Zealanders'

(http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/national/2894729/Maori-committee-to-investigate-smoking)


Basically, the gist is, the Maori Affairs parlimentary select committee are investigating the impact the tabacco industry is having on Maori People.


This may seem like a bit of a dull article,  but with Hone Harawira involved, it never can be:

'To be brutally frank I'd like to lynch these bastards."


This quote was sadly omitted from One News. 

In other news...
Phar Lap statue almost complete
(http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/2896269/Phar-Lap-statue-almost-complete/)

Only in NZ is this considered News worthy.
It seems we always, ALMOST do something

Whats even worse, is this article was ranked higher on the Stuff.com website then:
School Girl Killer appeals sentence  - The Rapist and Killer of Marie Davis mind that.
and 
Woman Shot Dead in Matamata

Only in NZ.

Eggbeaters of light...






Here's some outfits from a friend's birthday party... unfortunately I can't remember where all Harriet's stuff is from!

*enter Harriet*
Top was thrifted, Belt comes from my completely gorgeous rock and roll dress, jeans are from JayJays and the shoes are just really old vans that i've had for ages :)
*Harriet leaves again*



My dress was a birthday present, cardigan is my sister's from supre and the shoes are from Wild Pair. They're awesome. But I walk very slowly in them.




Here are the aforementioned eggbeaters of light... no idea how I managed to take this photo but it looks cool. I love taking photos without flash. There's a few more cool ones I might put up later!
