We usually met on Mondays to discuss and vote about continuing the strike or not. Last Monday had been an uncomfortable experience since we met in a very old and humid theater, without chairs. This time we met on Wednesday (well, today) at l’Olympia; another old theater, old, but looking much better, with a lot more room and chairs (you see the picture there >>&gt

We again spent four hours sitting and listening to people stating their points. We don’t hear people speaking against the strike anymore. In the first few assemblies there was a number of people actually going to the mic and speaking against it, but it’s been a few weeks now that all we hear is in favor of the strike. There is a lot of arguments to go for it and little against it and those who are against are called selfish.

Obviously, the strike is continuing until next Wednesday (26th). But the good news is that I played on my ipod so much that I got to level 23! People around me were cheering every time I cleared a level!

So, well, I am quite tired of this strike. Especially because I’m in between two outcomes: the semester is canceled or we’ll stop the strike and we’ll be extremely busy until the end of April, trying to catch up in all our courses. If the semester is canceled, all the work I’ve done ahead of time will count for nothing and I would have wasted time that I could have used to get a job. That’s quite frustrating to be in the middle like that. At least I’m resting and enjoying doing the dishes, reading, working on assignments, cleaning our home, taking walks and sometimes visiting my family, but still.
