    Nope, today. I usually do something, even if it's just rattling a tin for THT in the city, but made plans for tonight.

    My musical hero died of an infection due to AIDs, I shall light a candle later for all the sufferers.

    They were selling ribbons today in our union.

    I had no cash on me.

    I felt well tight when they tried to get me to buy one and I had to say no thanks.

    I hav my red ribbon and I used to always do stuff for it when I was in school ..... which was a hell of a long time ago. Anyhoo, is the point of the day to raise awareness about AIDS and sufferers and stuff? People are even aware about the day itself so it's hardly the most successful campaign is it!!

    When I was at school we found a box containing the AIDS ribbons and we nicked them and sold them all round the village, I made about £30. What a cunt eh?

    I've always felt guilty about it until a few months ago when somebody was collecting for an AIDS charity in town - I bunged them £30. :D

    Haha done a few shenanigans like that myself in my younger days.

    Fuck it's a terrible disease, hopefully they'll find a cure soon enough.

    I do too, and just because I make a joke on here doesnt mean I dont give a shit about AIDS, and even if I did, I doubt I would lose my sense of humour.

    I had quite a good night of events at my SU. We're not the greatest for campaigning but I think we made some money, and that's what matters.
