9:37 PM “Is it a bird? Is it a plane? NO! It is H.D. Archibald, back from the past coming to a blog spot near you.”

-By Tania Pehl

H.D Arch flabbergasted at how culture has changed, referring directly to the environment on Rhodes University, in which he is stuck for eternity, is amused at the culture of the students. For example, despite the amazing diversity, the white elephant sitting in the room is left unnoticed. However, the characters that this university has produced is shocking to H.D. system as he is not accustomed to absurd “Marish” life these animals seem to play. The bowl surely does make an environment for wonders beyond your comprehension. As having died a tragic death, I, H.D Arch have to do the one thing I left the world doing… capturing the world and sharing my thoughts and opinions in this new age of popular culture and technology. Also it is a way for me to reconcile my out-dated lifestyle and adjustment to modern South Africa. It is important to call serious issues out while giving readers some tongue-in-cheek dialogue to poke fun of the serious issues that make us take life so seriously. I am a bit of a sarcastic fellow myself… teenagers of today scare me… while the sheep play in the field, we have come to just accept what we are told by those controlling our country. How can we not be sure, aliens will not abduct us tomorrow, yet we know they exist, but they will not tell us the truth? It is way for students like me, despite the age gap to discuss serious issues while still leaving space to enjoy the mishaps of the people around us. My tragic death was a huge freak accident and I wish I had not forgotten to cut down that random piece of string on the ceiling… my fiddle career was really kicking off. I was hoping to play at Barack Obama’s inauguration, how did the Americans pull that one off! A black president… I do not care what form I have come back as but this life seems it will be quite interesting, I would never have thought it. But wait, they comparing him to Nelson Mandela… hmm? Sorry Barack I do not quite understand how that works… what impact has he made if he has just been nominate into office, instant fame. WOW! Please would someone give me the formula for that? Journalism is important as it allows us to discuss these issues weather offensive to another or not… I am just calling it out, are you?
