Vive La France

Normally I wouldn't make a plug for something like this on my blog, but the tragedy that struck Paris is too severe to just ignore. If you can, please donate whatever you can to France's Red Cross at http://www.ifrc.org/en/get-involved/donate/

Right now as I'm talking to you, the Top of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris is the victim of a very dangerous Fire. At the center of it, there was like a tiny tower but now it's gone, taken by the flames. This is unbereable for me, even if sometimes I'm not very proud of my Country, I love it so damn much! And now, one of it main symbols is reduce to Ashes it makes me want to scream out loud

Tonight, the world rallies together. Tomorrow, we'll start pulling each other apart in search of someone to blame.

The refugee camp at Calais has already been set ablaze, and I have no doubt that will only be the beginning. We're about to see a wave of violence against Muslims, Sikhs, Syrian refugees, and just about everyone who looks brown. In all honesty, I feel powerless. I don't think there's anything I can do.

But maybe, just maybe, there's something we can do.

Hey, all. How are you all doing? Very well, I should hope.

As I'm sure you're all aware, the past few days have seen a tidal wave of bad news. New attacks in Paris, Lebanon, Irak, not sure about the last one, since that's not covered by our media. The ones in Paris are dominating the news right now, but they were spread to other parts of the world, apparently. That's local news for ya.

For the last day of our Paris holiday, we headed to Disneyland a second time to see the Walt Disney Studio park and the Disney Dreams firework display.

The studio park contains some fantastic rides, as well as a very interesting exhibition of the history of animation. And the fireworks... "spectacular" doesn't even begin to cover them.

Tomorrow, it's back to Ireland, I'm afraid. But I will definitely be returning to Paris in the future.

Just got home about half an hour ago. Too tired to say much, so I'll just say this: Beauvais Airport = worst duty-free ever.

Saw someone post this on social media.

Sounds good, right?

If only that is what he said.

There really isn't anything I can say about Disneyland that hasn't been repeated ad nauseam in the past. It really is as magical as everyone says. Also, two words... Space. Mountain.

The mood was only slightly dampened when we got back to board the RER back to Paris. A group of heavily armed soldiers were patrolling the platform -- a grim reminder that France is still very much a nation under threat.

I'd like to take a moment to pay my respects to everyone who was killed in the terror attack in Paris today. and I pray for the safety of all the hostages. You will always be in my thoughts

Lets all keep the victims of the terrorism attack that is occurring as I type in Paris in our thoughts and prayers. And pray that the remaining hostages are released alive.

For those already gone... Rest in Peace.

Sending some love...

Can't believe I haven't told you guys until now, but I'm heading to Paris with my family on the 17th to celebrate my 21st birthday! So, there may be a slow-down in activity between May 17th and 22nd, on account of me being busy sightseeing and stuff, just so you know.

To anyone affected by the bombings of Paris, you have my condolences.

Although this is a bit late, and has no relation to my fanfiction what so ever, ModMCdl, (not just me, but as a whole), would like to offer our deepest and sincere condolences for Paris, France, and all those affected by the recent tragedy there. Until 2016, the official ModMCdl website will be adorned with a banner in remembrance of all those who were killed and wounded. We send our love and our sadness.

One would think people got used to hearing ISIS doing this or that, but no - ISIS just has to pull off some very bad stunt!

At least politicians express some solidarity, as far as I know.

High on emotions, I have made a primitive poster calling for major power players to unite, for real, and destroy these terrorists, and uploaded it to my DeviantArt account. FIMFiction refuses to process the image for some reason, so here is a link:

I have news regarding my newest story with S1 Princess Luna.

I don't know if I'll be able to continue it during this week, as we'll be doing a trip to France, starting today!

Most likely, I'll be offline until next Friday. But don't worry, the story will continue.

So, without further ado, see you all on Friday!

My dear friends,

Today, something horrible happened. Something that goes beyond words, something that causes the breath to catch, blood to run cold, and hearts to stand still. Today, the city of Paris, the Capital of France, was attacked by terrorists of the most foul kind.

They have killed many, and I fear before this darkest of nights is over, they will have killed more.

First the ISIS attacks, then the major flooding.

How do you feel?
