Class - Jennifer HeilJennifer Heil, started skiing when she was two years old, growing up originally in Spruce Grove, Alberta. Since the age of two, Jennifer worked on her skills, giving hundreds upon hundreds of hours of her personal life towards her skills as a freestyle mogul skier, overcoming injuries, participating in her first Olympics at 18 years of age. In 2006, she won a gold medal at Turin, and this week, earned a silver medal in Vancouver.
In addition to devoting most of her young life to the development of her skills as a world champion mogul skier, in her spare time, Jennifer manages to attend the Management Studies program at McGill University, and also gives time to the Charities, Right to Plan and Because I'm A Girl.
Right to Play is a charity that seeks "To improve the lives of children in some of the most disadvantaged areas of the world by using the power of sport and play for development, health and peace", reaching out to children all over the world - including children in war torn Palestinian communities.
Because I'm a Girl is a charity seeking to empower young girls all over the world - their theory being that "The best results happen when people living in poverty use their own ideas, talents and energy to make lives better for themselves and their communities. Plan supports children and youth to get involved and help make their communities a better, safer place for them, their friends and families."
Pretty busy woman.
Now. On to Classless.
Classless - Willow Violet Louise Riley
Saving the poor.. one vodka slammer at a time..
Arrested as part of the Olympic protests, for assaulting a police officer, was this lovely peace of work, Willow Violet Louise Riley. What is her background? Well, we don't really know - the only public information is, apparently, on her lovely, which, because it really exposes her as the poser that she is, I linked to it here.
While we don't know much about her, and her pals, I'm guessing her bio is something like:
I stopped trying to compete with other kids in athletics, because, well, that's work, and I would rather criticize than create. So, my fellow losers and I make fun of athletes, and as we "mature" (word used very loosely) we "protest" against things like the Olympics because, well, they sort of magnify the useless pieces of work that we truly are. I mean, stand me next to Jennifer Heil, and, you get my drift.
Of course, to give myself a thin (very thin) veneer of mattering, I'll join my friends in an "anti-poverty" rally, though, really, the bottom line is that those dirty capitalists that I despise, do more for the poor and impoverished in a day than I'll probably do in my lifetime. I mean, actually volunterring to help the disadvantaged in a positive way is, well, just so much like work.
Oh, and when no one wants to pay attention to this little charade, well, me and my pals will through some mailboxes through windows and assault police officers in some childish tantrum to further exemplify why, really, no one SHOULD pay any attention to us."I guess THAT's what they mean about creating a classless society.
