I found Rihanna!

I found a historical journal of someone in the Russian Revolution.
I found that many of the events that occurred in the old times, actually occurred in our current revolution.
For example, both of our revolutions involved leaders and began with some type of protest.
I think the biggest difference is that our leader, Mubarak, was more of a dictator to us and we wanted him out while during the Russian Revolution, their leader abdicated his thrown. As soon as another leader showed up, things became worse, which is somewhat similar to us.
I wish I could ask Rihanna what happened with her children and her family?
I wish I knew that we as people could vote for our leader.

Still Standing.

I'm back with another update;
This revolution is still standing. It's becoming a civil war.
Now that Mubarak has resigned on the 18th day of protest, the military is currently in power.
Since the Muslims are in charge, many Christians are getting angry and burning down churches, starting fights, bombing, and don't feel like the government is fair. The Muslim Brotherhood and other protesters believe that Mubarak still has people running the government his way, and that he basically still controls Egypt. Everyone who isn't in that "Brotherhood" is ignored and categorized as "the rest."
This revolution won't end any time soon because the people have not gotten what they wanted.
We need a new government because right now, things are worse then when we started.
We are all glad that Mubarak is out of power and he isn't physically here anymore, but his thoughts, ideas, and rules still linger.
Now that we're almost in a civil war, what could happen next?
'till next time, Chris Brown.

The End Of It All

Hello Again,
The revolution has finally come to an end.
Because the U.S. and other countries invaded Germany.
The reason for the revolution was achieved because we got what we were fighting for.
Our resistance made a difference because we wanted some type of change, and since we fought for it, there really was a difference. It may not have gone according to plan and many people died, but they died in honor of our rights and what we believe in.
Once the tsar abdicated his thrown, and his son would not take power, the people were satisfied. Everyone stopped their protest which began the revolution in the first place. Now we have a better government, more peace, and our thoughts were listened to.
Though Stalin eventually died of a stroke, he was partly the reason that the revolution was still going.
People loved him and did not believe that he could be such a cruel leader. But, he eventually killed people who disagreed with his harsh rule, and even those we honored him because he was so paranoid that he would lose his power.
Now that the Russian Revolution is over and you heard the truth from me, an actual person who survived, you are well informed of the truth.

Egypt's Revolution

I discovered an internet campaign today.
Thousands and thousands of people joined in.
All of those people came together in an attempt to protest against the poverty, corruption, and unemployment in our cities.
After a while, I felt the need to come out and protest with my people because I felt strongly about the statement they were making.
I mean, I wish we had a better economy and things were better for us.
Mubarak became a tyrant to us; we as his people needed to make some type of statement to him directly that we were sick of this.
All the police started coming after us and trying to kill us or hurt us and our families.
Thankfully, they realized that it was against the law to come after us the way they did.

I'm just glad we can make such an impact when we all come together.
Until we meet again- Chris Brown.

It's our relovution.

Me, as a house wife in Russia, makes me feel sad because I have to clean and cook and my kids have to work on the farm to make crops.
Yesterday, I saw 70,000 people being taken away to concentration camps.
The people were shooting outside and I almost couldn't believe my eyes.
I had to take the time to write and create posters for the protests even though I had so much to do around the house. I need to take care of my kids. It was worth it because now at least people would know the truth and try to help us.
I some how felt confident that our voices, as women, would be heard because of the protests.
The next morning when I woke up, it was so early the sun had barely come out yet but there were still women camped out front and the rallies had already begun.

At least now, I don't just have to sit here. I can do something to make a change.
Informed again, from Rihanna.

Resistance Movement

The resistance all began with a protest,
because churches were being bombed and set on fire, people killing and dying and everything was changing; people did not like where things were headed.
The army finally realized that they can't hurt us citizens, though.
Huge rallies have been breaking out throughout the cities all around us.
The protest leaders created, "The March Of A Million" hoping Mubarak would stand down.
Mubarak decided to give us a curfew because of it, too.
It was the law to be home early and I think it's because he didn't want us to try and make a huge revolution over the way things shouldn't have been.
The anti-government protesters are beginning to fight the loyalists, the ones who want Mubarak to stay in power; The people who love Mubarak.
Sincerely, Chris Brown.

It Was Only The Beginning.

It all started with Communism.
Everyone thought they wanted to be equal, but when it finally became a reality, no one really wanted it.

I was at home with my family when I heard the women screaming outside.
All of them wanted one thing; they wanted their rights.
Women were outside fighting for rights when Tsar Nicholas II wouldn't except it. He sent soldiers.

Tons on them,
to stop the women.

What ended up happening was that they joined the women because they wanted their rights too.
So soon enough, Tsar Nicholas II eventually abdicated his thrown as if he gave up.
I believe that us, women, won't ever really get rights because men treat us like we're only good for a few things.
Things I won't mention.
Things I don't like to think about.
Everyone around here is pretty much going insane. They all worry what will happen, but I'm just waiting to see.
All I know is that tomorrow is never guaranteed. 
Until the next blog.

It was time to make a change.

The reason for my writing is that I believe it's time for a change. I've never written a journal before but Egypt is going through rough times that require media attention in order for the change.
My name is Brown; Chris Brown, to be exact.
I am an upper class, college graduate. I am a leader in this society because I came a judge to make a difference.
But for now, I believe that Egypt itself deserves a different leader; one who will not dictate.
The lower class, (which is everyone but our tsarist government), is being exploited by the upper class (no one but our tsarist government).


For now, this is all.

Rihanna; New to Revolution

I began to write this journal in order to keep track of the current events of the Russian Revolution, just in case some one is to find this journal and would like the truth.
My name is Rihanna and I am a peasant that works in the field with my family, and that will be the perspective you will learn about.
Our family is extremely poor and we live in harsh conditions with many other people.
Since so many people are out of jobs, we need to try very hard to maintain what we do have, and keep our family together.

That was just a tad about me, and in my next entry I will explain more about what I go through, daily.
