I've lived that life and made it to 27... you merely lack ambition. Who wants to be 30? And we can put something cool on your headstone about drunken debauchery leaving a well preserved corpse...

I called the folks yesterday and found out a highschool classmate had passed away last week, he was 46 and had a fatal heart attack. I went to work this morning and noticed a co-worker was crying, I asked her why and she told me Willy, who worked on the graveyard shift, had passed away last night. Willy was also a highschool classmate of mine, he also had a fatal heart attack. I had been worried about him because in addition to his job as QA(quality assurance) lead, he also had a job in the meat department at a local supermarket. I guess I was right to worry, turns out Willy is not only leaving his wife and three daughters, his wife is due sometime in January.

Live like there is no tomorrow, you never know when that will happen.

::hugs Tamyra:: I'm sorry about your classmate! It's only been 8 years since my graduation, and already there are a bunch of gravestones in the local cemetery with names from my high school album :?

I live like there's no today. Does that count?

Hi there. Anyone missed me? Still don't have easy access to internet yet. What a shame, and totally frustrating!

The fule fire really is horrible, allthough i havent seen anything about it in our news. As if that wasnt enought, we (in Souh Africa and Namibia) have been having fule shortage problems for the last 2 weeks. We (my parents and i ) nearly did not make it home. The fuel tanker is scedualed to arrive today with our fuel, a whole week late!

I'll be seing you more regularly in february when i will have access to fast and "free" int access. All of you, have a great holiday and a Merry Chrismass, also a happy new year (please don't get too pissed).

Cheerio.

Hi Smoking_GNU. Happy holidays!

I just moved out. I now have a house!
It's very cool and I'll try to get some pictures online when I've really settled.

Who, me ? no. Course not.






What d'you think, once I've tied him up with the hoover lead and tickled his feet with the broom, what do I make him sign, terry or sean ?

Well, Year 9 is officially over. Yay!

Got my report back today, which was so much better than I expected! Got a letter of excellence... because I got higher than Band 5 in every subject and got Band 6 in 50% of them. Yes, I'm feeling rather pleased with myself. I didn't even fail Music!

So now its the holidays... time to get back to normal sleeping patterns. So happy.

I am rounding up the inventory and it's the mother of all inventories. I have half a mind of taking the Excel sheets, stuff them in Powerpoint and add Christmas lights next to every drug that expires on a December.

Well, not really.

I was supposed to move out tomorrow and head back home, but my dad fell ill with the flu and he cannot come. So, I may take the equipment and drugs back to the health centre on Monday, load the car and leave on Tuesday and drop off to Amfissa on my way back and sort out tha paperwork, while fervently hoping I am not shut off by the snow.

in India....about to leave for canada...

I dont even want to think of the flight...9 hours to london and a bunch more to canada (it claims 8 but i seem to remember it being 6 from glasgow so i dont know what thats about)

Anyway, im listening to lots pf fireworks and sitting a little bored with no one in the country to speak to (except the oddities next door)

So now i shall go catch a flight and hope everyone has a good holiday themselves where ever you are
