Late night fun stuff
I just thought I'd link this article I found amusing :D
Man Hurt By Falling Saint Bernard
Hmm.. I can just imagine the psychological Trauma... poor man will be forever looking to the skies, wondering when the next canine will come hurtling toward him.
Brings a new meaning to the phrase 'raining cats and dogs'.

Reflecting
Or is it Procrastinating more?
hehe.
So as a part of my procrastination this evening I had a read through my blog from July 2005. It seems hard to believe that it was a year ago, and that I can remember events so clearly! I find that as im getting older (and i am! :'() the more i can remember about the previous years.
I mean, when i was in my teens, to remember back a year ago - that was a blur. The older i get the more recall i have! unfortunately, you gotta take the good with the bad! and there was plenty of both.
I like the fact that my blog is accomplishing in some small way what I set out to do. But I realise that if i wish to continue this vain effort, then I must post more :D so, Godwilling, hope to see much more posting happening in here!
I think one of the main reasons im not posting anywhere NEAR as much as I used to (aside from being flat out at the moment) Is because I email the Beautiful Laura with that information every day or so! and honestly, who wants to type their day out twice! ^_^
BUT rest assured, loyal readers (or loyal dupes... whichever grabs you more) That I will begin to post more frequently! I mean come on! 2 posts in a day already! and I will try to get up my comments on my cousins across the wave's blogs too :D Im coming for you guys! Its been a long long while! and I apologise for my absence! but ... im SO back into the blogging scene! ^_^
SAM is back... to stay!

True Procrastination
Hi all! Ive got A SOSE Unit and a History Unit due next week, a music teaching assessment due on Thursday, an Education Pamplet due on Friday next, I have to go to centrelink today (which i forgot) and yes! well, im having fun as you can see :D
I HATE NO HOLIDAYS ! :P
honestly. they say they are aware of how much of a workload we have? hm... perhaps give us more than ONE week of holiday before throwing us back in for 5 weeks of absolute hell? (followed by 7 weeks of prac, one of holiday and 5 weeks of lectures and assignments again!) Sigh.
enough bitching. Ive gotta save some for the actual lectures! ^_^
Sigh. so much crap to do... Im over it. sooooo tired. need caffiene. need sugar... mmm... sugar... oh yeh, havnet been to the gym this week! mwahahahhaaaa!
I really dont have anything to talk abotu at the moment! just a generalised update to fascinate you all! is it working?
So how are you all eh? My commenters have been slacking recently. dont make me beat you with your own skull (which, isnt physically possible - so they say!) start commenting :D

Don't stop thinkin about tomorrow...
Well, after the slight downward nature of the last post, I am happy to report that I am as normal as I ever am! And also back on the road that leads to angst! Its long, its windy, but there are free rest stops along the way that serve tea. Huzzah.
So yes. What to post about. Im just about to start up uni again for the next four weeks and have a crapload of work to do there. Boys Brigade Sunday School and Youth are going to restart next week so more work there. Youth is extra work because of the crap thats gone down in our church. Planning to do Amus before middle of next year, so need to get back into piano practicing. Prac is going to start up again for another seven weeks soon, Im back to the same place as before (Only this time teaching SOSE History). Don't forget though, about work at the comic store!
"Work Work Work" as those peons from Warcraft say. But hey. I could have it much worse! I could have a girlfriend in another country! oh.
oh yeh.
Well on that brightening note, let me throw out my other worry! Im also planning a trip overseas for a month at the end of the year to Greece/France/Egypt with Laura. I really sound ungrateful don't I! "geez this Sam has it tough! A Great job, Lots of Friends, Trip overseas, a girlfriend." So yeh, i do really thank God for my blessings. of which there are many!
But lately im just feeling drained all the time. I get moments where i feel i can take over the world (oh it WILL happen) and then moments when i realise just how far i yet have to go. (Im only on phase 3!!) Where i can see all my failings so clearly. (Its so hard to find good underlings these days!) Where i can see just how dangerous a path im heading out on. (look, i probably should have taken that left turn at Albequerque.)
In other words, Im letting my clost emo out. :P dont worry. hopefull I'll beat him (with a stick or something) and send him packing!
For anyone who's ever had a long distance relationship... how did it turn out? And Why do i feel like im letting myself be suckered in sometimes. Why do i feel like an idiot for doing this when I only went out with her for two months before she went overseas?
Sigh. Will Sam ever learn?
Probably! But there are always new lessons!
Ah well. I like learning anyway!
Did I say i was thinking of teaching for maybe 1-2 years in the UK starting Mid 2007? Well, thats looking like the plan at the moment :D so prayers it all goes smoothly and I can pass my course and actually get into teaching, not feeling inadequate as I did when the muso's gathered on Friday. I dont know what it is about them. Sometimes when im around those guys I just feel so...ill prepared... unskilled. I dont know!
Sigh. Welcome to humanity Sam! Live with it! ...or wipe them out. I know which option im leaning to! heh ^_^
Nah, Im being melodramatic I think! I am really lucky to have what I have when so many others cope with so little. I refuse to let myself slide into that sort of thinking (ie... almost the entirity of this blog). Self destructive crap! and so egocentric!
Needed to vent somewhere sorry! next post wont make nearly so much sense! :D
Hope anyone who reads this is having a great day!
Take care!
