Hello, Hello!
I am sorry for the delay. I was going to write a journal last Saturday but there were only 2 comments. My week was pretty boring. More of the same from last week. I will have to tell some lies (maybe).
I had an exciting event when I was contacted by the person who manages this website. As the most successful journaller on world nomads of ALL time I was asked to give my opinions on how to improve the website. I wrote an article and have been sent a World Nomads t-shirt. I was very pleased to think that my opinions will be impacting cyberspace AND the world at large.
I am going to Germany for my half term break in 4 weeks. I have gotten a very good deal whereby I fly to Germany and then have to come back through Dublin where I will stay for 1 day, and then come home for 60 pounds. ($150Au) That is pretty fantastic. I am going to Stuttgart (That may well not be how it is spelled and may just be a word that the spell check came up with when I was incoherently typing but I am sure you all know what I mean.) and will stay with a girl I met in Canada. I did not actually teach her English but met her on my New York trip. I will also spend a day or two in London before I head to Germany.
It is a nice sunny day on the island. There is actually an apple festival on this weekend that I may check out tomorrow. In the brochure it says we can have apple tasting, apple cider, apple pies and many other apple related activities. Excitement doesn’t come any bigger than this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today I am getting a hair cut. I want to get all the dyed blonde bits cut off. They are driving me mental. I was trying to look up pictures of hairstyles on the internet but the only one I could find were out of 1982. Disappointing. I am also going to be shopping for a bicycle this weekend. My only problem will be getting to the other side of the island if that is where they live. (I will buy one out of the paper).
Ummm… School is ok. My worst students have been suspended already… but they will be back. I have also joined a union which I am quite excited about. The oppressed masses rise to take over the capitalist pigs.
Did you know that the slang word for police in French is Le Poulet which means the chickens! Weird!
I have seen lots of three wheeled cars like the one in Mr Bean. I always laugh when I see them. I also got to watch Neighbours for the first time in ages. It is on at 5.00(I think) and usually I am not back from work until about 6.00. It was the one where Stingray had his screening of his film and won a prize and Karl and Susan got back together.
I though this was going to be a bit dull but it turned out to be the best entry ever! Fancy that!
