No - I haven't suddenly learnt chinese! I am sitting on a computer with lang set to chinese, and given everything is in chinese, I can't change it back to english. Well at least I can update my blog!
So I'm guessing the above sanscript is saying - Life Sux! Well that's what it would be saying if I could write the stuff. Yesterday was a vaguely productive day at work, and I managed to buy a home phone, and made myself a yummy dinner, oh and my new bed got delivered from Ikea. So it was all going well until I skipped dessert. (I had even bought a lovely little maxim cake, and delayed eating it because I was so excited about my bed.)
I spent at least 1.5 hours putting together and what do I have to show for it? The base of the bed, masses of bruises, broken nails, and a really sore knee. I should be on my way home now to finish building my bed, but I can't see it going any better tonight. I was hoping some one would suddenly be friendly at work, enquire about my life, and offer to help. As If. And I really cant 7 month pregnant Mira (and her husband is out of the country this wk!). So that leaves....well me. And only me...
Oh and the thing that really bummed me about today, was basically I got told I have got no control of the stuff that gets taught in Asia, even though I happen to be sitting with these people and could easily help them. Nope, not my job. All I do is teach what is decided in sydney, no matter how irrelevant it is to people in Asia. So today I finally remembered what life was like, before I had Chris in london. I had to call home to bitch about my day. (Rolle was terrible to bitch to) Which would be fine if I had a phone. I could really do with someone to go out for a beer or 2 with, bitch about my day and maybe even help with my bed. Unfortunately for Kevin, he arrives tomorrow. So I'm afraid he may have to help me build my bed, and listen to me bitch. And he's only here for about 30 hrs, I feel kinda mean making him work.
What else? I dunno, its all moaning and bitching. I think I'm gonna have to have some serious fast food for dinner. And polish off my dodgy chilean white I've been drinking. I can't wait til tomorrow. Between 9am and 11am, PCCW (equivalent of BT but hopefully more effecient) will be installing my broadband, cable tv and home phone. And then I should do something productive, but chances are I will be playing on the net and watching TV, and then Kevin arrives. Thankfully!
More tomorrow no doubt, when I get my broadband at home...
Oh what is "Publish Post" in chinese...bugger

well done for doing your posting on a Chinese computer - don't know if I could! Poor Kev but once the bed is done and the bitching session is over you guys can go drink and get you out there!
