we’re off to see the wizard



so, next week, around this time, i will be at another training session. [this must be my lucky year!] this time, they are gonna tell all of us attending how to be seniors. should be interesting. as always, im looking forward to the social aspects this will entail. i also hope to go out at least one night. havnt experienced Bloem much as of yet.

usually, the most training any given person in this field will get, happens during said person’s first year. im in my 2nd. so, i feel fortunate to be on training every other week, coz it means less actual work and more play.

huzzah for socialising!

on the downside, the people who will be attending the training with me are, for the most part, anti-social-stay-in-my-room-and-keep-to-myself-coz-ive-got-better-things-to-do kinda people. now, this may put a damper on things, but i dont expect this will keep me from enjoying myself overmuch.

oh, i got promoted yesterday. that’s an extra R100 a month. aw, thanks guys. ya shudnt have... and i was so hoping theyd double my monthly pittance. *sigh* maybe next year, am i right?

this will probably be my last training session for the year, as i am unaware of any others that may have been scheduled. so, friends and neighbours, for the last time, like you mean it:

THREE CHEERS FOR TRAINING!!

*hip hip huzzah!*

G'day mate!

Death is visiting yer humble abode twice upon one day! Ye must be honoured? Scared? Luckily this is pleasure not business!

MWOAHAHAAA!

Training is good! People should not be dumb. Dumb is baaaad!

I'm dumb therefore I'm bad, but everybody knows that death is not good its bad?!

Thanks for referring to me as a boring anti-social person who will be joining the training in Bloem! Now I shall stay in my room and only study for the numerous amount of questions that will be thrown my way! Isn't wyrd how many questions I get asked each training session? Is it the way I look? Can they see the expression of I don't really give a flying **** about what they are trying to teach us and therefore they try to punish me by asking stupid questions?!?!?!

I hate training! I hate it I say!!!

Only good thing 'bout this road trip is the 5ours of non stop music as I drive to Bloem! Sorry for the poor bastard who have to share my bakkie (Pick-up for our US friends)! Don't know of any body who likes Trivium, Road runner united and the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse in our posse! Shame you couldn't drive with me Neko!

Tot later dan! Laat ek werk voor ek gefire word!

Pynappels!
Death

death, compadre!

1) you are *not* australian.

2) and i think you know this, i wasnt talking about you, or thinking bout you when i speculated about the boring people.

3) aye, it is a shame that i will not be accompanying you as we rock our way to bloem, alas! my fiery chariot must undertake this virgin voyage and prove to the world that it is the lil car that *could*

4) i believe training is the lesser of two evils. i hate it less than i hate work..

Found this little gem while listening to music while number crunshing (Hoe ever mens dit spel!):

Nonpoint - Endure

Even with a diagram of
My DNA I leave scientists baffled 'till the end of the day they try to pick apart
My life-style and how I survive making money for the boss
while I make nickel and dime, and being on time takin' a punch and doin'
My best, not ever hearing good job
and staying upset it doesn't take to much to find the sediments they left behind.
Put down the book put up the walls I'm never givin' up at all
what's yours is yours, what's
Mine is yours and I'll mature.
Endure.
Not even with ten men holding
Me back not even with a devious planned attack contemplating
every move that I play willing the bad things all away keeping
the worry-free happiness philosophy that's what I let them see
when they try to look at Me.
Don't want out.
These issues arise everyday,
though you try to turn your head and walk away,
though it leaves you feeling insecure you're gonna feel your life mature.
Endure

Training must be better than getting beaten about the head with a sock full of hornets and explosives. At least I hope so.
