Catch up 21st Nov-6 Dec

Hey all,

For the first time on the 21st I had to watch students writing exam, it was a very weird feeling, you know watching not writing. Anyway it went okay but long (3 hours). 22nd went to collect my new glasses-they are so divine, I love them… 23rd Watched “Missing” and worked nothing much else.
Friday the 24th went to the Mall to start Christmas shopping with my mom –what a mission it seems everyone had the same idea we had. 25th went to work with my mom just to read, chill and enjoy the silence a bit.
Finished “Esther”. Watched “3rd Watch” on ETV. Sunday the 26th just watched “Numb3rs”, chilled at home, chatted to family, slept and read.

27th just work, work and so more work. As it nears the end of the year and also the beginning of the next year-things tend to speed of up. On the 28th went out to supper for the closing of the year 4 a course that I had been on this year. They had decorated everything so beautifully.
We had a really nice time. The 29th worked then went to the shop with a friend, then we decided to watch a movie-“Friends with Money” with Jennifer Aniston. Had supper with the my friends and then went home.

The 30th WOW the end of the month already! Just worked then went home. Then naturally comes Dec 1st worked ‘til about 2:15 PM then had to go fetch my sister as she was sick and couldn’t get home. Mom was working- didn’t know how to get there in the first place and my dad was to far anyway so was just better for me to go and get her to take her home. Later went to the Mall to do some more Christmas shopping-Wow it’s crazy at the mall at this time of year.
The 2nd watched Shania Twain’s DVD (Concert) called “Up” The my dad’s friend come to see us.

Watched “3rd Watch” –ETV and “Touching the Void” which was sort of like “Vertical Limit” without the actors obviously and “Touching …” was a true story.
The 3rd watched “Airforce 1” and “Hollywood Homicide”, chilled at home because it was very, very hot and then went to Christmas concert with our Church-was so beautiful, enjoyed it a lot except for the heat.
Then came home and watched “Numb3rs”.
4th just worked rite through ‘til I left after 4pm. Watched “Prison Break” & “3rd Watch” –Series Channel (DSTV). Then crashed. 5th Worked and worked so more and then after went to go and see my aunt to catch up. Dec 6th worked and then went home 2 watch “Blind Justice”-SABC2.

Will write more later

PS: SOME FUN STUFF FOR YOU

George Carlin's view on agingDo you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions."How old are you?" "I'm four and a half!" You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going on five!

That's the key.You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead."How old are you?" "I'm gonna be 16!" You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16!
And then the greatest day of your life . . . You become 21.
Even the words sound like a ceremony . . YOU BECOME 21. YESSSS!!!But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk! He TURNED; we had to throw him out.
There's no fun now, you're Just a sour-dumpling. What's wrong? What's changed?
You BECOME 21, you TURN 30 , then you're PUSHING 40.
W! hoa! Put on the brakes, it's all slipping away.
Before you know it, you REACH 50And your dreams are gone.But wait!!! You MAKE it to 60. You didn't think you would!So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE it to 60.
You've built up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that it's a day-by-day thing; you HIT Wednesday!
You get into your 80's and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; you TURN 4:30 ; you REACH bedtime. And it doesn't end there. Into the 90's, you start going backwards; "I Was JUST 92."Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again. "I'm 100 and a half!" May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!
