Little know facts about me!

1. I have 79 days left in Argentina
2. I can crash dive ball-out
3. 5 days till my exam... and I still know nothing!
4. I am 1/2 french, 15/32 english and 1/32 spanish
5. I am qualified to teach gymnastics, trampolining and swimming at various levels
6. I don't like management very much (yet I am studying it)
7. I can count to ten in english, french, spanish, german and japanese (aren't you impressed!)

Thats all I can think of for the moment! Will go do some more of my reading now!

Honey, its cold out there!

I was lying in bed yesterday, and i had the most brilliant idea for a post. I had even thought about how I would start it. Much to my dismay, i can't remember for the life of me what I was going to write about! Oh well, its can't have been that interesting then can it! Hehe

I just watched the saddest film, I was crying like a baby all the way through it. (Sarah wasn't even vaguely sympathetic!) It was about a lady with a terminal illness and her fight to have assisted suicide legalised in Canada. It must be so hard to be in a situation like that, not only for the patient, but also for the family. I can't even begin to imagine it. I don't want to go into a long rambling post about palliative care, passive and active euthanasia so I will leave it at that.

I have an exam in less than a week, and I have not done have the reading I am meant to have! Oops... I should be doing it now! Have any of you noticed that my blogging rate increases significantly when I have coursework to hand in, or an exam coming up?! I'm not avoiding anything, really! I will read a couple of chapters in a sec. i read 4.5 last night, and 2 on Saturday, so I am getting through the material little by little. Go me!

Its getting cold here, booooo. I liked Buenos Aires better when it was hot! Not only is it cold, but the mosquitoes seem to have developed resistance to the dropping temperatures and are still buzzing around. Horrible things. They seem to particularly enjoy my blood... I always get bitten at least twice as much as anyone else. How is this fair?! Maybe I am just sweeter than the rest :-)

I may do my reading tomorrow morning instead... ie. get up at 6am or so and read for a couple of hours then. It will be quiet at least. The only problem is that when i use this strategy I tend to add 30 mins repeatedly to my alarm clock until I wake up at the normal time anyway! :-S

Full stops.

Politics and strategy of businesses. More interesting than it sounds. No, really. Looking at how people think and behave. What they consider important for the growth of a company. Analyse the lot, and come up with a strategy. Simple.

Unfortunately exams coming up. Bother, have yet to read books. Nothing different there then... Happens every term. One week to learn it all, typical. Will manage, always do.

Have work as well. All going well. Organising golf tournament at the moment. Not totally sure what I am doing, but who does? They all seem to think I do. Too many people in office for resources. Not enough computers. Lots of time lost. Wasted. Lose work flow. Never mind.

Friend to visit. One day soon. Coming from Uruguay. Keeps putting it off. Has too much work. Annoying! I want to see him! Nothing I can do. Waiting.

Life good. Generally. Lots of friends. Will miss them when back. Time flies. 3 months left... Too little, don't want to leave! Did England change as I did? I think not.

2 dollars to the pound. High purchasing power. Good for shopping :-) Bad for luggage allowance. Problem!

Enough for now. Bye bye.
