228


Today is 228 day in Taiwan, Peace Memorial Day.
Happy day off to everyone in Taiwan!!

This is too funny!

If you didn't see this on the Tonight show, I hope you're sitting down
when you read it. This is probably the funniest date story ever, first
date or not!!!
We have all had bad dates, but this takes the cake. This
just tells you how tough it is to be single nowadays. This was on the
"Tonight Show" with Jay Leno. Jay went into the audience to find the
most embarrassing first date that a woman ever had. The winner described
her worst first date experience. There was absolutely no question as to
why her tale won the prize!

She said it was midwinter... snowing and quite cold... and the guy had
taken her skiing in the mountains outside Salt Lake City, Utah. It was a
day trip (no overnight). They were strangers, after all, and truly had
never met before. The outing was fun but relatively uneventful until
they were headed home late that afternoon.

They were driving back down the mountain, when she gradually began to
realize that she should not have had that extra latte. They were about
an hour away from anywhere with a rest room and in the middle of
nowhere! Her companion suggested she try to hold it, which she did for a
while. Unfortunately, because of the heavy snow and slow going, there
came a point where she told him that he had better stop and let her go
beside the road, or it would be the front seat of his car. They stopped
and she quickly crawled out beside the car, yanked her pants down and
started. In the deep snow she didn't have good footing, so she let her
butt rest against the rear fender to steady herself. Her companion stood
on the side of the car watching for traffic and indeed was a real
gentleman and refrained from peeking. All she could think about was the
relief she felt despite the rather embarrassing nature of the situation.
Upon finishing, however, she soon became aware of another sensation. As
she bent to pull up her pants, the young lady discovered her buttocks
were firmly glued against the car's fender. Thoughts of tongues frozen
to poles immediately came to mind as she attempted to disengage her
flesh from the icy metal. It was quickly apparent that she had a brand
new problem due to the extreme cold. Horrified by her plight and yet
aware of the humor of the moment, she answered her date's concerns about
"what is taking so long" with a reply that indeed, she was "freezing her
butt off and in need of some assistance!"

He came around the car as she tried to cover herself with her sweater
and then, as she looked imploringly into his eyes, he burst out
laughing. She too, got the giggles and when they finally managed to
compose themselves, they assessed her dilemma. Obviously, as hysterical
as the situation was, they also were faced with a real problem. Both
agreed it would take something hot to free her chilly cheeks from the
grip of the icy metal! Thinking about what had gotten her into the
predicament in the first place, both quickly realized that there was
only one way to get her free. So, as she looked the other way, her
first-time date proceeded to unzip his pants and pee her butt off the
fender.

As the audience screamed in laughter, she took the Tonight Show prize
hands down... or perhaps that should be "pants down." And you thought
your first date was embarrassing.

Jay Leno's comment...
"This gives a whole new meaning to being pissed
off."

Give up?

Australia is the top one and NZ is the bottom one.
Do you see a difference, I dont see a difference, do you see a difference?

(the stars in-case you were wondering are the southern cross)

Seriously!



Okay seriously, one flag is Australia and one is New Zealand. Don't you think they would try and make their flags a little bit different from each other? And they get as upset about being called Aussie as we do being called American. Its almost too funny.
See if you can guess which one is which. Ill let you know later on.... Just to keep you guessing!

Big News!


I went to the doctors again for a check up and he said im healed! Last time i was there he said my flexability was only at 30% and now im at 100%. I still cant hyper-extend it but that will come in time, and he also said that I can start punching again soon.
Punching you ask, yes, punching. I want to do boxing with my trainer at the gym and it was the first question i asked the Doc. You should have seen his face, it was too funny. He said i should wait a couple of weeks then i can punch all I want.
only a couple of weeks left to wait...look out!

I dont think I taught it right!



Guess who....
I helped teach drawing portraits today. We all learned about drawing a head and how you place the eyes half way down and how big you’re suppose to make the mouth in comparison to the eyes etc etc.
Well Sian, a wonderful 10 year old who works hard and does a great job on everything she tries, wanted to draw moi!
So of course I let her...and only now do I regret it - Grin
What do you think, is it a true likeness? It certainly is motivation to hit the gym hard today! Ha-ha

Who needs a laugh?

You have to check this out...I was laughing so hard, because if someone planted a web cam in my room i would be caught doing the same thing. Of course not half as good as this guy.

Rugby!!


This weekend we went to a rugby game. I had a ton of fun screaming and cheering even though I had no clue what was going on. I figured out most of it while the game went on, and a few beers didn't hurt either.
I think Ill go again, we had awesome seats and they were only $17, how cheap is that?
What a fun time.

Thursday is the new Friday

Thursday, so hot, so hot right now, Thursday.
Aren't Thursdays the greatest, all day I walk around thinking tomorrow's Friday!!! I think its more exciting to be Thursday than it is to actually be Friday. The antisipation of Friday coming is just too much for me to handle - grin -

School is great, my kids are so sweet and nice and helpful, its actually a bit freaky. Ive never seen so many helpful kids, i dont have to do a thing, they run to the office to get a notice, they hand out the books, they do the marking. Im mean do i even have to be there?
I mean it, do i really have to?

Summer Break is O-V-E-R

The summer holidays finished today. I celebrated by going to get a few things I needed for school and hitting up the gym one more time in the middle of the afternoon when its not busy. Yes I am able to go to the gym again and I can’t tell you how happy that makes me, I missed all the sweating, really I did!

So tomorrow I again must grow up a wee bit and become a responsible and active member of society. The alarm clock is set for 6:30 AM and Ill have my lunch packed and ready to go by 8.... I can’t believe that these will be the hours I keep for the rest of my life, what was I thinking - grin-

Wish me luck, those 12 year olds can be rough on the new teacher, Ill let you know all about it over the next many blog entries I'm sure.

Man, I can’t wait for the next long weekend, or mini break or something (big groan)

40% and rising

I went to the doctors again today, Cristal had to drive me as I still cant move my arm well enough to drive yet. Anyway the doctor said that my arm is healing well and I have about 40% of my movement back. He said that I should be healing for about 6 weeks and then after that we’ll look into physio.

But the GREAT news is that he told me I should be using my arm as much as I can, do what I can and when it hurts, stop. That means I’m going back to the gym tomorrow, Yah! Sitting around for a whole week not doing anything has been killing me. I hate it, but now that the doc said that I shouldn’t be afraid to move around Ill be back doing everything I can. Although writing is still a big issue, I can write, but it looks like a 7 year old wrote it…I’m going to make a great impression on my students aren’t I?

Ill let you know how I’m progressing but so far I’m happier today than I have been since I broke it! Things are looking up – grin -
