I feel pregnant TT.TT

I just got back from this place (I don't even know where it is) but we lived (survived) there for three days, and got like, totally ripped off. And I'm not just saying that because I'm tight, but because it was suposed to be four-and-a-half stars and it turned out to be the puniest cabin that was the size of geo camp cabin and me and my sister had to sleep on the couch!

PRO: Since everything was already filthy and covered in dust we decided to compensate by letting the dog sleep in bed with us even though she went swimming in the river and even though it said "NO DOGS ALLOWED ON BED OR COUCH". Serves them right. Dude. When I crawled into bed/couch there was sand all over it.

This morning when we'd been driving out of the place for more than an hour my dad realized that he'd left his mass storage thing with all the movies on it on the TV. So the parents decided to drive back to get it whilst leaving us and the dog in this town called "Stroud" with a population of 500 and 3 shops... something like that. The only shop that had cool/interesting stuff was this handmade/antique place where the cheapest thing was like 10 dollars.

I reckon they'd be lucky if they sold one thing a day.

Which made me think about all the places I've been to where the price is 10 times more expensive than what they're worth. It's just silly- if they WANT their business to go well, shouldn't they make things cheaper? If they want to help defeat the global recession, shouldn't they lower the prices to increase spenditure instead of scaring everyone away? Honestly.

The funniest bit of the past three days was watching the dog getting owned by a herd of cattle. ROFL! If my dad got it on camera I'll post it up here soon.

Wow. Everybody is blogging about deep and intellectual things these days, and I must say, George: You must be very screwed in the brain for thinking you should only do 2 unit English.

I remember when we used to not blog about anything except what happened during our days, which was pretty funny. I'd like to remind everyone that yes, we've gotten a lot more mature etcetc, but don't forget that blogging about what's been happening in your life is still legal, because if everyone only blogged about deep and meaningful life issues then soon we'll run out of deep and meaningful life issues to blog about and we'll be out of business.



You all heared the thing about the Epping Newsagency thing right?

I can't fucking believe that there are people in the world who would do something so heartless. In my opinion him and his gang deserve death of the worst kind, and I'm not just making things melodramatic to suit the circumstance. Watching the news was so deeply disturbing, I wanted to puke. I mean. imagine you were the 15 year old girl who came home to be told that her whole family was bashed to death. If it was me, I'd wish I was one of them. And what about the grandparents in China. I can just imagine the scenario being explained to a frail couple who can barely understand English all in a single phonecall: "I'm sorry but your son, daughter-in-law and your two grandsons were found dead this morning".

Bad things happen, and they're happening all around us, and all the time. At times it's so close to us that it seems unimagineable. It's not always rainbows and butterflies, it's compromise that moves us along.


RIP Mr Lin and family. Thanks for delivering all our newspapers.
