Went all the way up the mountain and down and then turned around and hit the mountain again. In other news, is this Pat Robertson fool for real? What is even sadder is that there are millions of ( Read more... )

Well my journal is turning to be more of an account of what I did during the weekend and what I learnt/experienced so here goes … I actually got a chance to do something during the week. I went go-kart racing on Tuesday and I got back home with a couple of blisters on my hands (I did 15 half mile laps packed with turns in a manual steering so don't ( Read more... )

This week was the same as usual. Work work work. I slept late on Friday (see Sat. morning 5AM) watching 24! Saturday was the highlight of my week! I had been talking to some dude over the week and we were talking about why South America and Africa never developed like the other places did and he told me about a really interesting book called "Guns ( Read more... )

Been working a lot over the past couple of days. I get to hang out with big sis this weekend up in the Rosa. Happy for her that she finally got a replacement car. Been an interesting week, got to hook up with a bunch of friends from high school that I met on graduates.com. Was very excited to talk to some of them after all this time. Been a good ( Read more... )
