Ok I just read your old post tonight Cath whilst you are at the Fiddler enjoying yourself with many-a-drink. Sadly I am confined to the house tonight because I finished work too late and couldnt go out. I was suppose to go fiddler also. I could have met this damien character you mention in your post lol. Kidding, I know he is your better half ; )

We made it! Oh what a feeling, TOYOTA!
It was a good year completing this unit and was a pleasure getting to know you all. I had a few people doubting whether I would make it through the semester because I had last year off to work. They thought I might bail out and go back to the $$$. However I didn't have doubts and that's the main thing. My week ( Read more... )

Untitled

I caught a snowflake in my hand
And watched it slowly melt
Then caught the eyes of a strange man
Who watched me by himself

I guess I seemed strange to the strange man
Who was starring in a daze
Why is he starring at his hand?
A question he might raise

The snowflake took some time to thaw
About four to five minutes
That is a length to ( Read more... )

My Dad, brothers and I all chipped in and paid for the Mundine Vs Green fight tonight on FOXTEL. We are currently watching the undercard fights and let me tell you, "wooooof!" Seriously how some of these blokes were cleared to get in the ring bewilders us. The undercard fights are totally outweighed. In every fight, one fighter is good and one ( Read more... )

Yeah I agree with what you said about "The Garden". I may have taken the piss out "The Garden" and Andrew Marvell in my review but i wanted to show a totally different way that one could look at what Marvell wrote.

I do believe that we all have our own "place" that we go to clear our thoughts. I don't believe my place is my garden, but it might be ( Read more... )

So Gardens are a place where we can go to relax our souls? Hmmm. I have a problem with this line of thought. Andrew Marvell has obviously never visited the garden of a contemporary household before. Gardens can be alot of work. Alot of work! The resting of one's soul will only take place after their back cramps up so bad from pruning weeds that ( Read more... )

WHY ISN'T GAMBIT IN THE FIRST TWO X MEN MOVIES? HE IS BY FAR THE FUNNIEST IN THE COMICS AND CARTOON. INSTEAD, THEY GAVE HIS SARCASTIC HUMOUR TO WOLVERINE WHO IS MORE OF A ROID-RAGING MANIAC WHO JUST WANTS TO KICK ARSE (I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST THOSE QUALITIES BY THE WAY). I WAS PRETTY BOTHERED BY THE EXCLUSION OF GAMBIT. IS IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T RATE ( Read more... )

Reading the work of AEMILIA LANYER (Eve's Apology in Defense of Women) outside was a noble attempt to help her writing sink in more. That was the intention of being outside right? Well...i don't know if it exactly worked for everyone concerned. I didn't particularly mind being outside except for the fact that we were facing up the hill instead of ( Read more... )

Yo Fadia,

I agree with what you are saying about The Tempest. A little hard to swallow right? I was actually suprised that Shakespeare ended his career with a play that involved 'magic'. I understand however that he was using the play as a comparison to his own life in some respects.

My favourite Shakespeare play is probably Macbeth. I know some ( Read more... )

Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still

I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down ( Read more... )
