Thank you

Monday, April 24th, 2006

Tommorrow is ANZAC Day. It is a national holiday, honouring all our fallen soliders in all wars. The name ANZAC (Australian New Zealand Army Corps) came from Australia’s unsucessful attempt to conquer part of Turkey in World War 1. Stupid british sent us in to die, we managed to get out with no casulities though. People were fighting less that 2 metres apart for around ages, they could throw packets of cigarettes over the trenches! It has been said that 2 “personalities” were born at that battle ground, the Australian and Turkish.
I just wanted to say, Thank-you to everyone that has fought for what i have today, and what my kids will have in the future. I know it is a cliche, but they died for my freedom. So this goes out to all that are no longer with us, and those that are. Including the sometimes forgotten Vietnam Vets. Thank-you.

One year on

Thursday, April 20th, 2006

Well it has been one year since i started this wonderful blog. i have learnt lots, and been greatful for all the comments that people write. I’ve had arguments, rants, opinions, and all manner of other stuff said on here in the last year. Its been great. Hopefully i can keep it up, i know that i want to. Just have to find my spark for writing again. Please keep the comments coming, i love them.
Its funny looking back at what you used to write. It feels sort of like going back in your childhood and reminiscing about events. I started out writing about fat people and then moved on to the Americian scene, even though i really don’t have a clue about it at all. I guess i have layed off that opinionated kind of stuff lately, not sure why either. Oh well, im hopefully going to be able to get a new theme up soon, so it will be a kind of a birthday present for the site! Hurray!

Long time

Friday, April 14th, 2006

Well i have not written for a while, been a busy little bunny. Lets see, i have got myself a new job. Whilst it is only temporary at the moment. It is keeping me really busy. 10hr days, w00t! I’m a courier, so getting to see lots of Perth. They mainly keep me up north, so there are lots of places that i don’t know, but am starting to find out more about this city. How bloody easy it is to get around. I’ll give you an example, middle of the day, major highway. Me and 2 more cars, that is it! Ahh easy work! Mainly i pickup doors and other big stuff like that, then deliver it. Not really hard, but i have a radio and a 2 way. Keeps me entertained. I need the money like anything! Why?

Cause I’m hoping to travel to Canada and the US of A for a year. Yep, work in Canada for the ski season and then travel around the place. Hopefully get to as many states as is possible in the time that i have. One thing that has been said to me many times is ” Your only young once” So i’m going to live it up. I don’t like living with regrets, so that is why i’m jumping at this opportunity. Hopefully i will be going with my little sis. Hopefully memories will evolve and last a lifetime. I’m thinking of getting another blog going about the whole trip, but can’t think of any cool names. Any suggestions?
