About giant 10 armed/tentacled squid, you can look it up here. (no, not the black and white movie =P)

And Norway is great! 2 more shifts and im flying hoooome!!!

*bounces up and down in his chair*

Can't wait... egawds... 12 days is too long already!

Summer is ending though, less sun, shorter days, more rain.

Which means... cozy evenings, more time on forums and better excuses to cuddle up in the couch rather than running aloof outdoors =)

14 days of... as Braveheart says...

"Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedooooom!!!"

Anyhow, how is the summer getting along around your neck of the woods? Is it really rain the whole year through on that big island of yours? I can't recall how it was over there since I haven't been there since I was 12 =p

Oh giant squids with ten arms

There is a William Wallace expedition opening in Parliament building in Edinburgh ,going to try and see it.

Summer here has actually been very nice this year the down side of that has meant constant watering of the garden . that garden hose wrestles with me on purpose !!!

Things are starting to turn now in the garden ,berries and leaves are looking a little autumnal but it is still warm so far,but by the end of the month it will change quite rapidly.I autumn though it is so beautiful*sighs*

So two weeks of freedom for you ,give a poor revising student (who is panicing slightly )a thought

Planning to do anything special?

Naw, nothing special planned. Only "big" plan I have is getting my new laptop set up, since I only had 2 hours to toy around with it after I got it, since I got it in the afternoon, the day before we had to go offshore again. Been itching for 14 days now to get my paws on it... arrrllhhh.

Other than that, I have bit of laundry to do, probably dusting some around the apartment to get it all nice and clean and habitable again after 14 days.

Might go jogging with a friend, since he asked several times before, and I always said no. But now, after all the free food and probably few extra pounds, I suppose I might give in and join him.

What to do afterwards though? Probably posting at these forums still, gaming some on my new laptop of course, once I get World of Warcraft installed on it again =p I just love magic, dragons and the medieval/fantasy thing. When I die, I hope I'm reincarnated as a big, red Dragon! ^.^

Also going to go see some movies, Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy of course!!! So annoying I missed the whole grand opening and all, being stuck out here... grrrrrrrr! But there are also several other movies I'd like to see in the evenings, especially now that the summer is at it's end and we get more of the "indoor" evenings =)Nothing like a good movie, some snack and relaxing on the couch ^.^

Not too much time to go travelling in just the 14 days, so not planning to do any of that yet. But around start of October - mid October, we'll be finished with this project offshore, and I'll have about 9-11 weeks of Freedom!!!

Quite possible I might plan a trip to either the US or to the UK during that time. I haven't been to the US west coast still, and it's been 14 years since I was in the UK last. I was only 12 back then, so didn't get to see a whole lot. Or I just didn't have much interest for it while I was that young. I do recall going to the cliffs of Dover though =)

Who knows, maybe I'll pass by your own neighbourhood heh. So what you got planned now that summer is nearing it's end?

Enjoy the break from workBig red dragon
I am revising for my next exam which should be next week but due to reasons beyond my control is now the following week
I always get a little anxious around exam time but on the whole am confident*well if I say it often enough will believe it*
I would dearly to curl up on the sofa and watch a good movie but for the next fortnight it will be and
Speaking of which I have to go revise
Catch you later and have some for the film

Hey I know something else, Sperm whales and some of the other larg toothed whales sometimes get into fights with and eat giant squids. That's why they can sometimes have suction cup marked shaped scars or people find big beaks inside their bellies. Wha's Norway like. Have never gotten to go there. My Dad says it sounds like the sea that your rig is out on is probably the North Sea ( I think. Can't quite remember. American tends to = foggy in geography).
The desert was really neat. People get strange symbolic dreams in particular places in Arizona, and the psychics there, there is a lot of "New Age" in Sedona, all like to claim that it is because of "vortexes." but they never seem to come up w/ a satisfactory explanation as to what one of these "things" is. .

I get about six hours every night and i feel fine. In fact, if i sleep any more, i feel worse.

Six hours of lovely uninterrupted sleep ooooooooooooooohh how lucky are you

six hours, on four I feel crummy. Occasionally if way too sleep-deprived will sometimes see things a little. Like spots or "fog." I wonder if that's normal for other people too or not? .

Fog or frogs ,I just see red without sleep, well at the very least irritable

Oh, I just get . People still say I'm rather difficult to have to be around then, and I believe them, yet...

Pleasant dreams

So do other people "see" bits of things when they are way too tired too or is it just & = ?

Can't say I do see bits of things but I do when I have been

Huh.

as hell. Hate having to always stay up late and then wake up early. Folks keep yelling @ me to wake up. Lately have been greeting each new oncoming day w/ "Oh ." I did not mean to be complaining mind you. .
s weakly.

It is to much studying to blame thorn and am afraid I know of no cure until after the exams

Americans as of late have been prone to have allowed unsubstantiated phobias pressure the legislature into a test-centric obsession. Nasty -ing sons of a ed, ing -er of a -ity.
Hey, tha's a new record.
am I a hypocrite then?

i wish they'd test the legislators @ least half as much,... submit scan-tron forms to the pressure groups .

if u become sleepy sometimes means u normal, u cannot have insomnia and become sleepy. now why sleepy and why not is still strong question needs answer , well I recommend
a. check the sugar, sleeping enemy
b. check the garlic , the sugar enemy
c.check lemon juice or alike (no sugar).
d.so very hot showers, cold at the end.
e.try black seed, brew it in the coffee machine just like u do coffee,( never grind the seeds).
u don't have to do all that but listen to ur body. oh by the way sleeping an hour in the afternoon is never bad
good luck.
