i is speaking perfeect Feanch..

Freanch is a fery fery fice language.. wifh afot of fh.. anyway its 74 days to the As man.. hoho.. hehehe.. tink im going nuts.. have enjoyed my two yrs of fun and now its time to study.. yes, study.. who came up with this term 'study' in the first place? well, there is indeed an answer to that question..
long time ago, there was a man called Safainhorambaba who lived in 300 B.C. it was a splendid period to live in with all the new mud houses that just came into development.. now they had doors for goodness sake which finally allowed for easy entry and exit from the houses.. (the previous method being climbing up a ladder to the top of the roof and sliding down on a pole thru the hole in the roof to the centre of house.) although the element of fun was removed, however the utter convenience of the door made life so much easier.. ppl now could could bring their produce and shopping items into the house without breaking them. (this happened as ppl had to throw the stuff thru the hole in the roof to get it into the house.) but most imptly, ppl could finally sleep in peace without having water soaking them wet when it rained.. (think you can figure out why this happened) thus the invention of the door was of profound significance to humanity and all who lived in mud houses.. and it was this invention by Safainhorambaba that paved the way for an even greater variety of doors we see today..

I'll continue the story on how the term 'study' came about in the next post.. so till next time, and in the words of Safainhorambaba, ' go and see alibaba!'
Cheers!
God Bless!

ze veather fis very vot.

yes, the weather has been a little warm.. i really dun like high temperatures.. anyway thats for that..

anyway the prelims are just around the corner rite now so yup, am feeling a little worried if i might add.. who wouldn't? they say the two years you spend in jc are the worst two (studying wise) you'll ever have to go through.. for all the 18 years that i have lived, i totally agree with that.. whats more! i'll forget everything i learnt when i enlist into the army, cleaning toilets, polishing my boots and.... marching.. yes... overheard a conversation the other day between two guys, presumably two NS guys.. One went 'i tink i march too fast like that..(mimicking how he really marched) how do you march slower?' i couldnt hear the other's reply.. whether i really cared or not, that i leave it up to you.. it just shows something.. when i go into army, im most likely gonna be like him.. marching in front of a mirror to see if im doing it correctly.. speaking in all the acronyms like so you finish your FT so that you can enter OCS so that you can become the CO of the HUDSAFHO..(the last one was made up) well.. picture looks bleak but i'll live thru it.. thats why i love my country so much.. even with all the stupid things that we have to go thru, with all the cyclical movements of our education system, changes in the system that existed 10 years ago which were abolished and now return, well, we still live thru them.. i mean we have to.. besides no one government in the world is perfect.. neither is ours.. ours just tries too hard..
well wad do you get in the end?
you answer for yourself.
Cheers!
God Bless
