Eternal torment: The Search

Tuesday, September 05, 2006

I have been severely neglecting my blog huh? So many things have happened in the span of just a few days that it's a reminder that the train has left the station.

The world was terribly shocked when the death of the famous (or infamous) conservationist, Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter was reported. While some people are staring to realise that this time, it's really the end, (considering that there had been reports a couple of years earlier of him dying as a result of a beetle, etc.), most of the world seemed to reflect on what a great man he was. Considering that he helped to bring the conservation message across to millions, his passing has been likened to Princess Diana's.

Goodbye Steve. You were a great man. I shall miss you. My condolences to Terri, Sue and Ben.
I don't know how one will be able to break the news to Sue and Ben; it's too heart-wrenching in my opinion to tell an 8 and a 3 year old child that their dad is gone. The world has lost a great man but we must remember the message he brought forth: Protect the environment, conserve wildlife.

In other more positive news, Japan has a newborn prince. Congrats. (Although I was hoping that a female could be able to descend the Chrysanthemum Throne)

In the past few days, I have tried to sign up as a relief teacher but I've been facing problems. Now, I've lost the password but I won't give up.

I have been watching the last few minutes of Grey's Anatomy Season 2 repeatedly. It's extremely shocking and sad. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't watched it but I must tell you to expect the tears.

I'm now hooked listening to chasing cars by snow patrol, the song that was used for the final episode. It's just beautiful. I can't describe it.

The zoo outing with my classmates was cancelled, much to the chagrin of several people. But I kind of expected it. Thank you 4/4 for teaching me life lessons.

I haven't even touched a book yet. It's horrendous. I'm wittling my time away clicking my mouse every few seconds to play an online game.

Sims 2 Pets is terribly exciting but I won't be able to play it due to my poor graphic cards and my damn corrupted Sims 2 CD.

Oh well. I just pray that my juices will start to flow. It's better to write than to waste time chasing cars...
