What's new with you?

Some stuff doesn't work in the ChatBox.
It takes too long to explain, and the conversation jumps around.

This thread need not be left here for posterity.
You can edit your own stuff, or ask me to delete things when they get too old.

Everyone -- tell us about new relationships, additions to the family... what's going on?

Awesome... my birthday is also 12th January... my middle name is Liina.
Luna Lena has a great name.

I'm working hard (as always) and I sing with the melbourne symphony orchestra choir. Always busy. I'm trying to help my mum through a rough patch that she is having... I also have a few friends going through difficulties now and I'm trying to be supportive and think of helpful things to say and do.

Um ... What's so new with me recently ...

Well , a new semester just started , and I could imagine that I'll have been being busier and busier in the coming 2008 , for there will be an entrance examination the next Febuary . And for the same reason , Mom doesn't allow me to keep going to the dancing class . She wants me to pay all my attention to the exam . It's in my expectation that she'll eventually ask me to stop practicing piano . I guess it'll be around mid September , and that'll probably be the last piano class in my life .

Somehow I don't care that much now , while I was really really upset when I waved farewell to my buddy in dancing class . I think I'll simply grab my last half-an-year time to learn to play more sonatas or something like that .

Hmm whats new with me....... oh I KNOW

we had a HUGE and I mean HUGE ice storm on Monday and at 1:30 AM on Tuesday we lost Electricity and Heating the only thing we had was water... and we got electricity back 8:00 Wednesday and 10 minutes before I wrote this we got phone and computer back......... other than that I'm really swimming harder because the championship meets are coming up and thats about it for right now

whats new with me?
actually, nothing. my life is as boring as always. some action is more than welcome... sirius is right.

That strikes me as extremely unlikely. Actually, impossible, since I know nothing about you. Your gender I can guess. Beyond that...

Whats new with me?

Well, my job sucks so bad that I refuse to talk about it when I'm off the clock (not getting paid). Even with my family.

My life, identity, self-esteem and all that kind of stuff revolve around the family and the school board. (I'm a Trustee.)

Today is my son's 17th birthday. Other than a Playstation III (we're broke right now) he wants for nothing.
I got him a Cthulhu T-shirt and a plushie. I don't think anyone else got him anything yet.
He is pure geek and would play WarCraft to the exclusion of all else if he could get away with it.
He doesn't need a driver's licence or a job because he has no where to go and doesn't need anything.
Doesn't want a girlfriend and won't admit to having ever had a crush. His best friend (one year older) is graduating this year. After that, I'm worried that my kid will never go out again. Drives me crazy.

Right now, we're doing a little project that includes a simple, innocent little survey so that we can evaluate the Principal.
People are such a pain. They take the simplest thing and make it so complicated and suspicious.
It's been bedlam. At one point, I had to tell my best friend (another Trustee) by mass e-mail, that she just has a bug up her a-- and to get over it.
A new guy, just joined the Board a few weeks ago, asked "...Is this usually the language and conversation that takes place in Board discussions?..." I told him that it was "...usually a little more pleasant. Most of the time. Welcome to the Board."

So, what's everyone else up to lately?

What's new... let's see..

My sister's here from Australia. She's going to stay a month or so. She's got a 5-year-old son who thinks I'm an entertainment machine. I like to make sure that he has enough fun here to want to come back.

I've been away from the Cyber world for over a month - my own world needed some renovation. Some of you know that I had quit my job. Things have happened now that makes me think that I'd made the right decision. That job was going nowhere. The investors and I could not come to terms as to how the Academy needed to operate, what age group of students we were targeting, and what we ought to specialize in. There were other differences of opinion as well. I like to run things my own way, and I don't like people interfering who care more about their wallets than education. The business of education is very lucrative, and many people who don't belong there are getting involved, especially in the developing countries.

Anyway, I've decided to stay away from administration for the moment and have gone back to teaching. I'm currently teaching at three institues and have not settled into a permanent position yet intentionally. I've been offered profit sharing partnerships by two major language centers. I'm still thinking it over. I've also been asked to participate (head) in the writing of a series of books dealing with the IELTS exam and English as a spoken language. They haven't mentioned any payment terms, so, I've only said 'yes' tentatively. My goal is still to have my own academy with branches in a number of districts and major cities in the country. That's one of the reasons I'm going to several places actually. I'm observing how they operate and am collecting material I'll need when I do revive my work on my own project. Don't tell them that though.

Well...
Basketball season is over. We won both tournaments. Now tennis is starting.
December was U.I.L. I got first places in Spelling & Dictionary Skills, second in Ready Writing, fourth places in Editorial Writing & Impromptu Speaking, and fifth place in Oral Reading.
I am convinced the guy who restocks the Coke Machine in the high school is out to get me, since he keeps putting the wrong things in the Mountain Dew slot, and Mountain Dew is practically the only thing that keeps me sane around here.
Oh, and today I hurt my ankle and I won't be able to walk all weekend if I want to go to tennis practice Monday.
That's it.
