^ Young love can be so tough. I remember once, after a co-worker´s last day, I went home from the office, sat on my bed and cried.

@ Ki; if you have a doctor´s note, they really shouldn´t complain. Far better that you get fixed up and go back healthy than aggravate the prob by going back too early. Also, your health is more important than a manager´s work load.

@ LoathsomeP; glad you had a productive day. Of all those things you mentioned, I think the Lego was the only one I could´ve done!

@ Vanilla; sorry to hear you don´t feel too good. I hope you bounce back soon and do well in your exam. Waiting, meanwhile, for a photo of you plus backpack in the classroom !

Stupid wankers probably didn't realise that a lot of those people were probably born here and have Australian citizenship. Made me feel proud to be Australian ................... Not!!
^ Yes, that sounds disagreeable, Grogsy. I guess none of those morons were enthusing about Tibetan monks as per your avatar...

And as for me; I should´ve been preparing course material for the classes that I have to teach in the coming months, but instead I´ve been downloading music so that I´ll have something new to listen to as I drive to work ...

EDIT: People here who are of European descent can be pretty snobbish about people of indigenous descent too. It seems pretty strange to be saying, in effect, "Because my great-granddad came from Spain, I´m better than that guy, whose great-granddad was born here."
