Great Ways to Irritate people

  1. Leave the copy machine set to “99 copies” and chide the unfortunate victim for wasting paper.
  2. When you get your food at the canteen, peer at the food with a concerned look and keep telling the stall owner, “oh my goodness, it’s still moving.”
  3. Stomp on little plastic ketchup packets.
  4. Reply to everything someone says with "in YOUR opinion" and a smirk.
  5. Practice making fax and modem noises and pedestrian-crossing light noises.
  6. Highlight irrelevant information in scientific papers/ newspaper and pass them to your boss/principal with a secretive look.
  7. Make beeping noises when someone moves backwards, or walks too quickly.
  8. Finish ALL your sentences with the words "write it down, it’s important.”
  9. End a conversation by clamping your hands over your ears and making a high-pitch screech.
  10. Call out random numbers while someone is counting.
  11. Adjust your TV/ computer so that all the people are green, and insist to others that you "like it that way."
  12. Staple pages in the middle of the page.
  13. Publicly investigate just how slowly you can make a croaking noise. Challenge busy passersby to beat your record.
  14. Pull out earphones from others and sample their music.
  15. Decline to be seated at a restaurant, and simply eat their complimentary mints at the cash register.
  16. TYPEINUPPERCASEDONTLEAVESPACEANDDONTUSEPUNCTUATION.
  17. Buy a large quantity of orange traffic cones and reroute whole streets.
  18. In the middle of important meetings or conversations, repeat the following conversation a dozen times."DO YOU HEAR THAT?" "Never mind, it's gone now."
  19. Skip, don't walk. Then pause suddenly in front of someone, point upwards with a gleeful grin. Repeat.
  20. Ask people what gender they are.
  21. While making presentations, occasionally bob your head like a parakeet.
  22. Sit by the road, pointing a hair dryer at passing cars to see if they slow down.
  23. Sing along at the musical. Try to see if your voice can overpower the lead singer.
  24. Go to a poetry recital and ask why each poem doesn't rhyme.

  25. At the exam hall, “Tsk” loudly whenever any one makes noises. (guess where this came from?)

Mexico here i come! ( i hope...)

From Visite Mexico site...

CANCUN



Cancun is Mexico's most important tourist destination and one of the world's most well-known resorts. ...with average temperatures ranging between 27º C (81º F) and 35º C (95º F) and sunny days throughout most of the year. (GREAT! i won't freeze to death!)
Cancun offers the unparalleled beauty of the Caribbean Sea's turquoise-blue water and white-sand beaches. (Woo HOO!!!!!) During your stay, you can do water sports or other activities: snorkeling, scuba diving, (yeah! gotta replace license tho...) parachuting, (yayyyyy... SkyDiving!) or you can take a spin on a waverunner. You?ll also find plenty of time to relax and enjoy the fine services offered in the hotel zone. Along the hotel strip, which spans more than 30 kilometers (nearly 19 miles), you?ll find everything from villas and five-star hotels to exclusive resorts and spas =) . You?ll also find modern shopping malls, more than 500 restaurants offering the best in national and international cuisine, and numerous bars and discos where the parties =) rage all night long.

... Finally, you'll want to visit Isla Mujeres and Cozumel to live the unforgettable experience of snorkeling and scuba diving along the coral reefs. =)

On the downside, the reason why munch is reluctant...Shhhh... make small small, dun let him see.

"Crime in Mexico continues to be of concern to travellers, particularly in Mexico City and in beach resort areas. The incidence of violent crime and, more specifically, sexual crimes against women, is increasing. Taxi theft, armed theft, pickpocketing, purse snatching, credit-card fraud and ATM robbery are frequently reported. A spate of recent kidnappings have targeted travellers in the Nuevo Laredo region of northern Mexico." (lonely planet)

safety aside, i haven't really done the budget yet, so i dunno if we can afford mexico,($16k per person according to the article Chris gave me, but i can travel cheap and stay in cheapo hostels) ...

well... but if nothing else, PLAN B!!!

i'll settle for a weekend of partying at Tijuana!
First a stay in San Diego at this hostel

SMS-ing KY

SMS-ing KY is like Blogging.

You can pour out eveything you want,
And be quite sure that someone reads it.
You can never count on getting a reply,
But somehow you'll still feel better.

She must have prayed for me =)


as year end approaches, i'm reminded of how we used to dream together, pray together, sleep together, retreat together, cry together... and just as we get desperate, God shows us the plans for the kids.

will anyone do that with me this year? will God give me strategic wisdom? and all the skills and foresight that i lack? and help me back into passionate love again?
i feel weak, but he is strong. my wisdom is his foolishness.
and i won't let my inadequacies get in the way.
God, help me please?
