Balwin street in Dunedin New Zealand
thought we at least could go visit the steepest street in the world
the houses are still on the flat ground, but the street does look pretty steep from the side
me before the start of 'conquering' the steep street

Life is a gift
from SZ's blog. thanks dear, it's very nice, thought i might share it w other people too
Life Is a Gift
Today:
before you say an unkind word – Think of someone who can’t speak.
before you complain about the taste of your food – Think of someonewho has nothing to eat.
before you complain about your husband or wife – Think of someonewho’s crying out to GOD for a companion.
before you complain about life – Think of someone who died too early on this earth.
before you complain about your children – Think of someone who desires children but they’re barren.
before you argue about your dirty house someone didn’t clean or sweep – Think of the people who are living in the streets.
before whining about the distance you drive – Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.
and when you are tired and complain about your job – Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.
but before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another – Remember that not one of us is without sin.
and when depressing thoughts seem to get you down – Put a smile on your face and think: you’re alive and still around.

another hurdle...
job match results out on monday: and am officially jobless for next year. crap
a whole combination of causes: 1) applied for a bpt3+ year when i'm not even a proper bpt2. 2) only applied to 2 hospitals. arrogance is a cause of my downfall sometimes.
so now, instead of hastening the whole process, i've slowed it down.
upset that the hospitals don't acknowledge my efforts at work. ah well. disillusioned and disappointed.
going to reassess and regather my plans for the future.

after 9 months...
after 9 months, i think i'm still in love w him.
he's got a boy's brain. That day, he said, 'can this venesian talk martian for once?' Cracked me up big time.
So far, i've thrown all these weird silly questions at him, and he's not rejected me yet. he's in fact treated them really seriously.
he's been gentle w me. encourages me.
thanks dear.

reflections on relationships
because i like to think about these touchy-feely topics, i think about relationships in general.
so presented Y a few questions, which of course he kindheartedly and openly obliged.
1) does this feel rite to you?
2) why me?
3) why not someone else in between?
maybe it's my insecurities. but i think it's more due to my logical brain trying to work out something that isn't quite logical. i then threw the questions back to myself. and we've both wisely decided to withhold judgement for now.
