at keele with the keelians

what a long and tiring week i had.. all suited like a fireman, i learned which fire extinguishers to use on what kind of fires, how to hose down of nasty fires and being a hero saving dummies from a burning building. it was exhausting indeed.. a lot of carrying around long hoses, being around scorching infernos and i can still feel the pain on my shoulders from carrying those heavy air tanks on my back. and how much portion of the training was on "saving a cute little kittens 1 of 9 lives from a tree"? NONE! yup, don't be fooled people.. being a fire defender is not all about being up a ladder and saving mr. snowballs.

and to top of the draining week, i had a terrible thursday.. this too, i'm afraid, is undisclosed for now. don't ask, cause i won't talk about it.. let's just say that it'll change my life.. well, if it happens, that is..

moving on! so, to let loose and refresh. i decided, very suddenly, to spend the weekend at my sister's place and see how she's getting along! ':) it was the perfect time to visit. i was free on friday and my next short course won't be till tuesday. so, it'll make the long trip worthwhile. i called her up and told her to expect me the next day! she was very surprised but eager of my arrival nonetheless.
it took me a good 4 hours to get to keele. thank lord for the invention of ipods. i don't want to bore you people with the details.. there was a lot hanging outs in the kitchen, an open house at one of the freshies, watched an awesome movie; the prestige (watch it, it's good!), bought almost one of everthing in tesco and a tour of the campus. that place is huge! oh, and i also dyed my hair red! haha! nothing too bright.. the girls were bored, so they made an evening out of me.


i'm out!
