Easter time has come and past...so what else is new???
Just got a new haircut...biggest combover I've seen in a while...but it's cool...only had to pay $9 for it, compared to the $17 I paid for the last one...
Spent too much money today actually...most of it was for my sister...$74 worth of the stuff...had to send home a care package (filled with Easter Eggs)...$39 for postage...but it did weigh 3.52kg, so I guess that's alright...
Blah...in Wentyville at the moment...absoloutely nothing to do...except holiday homework...Chemistry notes nearly done...only another 30 more pages to go...need more paper actually...should have got some from the newsagents earlier...damn...
Got all the money ready for the Ball too...that should be alright...lost Sue's cheque though...*BAD NICK*...hope Charlie is alright with it...got to get the TR 66's ready for it too...big shit...
Might have to go soon...got to get home and have a shower...might go out and watch a movie...
Blah...
Who Is The Black Chinaman?
- Nick
- Kuala Belait, Brunei
- Saving someone's life is like falling in love. The best drug in the world. For days, sometimes weeks afterwards, you walk the streets, making infinite whatever you see. Once, for a few weeks, I couldn't feel the earth - everything I touched became lighter. Horns played in my shoes. Flowers fell from my pockets. You wonder if you've become immortal, as if you've saved your own life as well. God has passed through you. Why deny it, that for a moment there - why deny that for a moment there, God was you? I realised that my training was useful in less than ten percent of the calls, and saving lives was rarer than that. After a while, I grew to understand that my role was less about saving lives than about bearing witness. I was a grief mop. It was enough that I simply turned up. Living and working back in Brunei, after a 14 year absence... Also known as: Brunei, NASA, Bruise-Eye, Bru, Cheesecake, Nick, BruNick, BruMedNick, Two Step etc etc etc
