21.10.2006 - Just a little longer....oh wait, you've all gone

Look im still alive! Growing out my beard to play a farmer in the Thanksgiving play!















Well, since the I won’t be getting the internet in my house for about another week now, my scheduled anime downloadathon has given me a brief chance to post a little entry on my site. No, I have not abandoned it, I am actually really looking forward to letting you guys know what I am up to but right now, not having the net where I hang my hat is what is preventing me from posting.

As Halloween approaches and the festivities begin, the mind wanders to our great celebrations back at university, the costumes, the excitement the copious amounts of booze and general rowdiness. I hope those of you who can share the holiday together back home will try your best to recapture some of that spirit. I have lots of Halloween preparation to do with the kids at school and much of my original week plan has been bumped to a later date so we can celebrate the holiday. In my free time I will be heading to various places with friends to take advantage of the free drinks and food offers available to those in costume. How unsubstantial and cheap I can make such costume remains to be seen.

When I update again, I hope to give you a virtual tour of my new pad, Today I bought a clock and generally bring you up to speed about life here in Taiwan, it seems to be getting more interesting than I originally thought, having met lots of new people and frequented lots of cool new places I am beginning to warm to life here and in my new home.

So give it a week, if I don’t have the internet or haven’t posted by then you have every right to call me lazy and counterproductive. Also I will be participating in another website, a kind of online magazine for foreigners in Taiwan, when asked if I could help out I suggested I handle film reviews since the current crop of articles in all of the expat magazines here are a bit rubbish. So anyway, I’ll let you know as and when that happens.

That all for now,
Sorry to keep you guys waiting so long,

Miss you all!

Till next time,
This has been MMI

just realised that on the link i just sent that the letter 's' is somehow cut off by your blog page settings - so add an 's' on the end of that address (ie papertoys) and scare them little kids senseless!!

Here are some other classic late blog excuses that i found in my round-up

"I got promoted to an officer in my World of Warcraft guild "Trick Model" on Illidan."

"I've been honestly overwhelmed by trying to keep up with my two language courses"

"I forgot my password..."

"I've been busy shooting soccer teams."

"I've been very depressed since Ginger died."

"I was planning on working more on my chibi characters. "

All the best

Yay! Great to hear from you man, you're looking good, I'm loving the beard!

You don't need to worry about us letting the uni halloween spirit down - ryan's gettting as many of us as possible together for the night, which should be great! Emma's even coming back for the night. Wicked costumes are planned so hopefully that should make for a fun time. It won't be the same without you though dude. I'm jealous of Taiwan as you get to party there this year!

Keep on truckin'
Liz :o)
