Woah!

Ive been so lazy, I havent written here in nearly a month… Well, im very sorry about that, but ive been SUPER busy lately, whats new that i can share…

FIRST AND FOREMOST

I passed my 70-271 exam with a pass score of 883 (only 700 was required) then the cherry on top is that I PASSED MY 2nd EXAM TOO!

Thats right alots happened hey, I passed 70-272 with a pass score of 884 (again only 700 was required)

Which means I am now a Fully Certified (MCDST) Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Techician, basically if you have any problems on you pc, like your monitor wont go on, or you cant send emails in outlook, even if your desktop looks funny, or you cant access shared network files, Im the man for the Job.

Now that Im done with that, i’ve got a hunger for more, and i’ve decided to jump right in the deep end and go for my MCSE, which consists of 7 MUCH more complicated exams, so im really going to struggle there, but will do my best.

Otherwise i’m still alive, healthy and kicking, and will be adding some really funny cat pictures onto the site which im sure everyone will find VERY amusing.

Thanks for your continued support and bye for now!

Well everyone 2008 is upon us, I wish everyone a happy new year, and may all your HIGH’s of last year, be this years LOW’s!!!!

Sorry I’ve been so scarce the past few days, I was kind of on leave, but made a stop in at the office today (wednesday the 2nd) as my boss is away and asked me to fill in, after today I will be on leave again until the 8th, dont miss me to much!

So what do I have to tell, not much, considering….

On old years eve, myself and a few of my friends drove up to another friends farm for a new years party, and wow, what a party it was, I cant recall anyone being sober at all? Headed home yesterday at about 8am stopped in at the wimpy for breakfast and then went home to sleep some more, ofcourse I also had to wash my Aunts car (i’ve been driving it while she was on holiday in Durban) I cant give it back looking all dirty…..

So yeah… thats about that i suppose, oh and I got some new kickass movies so been watching those while recovering from the new years hangover..

Anyhow, catch up again on the 8th, ciao

Friday 30th November 2007

Written by admin on November 30, 2007 – 4:16 am -

9am and still so much has already happened today.

Despite the fact I woke up feeling as I had just climbed in bed my head pounding louder than an angry wife at the door, its a good day.

Dropped Lyndle, (my girlfriend) off at work, made my way home and enjoyed my breakfast, this is where the strange part comes in! On my way back to her work to drop the keys off, I was attacked by a swarm of bee’s, I shit you not, I was driving with my window wide open due to the fact that its blistering hot outside, and all of a sudden, I see a swarm of bees, flying around in the middle of the road, at first I thought it was grass or flies, I wasn’t quite, sure (I think its the fact that my mind was in denial!), but I actually had to stop my car to take a corner past oncoming traffic, I quickly wound my window up as the bees surrounded my car and a few cars around.

I thought I won the battle, as I wheel spun away and parked at the parking lot, to be met by s smiling and welcoming lyndle, as soon as I saw her I saw the smile drop from her face, oh my god, I am absolutely terrified of bee’s and to know that THERE WAS ONE ON MY ARM, lyndle came to my rescue and quickly brushed it off with the force of a gladiator, I spun around to see if there were any more of the little beastlike terrors in my car and there were 2 little sods flying around in my back window, I opened the boot up and 1 made its exit, and I have no idea where the other one was.

At this point I must shamelessly admit i was rather hysterical, talking rather loudly about the swarm of bee’s and passer by’s giving me the evil eye as in ‘what the hell as that freak been smoking’ but i didnt pay attention.

Lyndle made her exit back to work as I handed the keys over to her, seems like the little terrors are gone as I made one last weary inspection to all departments in the car, I was greeted by Lyndles boss having a smoke outside, I again started ranting and raving about the bee’s, and got a few more evil eyes, but hey ‘what the hell’ YOU HAD TO BE THERE!

I jumped in my car, and made a speedy get away, the drive to work was mostly unpleasant to say the least because I still felt them walking all over me, I was 5 minutes late, luckily I have an understanding boss (Im never late for work) and I must say Ashley (My Boss) found the story highly amusing.

I suppose as Im writing this, I must say I too find it amusing, but at the time, it was anything but!

Anyhow, so far is an event filled day, lets see what the rest holds in store!

Cheers

The squatters in West Beach

Written by admin on November 29, 2007 – 5:30 am -

As Im sure you have heard, the outskirts of west beach have been rudely invaded by squatters! Property prices plummet on just the mention of the event, should we worry? YES WE SHOULD! but realistically, what cone be done, nothing much, the property is owned by government, and its constitution that government departments do not challenge each other in court, and that teamed up with the fact that it is everyones constitutional right in South Africa to basic housing, we are fighting a losing and endless battle!

As a matter of fact, government has just recently put in 2 taps so they have running water and will soon be giving them toilets as well! Most certainely making there stay so much more comfortable.

Dont get me wrong, I am not a person that spreads hate speech or racisim, but this is ridiculous, the location has spread to 40 holdings and approximately 75 squatters currently staying in the squatter camp, there is also 2 shebeens already setup.

Is it pure coincidence that since the squatter camp developement we have encountered more robberys, attempted rapes, and housebreaking? I think not.

The safest thing to do at the moment in my opinion is leave the area, it is bad enough how property prices are plummeting at an absolutely astounding rate, but to put yourself in personal danger? Is just not worth it!

Perhaps one day our Mayor will catch a wake up and see how disgusting these shacks look, and how they spoil the absolutely beautiful scenery along the West Coast Road.

Build them houses and get the shacks outta there!
