Six Figure Design

Rick Santorum lost his seat.

The Democrats won the crucial Pennsylvania seat. I can't call this one just yet, but I might say that the Mid-Terms have not looked to shabby from what has happened so far on the streaming BBC. Ned Lamont lost, sadly, but I'm not unhappy with the results. The Senate is changing hands. For those of you who don't know/care, it's about the American elections that occurred today. It doesn't matter much, just how the world is ruled.

A collection of quotes that epitomise a cross-section of politicians.

Seeing all these speeches from politicians reminds me of that Chappelle sketch. It wasn't funny.

I think I've lost the English audience at this point. Well, a little about me and my week: I now have a new Japanese speaking partner, Yusuke, this crazy guy who is pretty in tune with how I want to talk, and I just need to follow his lead a bit, and maybe my language will get better.

I need to finish my handout sheet for next lesson on Thursday, to send to Fuyu. I also found out Kelly (good Kelly) is on Facebook at last, as well has having a couple of good Pool games with Helgi. A couple of you may have noticed the colour scheme change. Refresh the page a couple of times, and tell me what you think. In a comment. Comments, people!

I watched an event I hadn't witnessed since High School today, a teacher (lecturer) shouting and kicking out a pupil from a class. He was disobeying him, but he was taking it as a joke, and was really shocked when he got disciplined. But it showed just how resistant he was to authority. He refused to accept his fate, and only moved with the threat of security being called. I saw how he was so angry, and hated being told what to do by anyone. It's a whole culture that doesn't take orders well, and I could tell, the lecturer was loving getting to discipline him (the student was being a pratt, and had been pushing boundaries far too much). I couldn't help but laugh.

I miss you all who I do not see enough.
