NB = nota bene = note well
IE = id est = that is
EG = exempli gratia = for example
ETC = et cetera = and so forth

Yeah, I'm a language freak too, Rian!

I hate that even though I love archery, I'm not very good at it My husband and 12-year-old son can both beat me But I get the most enjoyment out of it, I think Drat, it's so frustrating to get a few in the middle and think you've got it together then sail one off to the side.... and it doesn't help that I haven't shot for a month because of the stupid soccer season

Yeah, I've had that too, not to mention assorted other nonsense they fill their heads with from time to time. I reckon, though, they're doing a job and it probably isn't right to interfere if it doesn't get out of hand.

Of course, if you really wanted to cause a riot, you could mark them with red ink (with "see me" in the margin and such like) and display them at the PTA meeting.

I hate getting new elastics on my braces, and getting my braces tightened...hurts too much for the first few days.

I hate many things here are a few:

-People pretending to be something they are not (eg. white people pretending they're black)
-Pop music (they have no talent)
-Arrogant people or countries
-religious people trying to push their beliefs on me

I have many more...these are just some off the top of my head

LOL! Oh, that's really funny!! Yes, I think I'll wait a while longer to bring it to her attention - at least until after my youngest is out of her class!

Watch out - here come some AMD's!!!! DUCK!!!

*sigh* I just made a tuition payment. is that depressing, or what?

I also hate that I'm not going to be able to come home for thanksgiving. I know that I'm going to a Canadian school, so they aren't required to give us American Thanksgiving, but it sure would be nice of them to do. After all, 40% of us are American!

Okay, you know the world is undereducated when....

-You argue with a teacher about whether "priveleges" has a d in it

-The teaching movie in Biology consistently misuses it's/its

-You are smarter than half of the kids in Honors math, and you're in regular math (see, I just don't do my homework)

Gaaah! Annoyeth me.

Oh, and these computers (at school) are so bloody slow!!!

Vent Vent Ventity Vent!!

I've had to stop smoking

I know that sounds like nothing to be upset about but despite the fact that smoking kills I actually enjoyed it

Trouble was I've smoked since I was 14 yrs old and my lungs have decided that it's payback time (finding breathing hard and coughing like a coal miner every morning).

For years I kidded myself that smoking wouldn't effect me but those little cancer sticks are............time to quit (don't really fancy a future with emphezema or worse).

Why is everything we find pleasure in eventually bad for us?

To make matters worse those nicorette patches are even more expensive than the bleedin' ciggies were ............. cost me nearly twenty-five quid for patches to help me stop (they do work well tho...........really help to kill the craving)
