Armaggedon?

Have you heard that a satellite has broken down and lost control of its functions?It is believed to enter the earth's atmosphere some time between mid-February and the beginning of March. I would think that something like that would disintregate when it hit the earth's stratosphere but evidently it won't. So there is fear that it may hit a populated area plus scientists are worried about the substances that it is caring. How dangerous can these substances be?I find this very strange. Don't you?

Home for the weekend

I usually work during the weekend which is a bummer but this weekend I am sick with a stuffy nose and sore throat so I stayed home. One good thing about this is I get to veg and read. At the moment I am reading: A short history of tractors in Ukranian.I had seen it in the book shops and knew but I didn't think I'd like it until of friend gave it to me for Christmas. So far it's quite funny and easy to read. Let you know what I think once I'm done.

Blood Diamond


Have you seen this film?If not, you really should.I've had this film for a few months but I hadn't had the time to watch it until Friday. I wanted to show my students something to make them think and be able to discuss about afterwards.I can truly say that it was riveting.It is about the diamond trade in Sierra Leon and the Congo. I couldn't believe the barbaric way in which both the government and the militia treat the people of these areas. It was shocking and eye-opening. I never want to own a diamond if it means that people are treated in this way.I highly recommend this film as it action-packed as well as educational.

Matthew Perrry is a Cutie


We all know and love him as Chandler Bing in Friends which is one of the all-time best tv shows ever made. He recently played in another tv show called Studio 60 on the sunset strip which was unfortunately cancelled. I really can't understand why though.The plot was different, the dialogue witty and the story was fast moving.I believe that Matthew is an amazing actor. He could play many roles easily if given the chance.
Well if you haven't watched this tv show, I recommend that you do and you won't be disappointed.

Caffeine


Tell me,is there anything better than a piping hot cup of coffee? Or is a Cappuccino Freddo more your cup of tea? Think of all the benefits. It helps us wake up in the morning, get over a hang-over, face a hectic day at work or even be the topic of conversation on an awkward first date. I wonder if there is an international day for coffee and if there isn't, there should be.

hello

I have no idea what i am doing
