Yesterday was the first day I got upset at the Platoon Hour. When we first arrived our captains gave us the opportunity to each week nominate the Cadette of the Week. He or she would then get their names on the anti-tank cartridge placed next to the board, as a small reward for having exceeded in something that week.
The price was meant as an...

So what you're saying is I should buy rollerskates?

Sadly, I don't think I could grow a mustache. I can just make my upper lip unattractively hairy.
It's been a good day. School consisted mainly of "personal planning" for the shooting class we're holding next week (that is, we had the whole day to ourselves) shared only with a Body Balance class before lunch. (23 guys trying yoga for the first time. Fucking best ever.)
After school I went over with the guys to the gym. Robin let me try his suspicious...

Funny how sometimes you accidentally find yourself flirting when you didn't quite expect it to.

Yeah, I knew when writing that that your answer would be the wildest. I have to say I'm impressed. Partially because I fear you will inflict grievous bodily harm on me if I don't, but mostly because I actually am. Thanks for the welcome.
Just came over from Robin and a vampire movie night. He is the biggest guy in the group, that is counting pec size. He's some years younger than me, and that's a fucking shame because otherwise he is sweet and cute and got those broad shoulders I could kill to get my hands on. He's got a girlfriend already though, and I actually quite thankful...

gotta love those crazy dreams that seem so damn real, yet really did not take place, haven't had one work out like that though, bet that was some fun awkwardness but at least you have a horror movie friend now, that's always nice
At the Monday run today I hooked up with the "10 km in 60 minutes" group, as usual. It was lead by Cpt. B. As usual he had his backpack on and as we were heading out to the forest and the running paths he came up beside me.
"How come you're running in the 60 group?"
He sounded so surprised that I just looked...

Tea with Brits, Brits with tea? Either way I would be one happy sumbitch.
I started thinking about what your old teacher said about reading the same text twice, and on a literal sense of the question, of course you can, I have read the same book two or three times and probably will a few more in my life, but on the sense of the question itself I say no. I say that because I am never quite the same person when I read a book over as I was when I did the last time. I have learned more, experienced more, felt more, and hopefully done more in the time that has existed between readings, so I wouldn't be reading the same text in the sense that the book might be the same but the reader is not so the whole experience of it has changed so then you are taking more from it or just different aspects of it that you didn't the first time. If different parts are "speaking" to you then you aren't reading the same text twice.
Just what my mind decided to cobble together, but the question itself made me miss english classes as a whole. Thanks for kicking my brain into gear this morning though, that's always nice.

Sunday. Was out yesterday with the guys from the village. Six beers, and I was drunk when I woke up this morning. Didn't do anything stupid though, and had a pretty nice conversation with Jabber when we got back to the village. He is short and sweet and, alas, too young for me. Did feel like making out with somebody yesterday, but thankfully I didn't...

Glad to hear you're having fun, and quasi-behaving yourself, good girl.
Despite all, Hunter seems fine. His leg is broken and he is going in for surgery tomorrow, but he is in good spirits and after a serious talk with the school headmaster he got a pass to continue on despite his injury, although he'll be off school for two weeks for rehabilitation.
To top it off, he's shaped up the most gorgeous mustache I have...

well as long as the gas mask doesn't take over like in Doctor Who you should be just fine.
Hunter got beaten up at the club last night. We found out at breakfast. Him and some other guys had been downtown dancing when suddenly some unknown blokes had attacked them from behind and started punching them. The other guy had got out alright, but Hunter hadn't been so lucky. When the dust had settled he had a cut up eyeborw and a broken leg....

You're a hell of a lady, and even if he doesn't have access to a computer or like to read, the fact that you care enough to put something together for him will be a winning enough combo, so don't worry.
I met up with Ace today at the airport. We always meet up at the airport. Not so much back in the village, always at the airport. Airports seem to be our thing.
The flight was about an hour delayed and two of the girls and me were heading off to SkyCity for a beer when we met him outside Max. He slowed to a...

I need to find someone I am sharpened by, and in turn can sharpen.....so good for you on that aspect of life.
My hamstrings hurt, big time. Went to the gym last night, mt body is so not usedf to that kind of work out. Going to work on my power in the gym, making a training program for the next year. Heading for gold in the FM Atlet competition next winter. By then I have to run the Swedish mile (10 km) in about 40 minutes,...

Sounds like when I got back on my bike this year after being off it for wuite a while, it get's better.
As night hits this tiny little village I find myself back in my appartment feeling thoroughly confuzzled. Fair to say it's been an intense weekend, and the few hours passed since hasn't made much to let my poor head wrap around it.
I've had the cold of the year, then got a visit from the Cadette and in some way found myself getting laid and...
