Outside the Train station there are Outdoor escelators with a plastic cover over it to keep it dry from the rain. Yeah right! Stepped onto it and slipped down a step. I managed to grab the rail before fell on my arse, but still managed to wallop my right arm and leg. Lets just say i was completely mortified, quickly hopped up and got off as soon as i could. Got to the bus station and managed to get on a Airlink bus before it pulled off. Everything fine. Get to Airport and i stood up to make my way to the stairs to get to the lower deck of the bust to get off, bus jerks sideways, i fall into a seat area and bang my right leg (again) of the seat.
Lets just say i'm still nursing a sore arm, and a stiff leg that keeps cramping.

D: Owwwwww! I'm sorry. :(

Well, it wasn't too weird, but I was just walking to the library a few minutes ago and the wind was blowing and it was making my jacket swoosh so I pretended to be a superhero and my English teacher was right behind me and said, "Don't fly away!" And I said, "Maybe I want to!" and then he said, "How about those darned socks of yours?" Because earlier in English he was talking about the correct word for mending socks is to darn them. He thought I knew what it was because I sew but I never heard that before...

Anyways, I just loved that pun he said. :D

:lol: I tried to teach puns to my 10th graders. Most of them didn't understand.

Yesterday I saw a pick-up truck parked in the casino garage loaded with furniture. Maybe they thought the casino with take it in exchange for chips?

:lol: thats actually funny!:p

Okay. So i went out for a few drinks last night for my birthday. There was only four of us, but we had a good laugh. One of the new supervisors from work popped in for a few drinks and we all got chatting. my friend from work is a very intellegent you person but unfortunately some schools in Ireland dont make history and geography compulsory. We wer asking the new superviser from work about his girlfriend who is french canadian. My friend went to ask something then stopped herself and went to whisper it to her friend instead. Myself and the french superviser managed to hear what she said.
"Because she's french canadian, does that mean that france is beside canada?"
Well, we all pissed ourselves laughing. She is very funny and started laughing herself when we explained to her that canada was a french colony at one point hence french canadian. She took it all with a grain of salt. Shes great like that.:) Thats why we all love her.

Americans say that all the time, at least all the ones I'm familiar with. I never really understood it. Of course the way we spell certain things (color = colour) and say certain things is different, but the language is still the same.

I think it had been during a discussion about languages and the Irish girl said, "Sure we speak english in Ireland same way you speak English in america." And that was the girls reply.

Oh, I see. Still, I don't think I would have been surprised.
