i feel so much like an invalid with this persistant and irritating cough. there is a need for drugs. -ahhhh- yes foreign particles to supercharge the body. i could use one of those asthama inhalers, it helps a hell lot as past experiences have shown. then there's the flu vaccine to induce the production of the antibodies that will make the body impervious to the assaults by the 3 out of 5 of the major flu strains. last but not least, V12 fuel injection. the most potent form of creatine on the market. by now you probably realize that i believe in the artificial.

quote of e day "training can give you what God and your parents didn't"

walking out of the frosty ts and into the drizzling rain, decked out in my jacket, i just felt the urge to drop everything and go home and rest. but your face flashed through my mind and at the crossroads of the back gate or the canteen i chose to step into canteen instead. eventually i ended up at training. thankfully, or else i would have felt super disappointed with myself now.

brian o'driscoll couldn't have said it better. "its a contact sport until he gets the ball", indeed once he does it becomes more like a street fight with limited rules of engagement. i can't wait till we get a few friendly games under our belt, really want to work out the tackling that will leave people wirthing in the agony of bruised ribs. brutality and violence will instill fear in the hearts of all.

as of Sunday 1st Feburary there will be 2 months before it all begins. 2 months might be considered a long time for some, and a short time for others. for me, its just nice. just enough time to slab on the extra armoured plating and to boost the firepower of the fighting machine. to make it one of the greatest instruments of pain in a well oiled and well drilled formation. i will earn what He did not give me, the wings to fly and the swords to bring about the redemption of the tears, sweat, blood and broken bones of generations gone past. all that has to come from within, the heart, passion, desire that must be translated to discipline and ultimately the weapons that will cast them down from their lofty position of arrogance. even then the efforts of one will not be enough. Even the great Achilles whose dipping in the river of Styx made him invincible fell to a single arrow what more a mortal? it would take the united and concentrated effort of us all, to burn the arrogant city of Troy to the ground.

finally caught last samurai today with e juniors. i don't know how films impact on people but i always try to relate it to life. nathan algren at the begining of the play is a drunkard on the verge of breaking down but he finds the meaning of his life in the discipline of the samurai, the "bushido" code. by assimilating the best of that culture he becomes a warrior that embodies the best characteristics of the past and the present. discipline is essential to life. indeed i rue the time wasted doing meaningless stuff like stoning online and the number of times i've had to overturn my diet...so yeah its time for changes. a burning resolve, and the establishment of a routine of training and study. its time to start sticking to the piorities.

i can't say its all been going right for me because it hasn't. since the start of the year till now, i'm damn sure that i have seriously neglected academic concerns. silas marner is a pain in the ass because i just haven't gotten down to reading it, i know about as much about it as Hard Times. imagine Mr. E's face if he ever reads this. not to mention the book review that i was supposed to do during december. -bleah- ok fine i was too busy doing weights and training to even bother myself with reading. yes dumb jock ... but whatever...some of you aren't that bright yourselves. my maths...well i guess i just got to keep up with tutorials... i actually know my stuff...haha...econs is pretty much dead..haven't been going for lectures...tutorials are still on last year's stuff. -bleah- gillian i'm joining you for tuition from june onwards!!! my international history is in a whirl too.. don't know anything. i'm on e path to self destruction man. on the other side of the coin, cheech i so have to agree with you. that bloody haemorphedite of a boot licker is seriously too damn good at it..taking credit when it ain't even due. well some people place their "education" above all i guess. overseas university, need a scholarship -blah- -blah- not going to revert to last year's negativity la...going to take everything in a very positive light now. he's no brother of mine. so i ain't going to bother about him though its just disgusting in class at times. grotesque even. this is quite a useless post...just need to remind myself of how bad some things are going and the need to work harder.

rocky has inspired me once again. i know just what i lack now. and i'm going to chase it and hunt down that secret weapon to beef up my armoury. i'm coming for you. i look at your disgusting photo everyday before i go to school. when the day of reckoning comes. i will leave you wirthing in pain and agony.
