All right! Monday and I am at work... My day started with a meeting with my employer where my pay was, funnily enough, increased by £1400 a year... which naturally always is a nice thing. My pay will also be reviewed once my probation period is over... which is in 4 weeks.I had a really nice weekend...
I went to Cardiff on Friday to spend some quality time with my boyfriend. (It still feels so weird to call him my boyfriend though... gotta get used to it!!!) Time flew by - as it always does when you are enjoying yourself - and I didn't want to really leave yesterday, but not much I could have done about it... I'm really itching to write about him here, but I think that stuff will stay in my private diary for now - I am just really happy how things have turned out between me and him - We used to be our worst enemies just few months ago and now he seems to be the only thing I can think about... But that's enough about him.
The Olympic Torch was in London yesterday. GO GO Protestants!!! I am so proud of these people. I am laughing this morning when I was reading about someone trying to snatch the torch or someone trying to put the flame out with a exstiguisher... too bad they didn't succeed. Olympic games in such a corrupt country as China is a stupid stupid idea ... I think the only good thing coming out from the games is that people will finally pay attention to that poor excuse of a country. I was watching news clips on youtube and some of the comments there made me laugh at how ignorant some people can be. Lots of people were saying that the protests againts olympic games are so wrong because politics and sport shouldn't be mixed... If I remember correctly from the history lessons Olympic Games were outlawed as a pagan festival for a long time and also the modern version of Olympic Games is all about politics - otherwise you wouldn't need to be filthy rich to host the games. I just have this feeling that the protests that have happened so far are only a top of the iceberg that these games will cause. Bad bad stuff will happen if/when these games start and I don't really want to say "I told you so" then... They should just cancel the olympics for this year (1st time for everything, right?) and tell China to sort out their human/animal rights and then come asking for a re-run.
But anyway... I think that's about it for now, I might write something more a bit later if I get bored.
