A couple of messages

I told myself that I will never say "I miss school".

But as you can see from the trend in this blog, after I graduated, my posts have become less and less frequent. I attribute this to three reasons:

1) I do not have as much free time as I had when I was at school. Or in other words, when I have free time now, I'd rather do something else

2) I don't feel like giving an update every now and then because most people know what I am up to.

3) I don't get any ideas on what to write. Actually I do get a lot of ideas but the fact that I decided that my blog will not be anonymous prevents me from writing things that I would like to write.

So I thought about closing down this blog. You know, deleting it, not having to think about it, not feeling guilty that I do not update it.

But I decided against it. It is going to stay where it is and I will only use it when I feel I need to write something. When I want to express my feelings. When I am angry.

Closing down here is my message of the day:

"You all assholes that are too lazy to walk 20m and park on the handicap parking spaces, just think (that is if your brain has anything in it) that maybe, I am just saying maybe one day you will be the ones needing those spaces"

And if you do not know who I am talking about... just drive around the airport and in the Mall of Cyprus and you will see what I am talking about.

At Athens airport

Two Cypriot ladies are sitting at Gate 7 of the Eleftherios Venizelos Airport in Athens waiting for the flight back to Cyprus.

Sitting right next to them I couldn't help but hear about their childhood, about their work, their shoes, their origins, their daughters, the gossip about their neighbors, how they spent their time in Athens, their knowledge about flights, their complaining about their purses and anything else you can imagine.

After 5 minutes their husbands, get up from their chairs and start wandering in the gate. The dialogue that follows:

Lady1: "Ouff, my husband can't sit in one place. He has to go somewhere all the time"

Lady2: "I know, my husband does the same. He has to be doing something all the time. It makes me mad. They can't sit for 5 minutes"


HELLO LADIES. Have you ever thought that your husbands are just trying to get away from your non-stop talking??????
