Yesterday I received my first Happy Easter sms. Though I know people do not usually do that, it was very nice to receive yet. But then again, nowadays, any news or letters or sms from Melbourne really adds value to the day, making me happier. I have sent my reply of course, and hope that XXBear does get a good job at her interviews soon. Since RoxBear has also started going for interviews, good luck to you. As long as it is not one of the jobs that Mc Tai does. Then you would have to stand on the roof and chant slogans. Which can be fun....

I have been doing lots of research for my special project at work. It is a lot of work and I am really surprised at the amount of information that you can turn up on a subject. It just shows you how much you do not know and that noone can ever know everything. The internet is a good help though. Strangely, I watched the Brady Bunch movie yesterday night. Although not a great show, I can now understand the jokes made about this weird family. And that is always good, finding out about a whole new genre of jokes. I think that is really important because, who likes a person who does not really understand Star Wars jokes or dirty jokes or mother in law jokes or dumb blonde jokes ? These things I find are really important especially when you are trying to make conversations. I think I have read so many joke books, that I am getting quite good at quips and wisecracks. But it is really a conscious effort as I was telling some of my friends. You do not become sociable, good at jokes and well-versed in entertaining overnight. Rather, you have to make some effort, like reading up on important issues, learning jokes, watching how people act around you and blending in, observing mistakes and remember not to repeat them........the list goes on.......

It really is not easy trying to grow up, is it ? NiqBear was telling how that a life without drama is so much better than a life filled with drama. But then again, I do believe that everyone is living a drama. Some are just more boring...........
