troops serving at Gallipoli in Turkey. they keep for
months and mail well.

raisins or soften the dried fruit in very hot water
for half an hour, drain) and 2 tablespoons honey wheat

Am i happy? Nee, am not
I'm stucked at this office with bad management who doesn't care shit abt staff's welfare, all they can tell u is to "lie" to customers, try to persaude them to join membership, just be nice to them, work long hrs, hard to apply leave, maintain call level while u sit there and get screamed at everyday.
Why am I still stucked here then since everything sucks here, now I hear that they are gonna fire some of the older staff as well as those they deemed incapable of sitting here n voicing out, weird place where they only keep ppl who knows how to suck up to the bosses & flirts with them...
I realli dont mind fired for once lol, at least they will pay me to leave. All those 3yrs of hardwork getting paid back alittle extra ( they givin only 1.2 mnth for every year u worked!!) How pathetic!!!
I wld leave if im rich & not worry abt paying bills but yeah as most ppl knows, tats rare! Most of us are stucked with jobs that we are unhappy with.
Well if you have good colleagues, its still bearable cos you can joke ard & kill time off, supporting one another, coverign for one another, here, the collegues jus wanna dig ur personal info and use them against u..
Like me, i took half a day yesterday to cut my hair n run errands, they keep pestering me trying to dig out if its true! Geez.!!
Argh, I wish IND wld give us a reply soon, at least there be some directions ahead..
Tot of life wifout Ray yesterday, felt so sad to think on that, I cld still remember the sadness we had when we had to say goodbyes at the airport... I miss him so much!!!!
The tot of growing old together, learnin life together, well I know it wont be bed of tulips lol but I do pray that God Lord will have mercy & grant us both strength, love, patience, forgiveness heart & lots lots of love to go thru life together. Pls Watch over us Lord!
Hmm how long more do I have to be stucked in this place???? God Knows hehehehe

Sigh, its been so long since any nieuws frm IND :(
Mom spoke to me abt Dad not payign the conservance tax, & the newspapers & the gas....
I know she hints for me to help but I really am in a dilema..
N abt the paper werk that we have to go thru once I'm there, the application of Residence Permit etc
Had Ray to chck things out, mus remember to get another set of my brith cert & ROM certified, also asked him to find out if we need to make appts and the documents he require for application for residence permit.
Also I have to take the TB health check & they need prove of the relationship.. hmm have to ask Ray to check if we need to make appt or docs to sign the samenliving contract etc
Well I am getting highly irritated of werking here now, everyday u get screamed at for reasons that is not caused by you. Just cos the management of this company has poor & lousy regulations that hinder werk, I can't help them but tell them abt the rules & regulations, and wat do i get in the end, more abusive customers hurling insults at me. SIGH - I NEED TO GET OUTTA HERE!!
Lord, I am caught in btwen home & moving, I wanna move yet I am afraid of financial difficulties & adpating & also worried abt how my family is gonna manage here, likewise if i don't move, I am stucked with a nagging mom & family burden of supporting them & him, while all the time, my bro is gonna b the one who gets the house. I am worried Lord that he wld squander his time & sell the house & $$ etc.. Have mercy pls!

MAjor sucky day!!
Ray went out partying even though I had strongly objected it cos now i have one less saturday wif him.
Well to him, its hey, its a great party wif great deejays, i needed to have fun n destress, n its free so yeah hell ill go!
But hier, im feeling, geez its taking time away frm us, not as if we have alot alreadi, everyday of 1/2hr n wkends of 4-5hrs & im alreadi saying its not enuff cos of the long distance but yet it doesnt' seem to bother him alot. He jus keeps saying, well u still have most of sat/sun so why can't i jus take one out?
Well yeah technically it sounds tat I'm so unreasonable but reality is, at this moment, I am going thru such a phase of depression, worrying abt the move, if it will be approved in the first place, n if it does, will I be able to cope wif changes n nederlands leren. I have to be accessed every half yearly/yearly n if i don seem to intergrate well, i may get kicked back home. The pressure that u have to perform jus so u cld stay wif ur love one is demanding!
And his pay seems not enuff for both of us, him having to pay mortage, bills & his study loan etc, we wont have enuff to save up even, and lest talk abt having a wedding & kids, how can we manage???
Am i damn suay or wat, to end up wif men who are not the regular pay working men who have savings & car & house!
N if he looses his contact? he doesnt have savings also, what I have wont be keeping us afloat too long.
Shld I go thru all these Lord?? I felt that you have left me... I wont blame you cos I'm not worthy as I have sinned against you, going against what I shld have done.. but I beg U have mercy & keep watch over me & my loved ones even thru all these Lord, according to your mercy & faithfulness cos I am unworthy for ur blessings. Yet i know wifout U, my life will b cursed, and if it is, Lord, let me b the one cursed & spare my loved ones. Pls Lord Pls!
Well Lord pls show me if I shld go forth with moving cos I am havin my reservations now
