More Than Meets the Eye!

Hello kids of a far and distant region. I have been busy the last few days working on my Curriculum Vitae and getting a hold of contacts to help me get a job so times have been less then thrilling sitting in front of a computer in a foreign land. Some people have been a little concerned (parents) about finding a job (even if those people don't know how to pick up a telephone) but I do not want anyone to stress. I have uploaded a video to show you all how hard I have been preparing and training for me to acquire such a thing you people call a J-O-B.

Job Training

Yesterday was gorgeous here and as it was about noon time when my internet connection went out. I waited for it to come back as there is not much job searching I can do without it. After waiting for a bit longer I decided if it wasn't going to work that it was time to hit up the beach!!! Yeah! So I totally Hans Solo'ed it to the beach on Chris's Haro bike. Which if you could have seen me, I looked like some sort of a combination of PeeWee's Big Adventure / Shriners Family Circus. Had I not eaten my Sailor Cereal that morning I might not have made it to the beach via the little circus bike.(On a side note most of my cereal is made from the company "Sanitarium" which I find to be an odd company name yet I feel strangely at home.)There is another picture here of a bike trail right by the ocean which is a really fun ride.

One of my buddies thought that going to NZ was a "pipe dream" so I sent him a little video. However I liked the video because of the waves so I included it here if you so desire.Pipe Dream



I just got back from the movie theater where we went and saw TRANSFORMERS! It was pretty cool seeing my childhood idols finally make it to the big screen where their story needed to be told accurately and concisely. It was a lot of work but we pulled through it together. I'm pretty sure that movie doesn't open in America until July 3rd.....hmmmm.....The theater was way different from the U.S. There was so much room I couldn't even kick the guys chair in front of me if I tried, we had assigned seating and a full bar outside of the theatre. And apparently that was a "crappy" theater. Either way, the Transformers were sick.

Other than that I am just talking to telemarketers and asking them questions about the country that I don't know. It really throws them for a loop and they usually answer with a very professional,"I don't have that answer right here in front of me Sir". After I get enough amusement out of them I tell them I am from America and conversation ends rather abruptly.

I will mingle with you cats later.
Cheers
