well it was a very busy week indeed
hanging out with nz sarah as well as working full time
we didn't see a mid summer nights dream but
caught up with the new tunes of joshowenband
supergreat
and had dinner at southbank - place where there are lots of nice restaurants on the south bank of the yarra river
and hung wit da owens in melton before dropping sarah to the aiport earli sat morning.

yesterday saw the incredibles. loved it.
what would your superpower be if you could have one? think i'd have healing powers, where if i was cut i could just heal.
more importantly, what supertalents do you have that you can be using right now?



why men shake hands
Thursday, January 06, 2005 @ 13:22 by Alana.

ever wondered why?
i found this comment on a computer game website and is the best explanation:

Sinistre is the latin for Left Hand.
The history of shaking hands: The reason we shake hands is to show that we are not holding a weapon in our hands and thus come in peace. Which is why we link the word sinister in english to being untrusful, dark or grim, because in those days, the left handed warriors were not to be trusted as they could shake with their right hands and stab with their left.



'appy new year!
