I said, I don't know, why Margory keeps calling me kristy.

Cute comeback CC.

Hi Gillian, I bet that you are in for a whole host of excuses as you continue to teach. You should keep a journal/log of the excuses. How's the Hoodia?

Yes I agree, good comeback CC!

Don't worry, if there are any funny excuses, I'll put them in here!

I have just posted in your journal I think Sheila about the Hoodia... but for the record...

It came yesterday and it is working the same as phen did for me. Rachel wanted it mainly and she lost two pounds since yesterday... which is pretty amazing considering she is already thin... but she just wants to lose a few more pounds so she can get into some modelling!

I tried it today as an experiment as I don't really need to lose any more weight, but as a maintenance thing and man, it works really well! I have completely lost my appetite and have to make myself eat which is what it was like when I first went on phen! What I like about it, is that it does not have the side effects like phen, for example my racing heart.

I really did a lot of research though guys as I had heard that 80% of the Hoodia products out there, although they might have a bit of Hoodia in them, were not pure Hoodia or not very strong, etc. and so most of the products did not actually work. This is pure Hoodia with no other additives or other ingredients... I even saw the import paperwork from the chemist who is getting it here. He is a compounding chemist so he makes it up into capsules here in Australia.

You take 2 400mg capsules twice a day... this morning I took it and had to force some breakfast down at 10.30am. It is weird really as this happened with phen. You don't feel hungry and also you have no appetite so either way, eating becomes irrelevant when you feel like that, you know? What is the point, sort of thing. Anyway, I am not going to be taking too many of them as I don't really want to lose any more but great for Rachel!!!

There are three types of Hoodia in the US apparently which are the real deal... I was reading all about it on the internet. Anyway I will keep you all posted.

Just a quick story...(Oh okay maybe not so quick!!!)
These Middle Eastern students are a hoot!! I'm telling ya!!! Between them and my daft husband, I had the most stupid grin all over my face today!

We were focusing on descriptive writing today... anyway as I was giving out the paper for the exercise they had to do which was to describe their home town to me so I could picture it in my mind's eye... one of the four down the back asked if they could write about deserts and camels... I said yes. Big mistake.

In the meantime, Steve is emailing me telling me about the new leather executive chairs and chair mats that were delivered and he said that he assembled them in one hour. When I questioned this, he said they were 'blow up' chairs and should we sent them back then? and that our office looked like the bridge in Startrek's Voyager and that Rachel had been plugged in to recharge in her bedroom like 7 of 9!! Well I found that all rather amusing (perhaps you had to be there... or at least involved...) and started chuckling!!!

Anyway I collected the exercise in from the students.... and the Middle Eastern students had ALL talked about camels.

One said he had a Louis Vitton saddle (I cannot spell these names sorry ) and he put on his Gucci sunglasses after he had sipped warmed camels milk (eeeeooooowww!!) and went off to check his oil well! Another one talked of his green oasis in the desert where he was born and drunk camel's milk and burned Frankincense to 'make the nice smell' and yet another talked of drinking camels milk on his way to his father's oil refinery to fill up his car for free!!!

So there's me saying... 'do you guys really drink camel milk?'
and while the class (and me) are in fits of laughter... we find that the next class have found an opening in the sliding doors and there are about 5 faces looking through... either they are without a lecturer or they want to join our class (as we are the ones having all the fun ) so I waved... another big mistake.

Another 12 or so heads came through and the WHOLE FREAKING PARTITION fell down and someone said 'Holy Sh-t!' so we had a riot of laughing and one of the students had to try and re-hang this thing!!! OMG... this afternoon was just soooo funny in so many different ways...

So with the rehung partition in place, with gaps and heads still looking through, I try to resurrect my class which was virtually impossible but..........................

At the end of it all, I had the WORST subjective descriptive writer in the class who described a picture of a cat as "It look pregnant" (yes it was a student...) come out with something poetic like... "this (white) cat has had a cup of milk poured over it from it's mother's womb, who is trying to turn it into an angel!" It took about 15 attempts from him to convey the word 'angel' as the pronunciation was WAY WEIRD but his sentence got a round of applause from the class... and it was well deserved!!!

Ahhhh!!! Sigh!!!! Just another day at the office!!!

I'm glad you had a fun day yesterday! The class sounded hysterical. I didn't quite understand the thing about Rachel - 7 of 9??
