Something About It....

Hello folks what is new and a happening? Well Old Man Robb is just about to submit his lesson plan for Module Four of my education course...its been a long old chapter this time... jeesh its gonna be late into the summer/ fall when i wrap up all three parts of this course i think. There is a video to watch for this class, but i cannot view the video until after i hand in my assignment. Oh...by the way i also handed in my application to AEON....yes i know i said it and said it and said it about possibily and kids this means just possibily working for another english company in a foreign country again...but i have to face it...everyone has to grow up sometime...i want this time to be different...made lots of mistakes the first time over in Japan..i have to be on a budget.. Old Man Robb didn't budget last time he was there and there were a few times where i was well...broke...and there was no excuse for it..i know NOVA was withholding pay on me, but i had no excuse..

Second of all...i really didn't go and see as much of Japan as i could have..spent alot of time in internet cafes, being a hermit and it wasn't till near the end that i came out of my shell and started to do stuff, but by then it was a little too late and i do not have much photographic proof of my time there...this is something i kind of corrected when i went to S Korea, that every weekend i would go see somerthing or do something and i would document it. Of course there were lots of things that i regret about S Korea as well...things i didn't mean to do but did...why? Questions i still don't know the answers to... we all make mistakes, sometimes it is best just for forget about them and move ahead....

Above are two of the cooler things i saw in Japan at the Wax Museum located at the Tokyo Tower, wax figures of Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi and Jimi Hendrix...

Well Thursday night i went to see the Axemen play SMU in the AUS Semi-Finals at Acadia Arena...whatta game, the score was 2-1 and SMU outshot the Axemen by a large margin..game 2 goes tonight in Wolfville, i have to say that the Axemen didn't seem as on to me as they could have been, and SMU seemed sharp after eliminating Moncton in a close quarter-final match-up. I could babbled on and on about the attendence, but lots of people were home watching Team Canada demolish the Russians... however what would you rather watch? A blow out? or a great, close, fast skating hockey game? Of course many don't like blow outs, but Team Canada-Russia seemed to be an exception to the rule as people seemed to take great joy in watching Russia go down...however i think it would be nice to see people at Game 2 of the AUS semi's tonight, the Alumni Room has the tv going so people can drink beers (Not Keith's...ARGH!!!!) watch the Axemen & SMU and the Team Canada game at the same time...

Before the game i stopped into the Mud Creek for a brew...i know its been there for a year, but since i was in S Korea last year it is still new to me...anyways service was really good as always and i KNEW it was always an awesome idea to put a bar n grill nice and close as humanly possible to Acadia Arena.. i always thought it would do well as it is close and people don't have to go all the way down to the Vil...well the Vil is not really that far, but in cold ass weather it makes a difference believe me...of course the whole way up i listened to the Ramones "All The Stuff and More" from 1990 which was the Ramones first two albums, "Ramones" and "Leave Home" on one CD.

Before i do go there is something i should address i thinks...i had someone tell me the other day that i was too free...now tell me..what the hell does that really mean? Why do people who barely even take the time out of their oh so busy schedule have to talk behind my back? And to think that it will not get back to me? Talking about how i should be settled down..be married and with children like everyone else...when the hell are people going to figure it out eh? That Robert Reid Hawley...yes the Robert Reid Hawley is NOT like everyone else...i am not the status quo...i have goals, things that i wanna do and dammit i am not going to rest until i get them...i like doing what i do...i like going to different countries and teaching and experiencing new things, i am going to like what i like and do what it is that i like to do...i am not ready to settle down, i do not want to settle down and im sure as hell not taking no for an answer either..remember Acadia ...yes my lovely Acadia turned me down for their education program..so what do i do? I go in the backdoor....what i am taking counts as an education credit and volia! I am making A- and above...i can't cut it? Take a look at yourself...what do you see? I didn't think so....

Anyways folks that is another rant for now..have a good one...
