Power belonged to the best fighters

First off I'd like to say that this post is not a copyright ingringement.
I'll be posting stuff from a book and nicked photos off of Google, but it's all for entertainment.

Anyways, I went down to the library yesterday and got a book called Tell Me Why.
And it's a rather interesting book.

Gold is so easy to hammer and shape that less than one gram of gold can be beaten into a sheet nearly two metres square.

A 0,3-metre cube of Uranium weighs over half a tonne. Uranium is the heaviest element found in nature. A kilo of Uranium contains as much energy as nearly three million kilos of coal.

Foil is any metal sheet that measures 0,1270 of a mmm or less. Aluminium is so malleable that it can be rolled into sheets of foil as thin as 0,00508 of a mm.

What is a coral? A chunk of coral is made of the skeleton of tiny marine animals called coral polyps. The polyp's skeleton grows outside its body. When the polyp dies, the skeleton is left.

How are seashells formed? As said earlier the shell is a part of an animal, a mollusc. It's the mollusc's skeleton and it is attached to it by muscles. The soft animal can never leave it's shell. The shell is made of a form limestone and is built by the mollusc itself. Certain glands in the mollusc are able to take limestone from the water and deposit it in tiny particles at the edge of, and along the inside of, the shell. As a mollusc grows insize, its shell increases in thickness and size. You can see the lines of growth that are marked by the ridges that run parallel to the outer edge. The colouring of the shell comes from some glands of the mollusc that contain colouring matter.

Neon lights. The fact is not all of them are lights made by glowing neon gas. Other gases, such as helium, argon, krypton and xenon, are also used in lights. Each gas gives out a different-coloured light when electricity is sent through it. The colour varies depending on the temperature, pressure and electric voltage. Neon gives out a red-orange light; argon gives out reddish-blue light; the light from helium is white, yellow or sometimes violet; from krypton it is yellow, green or pale violet; and from xenon it is either blue or blue-green.

What is the Sphinx? Actually, it is a monster that was common in the myths of ancient people. The Greeks thought of it as having the head of a woman, the body of a lion and wings. The Egyptians thought of it as a wingless lion with the head and breast of a man.

Who were the knights? They were the highest class of fighting men in Europe during the Middle Ages. The high position was partly due to the fact that during the early Middle Ages kings and governments had very little real authority. A knight did as he wished, because no one else was powerful enough to stop him.

There's a lot more in the book. That's just what I found interesting.

Yestrday was a bit of a crappy day. Felt sick most of the evening and today aswell.
Haven't been able to eat anything. Think it's getting a bit better now though.

I'm gonna install Sims 3 on this computer now cause the brother wants to play aswell. I hope the computer can take the game.
Anyways, I'm off so.
Oh and it rained yesterday! Whoop! I saw lightning and heard thunder and all. First time in a few years. Although I think I heard the thunder once in Ireland aswell.

Don't make what is not your problem your problem

So, today we tried going swimming again.

I think I kind of got motion sickness so I told my father to pull over so I could get out the car.

So I did and told him to drive on and take the others swimming.

Said I'd walk home.

It was nice and sunny so I didn't mind at all.

So my father and his wife started going on about how I can't walk along the motor way all alone.

Like, seriously.

It was day time and not a long way at all.

And then the wife came out the car and said how I set a bad example to the kids in the car.

Said if she lets me do what I want then her little son sees it and thinks he can do whatever he wants.

Like, whatever.

I'm twenty fucking four!!!

I don't need anyone telling me if I have to be in a car or not.

Hell, will she come and stop me from having sex aswell cause I might set a bad example to the 11 year old boy?! I mean if she says it's okay for me to do it then it must be okay for the 11 year old boy aswell!

Anyway, I don't understand what the big fucking deal is.

I felt sick, I got out the car and started walking back home.

They could have just minded their own damn business and go swimming.

Well, that just means that I won't be telling them anymore of my business and I will definitely not go anywhere with them.

Other than that I got a bite today.

My first one.

I meant to write about it yesterday but forgot.

There's so many damn flying things over here that want to suck your blood.

Seriously.

One little fucker went throught with it today. On me. I killed the fucker.

What else.

Oh yeah, I think I know where my love of trees came from.

There's so many trees all over the place in Estonia.

Like in Ireland if you looked over to the distance then all you could see was hills.

Here it's trees.

Oh and I saw a house today that used to be a doctor's office when I was about 3.

I think it's just a residental building now.

Was weird.

Another thing, before swimming I was weeding with dad's wife IR.

She said that when I was younger I loved weeding with her.

She said when I was younger than 10 I used to make up poems and stories when weeding.

Then when I was about 12 I sang all the time and after a while that got annoying. :D

Well she said when you have to listen to someone sing half the day it gets annoying.

Well yeah, that's that.

Oh and last night I started missing Ireland.

I texted "bf" and told him to call me when he's finished.

He did.

I was asleep though and had to whisper the "hello" cause I'm sharing room with dad at the minute.

I think the "bf" didn't hear me though.

He didn't say anything back and hung up.

Then texted saying that he didn't mean to call when I was asleep.

Have no credit to text him now.

And my battery's dead and I cannot find my charger.

Boo!

Yeah... off to Facebook now.

Had to make an account.

A lot of Irish people are on it.

Okay, dad's wife is calling me for tea

What a day it was.
Went swimming and played a bit of badminton.
Badminton sucked cause the rackets were so crappy.
These rackets here make the Tesco ones look professional.
Then went for a walk.

Took some pics aswell, but they're on my dad's camera.

Oh and I love the tress and forests here.
They're all over the place.
Maybe that's why I like trees so much.

Also met a girl who will send me links of colleges and courses.
Woohoo.
Not bad for a first day.

Plus, the last time I was on holiday here I had been gone for year and a half.
When I came backthen everything looked so different.
This time though, after being three years away everything feels like I've always been here and never left the country.

Okay, dad's wife is calling me for tea.
Laters.

Several

So after several nervous breakdowns I managed to get to my home country.

And what a glorious country it is.

I changed my mind several times on the night of the flight.

I was too scared to fly.

Then some kid got sick when we (me, a woman and her son) were waiting for the plane after going through the gate thing that detects metal or something.

So, like we were very much ready to go on the plane and the kid got sick.

I was so disgusted I decided to leave, go back to my Ireland home.

The woman got a hold of me and wouldn't let go, that's why I boarded the plane.

I told the plane people that I'm super nervous and if they had anything for it.

I got a pill off them.

Think it was a tranquiliser.

During the take off I just closed my eyes and held on to the woman.

I was scared through the whole flight.

I started to feel better when we were landing.

Loads of other stuff happened but it's just too negative and depressing I don't want to talk about it.

Well, it's all about me being scared of flying.

Anyways, here I am now and here I will stay.

I was collected by my mum, her man and my brother L.

We drove out the capital and stopped at a place that served food.

I had two cheese-tomato-cucamber sandwiches and some of my brother's chips.

That was the most I'd eaten in days.

Then we headed out to my father's house.

On our way there we passed my father's workplace.

Well, I kind of knew he worked at a place called something like it.

I went it and asked for him.

Luckily, it was his workplace.

He was at a meeting when we got there so we had to wait for him a a bit.

I talked to a man there and said I'm my dad's daughter and haven't seen him in years.

All went well.

He came out, we hugged, he asked how I was doing, I said I was tired and hadn't slept all night, then he said to go home and relax and I said see you later then.

So we arrived at my dad's place.

My other brother was out, the one that lives with my dad like.

He recognised us straight away.

There's also a young girl here aswell.

She has the same name as me and is my father's wife's sister's daughter.

Later on her brother will come here aswell.

Just for summer holiday.

And once everyone leaves, the family will be me, my dad, his wife IR and my brother A.

I'm just gonna stay here for a while.

I planned to go with my mum, her man L and my brother L, but everyone told me to stay here and relax.

I also planned to goto the nearest biggest town to get a haircut and buy my own computer (I'm using my brother A's computer. He's on it non-stop). (I only got on it cause IR told him to go out, cause it's too nice out to be inside all day.)

And yeah, so I planned to go with my mum cause my mother lives closer to my hometown.

Before going off to Ireland I used to live in a town called Tartu with my mum and co.

But they moved houses.

Now they live outside the town.

Yeah I wanted to go to Tartu to see my friend and her baby.

I guess I'll do it one of these days.

Tomorrow I should be going to Viljandi to get a haircut and buy my own computer.

Like what the hell is going on with the prices in Estonia?!

I bought a facescrub for 80 moneys and a computer costs 150 moneys.

I mean that is totally normal in an abnormal country with abnormal pricing system.

Whatever, I'll just wash my face with a soap and buy an even more expensive and better computer.

I just need to play the sims!

Other than that.

I'm absolutely wrecked.

I slept for like an hour and a half.

Then me and IR went to see if a woman needs us to collect her strawberries.

She said someone else was coming today but we can go tomorrow.

Was good though, cause it's very hot today and you wouldn't want to be gardening more than a few minutes in this weather.

And that's quite a climate change for me.

I mean it was nice and sunny in Ireland but the wind was so high and cold.

And it kept showering several times throughout the day.

I think we might go swimming today when my dad gets back from work.

I told him I'll just sink to the bottom cause I'm too tired to move myself in the water.

I'll just go along anyway.

Strut around in my bikini and scare the locals with my pale bubble butt.

Yeah...I'll just leave it at that.

Have to be quick before my brother comes back inside and wants to play one his games.

I think it was something like Alexander or Some Run Thing.

I dunno.

Oh and another thing.

I cannot find my camera and I'm so bummed about it.

I'd be pissed off but I'm too tired to feel that kind of amount of a feeling.

I absolutely wanted to take pics of the place we had our little breakfast.

It was like a shop-caffe type of place, we ate outside.

Alright so.

I'll wrap it up.

Hopefully I can take loads of pics with my phone and upload some. :)

Oh and just in case any moderators or admins of my forum are reading this - I had my username and password on the automatic login thingy in Ireland so I never had to sign in manually.

And I have no clue what my password is and I can't sign in til I remember it.

Gah, everyone's a bastard today!

Well, today has been an old crappy day.

Very depressing.

I dunno what tricks the "bf" is pulling it's not working for me.

And I can't recall one time I broke a promise.

If he wants it this way, he gets it this way.

I'm gone tomorrow so whatever.

I just have to buy another suitcase tomorrow.

I'm so all over the place at the minute.

My room is so messy and I'm so so so depressed.

And I asked my mother yesterday to give me a call today.

She hasn't done it yet and I'm sure she won't.

Gah, everyone's a bastard today!

I'm just in bits cause I'm dreading the flight so much.

And there's no one I can caomplain to. No one to express my worry and fear to.

Damn bastards.

Gutted.

Alright, I'll try to get my things together so...
