The Diary Of John
What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy? - Gandhi

Furniture..

The other day we bought some new furniture in the sales here. Wardrobes and things. They are flat-packed, slef build stuff. Here though in Brasil the stores provide a free service for you and send people to your house to build them for you. These two guys arrived this morning and within 30mins it was all up and ready to be used. Nice, as it saved me the stress and of course the store are providing someone with a job too. From the bundle of papers they had in their hands those two guys looked as though they had a busy day today.

Now we just have to fill it up with stuff and see if we are going to need more storage space..

Wet..

Well its pissing it down here at the moment, i hope it slows down before i leave the school later on as i already got soaked once today.

We were to buy two new cells today but after arranging to pick up the phones this morning and making an appointment we found out that the woman wasnt there and that some other attendant tried to charge me three times more for the same cell phone. what a rip off!! We told them that we would just buy from somewhere else, in the UK people can buy a cell phone for 30 bucks but here im sure they change the price every hour or so. Shame i cant get one in the UK and just bring it here and have it converted.

On the way home there were three sort of semi homeless people on the bus. They are people from a group who invade private land and when the government gives them some land to live on they sell it and then invade somewhere else causing as much trouble as they can at the same time. I think they call themselves Sem Terra or something like that. Man they were fair humming, i had to shower and change my clothes before coming to work hehehe. Its sad i know but man it was really bad, the sort of smell that makes you wanna decorate the floor of the bus with the contents of your stomach. I think they are around at the local hospital or something now, maybe they give out prescription baths there, who knows? ;-)
