X-rays in Sweden

today Heidi (emmas flatmate) who works as an 'under nurse' at the hospital asked me if i'd like to visit the x-ray department to see what going down. i was interested to see it coz in sweden they don't have radiographers but 'x-ray nurses'... i know the training is much different.

so i went there, and they stuck me in a uniform and i spent 2 hours helping them with thier patients and talkin about working in sweden... i looks very similar to being a english radiographer.

its raining heavy. ive seen the yeah yeah yeahs and danced to a shockingly bad ska/regae/trash band but had fun. it was like, 20 people on stage, and it was kinda messy. they had some guys just up there looking awkward and 1 guggy with a box that went 'boosh' when he it against his chest.
im staying with emmas pastor, and eating nice breakfasts. my parents come tomorrow for thier swedish visit... i didn't mention, im in Sweden...again.

ooo boy, im tierd, it suddenly came on me and feels like my inner head deflated. my eyes are now watering with the constant need for a yawn.

work .pt2

my dream last night was - i was walking down the street (posting books) when a car drove past but the driver was asleep... i ran and shouted and half closed my eyes as the car headed towards a house... the driver woke up and stopped before hitting the house.
she was young and had blood and puss and gloopy green bile soaked bandages wrapped around her abdomen arm and hand... and it stank. i asked her if she had seen a doctor, she said no. so i offered to take her to the hospital... we climbed into the car opened the windows wide and she directed me to a doctors surgury... i got a little suspicious to why she had directed me there coz it was late and everybody knows that it was going to be closed... she was like "oh my, look, its closed, oh shame lets go home"... i was like "no way, im taking you to A&E"
so we walked back to the car and she began taking her bandages off... it was then that i rememebered that i had herd about her condition before... it was a disease and highly contajus. she was trying to infect me!!! so i ran to the car but had no time to get in as she tryed to shove her pussy biley hand in my mouth.
i then ran down the street shouting "WA WA WA WA WA" but she had got in my car and was catching up to me fast!!! i knew i was about to ooze puss and bile and stuff soon! then i woke up, turned the lights on and sat scared for a bit.

work

I'm waay nasty dazed achy and so tierd... i feel i learnt something new about myself today... by choice i worked 11 hours. i guess if i want something done i just get on with doing doing doing it. and people have said im laid back... well i will be that when im done with this. for now im trying to keep my attention up so i don't do something stupid.

BEEEEEDD...

oh dear

today, aaa i got so many more books left to deliver aa aaaa,... i had a little but so so nice birthday meal last night, i got a book on how to illustrate kids books, the kooks, a picture frame (which i stuck a emma in ooo ooo, makes me feel cheesy but ooo ooo oh dear)
emma said "your taste is like a butt"... which was a little shocking to me. she explained that its a swedish phrase meaning that just like a butt, my taste is divided... nice nice nice.

Job

well, today i started my job. my job is posting Thomson phone books in letter boxes... i have 3 routes.
today was 'pick up' day... but i had no car (not back from MOT)... so my dad being nice and stuff drove me there during his lunch break.
it turned out that it was good that my car wasn't avalible and my dad was there... there was a huge magnitude of A LOT of books. it took me and my dad 3 trips (big car & trailer) to collect all the books which im roughly guessing without much thinking would take me 20 trips in my mini. things like that make me smile coz at first i was annoyed that i didn't have my car, but now i glad i didn't.
the dining room is now full of books, and my dad had to have a very very long lunch break.

Thomson local phone books used to have a cat as thier trademark... i guess they figured out that people might take more attention of thier book if they use a woman in a cat suit as thier trademark.

i like this job so far, its interesting seeing peoples houses, gardens and letter boxes... a smiley old lady said "I don't need one"
"are you sure"
"yes, im sure, i'll never use it"
"ok"
"ok"..."ok"..."ok"..."ok, go on then i'll have one"
this made me smile.

Heaven

these are just thoughts...

I herd that when married people get to heaven, they are no longer married...

so does that mean my parents won't be my parents? and my brothers aaa, but i like having brothers!! (other types of unique relationships)

and, adam and eve had a 'special relationship with each other' while still having a perfect relationship with God in the garden of eden... isn't that the way God made us? isn't that going to in heaven?

and if thats true... is there any point in man and woman in heaven (will we all be one sex?)... there is no need for "it is not good for man to be alone"(the bible)...

ok, im sure whatever its gonna be rad.

language

learning a new language is not all about replacing english words with foriegn words but a whole different way of speaking, structuring, wording, phrasing... i guess once i get into it all, i can choice ones again how i want to speak!

"Finns det någonting man kan göra där ute på landet?" meaning "is there anything one can do there out on the countryside?" ... sounds a little posh! so i guess i need to think posh before i translate my english when speaking swedish.

its a case of washing it, letting it dry and then a light 'fluffup' on the sides and front. but you need to be patient, and a little corshus.

Radiography, Cartoons and stuff

every hospital is a little different, the BRI is like a digitised, computerised production line... touch-screen button pushing and 'why do i need a degree to do this job??'... which is far from the idea i had of cranking knobs, darkrooms, chemicals and emerging with a first time quality image from all my proir hard head thinking!

Mike first taught me how to draw the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (they gave me the courage to try pizza)... and since then people have been wondering why I did sciency subjects and radiography insted of arty stuff... well! even though radiography has kinda disapointed me, i still see myself wanting to help people, and although i don't think i'm a 'super amazing' cartoonist/artist, i don't feel i need to go to college to learn it (but if i could, i would love love love to, im sure it would help me so much... maybe one day!!!)... so um there. thanks to anyone who has encouraged me with my drawings.
