just another blog entry

it was pouring outside, and the wind was howling when the tenants of #15 were praying Dhuhr about an hour ago. weird as it is, i'm actually glad that it has finally began to rain here in Cork. Winter has been way too bright with no rain that i started to worry about global warming and some other stuff. well i just love to worry about a lot of things.

we're going on a mission after this: to find our big green household refuse wheelie bin. has anybody seen it? it look a bit like this:


every Sunday everyone in the neighborhood would take out these wheelies and put it outside of their gates for the Refuse Guys to take early on Monday. if this Monday is for refuse, next Monday is for recycle stuff and so on (dont you just love Ireland, shes just so env-friendly =) ). Well last Monday was a Refuse Monday so Dayah the Refuse Girl of the week pulled our wheelie bin and left it outside of our house late that Sunday.

A couplea days later Mas the Refuse Girl of this week began to ask around about our green wheelie, goin all

"wheres our tong sampah?? wheres our tong sampah??" or something like that.

and i jes said "entah? depan rumah kot?"

then i woke up this morning and walked down the stairs to see the front door wide open. the hallway was a mess because Khaza was vacuuming the kitchen and she took out all the chairs from the kitchen. anyway Dayah suddenly walked in and announced that our green wheelie bin is officially missing. she said that she went peeping in other people's wheelie bins* and somebody saw her doing that and might have mistaken her for some homeless looking for food.

she also said when she was walking to class early last Monday she saw the Refuse Guys pulling our green wheelie in front of the neighbours house so they can pick it up with the huge truck together with our neighbour's wheelie bin.

so now we'll have to go door-to-door and ask for our green wheelie bin because the City Council sticker on it is worth hundreds of Euros and our landlady would prolly kill us if we lost it.

and if we still dont find it we'll have to paste "Have you seen our Green Wheelie Bin?" posters all over the neighbourhood.

oh Green Wheelie Bin, where for art thou?

*its a long story :p


mission update: we didnt find our green bin but instead we stole a black bin that doesnt seem to belong to anyone, but has the City Council sticker onnit. this is due to a strong suggestion from Mr House-#11-We-Forgot-To-Ask-Whatshisname. we should definitely bake a cake for him after the exams to thank him for his brilliance.
