4:21 AM williamjohn.shields: oh

little things

perpetually frustrated by one of my co-teachers

frustrated that i have three

we have a new principal

and the teachers built themselves

partly with their own one

we'll see though

in brighter news

on Friday i bought tickets for my flight to romblon

4:23 AM me: That's the trip to meet your friends?

4:25 AM williamjohn.shields: right

4:26 AM me: Office politic is always difficult; I have always found it to be incredible distracting - very difficult to concentrate on work while that is going on

williamjohn.shields: yeah

its just

it could be so much easier

if people thought about things

me: By the way I put you ' semester abroad photos on Flickr yesterday.

Ok, thanks

4:34 AM The Philippines blog is up and a lot entered but still private since it is not up-to-date with all the correspondence and chats.

4:35 AM I will try and open it so i that at least you can see it before it goes public

williamjohn.shields: ok, it doesn’t matter

but I’d like to see it

4:37 AM me: Well I don't want to go completely public until the correspondence is coherent and make sure nothing is in it that would offend anyone.

I thing I ca open it selectively
