Today was Sock Khim's last day. She is headed back to Singapore which I have confirmed through Internet research is indeed both a city and a state. In broken but very understandable English she wrote us all a sweet farewell note that left me, and I think everyone else with a warm fuzzy feeling. She included a personal note for everyone. Mine was something like "Graham you always take great pictures." Such wonderful sentiment; I think all of us HVOCers are going to miss her. She also gave me some candy from back home which she said she could get more for me if I liked it.

Is That a Chicken?
I love things like this, I mean... I have no idea what it is, although I am pretty sure that is a chicken on the label. Can you imagine marketing a candy in America or Australia with the picture of a chicken? I wonder how the chicken is related to the edible substance contained within.

Sock Khim reminded me that I have this interest in photography which I have failed rather miserably to enjoy recently. So I IMed my friend e to see if we could get together and be camera geeks on Sunday. I'm going to drive down to Jersey and show her how to do color correction in Photoshop and she's going to going to show me her new scanner. I hope eventually to be able to afford a nice film scanner and I think the type she has would be a good candidate.

Meanwhile I have to start thinking about the future.

Festivus

So, Brad hosted Festivus this year. We had airing of grievances when Rachel threatened us with a long rusty pole while complaining about lazy students. Brad carped about Teachers. Then we opened presents and spitefully stole the good gifts from each other. There was some alcohol and the punching of a piñata involved. Those two may have been related in some causal way. Not sure.

Raining Candy
Then it started raining candy... somebody said "It's a Festivus Miricle!" I think Brian was in rapture.

Piñata Hat
Next we passed around the piñata hat while I took pictures. This is what I do. I take pictures.

On The Couch
Oh yeah, Paul and the two women he brought were about this close to having a threesome right there on Brad's couch. They left early. There was absolutely no speculation when they left. About anything. Why are you looking at me like that?

There are some more pictures here:
