Lay Zee

22 August 2006 by kristarella

Who is Zee and where can I find him or her right? Wrong. I’m talking about someone at work who seems to be lazy. Not sure who but they keep writing on the board that we need to order stuff when there are at least two boxes full in the storeroom. The boxes are open […]

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
