Fuckin Puzzle

This is the puzzle I just finished! It started a few months ago when my friend came to stay with me for a few days while she left her husband. I have never done a puzzle before, so I was pretty clueless. We started it on a small table, and as Antartica started to form, I saw that it was going to be way to big for this small table. After Antartica, and most of the borders and little of Russia was formed, my friend moved out, and puzzle construction came to a halt for about two months. It sat on my kitchen table mocking me. The instructions said that you should start with the oceans(they have every country written down, along with captial and population in alpabetical order). I tried that and it really didn't work, so I gave up for a while longer. Then, one morning I was laying in bed (I hate getting out of my soft bed in the morning) and I decided enough was enough! The puzzle needs to be finished, or put away forever!!

So I went out that night, not sure where or how, and ran into a friend of mine. (boy) I have know this person for long long time, party kine friend. So we were party party disco disco, and he came to my house. I showed him the puzzle and said how I need to finish or be done forever with this fucking puzzle because the sight of it day in and day out is making me feel like a loser more and more. He informs me that he loves puzzles and in fact is very good at them. I tell him about the ocean theory, and he says no no no. That is all wrong, you must start with the countries and move out to the oceans. I said WELLLLL that makes more sence to me, so before you know it, the 20% finished puzzle went to 75% in a few hours. This then gave me the confidence and drive to finish what I call the FUCKIN PUZZLE!

I learned so much from this whole experiance tho. Not only geography, but a lot about life in general. Life is a giant puzzle that sometime the answers and solutions are right in front of you, but you are just looking at it the wrong way. If I didn't have my friend show me a different perspective, I never would have finished. Now that I have, I am soooo happy!! hehe WHOOP

May I introduce you to....................................
