Those crazy germans!

More oldschool lols. Have to watch for a few minutes before it gets anywhere though.

Busy Busy

Working on an assignment with my internet shaped to 64kb's was pretty frustrating.

update : Internet is back to full ADSL2+ speeds, and I'm happily finishing my essay. Hoorah.

This is pretty old hat now, but still brings me lols.

Super-effective!

Wiifit leaves me sore and walking funny. Damn you Wiifit! DAMN YOU!

Enjoying the Now

I have toast with dip.
I have hot mug of tea.
I have friends to chat to.
I have trackpants and ug boots.

I have a lot of good things going on. :)

sleep T_T

I really ought to goto bed earlier...

Hangovers T_T

May have had a few to drink last night. May be feeling quite ill right now. May be blaming it not so much on the booze, but the snack foods that I consumed.

Let's get this *insert event here* started!

I had a blog once before, posted about as often as I felt like it, which was could be days-weeks-months. Generally only my dedicated pals used to read it. Who knows who'll read this?

Starting this blog as I'm @ UWA doing a unit called Self.Net. As part of this unit, all the students participate in a tutorial blog. I'm going another step and will try to write a blog, for at least as long as the unit runs, lets see... updating at least once a week. Chances are it'll be somewhat like my previous blog in that it'll be a bit of link filtering, but mainly my own personal crap.

Link filtering? Posting links to stuff that makes me raff!

What's this Self.Net unit about? So far... basically about... identity/what it is to be human/cyborgs/cyberpunk/blogs. A bunch of stuff really. I'm yet to decide how much I really like it (and as you can probably guess, I'm yet to understand what it's really about). I should probably re-read the unit guide... but that is effort.

What else about me? I suppose I could explain a bit seeing as it's a first post. I'm also doing a unit on game design, which I'm finding fairly interesting and enjoyable. The first tute was 2 hours spent playing board games. Awesome. Every unit should do that.

I'm also doing the 'Arts Practicum' which is basically work experience for arts students, because lets face it, our qualifications aren't quite as specific as say... an engineer. They can say "I design stuff that fills this role, and will perform well in-blah blah blah blah." Arts students? "Uh, I can write good essays...". Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. My 'work experience' is actually with a local game development studio. I was pretty stoked about that. Being an arts student and not say... a 3d modeller (Blender is cool!), I'm basically doing research for them. It's good to be involved.

I think I've had enough writing for now, I could ramble on but nobody needs that, do they?
