one week down

Well a new semester and a new outlook. The outlook is the rising sun! As I'm now getting up at the crack of dawn instead of the crack of high noon.

This semesters work looks very interesting, with fun topics like how to socialise on the Internet, turning a computer game into another form of entertainment. This of course will make up for the boring stuff, like polices and I did hear the rude word of FOI mentioned.

As for outside Uni, I've brought myself a food processor so I can make my own soup. I made a batch last week end. It turned out really smooth and yummy. This weekend I'll make a batch of cauliflower soup. When summer comes along I'll try making a cheese cake.

Long time no type

Hi All
Yes I am still alive!

Just a quick catchup. I passed all my units with 2 credits and 2 distinctions! The new semester has just started this week. As most of my current units deal with new media and the social side of the Internet, we have been encouraged to use different mediums to present our assignments. Stay with me, I am going somewhere with this. Some of these assignments can be in a blog page format. So I've created 2 new blogs (I'm undecided as yet whether to make them public or not)now here is the bit you will like, if I'm coming in here to update my uni blog pages, I will be popping in here to update this one too!!!!

take care

All is well

Hi,
Wow, has it been that long from my last post.

Well I'm on holidays now! :)
I felt my exam went well and that I'll pass all my units, (but you allready new that)
I do not gets the results until July 6. so I'll let you know then how I went. In the mean time I'm playing lots of computer games, spending more time in Second Life and doing a spot of house work, come to think of it that's what I'll be doing for the next few weeks!

I'm getting my wisdom teeth (the ones on the right) pulled at the end of the month, so needless to say I'm not looking forward to that. :(

Just quick update

Hello Everybody

Just a quick update for those of you who do not see me in SL, twitter or google chat.
All is going well, I have one week of uni left then a study week before I have to sit one 2 hour exam. I would have to say I'm even surprising myself with what I have achieved.

For my holidays, all of about two weeks, what with getting 2 wisdom teeth extracted and having 2 weeks of prac work in a library. I'll be getting about 2 weeks of actual holiday, in that time I am going to catch up with all my friends over some long lunches.

take care

Did they know? I think they did

If you didn't already know, sadly my sis-in-law lost one of her cats in a road accident :(
They buried Smokey in the front yard and place a concrete slap over his grave. Later when my sis-in-law went out to the front yard, she noticed the two other cats sitting on the concrete slab.
I would like to think that they knew Smonkey was under there and that they were paying their respects for there friend. Or they could be just getting the warmth from the slab.

Uni is going ok, just, I've had my moments, the thought of chucking the towel in did cross my mind, or at least only doing 3 units a semester, but the thought of dragging it out even longer is putting me off too.

Back to the books I go

Bad Mummies

What is happening to society!

Within the last 3 days I've read MSN articles claiming that mothers have killed heir own children.

Neuter them I say. They do not deserve to breed. What the hell neuter any, mass murderer or terrorist too.

Soap Box - Breeding Relatives

Hi
What am I about to say some people may disagree with and say I'm a selfish bitch. Well that is your problem.

You know the old saying "you can choose your friends but you are stuck with relatives" is so true. For years my older brother, his family and I have had this arrangement, we only see and talk to each other at Christmas, (don't get me wrong, it's not that I hate him, it's just that the only thing we have in common is that we have the same parents)

Now the agreement has shifted, and I don't like it. Now it's come to his families birthday parties. I'm sorry I've liked the arrangement we have had for the last 15years. It's been You don't call me for my birthday and I wont call you for yours. (I've lived in this house for 6 years and he only visited once; the day I moved in)

I'm a stingy old fart, now I have to fork out for presents, I'm been bullied into forking out for a present when I'm not even turning up to the shindig. You see they live on the other side of town and it takes me about an 1.5hour journey each way. So for a party that is lasting an hour, it's not practicle for me to turn up(plus I was given 2 days notice for the party & I have a massive assignment due the next day). But as I made the effort and turned up to gave her brother his present for turning 16, it would seem rather political incorrect for me not to give her one, after all she's just a kid, and I have the problem with her father. I have also been bullied into turning up to the Mother's party next month(which will involve an over night stay at mum's and dad's; as it is not safe to travel at night on public transport)

Kids are expensive, and I don't have any!!!
