Life in the geek lane

random ramblings.....

23.3.02

god, its saturday night and im out at the uni with a friend. I have been tiling most of the day and am buggered, sheesh im unfit... anyway...



my blog is a bit lonely at the moment, this little stint without a phone/net access is killing me for sure, damn.... Ive been flying through cocoa though, which is good.



*tired*, So much stuff goin on, i need to get it all sorted, Ill get my phd forms underway on tuesday after seeing my supervisor on monday, once those are in i will apply for wwdc, *sigh* and wait.



Im looking at a new bag for my ibook, check out STM for a look. Im not sure which one to get, i was gunna get one of the original 'alley' ones, but i had a look in the shops and they are too small, like theres not enough room to carry other stuff.. anyway, at the moment i am ummming and ahhhing over the smaller 'parachute' type one. I think it would be the go.



While i was in the shop i noticed they had a heap of new posters up so i asked what happened to the old ones and she told me they through them out!!! arrrr!!!!!, so anyway i told her id like em to hang around and stuff, and she went out the back and got me a big flash new imac poster *sigh*, ha ha lol *damn im a geek*...



I heard from a friend that some people have been given their WWDC scholoships over in america, mmmm thats pretty cool, i have to wait a bit longer yet... *sigh*



ok!, enough, time to use the uni banwidth a bit LOL

21.3.02

*yawn* sitting in the office here at work and its boring... waitng till tuesday to see a client... Am doing lots of cocoa stuff though which is cool.

Some company toy things come today - hats, pocket knives, cups, keyrings, and little squishy stress balls... ive been juggling a few and bouncing them off the wall, it kinda passes the time.

mmm im getting hungry, ill have to eat soon, i think ill go for a drive somewhere and have a look around.. see what dvds are out lately... i havnt got any new dvds in a while...

Sent an email to my phd supervisor, he needs to sign some forms for me... time is getting away, i need to have them in before the end of this month to apply for wwdc... mmmmm, oh well, it will happen some way or another.


righto, im off... need food...

20.3.02

whew!, back in rockhampton now... I got back yesterday and found out my phone is disconected... bleh.. long story, anyway its going to take 5 days to reconnect it, so im without a phone/internet connection till then. Luckily i have some connections at uni, so i steal a lan connection every so often ,which does the job.


Got a copy or warcraft 3 beta today, damn it looks sweet!, cant wait for it to come out. Ill buy it for sure. Blizzard are alwyas good with their games, and always release a mac version at the same time as they release the PeeCee version. So i buy most Blizzard games...


I need to go food shopping, i have very little food at home which bites, and my house is a mess and dusty and yucky... mmmm, but i got lots of stuff done today which has been kinda overdue since ive been in townsville. I rang a client today about some web work and he cant see me till next tuesday so thats cool, i can get some other shit done before i move into my next job.


Im haging out to hand in my phd, i god another referee for it today, so all i have to do is get my supervisor to sign it and hand it in!, then i can apply for the wwdc scholorship thing.... *sigh*


Oh well... back to looking busy... he he :)
