Things are lookin weird on the job front, still waiting to hear back as to what the go is. Dunno what is gunna happen, but ill cross that bridge when i come to it.
Start reading some stuff for my PHD, its kinda hard...
Tried bashing somthing together for my sportsdraw app, but it didnt work, needs further investigation, theres somthing im missing.. ill have to have a look somtime when i can concentrate.
Played a bit of war3 on battlenet with a friend, gee its fun.
Ive just decided to spend tomorrow on my sportsdraw app... i wanna get that problem nailed, it annoys me when i cant figure things out...

bleh... im gunna go and do somthing else..

hrmm de hrmm hrmmm..
well.. seems i might be getting some kinda redundancy with my job.. nto sure, still waiting to hear back. I got offered a position in townsville but really i couldnt see any benefit of moving there, so i said i didnt want to.. yup.. things are uncertain on all levels at the moment, but really i dont feel worried or anything. Its weird... uncertainty is cool at the moment, i know ill be right no matter what happens. i know enough people to find work to get by till i get another job.. yup yup its all good..

madly burning cds for people at the moment, damn im slack.. i hate that... im determined to get them done and sent asap.. i need to just do it.. got a few to burn but ive got my ibook fired up and it loves burning cds :) ha ha

My weird lung thing seems to be going.. ive noticed it getting better and better, which is cool.. ill test it out maybe tomorrow or on the weekend by going for a walk.. thats where it started hurting last time...

I might do some writing this weekend.. pondering so to speak... my pondering has been none existant for some time now...

hrmm, ok, my internet is going to drop out soon, it cuts off every 4 hours and its up to 3:58... so im gunna post this and be gone..!!

hrmm, well a grand total of 3 people turned up for the tute class... great stuff LOL.. they hung around for about 30 mins then left. hrmm weird, but i guess thats what you get. The stuff i have to do in the tue is straight out of the book and i have to admit that if i was a student i would probably do it at home, especially at 4-6pm tuesday afternoon. oh well...

Got on battlenet with trev and still lost every bloody game, its really pissing me off. No matter what we do we are always the ones defending and behind the eight ball (so to speak)... *sigh* when will we win... when when when?

Had a crappy headache today, and since i had 3 little sleeps i am not really tired at the moment... the lung thingy has stopped bothering me, the doctor said it would go away in like 48hours... ill keep popping the pills though just to be sure the nasty little bugger doesnt come back.

*sigh* - i guess i better go ly in bed and try to sleep... hrmmm yep...

22.7.02

*sigh* well it seems i have some weirdo lung infection. Woke up this morning and when i got out of the shower i had a shocking pain in the chest. Anyway, thinking it would go away i left it for a bit but it didnt go away. Sooooo i thought 'gee i might go to the doctor to get it checked out' - easier said then done.. I went to 3 friggen doctors places and all 3 told me they were too busy, i said i had a pain in my chest and it hurt when i breathed, but no, they were too busy... geez, its lucky i wasnt having a heart attack or somthing... anyway, i ended up going to a place at the shopping centre and they made a sopt for me. The doctor told me it was some viral thing that infects the stuff around your lungs, and when you breath your lungs rub on it and thats why it hurts.. or somthing like that... anyway i have pretty pink pills to take now... and hopefully it will go away... damn it was hurtin this morning...

Found out today that the tute class i meant to take tomorrow has so far got noone signed up to it.. ha ha, looks like i might be talking to myself tomorrow afternoon. Oh well, ill go out there and sit with my iBook for a while and see what happens. Either way i still get 2 hours pay for it...

righto, im going to watch some tv... hrmmm wonder whats on...

21.7.02

hrmmm, well another weekend been and gone...

Went and saw Bad Company at the cinema, not too bad...

Not much else is going on... I feel like John Travolta on Phenomonon (spelling?) It was on TV the other night and he said somthing like "Ive got so many ideas and thoughts running around in my head i dunno where to start", now dont quote me on that, but it was somthing like that... anyway.. i kinda realised thats how i feel.. Ive got lots of ideas for stuff to do and so forth, but things get done so slow... hrmmmm Like i hate having to go to sleep cause theres so much else i could be doing... thats kinda silly i guess cause id probably feel like crap if i didnt sleep, but you know what i mean (i hope)... My head is around the wrong way i think, i get so productive and energised at around 10 or 11pm at night... In a way i think its cause i spend most of my time at home these days cause theres no work for me... which is why i applied for the other job...

hrmmm.. good news is the job interview went well and things are looking positive.. i dont want to say anything for sure... but its kinda a sure thing ha ha moving on.. the place sounds really good, they are interested in upgrading their stuff and their coming projects look really cool, plus the cash is good... It will be a bit different to be saving money, instead of living by the month.. im looking forward to it a lot.

A mate of mine here in Rocky has just got engaged, he sent me a message the other day, i had to read it a few times to make sure i was reading it right.. ha ha.. anyway, good luck to him i say, hes a good bloke and deserves it and his girlfriend couldnt be better... its a good thing... makes me start thinking... then i get back to what i was doing :) ha ha

I think next week ill have a big clean up... clean this dirty unit and change it around... time for a change.. and even a little change will make a difference. I think ill take some holidays soon and head back home for a while. My Pop is a bit crook, hes getting old and i should head back to see him. Plus see everyone else, would be good. I havnt had a holiday for a while, and got a few oweing that i may as well use up before i leave..

righto, enough blogging.. this is the longest blog ive written in a while.. ill try to keep it up. I need to write some more poems, havnt done that in a while... hrmmm yep there i go again - thinking about everything im gunna do.. ha ha...

going...
going...
gone!.. *puff* - and so he dissapears in a cloud of smoke...
