So ive been going to a thesis writing workshop the last few days, i had gotten emails about it for a few weeks and was meaning to sign up for it but i just plain old forgot... anyhow, one of the other students in the postgrad room at uni was heading off around 10am on monday and i asked where she was going and she said the thesis thing so i packed my shit up and tagged along.

But it was cool, i got there and said my name wasnt on the list cause i forgot and everything was cool. Well the first thing i notice when i walk into the room was that i seemed like a baby in there, the rest were older people... i looked around and decided to just sit near Melanie - one of the other students in the post grad room.
The good news is that they gave out a free book! yay!... and then everything went downhill... my attention span lasted about 10 minutes.... but the book was worth it. About half way through (after athe free lunch) we moved into the other lecture room with comfy chairs.. so thatw as a bit better....

So thats what ive been doing, plus marking whenever i get a chance. I have like 50 billion gazillion things i need to get done this week.... ha ha, but shit happens if they happen to spill over into next week. Ive almost got all the assignments marked.. Gotta do up a time sheet somtime tomorrow and claim for all this work! Ive got my eye on a sexy iPod.. hrmmm 20gig of apple mp3 player goodness *rubs hands together*, plus it would be cool for the trip i have to take around november to go to newcastle for my sisters 21st birthday. hrmm somthing to consider.

So things are going great... ive got lots of work keeping me busy and meeting lots of people. My phd is going ok, i figure its not going to all happen straight away, ive got 8 years of part time study. I started looking around and sent some emails to my supervisor and he seemed happy so its all good.

Still havnt heard about the possible job at the uni... ill wait and see with that one. In the mean time ive got lots to keep me busy.

So thats it... *sigh* another wholesome blog entry...


Ive got silverchair pumping out the tunes in winamp at the moment... damn it is good!

Another late blog entry from the wonderful world of Brett...

Ive been playing around with MySql lately, managed to get it running and setup on my linux box, also got phpMyAdmin working, makes it so muche asier to do stuff :), all i have to do now is start playing with php a bit more.

I got aksed to submit my resume for a sys admin type job at the uni on friday. It sounds pretty cool, so i emailed my resume off. If i get it ill have to reorganise my marking and stuff. I might have to give some of it away to fit it all in :)

Im still writing exams for uni as well, got the draft looked at and it is cool, just have to make some modifications and see the lecturer next week. Im also still marking, but i dont have many this time, which is good :)

Got a call from my ex, weird things going on there again. She asked if i tutor her for the computer graphics exam coming up soon. I had a good think about it but then gave it a miss, its not worth the trouble it will cause considering what is going on. For some reason her new boyfriend seems to think i gave him a lift one day and told him all this crap about her, which is a total crock of shit, i wouldnt know the dude if i walked past him, ive seen him twice and thats it. He also denied coming round to see me... weird, considering i had someone staying here at the time that saw him as well. sheesh... lol it just gets better and better by the month :) damn i should write a book.

There seems to be noone on ICQ lately, i dunno why. It goes in spits and spats really. At the moment the icq conversation is very slow.... *sigh* If anyone reads this and uses icq - send me a message sometime for a chat - 55176979 - thats my icq number... dont be shy :P

Ive been listening to Avril Lavigne lately, dunno why. Its catchy music. Also be stocking up silverchair and a few other random songs that take my fancy.

hrmmm, i dunno what ill do tomorrow, maybe go check ou a movie and go for a drive, who knows.... hrmmmm

well thats about it. Im sitting here looking for somthing to do... i guess i could always go to sleep... *sigh*
