I decided to splurge a bit today and buy myself a gift to celebrate getting a job, so I got on the iPhone bandwagon. I'm also getting my sleeve worked on for the first time in over 6 months on Monday. I actually had an appointment with my artist on Friday but I found out one day he just said he quit and walked out...

WOOT I HAVE A JOB.

I got an employment contract in the mail today and I am stoked. My pay is about $10000 more than I was expecting, though my expectations were a bit low. This means though that with the pay I will get as a TA from the university added to my salary I will be earning over twice as much as I...

Well I think my job interview went quite well, my interviews were very interesting and more interested in what kind of person I was than my academic achievements. I suppose that's the way it has to be in an environment that has hundreds of scientists working closely together, they need to make sure there wont be any major clashes. I'm still not completely sure but...

Creativity, a gift of my childhood that I can never seem to din any more.

Warning this is a drunken rant.

Growing up I would often wonder why my mum had a problem with my father being an alcoholic. I mean my grandfather had been an alcoholic my great grandfather and so on. The one thing that all these men seem to have in common besides the fact they all look exactly the same is that they were always so...

Spent the evening with the love of my life who is sadly my best and only friend. Even though the main purpose of the evening was for me to better get to know her new boyfriend I had a good time for the first time in ages since he is a great bloke and most importantly makes her extremely happy which in the end is...

After having to share a house with a couple of overgrown children who spend all their time fighting and getting used everytime I'm asked for help for the last 5 months, I'm almost glad noones ever wanted to start a relationship with me. The stress of being forced into the middle of a sick game has driven me insane and I wish I didn't have...

Well I heard back from my University about the job I applied for today. They want everyone to attend a training session and will then let people know if they got the job. I'm glad I am still being considered but it's a bit annoying as I booked my flight for Australia for two days after the training session just in case I did get...
