so i finally broke down and upgraded my lj account to a "Plus" account, which means I can upload pics directly onto lj instead of putting them into picasa or something and writing the url into the html for the post. It also means that my journal has ads, but i think thats a relatively small price to pay if it actually gets me to post on a more ( Read more... )

it seems everyone around me is "blogging" up a storm, assuming that people actually care what they have to say about one thing or another.

This will be quick since I'm paying by the minute for internet. I made it to the apartment complex in Glen Waverley, Victoria, Australia. It took some sorting out of information since I didn't get the check-in information forwarded to my email before I left Palmy, but luckily I had the phone number for the accommodation company so they have me the ( Read more... )

talking to Nicole (a fellow Massey-ite with lj, yay!) reminded me that once again, its about time to pretend i still write in this thing ( Read more... )

I haven't really updated this thing since the first week of school here in Palmy or something, so I have been really bad. And since I am looking for things to occupy my time (instead of doing real work) I figure I should post ( Read more... )

I have officially completed two weeks of class at Massey University. Here are my general thoughts on them ( Read more... )

alrighty, time for a text based update ( Read more... )
