Oh blog, how lonesome you must have felt. >_>

Anyway, life got crazy and as seems to be the norm, my blog was one of the first things to get neglected. Amazing, everything is finally starting to settle again. Yes, I did just imply that the christmas period was “settled” compared to whats been happening.

Another year has almost past, another year of Uni completed, not far to go now.

Still working for evos webdesign, making them websites. We move into an office from Monday which should be interesting, I don’t think it’ll really bother me whether I work at home or in the office, in the office I’ll basically be admin-ing the LAN/file-storage system and developing so it’ll be fun.

Aside from the 25 hours I do for evos, I’ve also got a related side-job from one my bosses’ parents. Developing an innovative new website thing which a bit of paper with my signature on says I’m not allowed to talk much about. Either way, it’ll bump me to 45 hours a week at my same payrate so that makes me happy.

It’ll probably be in January now but I’m finally getting a decent sound system fitted to my car, I already have the head unit (with a remote and ipod dock connector cable for my nano and cd player) and I’m looking at getting 2 x 10″ subwoofers for the boot to go with the 4 component speakers, and 2 x 6″x9″ speakers in the back. It’ll be totally rocking again, this time around a few steps up from what I’d put in my Escort.

Also, I tried to upgrade my Powerbook from 512MB to 2GB DDR2 RAM this week, deciding to try my luck with some from Dick Smith Electronics. Well, I tried two lots, both worked fine to start with and passed various RAM tests and Apple Hardware tests about 7 times but still froze after a few hours running. I don’t know if it was getting too hot and wasn’t very heat tolerant or just Mac OS X showing exactly how touchy it is about RAM but alas, the RAM has been returned and I’ll have to save up a bit more for some big name RAM like Crucial or Kingston.

Alright, I think thats a long enough catch-up for now. I’ll have more time after christmas once ‘So-nique.com‘ finally gets rolled out. It’s only been 2 and a bit years since Tom and I were asked to create it. I’ll have it up for christmas which will be great for them!
