*flashes*

today was actually pretty good, SHE begaved herself and it went pretty well :)
All in all, a good birthday was had.
And what did I do on this birthday? Why, what everyone does....learn how to use Flash. of course.
I made this :)
Tell me what you think, cuz flash is really easy to use and I really like working with it.
I'll update more tomorrow, time is running out:P

Whoa.....

I....have to say.....I'm....shocked....
See, for those of you that are STILL unaware of it, today is my Birthday :)
I am not 17 years old :D
Kinda scary, getting older and all, but this year has been so different already and this birthday was no exception.
Jfkfhhfj, ToXiN, Grendies, Nozzy, Kresin, Kanis and even RenX got together and made me a kick ass flash thing. Ok, so jfk did most of the work and ToX supplied the pr0n while the rest just left a simple message in it, but still, it was great and really made me feel great :D
Guys, you're all great, and I'm happy to have you all as my friends :)
Same to the rest of you that wished me Happy Birthday, like Sciboy and all the others I can't remember, you're all great!
Seriously, due to the fact that HER birthday is today as well (I shit you not, she really does share the same Birthday as me) I was actually really expecting to have a shit Birthday, like last year and the year before that, but you guys, all of you...you've made it the best Birthday I've ever had...really :)
I really can't put it into words, I wasn't expecting anything quite like that at all, and it means a lot to me....

Fuckery

Today was "a bollocks" as Andy described it.(Andy is the guy in charge of me at "work" Basically, I was going on a proper course thing for the work experience, but 2 extra people showed up so they didn't have space for "the student" which basically meant I spent the morning in the canteen and Andy just told me to go home at about 2 since it was pointless me being there. Although, he's pretty pissed about it, and i can sorta see why since a lot of the things he had planned for me during my week there went to hell and that fucked him over pretty bad , So in short, he's pissed at a few managers and couldn't stop apologizing to me. I didn't mind, I've enjoyed the rest of the week here so far and apparently tomorrow I'm with infrastructure (one of the departments in the place) and they supposedly do interesting stuff. Or so they all say.
Oh and to those of you who don't know, there's a special occasion on Sunday, if you don't know what it is, post a comment. Those of you who DO know, don't give it away, I wanna see how many don't actually know :P

b0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Today was actually pretty boring, even at "work". See, someone died or didn't come in or something to day, so I basically say in the canteen the whole morning as they had nothing to do for me.
Although, tomorrow, they are taking me on an official proper course thing, Microsoft certified and all, so that'll mean I actually have to DO stuff ¬_¬
Ah well, anyhoo, me go sleepies

You know, I always thought that buildings full of insane people would be white...

And I haven't once seen a white coat walking about either....
Today was more interesting than yesterday, the more people I meet at the place, the more I seem "normal", it's scary :S
So what did I do? Well, for the morning, I pissed about with this cool map thingy they're building, its really detailed and you can zoom in pretty close.
I even found my house (Ignore the extra green, despite what Nozzy may believe, everything in Ireland isn't green, that's just cuz it's a low quality *.jpeg):

Can anyone guess which house it is?

For the afternoon after my  2 hour lunch I sat around...and talked to some people. They were all cool, first one was Jill, a web design student person, fairly normal, and she taught me a few cool things to do in Photoshop as well as a bit of Flash that will come in handy :D
Next up was.....er...some guy, I can't remember his name, but he programmed for an Oracle Database of some sort. Well, that's what he's meant to do, he actually sits there snooping around ebay most of the time.. After him came this woman, who's name I also can't remember, I think it was carol tho, but anyway, she was crazy. See, most of the people on this floor had 2 monitors since they did a lot of design work in Photoshop and stuff, but she didn't. So what does she do to make up for it? She has a second mouse. Yes, she has 2 Mice plugged in, but they both control the same pointer, which is bloddy confusing. But most of her day consists of playing "Mouse wars" with someone else, where basically there's 2 icons and you just gotta click your one, but the other person has to click the other icon using the second mouse, 2 Icons + 2 Mice + only one cursor = crazy office antics.
I gotta get a Job here.

Work experience is...wait...work?

Yeah...."work" experience....
I did less at "work" than I do at home...
Seriously, I did NOTHING until about er..14:00 and then all I had to do was walk around with some cool guy (who told me about a cool way to hide porn) while he replaced some toner and ink cartridges....
And according to him, that was actually a large amount of work for a monday, for any day in fact...
I'm gonna like it in this place.
Although, it does kinda bother me since this one place handles all of the ICT stuff for my City's council, and then some, yet nobody actually DOES anything, I was taken on a tour of the place, through all the departments, and not once did I actually see anyone do much.
What's good tho is they're all like me, all big geek type people, even the old ones.
Heck, one of the older guys was the one showing me around, and he showed me the servers they have, he said they have 93 servers, all doing different things. Then he said they actually had 94 servers, but the extra one didn't exist on paper, it just "backed up" Mp3's....
Heck, they ALL take 2 hour lunches just because they can, since they use "Flextime" which basically says make sure you're there between 10:00 - 12:00  and between 14:00 - 16:00 and you can do whatever the hell you want at any other time. Damn this place is fun.
I wonder if I can get a proper Job out of it at the end since it seems like this place was made for me.....

Worst case Scenario no. 73: Banning of bog roll

Today was a mixture of emotions I guess, school was boring and not a lot happened, especially since it's our last day for a week and all.
Oh and Doc Bob is being extra nice to us as aparantly this years field trip went a lot better than any other previous year, he even let us drink Coffee in class, which is not like him at all.
Ok, so school was uneventful, how nice.
Then some stuff happened when I got home, it was annoying and shit and boring and blah, but then Me and Michelle played Conquest again, and that was cool, as you can see from our game stats I am getting better, a LOT better, in fact, she only beat me on one tiny field, yet that was still enough for her overall score to be bigger than mine¬_¬
Oh well, it was great fun, the AI is bloody good, smart and aggressive and doesn't hang about, if it sees a system, it goes for it right away.
Good shit.
Now I'm off to bed cuz I am seriously nakkered

P.S. As a side note, while typing this I accidently mis-spelled "Previous" as "Pervious". Shows how I think....
