It's just occurred to me that without the Internet, I'd probably do a bunch of the things I keep bitching I don't have time to do....

Like read, draw, paint, learn things, finish video games.

Woo hoo!

Now I can see what my post count is when I'm posting. I'm becoming a little aware that I'm finally approaching 1k. (ooh.. big woop) It'd be nice to know when I reach it.

I can't, the cap sizes are the same here, for... well, everything.

What stuff has a different size?

;; And um.... don't you have something better to do than ponder the cap sizes of soda bottles? Or is it just a slow day today..

That has a cute storyline for the anime, but the manga is scary I like Maison Ikkokou and FLCL and Trigun for their animes more than their mangas. Although the manga-anime is pretty even.


With "scary" do you mean certain relevations about the head of the Sohma family? Cause that's taking me some getting used to....

As for the FLCL Manga, I've seen it, but it didn't look real good, so I didn't buy it.

At the moment, definitely Fruits Basket. The characters are great, and the character development is good also. The only character that doesn't really change is the heroine -- but she changes everybody around her.

I'm enjoying Cardcaptor Sakura manga too, it's cute.

Posted on 12-15-04 04:12 PM, in O Christmas Tree Link


I have been trying to take photos of things lately, as I bought myself a digital camera. I've learned now to change the exposure on my camera now too so I can take dark photos!!

This is the first good photo I've taken of something dark.... it's my Christmas Tree!! (Behold it in all it's 60cm glory...)

Anybody have some hints on photography? I'm not good at this stuff...

I put Candy Canes on it now (the candy canes are half the size of the tree, but that's cause they're HUGE candy canes, and it's a TINY tree).

Eh, I played some more with trying to get a good photo of it, and tried it with the flash just to see what I got. I didn't like the results with the flash, but here they are (and you can see the huge colorful candy canes)

Christmas Tree with Flash On.

I also tried with some more light in the room, and again with slower shutter speeds, to see if that helped.... I like this a lot better.

Christmas Tree with greater exposure.

I wish I knew more about photography, I am such a n00b at it.

I went outside. There was this big bright shiny thing in the sky, and it made my eyes hurt. (warm, sunny day today)

As for the images -- easy come, easy go, I guess.

I guess... it's somewhere in between. It *is* hand drawn, but not using traditional media -- it's hand drawn on a computer. I use a Wacom Tablet to do my work, and I sketch/paint directly into programs like Open Canvas, Painter and Alias Sketchbook.

And cheers, btw, I'm glad you like it

Posted on 12-20-04 03:55 AM, in Job Application.... Link
Aiiiieeeeieieie....

I have to write a Job Application for a government job. I'm very unsure/nervous about this, because writing, particularly formal writing, is not my strong point.

Government Job Applications are a little different to normal ones. They send out what's called a "Job and Person Specification" and you have to write a response to the Job and Person Specification. Funny, it sounds easier when I write it out like this than it is actually **DOING** the stupid response.

The response has to write to very specific criteria and bacially... has to be extremely well written bullshit about how utterly fabulous I am. I'm not good at bullshitting about how fabulous I am (hell, I'm not much of a bullshit artist in general), so this is particularly hard. (Although I wonder -- is ANYBODY good at writing BS about themselves?)

I have till the 7th of January to complete this highly polished piece of bullshit!

I'm freaking out!!

Anyways, I was wondering, is anybody out here good at writing stuff, and would anybody be willing to help proofread and stuff?

If I do this right, I'll get permanancy at my job. Permanancy is GOOD -- it means I get to stop worrying where my next meal is coming from!

Course, this is also the reason I'm freaking out so much. If I don't do it well, I WON'T get permanancy... and I'll lose this job that (despite the stupid users) I love so much!! *freakoutfreakoutfreakout*

Anybody willing to lend me a hand?

That would depend on the circumstances under which you were prosecuted.... and your own personal value system.

If it was a stupid ban to begin with, I'd see no moral problems with disobeying the ban or finding ways around it.

The Google thing has a place sometimes.

Some questions can only really be answered with links to Google.

Say somebody says that they need to do an assignment on World War II for school. I don't know about you guys, but I don't know enough about WWII to consider myself a good source for this information, so I'd likely link to a Google Search about it, and advise that while I don't know enough about the topic, the sites on the first page look interesting. (I'd probably also ask if they needed to know anything specific about WWII, or just general information)

Course, sometimes people post Google links to be obnoxious, but sometimes it really is the best answer.

Speaking of people being lazy, I like some of the posts we sometimes get that go:

"I need to do an assignment on [insert topic here] and can you guys help?"

For some reason, I always read that as "can you do my research and assignment for me?"

I tend to link to Google then, or HowStuffWorks or whatever seems most relevant.
