Extra Extra, Read All About It…
First off, apologies for leaving this place so stale and out of date. I encounted problems recently with MovableType and haven’t had the time until now to fix them to allow me to post again. Mysteriously, I can’t seem to recreate the problem and everything works. *shrug*
Well, let’s see now. Wexford was very nice a few weeks ago. It was wonderful to just get away from everyting for a while, even if I had my laptop with me for college work I had to do while I was away.’,'The last week of my spring break was spent between a computer lab in college working away on my group programming project of the Red Cow Simulator and celebrating my 21st. Apart from the coding session, I had a lot of fun. Ciara brough me out to Yamamori Noodles for a lovely dinner, followed by The Woman Who Walked Into Doors in the Olympia. Neither of us were very impressed with the play, mainly because it was far too slow moving and repeditive.
I had a good night out in the Porterhouse with a few friends the night before my birthday. It was a good night out with friends from my old class in college and included a minute birthday cake with sparklers for candles and a tiny birthday card the size of a postage stamp. Thanks girls.
For my birthday, I had a family meal in Nosh, where I receiced some interesting gifts including a lovely Seiko watch from Ciara and money towards a trip to Rome from my parents.
Since my birthday, I’ve spent most of my time working on my group project in a futile attempt to get something to show for the final demonstration later today and working on a client’s network iuncluding installing a Debian Linux server and setting up a VPN to secure the wireless network.
Thankfully, now that the group project is effectively over, with very little to show, I’m now not so busy. I entend to use this 4 day weekend to kick back and relax for a few days and get myself ready to begin studying for the exams in a few weeks, so I can pass them cleaning in a single sitting…
