Nokia N800

August 17th, 2007

I have been getting ready for studying and one thing that I have been thinking about is my laptop. Since last time I have been sitting on a lecture room, my laptop has grown few extra inches bigger. I don’t think that I would use my laptop much during lectres, and its battery doesn’t even last as long as did my Powerbook’s. But what to do I need to check something from the Internet, waiting for an important email or just getting through boring lectures? Well that’s why I boughted Nokia N800 Internet Tablet.
I have been playing with this for a while and this is just better than I expected.

Freedom?

August 15th, 2007

I made today something that I have been thinking about for a some time for now. I resigned my job.
For a while I have been thinking that my current job doesn’t give much for me. No new challenges, no education, it is just same day after day. And when my duties has been slowly changed from systems administration to almost full-time PHP coding, I just decided that it is better for me and my future if I resign and take year off to study.
I guess my decision means that I really need to study in this academic year…

Photos for sale

August 15th, 2007

Few weeks ago I wrote that my photos has been accepted to the photo agency, Sodapix. Contract papers has been signed and delivered, I have uploaded first set of my photos to service.
Since then I have been waiting, when my photos will appear to sales portal. Finally, yesterday I noticed them there. Now I just can wait for someone to actually buy those. Someone has already watched my photos (top photo has seven clicks registered) but hasn’t bought yet any photo.

Planning studies

August 13th, 2007

University studies are starting soon, in the begin of September. I have been already looking for interesting and mandatory courses. And like every other year, I still cannot understand, why almost all courses seems to be lectured between 10:00 and 14:00.
This year I have decided to put more my effort to studies, trying to get as much of my bachelor’s degree ready as possible. I have been too lazy for couple past years and now I have to do a little catchup.
This year I try also get my secondary subject’s quite done, I tried to start reading biotechnology last year, but I ran out of time then and was never able to finish course. Maybe this year is a different…
It seems that this autumn is not going to quite easy. Although I am planning to reduce my working to minimal, I still have probably too many courses to involve and photographing.
And of course, keeping this blog up-to-date would also need some of my time.

Back to games

August 13th, 2007

It took about three weeks but finally I got my Xbox 360 back on last Friday.
I haven’t thought about playing games or missed my xbox, which actually surprised me. I actually managed to have something else to do. But when I powered it up on Sunday evening, it all came back to my mind. I was little tired so I just wanted brainless driving, so I picked Need for Speed: Carbon.
So, after a long wait now I am able to relax again by playing. Until it breaks again (hope not).
