Hello, People of The World

Well, a lot of relevations, love stories and tension has happened - enough about Albert Square. OK - here we go. First on the agenda is my good friend Khlo has released version 0.1 (alpha) of his new software, Klat. I admire the amount of time and work he's put into this and this release is just a pinch of what's to come! You can take a look at the software here: http://klat.sf.net.

Over the past 1-2 weeks I have been thinking of an open-source project of my own, but, reviewing my skills I don't believe I'm ready for a full scale project - yeah, a few websites here and there are ok but I don't have the skill or patience to achieve something on that scale. But, just to humour you here's the list I thought of: 1)discussion board, 2)e-booker, 3)wishlist-er.

I've been listening on my 'walkie-talkie' (Binatone 2-way radio) since I was bothered to change the batteries and there are a right lot of funny people out there. 2 people pretending to be on an SAS course; (when I could hear cars and townies shouting 'fag!'), 1 person pretending to be 2 people having a conversation with each other - seriously, this guy (and gal ;)) needs help.

In the world of me - a very exciting world thankyou - it hasn't been that interesting. I was gutted to realise I baught £20 worth of USB stuff to find I planned the cable layout wrong which meant I could not use my net connection on my lappy and pc and I've learnt that aparently 'strawberry' means PINK in the DIY world.

Tomorrow is my first 10th year end-of-unit Spanish test - looks good and going to probably be easy. Also is my first English oral - I dispise any solo oral and the person who made it compulsory should be shot, thrice, chopped up, sold in sushi shops and then made into newspapers!

Daniel, you're just a tight-arse, single minded little shit. Don't mess with me.

Changes

Ok. So, here i am again apologising for not posting for such a long time. Well, i do have good reason (the reason is good on my eyes). Ok, so what are we going to talk about today. Well you'll have to read on to find out...

Ok, so I have started year 10 and so far it's been great. Apart from going as red as a tomato in Spanish, I have enjoyed it. Loads of new challenges and loads of new people. Though, I do have complaints about the groups I have been put in, or rather the groups other people have been put in. In my art group we've got some right little shites - although i must admit that the fun of throwing paint bombs over the wall is rubbing off on me ;). But, seriously, the shites are trouble and should really be in a prision or a padded room or a concentration camp.

Also, today I downloaded and installed MSN Messenger 7. Personally, I think that Yahoo! Messenger still owns all in the uses department and the fact it has a shineh new look. You can download the leaked BETA version here: http://mess.be/pafiledb/pafiledb.php?action=download&id=562 - but because of the demand for it you may experience dial-up download speeds (if you're using NTL you may be lucky enough to get in within 3 seconds).

OK, so I'm typing this on my laptop which I'm quite proud of. It gives me a new environment to work in and even more space and flexibility to create my beautiful websites ;O).

I've been monitoring (and interupting) my friend's source forge project, Klat, since it started now and it looks really good. I've had a little go myself at using it and I wish him the best. I will hopefully become a mirror for the project with anyluck and if I can remember my webspace passwords.

I have been downloading the new Stargate Atlantis series episode by episode lately and am eargerly awaiting the next episode (ep. 11) which will hopefully be out this weekend. Anyway, that's it for today and I will hopefully be updating every day from now on - it depends on my homework load and my botheredness meter.
