I'm bored enough to search my name in altavista to see what I've done since I took this alias up. I'd look for my other one, but it's so commonly used, it'd be near impossible to tell me apart from the other 50 million users of that name.
I need to find something more to do in the interweb. It's getting to be the same routine day by day.

and otherwise do nothing with my online time. Even homework is starting to look appealing now =/
I need to do something on the net to make it fun again... But what can be done I contemplate to myself. Maybe I should learn Java and apply it on my website somewhere. >.>
I suppose I could add it to the list of languages Mobius and I have under our belts. Collectively, we're doing great. <.<
But like all programmers, I'm going through a "very bored" period.
So, I have a website, time and money. What should I do with it all? Combine it into some super nuclear monster to take over he world? Or like, learn Java, make a chat room which uses the Forum database to login?
I think I'll do that. Learn Java to make a chat program which will use my forum database to login. I'll also redo the edits to my forums I told everyone about a fair while ago, and release the source for that I think. Why? Because I'm just really bored now-a-days.
Took a girl to a good pizza place the other night. We had a very good time, just the two of us. Pity the milkshakes sucked... Swear it was spit, water and cold milk all stirred together to form some kind of chocolate slush. Ohh well. Can't have a perfect evening.
School is kicking my behind. I'm just no longer into it anymore. Physics and Methods are proving to be much harder than they really should be. I ended up 7 weeks behind in homework at one stage. I had to really work to catch up. And now I'm a week behind again. Go figure <.<
I bet it's all just a phase. But year 12 seems to be a bad time to go through a "I don't give a toss anymore" phase. Nyeh, suppose it can't be helped though. I know I have to work hard. I want to. I just can't motivate myself. I've always crused through school, and never really found any of my classed hard. Well, until maths last year. I was a C+ average in physics... until we started the motion laws. Those I never understood and will never understand. I hates them I do!
Physics is becomming more fun though, and I find myself trying to do the work envolved. We're studying electricity at the moment. It's very fun. My teacher told me to hold two wires, so I could make a spark between them. I was holding the rubber parts as I am supposed too. Turns out that kind of rubber doesn't do very well against 1000 volts. I tell you, I woke up from that <.<
Only problem was it was my 3rd and 4th periods and I had a free for 5th and 6th. So I went home back to my doing nothing <.<
Maths is becomming harder and easier. We started differenciation. That was easy. We moved onto application of differenciation. That was hard. Now we're doing anti-differenciation. That was easy. Now we're doing application of anti-differenciation. This is hard. Really a pain in the ass. I really -hate- working with "e" and all those kinds of numbers. Stupid constants!
Who really wants to do anti-differenciation of funtions of functions?
4x^(6x^2+ex+8)
.>
Stupid programming requirements. Someone tell me. Where am I going to use differenciation and anti-differenciation in programming?
The physics motion laws I can understand. If I ever create a game, I'll need to understand the concepts of recreating gravity in a computer world. But I fail to see how differenciation and the unit circle and functions of functions of functions are going to be used =/
What else can I rant about I wonder?
I was tossing and turning the idea of selling scoreboards to people for their games.
For instance, a person will come to me with their game and tell me what kind of scoreboard they want. What it will do and so on. I'll PHP it up and put it on tibbius.com. Whip up a DM proc which will allow the user to control the aspects of it and they pay me to keep it hosted.
But I don't think many people will go for this idea. So I suppose I'll just have to keep scoreboards for good friends.
I finally fixed up my subdomain on tibbius.com.
Althought my faveourite colour is green, I figured I'd used it enough here, so I made a blue profile. You can view it here.
The last.fm thing will be outdated to my faveourite music for the moment. I haven't quite caught up yet. Those songs I was really fond of during a down period I wont get into.
My desktop needs cleaning <.<
My junk folder is full of crap I can't identify >.>
I'm going out this friday to an expensive chinese restraunt with the same girl I took out last friday. I have to take that friday off to coincide with my mothers plans. So I figured I'd take advantage of this situation and spend some time with her. She's a great person to be out with. Very fun and -so smart-
If she would become a programmer, she'd take me out in a race within a full year of study I bet. She just picks up things in an instant.
Programming to me is slowly losing it's touch. I have a good four or so years under my belt of several different languages and attempts. I'm good enough for me to call myself a programmer. But I still have -nothing- to show for it. A small website anyone rarely visits and two crappy search programs that no one ever uses <.<
Kind of depressing really >.>
My plans for 2008 are slowly bending in my mind. For the past two years I've had a solid plan and it's been the way. But current circumstances are slowly calling me to change the ideas. I was planning on moving to Ballarat after this year. But I'm not sure if I really want to go there now. I'm considering moving to Geelong instead. I don't plan on really going to university straight after secondary college. I'm just really sick of education. I need a break from obligation to learn. I really -really- do. 12 years is just too long, you know?
Because of my sickness, I've lost about 10kg and my appetite. Which is disconcerting. I've eaten a grand total of a packet of dry crushed 2min noodles today. Not exactaly a grand fiest. I even paid for my friends meals tonight and only drank a single hot chocolate. I nilly blacked out and collased due to a high feavor a week ago. But I managed to make it outside, sitting in the cold rain really does do wonders for a feavor. I managed to rid myself of it in a reasonable time. I drank Milo to keep up some form of strength. I've now lost the taste for Milo. Like I did for Lemonaid when I fell sick for 2 solid weeks, a good 5 years ago. Back to tea for me.
Everything for me is moving fast, but time is going slow. It's like everyone is running when I'm walking, but I'm still keeping up. It's quite a weird feeling to describe. Anyways, it's anoying the crap out of me.
Mobius and my time zone seems to have changed and we don't see eachother often =(
This is kind of depressing. I miss talking about the universe and programming with my bestest friend. At any rate, I have no intenion of chaning the plan with regards to meeting Mobby. He'll be moving to Australia when he finishes college, and I'll be waiting for him. With or without a university education in programming on either side.
I completely forgot the administrative password for my Linux box. So I have to reformat it. Which is time consuming and I'm not really deep into doing it at the moment. I'll get around to it when I lose interest in whatever I'm doing now.
For some reason I've fallen ill to the Mobile Phone craze. (Cell Phone for all you americans).
In which I have this eurge to buy a good one. Like a flip phone or something. But I'm holding off.
I didn't do my Tax Return for 2005. And the government wants to change me 600 dollars for it. Want to know the funny thing. The tax was 36 dollars. They want to change me half a grand because I didn't try and collect $36 dollars off them. What the hell is that about!?
This year however, I'm more than glad to clame it. Because my tax return is a good $364 dollars.
I've also not been spending much money lately. My wallet has a good $40.00 unused dollars in it and my bank account has a good $70. There was more, but as I said, I took a girl out friday and paid for my friends meals tonight. Not to mention the $1200.00 I have in savings for when I move out. Speaking of that, I'm going to try and get it to at least $5000.00 before the end of the year.
I also feel obligated to get my Learning Drivers Lic. I'm 17 going 18 and I haven't bothered. But I'll need to drive when I move out I suppose. So that's next weeks task I suppose. I also need ID to get into the pub when I'm 18. Because, I can legally drink at 18, take that america! =P
Not that it matters, I don't really drink anything other than Apple Cider. I have a low tollerance for any form of alcohol now. I started drinking at six. So naturally now, when drinking is a social part of life. I can no longer do it.
But boy howdy, can I drink me some cider. I must have gone through about 12 bottles on my own in a single night. That's a good pint and three quaters per bottle. And being the strength it is, you still get drunk and don't have a hang over =P
What else can I add to this exceptionally long and rather meaningless blog post of current events? >.>
I've become very argumentitive in my recent bored times. Picking fights with lots of people on the internet I don't really care about. Recent events are proof of this. But I appear to be dying off again. It doesn't seem very useful to continue to do so. So I'll go back to ignoring many of the people I want to disect for science, unless of coarse, they give me reason to keep going.
Ummmm. Nothing really much else to say. School is only 13 or so weeks from being finished forever. And I can't wait. When it does, me and said girl are going to relax a bit and see how a relationship fairs I bet. We've grown really close in the past seven months. And all our friends really thing we should go for it. We seem like such a logical couple. A young intelligent girl, and a semi-reclusive romantic programmer. What's to lose? In my circle of friends, programming isn't shunned =P
Because it consists of a writer, photographer, programmer and a reader. Which is awesome.
The four of us get along so well =P
My computer class at school is such a WASTE OF TIME. I'm doing all the tasks with my hands on my head. They expected me to use front page to create a website. We had 100 minutes to make one. I quite happily HTML'd and CSS'd it up. Beta tested it and otherwise had it completely functional without any of that WYSIWYG crap. Long before most of the others had finished their front page... Now we're doing excel! How exciting!
I can already do this with my eyes closed now... Ohh how I pitty myself when we get to MS ACCESS. I swear, the tech administrators are using MySQL to do the school database for students now. I'll ask if I can tap into that and use it with visual basic. I really -hate- MS ACCESS. It takes ALL the fun out of programming.
I want to see the movie "Tristan and Isolde". I'm not really a big fan of love stories, but this movie just screams "I'm well done!" So next time I get the chance, I'm going to take it from the top shelf and watch it. I had the same feeling about "Cry Wolf" and it turned out to be great. So you never know, I might score it lucky twice. Lets find out.
That about sums up the recent events in my life. So I'll now go back to posing random and meaningless crap every week. =P
Stay tuned.
