Sorry about the lack of updates - revision and other things have gotten the better of me (yes, I know that isn't standard English)

I did some music revision today, and have now realised that the exam boards are killing the subject. They either pick some of the best music ever written, and ask completely inappropriate questions about it, or just pick really bad music to give you 1.5 hours of torture in the form of a music exam.

If anyone's looking for Amiga components, look no further than eBay. I'm auctioning three components there at the moment, and more will be trickling out as I get round to adding them.

And one more thing:
USE THE FORA!!! The nav link is there, and there is a new easy-to-remember URL (mvps.org/the_nerd/fora) so there's no excuse!!

Yes, my site now has a set of fora (pl or forum)
Click here to go there (nav link coming soon)

2006: The fora have now been taken down; the link has been removed. Sorry, spammers.

As an entity, it's fine. But as a school subject, it's the worst thing since Dale Winton. I've been attempting to revise it today, but it's really annoying me that amount of time I can spend on it without seeming to learn anything at all. Especially anything that will be of any use in later life.

/me sighs, but doesn't carry on revising.

:rolleyes:

Just to prove I'm not dead or anything, I thought I'd add a new entry today.
I found this really cool Strong Bad fansite at www.the-coolest-stuff-ever.com - for those of you who don't know who Strong Bad is, go to www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail.html
I'm submitting my Easter Egg as soon as their writeup of email 72 goes up.
I submitted an error report about the Office 2003 beta (Publisher 2003, to be precise) yesterday, and got a reply today asking for the file that caused it on CD (cos I don't have enough connection to send it via the net). So that's going off in the post tomorrow. Which is nice. Did some English Lit today. more than I did yesterday (which was more than I was expecting to do yesterday).
School again tomorrow.
:S

I think I enjoyed it. The music was loud, the food cold, and the drinks weren't too expensive. Pick out whichever you are think are positive/negative/neutral.
There was a fire alarm at 10:44, so we rang for our lift early (figuring that we wouldn't be able to get back in). As it turned out, we went straight back in, but never mind...

:rolleyes:

I must now go and do some work on the yearbook. Or something. And then do some revision. Yes, revision sounds horrible enough to do. I hate GCSEs

:|

Well, I have a May Ball tomorrow. It may only be the first of May, but they had to bring it forward because of exams. I am wearing clothes, and travelling by transport. I shall be eating food and avoiding all drugs, alcoholic beverages, and anything else that should be there. All I've got to do now is organise lots of photos to go in the yearbook, and make sure that all the award presentations get photographed. And sort out budgeting, photos, and final content for the yearbook. AHH!!! STRESS!!! And there's the small matter of GCSES IN A MATTER OF WEEKS!!!

/me goes into incomprehensible rants, interrupted by the occasional maniacal scream

I actually did quite a bit of work today - rather rare!
Started back at school today for two weeks :S. I have a German oral exam in two weeks and I don't even know when it's going to be.
AHHH!!! GCSEs in 4 WEEKS!!
(This is scary)
The eyarbook is starting to near completion - all we need now is about 350 photos, some chunks of text and a couple of pages from various people whoa re working on them. It seems a lot, but it isn't that much, seeing as the photos are mainly coming from two sources.

For those who don't know, DeviantArt is a location for all digital artists to put their stuff.
So now I've got a place and some of my stuff is up there. Go to http://the-nerd.deviantart.com/ to see me. I won't be posting any of the stuff here (because it would waste internet space cos it's already up elsewhere) but I thought some of you might like to see my "creative" output. :)

Sorry about yesterday's lack of updates - I was busy not revising. I found out that I had left my bag in the boot of my aunt's car, and so I couldn't do the chemistry specimen paper that I was planning on doing.

:rolleyes:

Brother and parent are currently out at a car boot sale. Why aren't those obsolete by now? You go out, get cold, have no fun, and have less people viewing and make less money than you would if you sold your goods on Ebay. Plus, if there are two interested parties there is no bidding, and it's far less fun. And less warm.

/me sighs
