So, I’ve taken up cycling, just to get more fit, and also the buses got annoying as well. I’ve got this bike from my very good neighbours, they said they just needed more space in the garage, so I’ve accepted the kind gift ;P
I’ve been cycling all around my local area, and a bit out further too, I reckon I racked up around 100miles in around a month or so. Cycled to college for the first time on Friday, taking over all the traffic that I used to sit in while going there with a bus.
Since I’ve got comfy with the mountain bike, I noticed the drawbacks and disadvantages with it. So I’ve been looking for some road bikes as well, I’ll probably going to get a used one in August.
Hopefully I’ll keep on my cycling legacy. ;-D

Hi, decided to write a post again (lol), summer has arrived finally and I’m almost finished my studies at college. Can’t wait, only a month left. Yay.
Going to have a month of summer holidays, going abroad for a few weeks in July. Then starting the apprenticeship in August AND then starting open university in October. Woohoo…. Going to be busy few years for me there..But I’m pretty certain I’ll enjoy the experience.
And now, I just wanted to post/share a few of my favourite pictures or comics from the lastmonth or two. Some people don’t find them at all, some love them ;P
FFFUUUuuu Comics

Nothing special about these pictures, just something I can look back at in a few years time, hihi.

So a good month back, or so, I decided to apply for some apprenticeships, just to see if I would be invited for interviews. Applied to six of them, three rejected me and got one invitation. Removed my other two applications. So oakam invited me for an interview a week back. The interview was pretty relaxed, nothing special, turned out to be a pleasant chat at the end, I was satisfied. Few days ago they phoned me up and asked me if I’m still interested for the position.
So they accepted me, and i’ll have to go visit them once more, and then I could start it in August. Pretty decent. My official title will be “Apprentice Advisor” and I’ll be working in one of their retail stores, also I’ll gain quite a few good certificates along the way as well. As I can re-call, they said I would most likely get a full-time job with them at the end.
Oakam is a pretty new financial company, they have approx 15 shops, and plan to OPEN up a staggering 100 shops within two years or so. I love the sound of that, the company is going to be massive soon, and I could be a part of it. Sounds pretty good, that’s as much as I know myself right know, I’ll update the blog more, as I find out what’s going on.
Oh, I’m still going college, these are the last two vital months, I finish and gain my diploma in July, can’t wait to finish college. :>
So that’s all from me at this point, I’ll see you later.

So it’s soon 1am and I was reading BBC news when this article caught my eye. So apparently drinking tea is better than water, and they recommend you to drink 3 to 4 cups a day. Oh my..that’s a lot of tea to drink. Well at least I’ve had one cup of tea today. ;-P

Hey, just dropping by and posting a few links that I found interesting through out this week.
The brains of shy or introverted individuals might actually process the world differently than their more extroverted counterparts, a new study suggests.
So, does that means i am processing the world differently, than other people?
————————————————————————————————————————
London Underground is in talks with the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (Cern) about the possibility of using the 23km tunnel of the Circle Line to house a new type of particle accelerator similar to the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva.
Heh, the underground ride is bumpy and hot already as it is, without any colliding particles besides you. But nonetheless, i am looking forward to seeing the outcome of this project.
————————————————————————————————————————
These are pictures from Kyrgyzstan, there was a rebellion against the government, it got pretty bloody, both sides have used their weapons.
————————————————————————————————————————
And the last, but not the least, this is a great late night read about a fighter jet pilots experience flying a powerful aircraft.

So as you can see from the previous post, I’ve got new dvd-rw drive and Iv’e installed new slack, since then i havent had a single restart,a nd the uptime was nearing 30days. Of course this might not seem even slightly important to some people, but certain unix guys like to boast about their uptime, so do I, lol. This is not even that big of an uptime, but what happened was, when there was 29days, 22hours, and only a few hours left, our power has gone out. Pretty lame:(

So apart from getting a brand new hosting, I also bought a new pair of earphones and a DVD-rw writer \o/
Ive got Samsung SH-S223B / 22x DVDRW Internal SATA Drive
and
Sennheiser CX300 In-Ear Headphones
As I’ve received the deliveries yesterday I thought I’d post about them a bit. So far I’m pretty satisfied with the DVD-RW writer purchase, already burned some CD’s, re-installed my OS to Slackware 13.0 and I can say I’m more than happy with it, exceeded my expectations (as this is my first and only SATA DVD-rw writer).
As for the earphones, I’ve owned quite a few sennheiser headsets, and i was more than happy to buy and use their products again, so when an opportunity popped up, I bought a nice pair of these earphones, the reviews are great, lets hope this product exceeds my expectations too.
