Month: September 2005

The new semester has just started so I’ve been spending money on secondhand books for modules, doing reading and note-making for my project and going to lectures. I’ve found that a good project reading time is the hour before my Monday and Tuesday lectures, as my housemates have a lecture an hour before mine start, so I walk to campus with them and loiter somewhere doing my reading. Or as I like to call it, “project reading for great yay”.

Didn’t manage to do as much work over the holiday as I would have liked… various family things got in the way mostly as well as the “lounging recovering from family things” part of the last few months.

Other than academic activities, I’ve managed to spend mildly scary amounts of money on perfume oils from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. On the plus side though, any oils that don’t smell good on my skin or in an oil burner can be easily ebayed.

And when did “ebay” turn into a verb? The same time as “google” and “blog”?

Oh! And I’ve been trying to fiddle with wordpress to get my current playlist to show up in the sidebar, but all the current wordpress plugins I’ve looked at completely fail to work. The one that’s stuck on there at the moment is being eyed dubiously as to it’s workingness. I may just stick in some kind of javascript doodah working from my Last.fm rss file.
