I want one!!! I would have never guessed they had promo stuff like this! I know theres a few members here who probably have been following since the dust era. anyone of you own this gadget? I've looked for it online but no luckPosted Image By the way what is the last sample? I didnt quite recognize it



I have it, even own 2 copies but neither of them works. need new batteries probably but in the end it's just cheap japanese or chinese crap. I've seen them going on ebay for 50+ quid and also on gemm.com - defo NOT worth the money.
love is all.

what a crazy day. it could have been brilliant, got my post graduate diploma today after my prof gave me the top grade for my paper which counts 25% of final grade, hence I have an excellent diploma now.

on the other hand, someone crashed into the rear end of my car this morning (my only 8 months old with less than 3,000 km driven) and it will cost min 3,000 euros to get it fixed. crap.
love is all.

I'm a lawyer but have taken post graduate studies in european law/european integration also. it has taken me a while to finish it as I teach and work at university also - may diploma just HAD to be excellent, otherwise they would probably not offer me a new contract next term ;)

You don't know how close I was to tell her "It's not working out". But no I have conscious (either that or I'm a doormat). Well it was really more a case I've got other shit to deal right now like trying to push through my 1/4 life crisis and get any job to pay the bills.

Funny enough though posted an ad for a flatmate on a website made for sharehousing and low and behold this potiential new guy to replace the guy thats unfortunately moving out (because of the bad one) knows a friend of mine who used to live here. This new guy was like "Oh cool, you know "blah" that must mean you're normal and decent people" I'm like yes! (and funny enough on the side he runs a website that helps designers get work, unfortunately not enough to live off only a project here and there but thought that was convenient) The other guy thought it was cool to get him in. I don't really care so much what the "bad one" thinks since caused the other move out. If she doesn't like him, she can move out. BOOM!
Come out from the cold and into the setting sun. It's where it all began for me (not in Afrika), like it was out of control. Then after that life was sweet. So dream on into the pioneer skies of the fourteenth century and rise from the sunshine underground.

Sounds hardcore. Studying that as well as lecturing and marking other students work! (And you practice as a lawyer as well?!!)

nah, I am defo not working as a solicitor or anything like that also. that'd be too much and I won't enjoy it anyway. I like the academic career track (at least at the moment) and I do my phd currently. full-time job at uni plus teaching is very time-consuming however, so progress is slow...

@Whitenoise: Have a safe trip, man! Enjoy! Why are you going to Belize?

Went on a missions trip. It was an awesome experience, incredible to see how different their way of living is. We did a VBS session at a village an hour north of Punta Gorda. Literally there was no facility, just a small wall-less hut too muddy to do anything in. We did our lesson and games out in a little clearing with chickens and other birds just running around the place. Really eye opening to see how happy they were compared with how little they had.

Really sore from traveling and my sunburn is making me look like a tomato, but it was totally worth it.

::sigh:: Family is hard to get along with sometimes.

I've been hanging out with my brother all summer and having a great time here in D.C., but yesterday he decided to be a complete asshole and I'm not sure if I'm going to hang out with him again before I leave.

Nothing to do at work right now, and I may not get anything else in the next two weeks... Bored. Boring. Just want to get back to S.F. now. Damnit.

On the bright side, next month I get to see Digitalism, The Twelves, Deadmau5, !!!, and SMD do a DJ set. :D :D :D

Just hang on till August bro!

In other news....Portishead concert in Oct is sold out! Damnit!

Welcome back, WhiteNoise! Doing good works is mighty good. :) I love that middle pic of the smiling boy. Do you get to go on these missions regularly?

Pooter, come home. California misses you!!

I have a job 'orientation interview' for a possible job that would be my dreamjob. I don't know the details yet, but if this is what i THINK it is, it's really my DREAMDREAMDREAM job. I have this interview in two hours and i'm trying really hard not be to nervous. It's behind a desk so it will be very hard with my RSI but i'm not gonna let my shoulder grind me down and i'll find a way!

To be continued...

Seeing them a couple of years ago here in Cologne on the "Third"-tour was one of the best gigs i've ever been to - so from from me also a good luck on getting the tickets.
