Stuff...

Brand New Shiny Computer is at the shop, being fixed. On Saturday I should get him back, and then I can seriously start replacing all the software I lost in the Great Computer Crash. Computer type friends - expect a call from me in the next week or so :)

Other significant thing which happened today: Got a haircut. Yay! After hunting around all of Canberra for a decent and not ridiculously expensive hairdresser, I ended up going back to the one on campus. Makes me all nostalgic for university :)

Which got me thinking - I really would like to go back to uni. While, fingers crossed, I will be starting my Masters next year (if I ever get around to submitting my paperwork), I'd really like to be able to go back full time and study something completely, just for interest's sake. I'd love to do an Arts degree, for instance. Maybe one of these days...

The other important thing which happened today was that I bought an adorable Super-deformed Darth Vader. On special, even. Now I just have to convince myself that I don't want to go back and get the TIE Fighter Pilot and Stormtrooper too...

Oh, and thanks for all the input and feedback on my topic for the public speaking competition. I've registered, and now just have to write and learn the damn thing. Before Monday. Hmmm - why do I do this to myself?

Oh damn, SD!Vader is the cutest bit. <3 Hee, and he's pointing! Should be used for an ad campaign- "Lord Vader wants YOU to join the Imperial Army."

Hey, you're applying for grad stuff, too? Nice. Aren't applications some of the most bothersome things...

When my photoshop is back, that is SO going to happen!

The applications are driving me nuts - and since I'm trying to get work to pay, I have a dozen extra forms which need to be completed and signed by me, and my boss, and my boss's boss, etc. Ugh.
