Granted, it doesn't start til next term (which is roughly five weeks away, so we're told), but he has a job! Either 0.6 part time, or full time (likely full time, so he's told). At the school he did some relief at on Thursday, the same one who told him they wouldn't have anything this year, but probably next year - he got called in on Thursday after doing his relief and was told that one of the maths teachers wanted to drop to part time/take six months leave. He rang on Friday to get confirmation and was told that yes, the job is his for next term. And again, will likely lead to a more permanent role next year when they amalgamate with another school.
Very excited... now we just have to get enough money from somewhere to get us through the next five weeks. Though he hasn't been paid for Thursday's work yet and he's going to be back there tomorrow for more relief.
Maybe we'll be able to stop borrowing money from my mother-in-law! (had to do that this week to pay the rent )

Finally, remember what I said about coming to Sydney? It's actually happening! I'll be at your Supanova this weekend as a BLU Sniper (which is ironically by far my worst class). Please say hi if you spot me!
I...May have saw you around? I'm not sure. There were a few TF2 costumes about. If you saw the group of three cats on Saturday, you saw me (:
Wow. We just had an earthquake. Literally the first one I've ever experienced.
I actually thought someone had the washing machine on.

Well, like I said, I assumed it was the washing machine making the house shake as it normally does.
It made my bed move though. Which is sadly the only action it's seen in over a year

Jeez, nice headline. Way to give a girl a heart attack.
Read the bit about the 6.5 in New Zealand and just about freaked out - fortunately, it was the North Island I don't care about them Sounds like it didn't do much anyway - though I was amused at the comment in the article about one woman mentioning her kid didn't notice the quake because they were doing an earthquake drill at the time!

Well, the HSC has been a delightful experience so far, inasmuch as too much work can be considered 'delightful'. Still, I'm slowly procrastinating my way through the workload, and it's only another 4 months.

So, exhibited our projects last night. My final grade is 95%!
I ended up top of the class! And I received an award at the exhibition. "Award for the most outstanding achievement". Wow...the effort really paid off! I'm really proud of myself.
I even won a ZBrush license and an XBox 360!
The whole class did great. I think everyone had a really good final project on exhibition.
Anyone who wants to have a look (and is around Melbourne), my project will be on display until the 29th of June at Victoria University (300 Flinders St, Level 17). I think the floor's open from 10am-5pm weekdays (I'll be there myself tomorrow).
