Happy Happy.
I've just registered at the University of South Africa to do a Bachelor of Education degree (see related link). It's four years minimum, and is the equivalent of an honours degree, which means I could technically go for a Masters degree immediately after that (though why, I'm not quite sure!). In any event, I think after ten years I've found what I really want to do. Yay, me! I've always said IT was more of a hobby for me, so teaching it inspires that passion that was sucked out of me; having to earn money from a hobby was not fun.
Since the beginning of last week I have been teaching Computer Literacy at an awesome high school in the north of Johannesburg. Since a number of my students are not particularly interested in computers, I have implemented a challenge where they get to ask me anything about technology. If I cannot answer them immediately, they go into a draw to win a 256MB USB MP3 player which I think is pretty cool.
Happy New Year! On a more humbling note, my sympathies are with the families and friends of the 220 000 victims of the tsunami disaster in South East Asia.
It has certainly been an interesting week in the world: Around 125 000 people perished in South East Asia from tsunamis caused by a massive earthquake. Microsoft had to pay their fine to the EU. The Euro is too strong. I turned 28. My other half is away at Sun City with family. Oh, that’sContinue reading Another year, another wrinkle
Well I made it to 28. When I was younger, I never imagined myself making it this far. I'm serious! I never actually thought I'd ever get past 27. Well, so far it's almost three hours old, but my 28th birthday has proven every feeling wrong. Granted I have until 6pm local time to be sure, but let's not get technical.
Tomorrow is my birthday. I'll be 28 years old. I'm wondering if I can pull a fast one on the world and pretend I'm turning 27 again. I've been out of the public eye for a while, so it may be possible!
Nick broke up with me tonight, over MSN. Stay classy.
What a load of SHIT! I had to generate a new blog entry to get this off my chest. Some monkey who claims to be a consultant has labelled the World Community Grid project a potential "powerful cyber-terror weapon". The article can by found here. He reckons that if "hackers manage to penetrate the super-network", it could be used for "sinister purposes".
