Can you guess what it is!

[Blog]

Alright this could be one of the stupidest things I ever attempt but I am gonna try and start a blog as it seems to be the 'in' thing on the net, and far be it for me to jump on a populist band wagon, but i'm gonna give it a go. If nothing else it will provide regular, how regular remains to be seen, fresh content on the site. As one great web developer and friend, once told me 'content is key'!, alright it was this earlier this week. Enjoy.

Wow keeping thing up to date is gonna be harder than I thought Ive put it off for an age now so though I better try and write something. Had a wicked christmas in colorado skiing and falling down the mountains, and it was warm almost too warm a welcome change. Have uploaded the pics if you care to have a look. That took up most of my holiday and didn't get to see many people either side of it but it was a very welcome break from work. I was back to that only a few days after New Years in my deserted flat, but slowly people started to filter back, and its been back in full swing for a week now. We finished another moudule, setting up a business and have entered it into a competition will keep you posted on this, should do quite well. It snowed here yesterday night but was all gone by the time I got up this morning pathetic, hopefully there will be more soon. Will try and post sooner if work doesnt get in the way!

Just finished an intensive week of lectures 0930 till 1800 everyday, but it went pretty quick, the module is Enterprise and Distributed Systems, its been a lot of business speak but that's a welcome change from Computer Science and quite enjoyed it. It was also at a different place so welcome change of scene, from the drab class room we are normally in. We have to come up with a business idea in our group, and pretty much launch it, so could be pretty fruitful, as for the idea well thats a trade secret at the moment but will be revealed shortly. Flatmate is cooking me dinner tonight so should be a good evening once I get back from work.

Finally got a proper nights sleep I have been working on a University Project all week, a new portal system based on Semantic Web technologies, the Internet 2.0 to most people. Played football for John's, my college this morning and it was the usual story 5-1 defeat to Eustinov College, the graduate college, where I would be if I hadn't chosen Johns. I was in goal so probably should take a large share of the blame, but I got injured in the second half, landed on my shoulder funny and had to come off, typically after that they didnt have a shot on goal!! I was injured for the last two they scored.

Here is the first entry in my web blog, think i'll stick to the relative highlights which today was definitely my first trip to the Durham Gala Cinema, to see The Incredibles which was frankly incredible, quite possible the best pixar yet. Watch out for Elastigirl using her special powers in ingenious ways, it superb. But I also had a my weekly shift as lab assistant and muddled my way through 2 hrs of explaining proof by Induction and substitution as I struggled to wake up. Now to do some real work.
