Growing Up!

These are just notable notes emphasising the change going on around me:

* Did I tell you my mum went out and bought a new TV, DVD player, and something else that requires us to have three remote controls in the lounge where the new TV is? I'm such a retard, I don't know how to use the remote controls! My mum said she'll write out some instructions because "Press the blue button" isn't enough these days. Too many remote controls!

* We're getting the ADSL connected in a couple of days. I'm really excited about it - mainly because I get to set up the wireless network finally! SNAPS for me! I'm a bit nervous about it but I reckon I'll have someone on the phone to help me in my moment of faux techiness. Aah... fast downloads, smooth webcam streamage... it's gonna be fun!

* I finally got my Medicare Card today. Mum and I are gonna sit down and work out whether it's more beneficial for me to get my own private health care, or just pay my portion under the current family plan. I feel so independent =)

* I told my mum today that I'm just pretending to be responsible, when really, my ulterior motive is to get my independence so I can move out of here as soon as possible....... haha just kidding! I'm too chicken! My mum wants me to move into this place at Baulkham Hills but it's a 3-bedroom place so I need roomies first.

* I got an invitation to my high school's 5 year reunion. I actually wouldn't mind going. I'll probably only go if my friend's go, so hopefully there's a good turn out.

In other news...
I spent today in training - IT Fundamentals they call it and my, my are the concepts fundamental. We walked out going "If I have to see another ERD in my life.........." haha!

The most exciting thing we did today was an estimation exercise where we went into teams and had to estimate time and "cost" to make a paper aeroplane according to specification. Not only, did our team finish first - but I'm pretty sure we had the most cost-effective aeroplane. We didn't buy scissors - we used a fine point pen to cut the paper, and we didn't buy blu-tack to add weight to the nose of the plane (coz the specs said so) - we used a huge chunk of glue! We're so retarded - but it was so fun!

That's all. Seeya when I seeya... speak to you when I speak to you. Bye!
