2010 – It’s HERE Folks
by Administrator Andrew on Jan.03, 2010, under Personal
Well the last time I wrote here, it was 2009 and now it’s 2010. I now have all 3 of my websites back onto the net and I must stop procrastinating and actually write the 11 articles I promised I would, there’s been lots of stuff happening lately that I really should cover. I also need to record 2 podcasts, 1 is my TechPod, the audio summary of those 11 articles and also Sam Anderson, KG and myself need to record our, look at 2009 in 2010 podcast, basically our thoughts of the last 10 years.
I’ve also got a bit of spending to do to get myself equipped for 2010. 2010 is going to be very different to 2009 I suspect. Already Odie from MMM has finished at Triple M Sydney (he finished his final shift today) and my friend KG starts his first job tomorrow, things are moving ahead. In only a few short weeks, I shall be entering year 12, so quickly this has happened too.
Also this is the official rule that my friends and I have decided (and I’ll try and follow), this year is ‘Twenty Ten’, not ‘Two Thousand and Ten’, because we never said ‘One Thousand, Nine Hundred and Ten’, we said ‘Nineteen Ten’.
Hopefully this decade will be the decade of Rock again, rather than hip hop and dance, therefore I nominate Hip-Hop, Dance and Rap for a GTFO award!
The GTFO awards were held on a show I listen to called NSFW and these were the winners of some of the categories
- In the Celebrities category the GTFO award was given to: Lady Gaga and Her Penis
- In the Internet Behaviours category the GTFO award was given to: Saying ‘First’ in the comments of items on the web.
- In the Memes category the GTFO award was given to: ‘I’ma let you finish, but’
- In the Organisations category the GTFO award was given to: the RIAA/MPAA
- In the People’s Choice category the GTFO award was given to: Mac Vs PC arguements
In previous years the GTFO award has been given to Chris Crocker, Playboy, Motorola Razor, Soviet Union, Y2K Bug, Hitler and American Online.
Lastly, I really hope Triple M Sydney & Melbourne make their way out of the rut they’re currently in at the moment, I think Triple M Melbourne has a chance, but at the moment Sydney doesn’t look very promising!
That’s all for tonight, plan to blog soon, hopefully after my 11 articles are done.
The Last Day of 2009!
by Administrator Andrew on Dec.31, 2009, under Personal
OMG, today is the last day of 2009. It started off with 4WDing up toward Helidon, Esk, Crows Nest and then Toowoomba. The area around Crows Nest has a fair bit to do with the national park nearby, but sadly none of that was able to be properly explored by foot due to rain, yes that stuff that falls out of the sky. Toowoomba and Crows Nest badly need the rain though, so I’m happy they got it, and we can always come back another day to fully explore the area.
What we were able to do and when I mean we, I mean my family and another family who went with us, what we were able to do was to find geocaches. Geocaches are little hidden treasures with a notepad inside them, that are hidden all across the world in sneaky places (there’s several in Cleveland for example) and your mission to to get the GPS co-ordinates from the website, read the clues and then head for those co-ordinates and try to find the treasure and log in the notepad you found it! There was one about 2 minutes outside of Gatton and one in Toowoomba.
Now as I sit at home writing this post, I’m watching Shaun McAllaff’s show on the TV and listening to 97.3 FM’s New Year’s Eve Party Mix which is commercial free from 6pm-6am – 12 hours of nonstop party music
So yea – no big parties, just me, my computer, my radio, my TV, my family, a quick chat to Ashlee, Alistair, Sara, Nick and Gary on the computer and the internet is the way I’m going to finish 2009, and I think it’s just awesome.
Have a great party everyone who’s partying. May 2010 be much better than 2009 was!
Oh and my 2010 resolution is 1280×800 if you wanted to know. Thank you for Kevin the ATM for that awesome idea!
