So apart from a bigger work load – which I guess has come about since uni is about to kick in, and I’d want to make sure I’m on top of things, a good friend has gone overseas for at least the next 6 months to study architecture at Bauhaus University. There was a farewell concert with his band last Friday night, and spent most of the week sorting out things for him – mainly camera related.

Uni is starting tomorrow for me – something I don’t really look forward to, but I’ve got to get it done… Project Management and the Professional to look forward to…
Oh the album has also arrived – its half the size of the Europe one… but none the less, its turned out quite well. I have to say – the cover is AWESOME.

I’ve just finished a day of rewriting a 20 page document which was so badly formed that having to work with the RTF equivalent was a waste of time. I rewrote it using Open Office and apart from the size of the file being cut down to a quarter compared to the Word equivalent, it WORKS in our reporting subsystem. I was screaming at it earlier, but its not bad as a standard – just as long as its formatted well.

In the past few weeks, I’ve turned 22, been working quite a bit, contracted a virus on my home desktop and flew to Dubbo for a day for work. I’ve spent quite a bit of time at the beach whenever I can. The weather has changed for the better since it was way too hot last week. The Victoria Bushfires have been quite a horrific disaster – my closest experience with this was when I was in Dubbo yesterday and the air was filled with smoke which has drifted all the way from Victoria. The images which have been appearing in newspapers around the place are quite strong and emotional. In a way I wish I could be there to photograph all of it unfolding.

Uni is starting in a couple weeks and then it’ll be.. busy from then on. I’m waiting for the album to be made at the moment. I’ve also got to start making a few prints to hang up around the place.

A shot from the plane yesterday:
