I was seconds away from downloading Second life... until i heard it was going to be metered for Australian users as of well about 1 hours ago... i think this is a dick move on Bigponds behalf... not only that but Bigpond is removing its big island and everyone with houses on it literally gets a big kick in the balls anyone with houses on it can say bye bye.
As of April when my familys contract with bigpond is also saying by bye... Bigpond can suck my #^%#.
Hiya guys i dont blog much but i thought i would fill in some people about the laptops that some Australian schools (i think just NSW) will be getting.

hey tengaged ts my b'day today and its been a really really crappy one.
Wel first of all i hopped onto my computer and started rowsing and soon found it that our Internet provider slowed us down for passing our download usage... nd now when it should take 10 seconds to load anything it takes 5 minutes...
and also my parents cant afford to buy me anything until next week (Not even a cake :[ )
and to top it off i have to wait 3 weeks to starting getting 'youth allowance' (Money from goverment in Australia)
.

Fk my life =(
on this sunday coming i am volunteering to help out with a charity event the charity i help out ARAFMI (Association for Relatives And Family of the Mentally ill) i help out because people dont understand that mentally ill people arent people who go on random pshyco's that go on rampages. They are nice people and a lot of people dont see that. So yeah i have my weekend planned =D
