Maths today

I was supposed to have my online maths/ICT tutor last Wednesday but his phone line was down so he couldn't teach. Today, though, his Internet was back and we did algebra. I thing you'll find me weird and never read this blog again if I say this, but I kind of like algebra, I sort of find it satisfying getting all the numbers and letters in order and working out the calculation. I am also ashamed to say that if I ever need turning on (sexually) I head website selling scientific calculators or HD video cameras.

I found a video on You Tube of a guy who took his photo every day for eight years. EIGHT! All aligned perfectly. It astonishes me how people don't forget to do it. I'd love to do one but, like many of my previous blogs I forget about them and they die and I just dust them in the the eternal wasteland of the recycling bin.

Last night I went to Kez's house and watched, oh sorry, judged a bit of Happy Feet, some Running With Scissors and the whole of Flushed Away on her BAFTA DVD player. I didn't particularly like Running With Scissors and Happy Feet didn't seem to have a very strong story line, but Flushed Away (which I had seen at the cinema previously) had a beginning, a middle and an end, a good story line, comedy and good British actors.

Yet another paragraph. I have discovered that I love manga. I have even been driven to start drawing! With a pencil and paper! Uncommon thing in my technological world, where art is something that you do in Photoshop or Illustrator. I drew one that I really liked so I put it into my computer and traced it in Photoshop. Then, realising the error of my ways, imported it into illustrator and then exported it into an astonishingly massive JPEG image. You can see it at http://finniii.deviantart.com/.

Hasta la vista, reader!
