After completing my music technology course, I thought I might share with you my last piece of assessment.
For my portfolio I chose 4 sounds that were representations of my life and changed them in different way.
Yes it does sound VERY weird and some sounds are EXTREMLY annoying
*I’m just waiting for a reply on how to actually put it in a post*
More rules for those of us who have their licence. Commencing on the 12th October 2009 these following rules have been added in/changed:
The changes include banning the use of fog lights in clear night driving weather and performing u-turns across single continuous centre lines. Other amendments target driving with unsecured passengers and outlawing wheeled recreational devices, such as skateboards, on the road after dark

National Bank - Its a good bank, I’ve never had any problems with it ….this afternoon I was about to log onto Internet banking when this advertisement made me thing twice..
This post will be a simple one - I can’t be bothered to go into depth about what happened.
This is what was suppose to happen Hervey Bay>Sydney (Virgin) - Sydney>Melbourne (Jet Star)…
Instead - 3.5 hours LATE for the Hervey Bay > Sydney flight…. waited in air-port in my OWN HOME TOWN for 5 hours. THEN! missed the flight from Sydney>Melbourne (Jet Star) because the first flight was late.
(Plus was shifted from row 6 - row 26!!!!!)
Got to Sydney and had to buy ANOTHER $350 ticket to get to Melbourne with shitty Virgin because Jet Star had no more flights to Melbourne….
Had to find the closet flight to Melbourne because all hotels in Sydney booked out because of…something.. (can’t remember)
Then Sydney > Melbourne (virgin) was delayed an hour! Not to mention - this flight didn’t even go where we wanted to. We had to catch a HOUR bus ride to AVALON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and got to bed around 1am in the morning!
Melbourne>Sydney (Jet Star) was delayed an hour again!
By this stage I was sick of flying!!!! MAIN POINT:
Its pathetic how we are expected to buy more tickets when another air-line makes us miss our flight. They told us there was nothing they could do and to make a complaint on the website - WELL MY FRIEND - that’s is not going to do anything - its called the delete BUTTON! STUPID VIRGIN!

I was just watching the Top 10 @ 10 channel and Austar when Beyonce’s new song came on - called “Sweet Dreams”.
The first thing that popped out at me was the beginning. It starts with playing the “sweet dreams” lullaby and I thought to myself - please do not make a re-mix out of a lullaby. But thankfully it didn’t!
So that was alright, but it was the next thing that made me decide to write this post! Before I mention this, no I’m not a lesbian.. it just really shocked me because I was like “I want what she is wearing!!! so it can help me!!”
Now this photo is taken from the film clip and O.M.G!! How does he boobs stay in that outfit when she’s dancing around with such energy!!!!
I couldn’t believe the magic that the wardrobe people have worked to make her boobs stay in!! Now the reason I was so amazed at this is because I too have a large bust and I don’t think I could ever wear something like that without it looking odd!
How could they possible make them stay in when she is dancing with such energy????? I want to know so I can have watch she is having instead of having to worry about my boobs falling out when I go out dancing!! (not to mention, then I could wear open tops like that!!! WOO, LOL!!)
re post from benmay.org
Did you know the Government is proposing an internet censorship scheme that goes further than any other democracy in the world? That’s why I’m one of over 100,000 Australians who have signed the petition to Save the Net. Will you join me?
This Friday, our petition will grace the pages of newspapers across the nation. That way the Government, who are due to make a decision any day now, will be left in no doubt as to how deeply unpopular this kind of censorship is in Australia. Can you help me make that petition too large to ignore?

Our Government should be doing all in its power to take Australia into the 21st century economy, and to protect our children. This proposed internet censorship does neither. The plan has even been slammed by children’s welfare groups, who say the filter is “fundamentally flawed” and simply will not work.
Can you join me and children’s welfare groups, internet providers, consumers, engineers, network administrators, and over 100,000 everyday Australians in defence of our freedoms? Let’s make sure this Friday’s newspaper ad has an impact too large to ignore.

Thanks!
I’ve never been a fan of long nails. I always rip them off before they get too long. But Josie was kind enough to put some fake ones on for me.. and so far so good.
( I have a tendency to chew the fake ones as well - whoops!)
I get to pick up my new/old car on the weekend. I’ve upgraded from a holden corsair.. that i’m sure hardly anyone has heard of… to a Hyundi Lantra…1991 model with only 100,000ks on it! Hurray!
So thats all very exciting.
Also.. something that sparked me as odd today in class…
we were doing introductions around the class and everyone had to say who they were and what they were studying. Everyone did.. appart from one guy next to me who just said “Hi, my name is Paul..and thats all I want to say”….
I’m sorry - is your degree too imbarrising to say? Are you some kind of secret agent?….. or… if none of these - then your just a smart arse who thinks its cool not to do what everyone else is doing.
Woke up… and packed up a little… then Ben and I walked over to the shops for breakfast. I had pancakes and he had… a crossant…(ham/cheese/tomatoe)… then… Ben went back up to the hotel while I did some more clothes shopping! = )
Then… I came back and we checked out of the hotel and headed to Auckland…. on the way to Auckland we stopped at Maccas because we were starving (from driving) and it was 1:00pm..
Missed the turn off to the airport.. so had to turn around somehow on the high way….. then had trouble finding the Juicy rentals.. but found it tanks to my awesome directions!!
Then we dropped the car off at the Juicy Rentals place and gota shuttle to the airport and said good bye to NZ
annnddd… late again…
Today we woke up and had our coco puffs in our cups… with a little spoon…. then we packed up and checked out of the Rydges hotel.
We left Rotarua and headed off to Hamilton. On the way we stopped at somce place that I can’t remember the name of, but there were two buildings. One was a giant sheep and one was a giant dog! That was pretty cooooool… then we arrived in hamilton. We had trouble finding our hotel due to bad directions from wotif….. and because one side of the street was closed.. but we finaly made it…. (stupid directions… because it wasn’t on the corner of anything.. it was BEHIND another building lol) however,… they didn’t offer free parking.. you would have to pay $15 for vale parking.. so we decided to look around the town and go to the shops before looking for somewhere else to park the car..
Went to a few shopping centers.. including a GIANT two story “The Wearhouse”…which is still called the wearhouse in NZ un like Australia…. then we came back to the hotel and decided to pay the man to park the car because it was to unsafe to leave it out in the open….. then we had a relax in the hotel…
By that time is was lunch.. so we walked over to a shopping center that we relased we had just parked at and waster $3 when we could have walked….. I did a bit of shopping for some clothes… while ben went up and brought some pop corn and coke for the movie we were going to watch at the hotel…
went back to the hotel and selected a movie to watch (only $14.00) - is cheaper then going to movies… then… by that time.. it was dinner time… and we decided to head downstairs, have a drink with a wedges platter… and off to bed!
Then…. while Ben did some work on his laptop - I walked over to the shops and did some clothes shopping = ) then… I came back to the hotel and we watched a movie.. that has slipped my mind….but it was a good movie. Only $14.00 to watch it.. cheaper then the movies!
and.. I can’t remember what order we did eevrything in.. so I shall come abck and edit this post later. = )
