It's no secret that I see absolutely no point whatsoever in Eurovision. So every year I avoid it.
Every year, the UK does not win. Good! And every year this ends up in large amounts of bitter sulking about how it's all politics and "not about the music" blah blah blah. Again, yawn. Talk about being bad losers...
In more interesting news, I would like to report that Firefox 3 on KDE is an ugly mess. I need to find a different theme that isn't broken. Not amused.
Revision is still very boring. I've been amusing myself by spending lots of time in a boat (I know, how surprising).
In the last few weeks I've done BUSA polo, been surfing in St David's (awesome fun, see photos!) and a few random canal trips. At half 7 this morning - yes, I really was awake that early - I was paddling to the Mailbox and back.
Anyway, last Saturday we went over to Llangollen, paddled up the canal and then back down the river Dee. In the sunshine. Lovely
That's Town Falls there, with some random paddler on it. I avoided the big white bit and took the somewhat scrapey 'chicken shoot' on the right, heh. Also portaged (got out and walked around) Serpent's Tail, the other 'difficult' bit.
But it was a very fun day, nice and chilled with no stress or panicking I really enjoyed myself. Oh, and had a very yummy apple pie flavour ice cream afterwards. Second ice cream of the year and it's only just May!
Big difference from the last time I took that photo in December - that was too much water and very much stress and panic, heh.
Anyway, exams start in just over a week so I should probably do less procrastinating and more actual revision, eek.
Facebook has added two new features in the last few weeks. Well, I'm sure it's always adding new stuff, but I mean noticeable things.
Most obviously there's a new chat thing. Which is ok, if slightly unnecessary. I don't realise it's there and don't notice when people send me messages, but most annoyingly, it changes (and 'flashes') the title text of the web page. Websites should NEVER be allowed to do this! ever.
Also new and annoying is "people you might know". I'll give it some credit, it is fairly accurate. However, most of the people showing up on it are twats who I went to school with, didn't like and rarely spoke to. So yes, of course now I want them to be my 'friend'! er, no. If I wanted to know anything about what these idiots are doing with their lives now we're all grown up, I'd have already added them...
I'd quite like to be able to completely kill this feature, but no, you can't. Stupid facebook.
