"Ipsa scientia potestas est" - Knowledge itself is power...

Well, i'm gonna just steal greenpanda666's idea of a summer round up too.

This summer has been a fairly good one. I have gone out furlongs more than I usually did, and achieved a fair bit. The quick rundown;

- I have managed to get some nice new clothes for the upcoming school year, involving many trips to town, which have been fun.

- I've been to various people's houses and actually gone out and done stuff for once!

- I managed to get a fairly good set of results, although I didn't do that big a thing that I would have liked.

-I managed to make a fair few thing in my garage using odds and ends that i'm fairly proud of (see pressure pad)

- Health-wise, i'm not bang up to fitness as I wanted. My plans of doing excercise was sidetracked a few times, so I still have a gut.

- I managed to read a fair number of useful classics, such as Catch-22, Neuromancer and Y: The Last Man.

- I've managed to distinguish different alcohol, and have tried vodka and moonshine whiskey. (Tastes like shite)

- I have attempted to restard Keyboard playing. It's a start, although I would love to try out a saxophone.

- My main failure this summer is that I haven't been able to get a job. Ideally, i'd like to work where there's lots of books, such as the local library or Borders. But we'll see, I suppose.

I'm still worrying a bit about the subject's i've chosen for AS. I took Physics, Maths, Computing and History, but i'm worried that instead of taking Sciencey subjects I should have picked Artsy subjects; I would have changed for English Lit, Philosophy, History and something else.

Meh.

Bit scared now, since I wish I was good at Chemistry. Lots of things I could have done with that.
A list of interesting jobs I would have liked doing;
- Physicist, of the normal sort

- Astrophysicist, or something to do with space travel (like ground control, building it etc). I'm no Astronaut though.

- Meteorologist. Looking at a book I was given with various jobs, Meteorology fits in well with my subject choices. (Meteorology=Weather forecasting)

- Communications; filming movies/TV shows, etc.

- Editor/Publisher; Something to do with books would be mighty useful.

- Pyrotechnician. I would have loved to do this, but unfortunatly it requires high levels of Chemistry (Pyrotechnics are the fire displays in movies, gigs, etc, so the explosion guy xD)

- Programmer; Working on physics engines for games?

- Inventor; this is an outlandish and unpractical one, but hell its interesting.

- Pilot; very difficult with glasses.

Anyhoo.

I had a haircut. It's short. My stupidly long hair is gone.

School tommorow! Let's hope that I can keep organised this time, eh?
