Wrong Headphones Syndrome

Thursday, February 13th, 2003

My mum just sent me a package for my birthday (Friday 14th Feb!) and I got my full over ear headphones that I lent to my brother over xmas back. I took them into work and took my walkman headphones out, you know the ones that have the band that goes over the back of the head? So I plug them in and listen to my MP3s for a while. Then as you do, you take them off to move around the office, and then I came back and put my headphones back on. Half an hour later I realised I’d put the headphones on that were unplugged, and had no music going… how mental is that? Ah well, they are now in my bag so I won’t make that mistake again! :D

I GOT THE JOB!

Wednesday, February 12th, 2003

W00t! I just got a call from Jonquil from Dev-zone, and I have the job! Wow! I was not expecting a same-day reply! I would just like to say that I believe that God set me up this job, and I want to just publicly say thanks to Him for his blessings. Cheers to all my friends who prayed for me and those who supported me!

My first day at Dev-zone is on March 10! w00ta!

Job Interview

Wednesday, February 12th, 2003

I went for a job today. Part Time PHP Developer for Dev-zone.org. The interview went pretty well I think, with four staff members on the other side of the desk. Two of them were IT department, one is moving into the IT department, and also the general manager. They asked me a lot of good questions which assesed my skill, some were quite interesting to answer. They said they would get back to me within a week, so I hope I get this job… :)

Got My Move On

Thursday, February 6th, 2003

Last night was pretty good. Mr Scruff played for over 5 hours I’m sure, but I left after he played ‘Get a Move On’ at around 4:15am. The Scruff started pumping the tunes out about 11:30pm. I was largely disappointed he didn’t play much of his own tracks – He played in this order: Ug, Blackpoll Roll, one I can’t remember (possibly Shrimp), Fish, and then Get a Move On. Disappointed because earlier in the night I saw an LP with Sweet Smoke, Come On Grandad, and Valley of the Sausages on his deck – Maybe we missed an intro track…
But he blew me and Mufasa away with the range of genres he played – 70′s funk, hip-hop, latino, house, and jazz jazz jazz! Mufasa had to leave early, he had a gut-ache :(
Overall, I give the night a 7/10, mainly because he didn’t play enough of his own tracks, but it was still an enjoyable night :D
