I find the whole concept odd. Sex change is one thing but the whole Chakat thing is weird.

Would that be a sex change to both? Add A Sex, sounds like a slogan......

I think its just a outlet for introverted bisexual honestly.

Basically he was just young and stubborn. If he was on here now I bet he would be fine. He is odd, but for 80% of his time here he was fine. He just had typical teenage arrogance and wouldnt back down on anything.

I came to work today in the middle of about the 50th major snowstorm of this winter. I must be either tough or dumb.

I'm also manning the shop on my own this week, while the store owner takes some time off. Hours have been shaved a bit for my sake and I'll get Saturday free too but it's still a longer week than I usually get. Happily, the store hasn't burned down, been shut down by the Feds or otherwise been besmirched on my watch. SO far.

My new phone has a bad keyboard. I mean I have a Galaxy S3, but I have issues with it. My last phone was great.

The autocorrect is too autocorrecty as it thinks I am writing in a different language altogether. My last phone had a decent autocorrect in it.

The keyboard is also slightly off. Like all the buttons shifted slightly to the right which is odd.

If you are willing to pay for it, I'd buy Swiftkey in the android market. I've yet to find a manufacturer standard keyboard, be it Android's own or the handset maker's, that beats it. Nor do I find the iPhone or Windows Phone keyboards rival it. Blackberry's new OS keyboard comes close but that means having a new Blackberry which is...no.

Well my week of work alone is over. The biggest problem was simply boredom: though I was required to keep the shop open for business, there wasn't much of that. It was dead all week. On the other hand, you usually don't get paid for sitting around feeling bored!

Well, boredom's not the worst thing that could've happened, CPH. ;)

Well I just got my first (and hopefully not last) acceptance letter to Grad School, I'm officially not screwed when I graduate in May!
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Whilst my nephews and nieces are away for the weekend, I figured I'd get their bedrooms moved about and sorted, as they've all been in one room for the last few days.

However, due to my ineptness when it comes to DIY, I halted midway last night as I was making a tremendous amount of noise, and didn't want to annoy the neighbours.

I decided to continue this morning, and although it may have been a complete accident, I succeeded in taking the bunk bed apart (albeit being attacked by numerous pieces of metal because when I took the last screw out, the whole thing collapsed on me).

I'll attempt to put it together in the new room tomorrow, but I have little hope of success.

Congratulations :)

Woohoo! It's good to have options.
