Unbelievable, but its true.
There was doubt that South Africa would have its stadiums built by the time of the 2010 World Cup.
I think they’ve fixed that problem by hosting the homeless world cup. Homeless people playing a world cup competition on the street.
Crazy!
Went to see the football this evening, Australia vs Kuwait as part of the 2007 Asian Cup qualifying rounds. I’m glad we won 
This week has been pretty eventful already, and it’s going to get even busier! Over the weekend I noticed that my computer was making more funny noises; you may recall that I’ve had a string of calamities which seem to be aligned like dominos on an oily table. Because I’m nearly at tipping point with my computer, I just started banging it when the noise started, and the quiet hush of the fan resumed its whirring. Sure, poor solution, so I discovered the problem was with the power supply unit. Wherever there is life there is death, and wherever there is death there is medicine/engineering (or both!). I replaced the fan with a replacement which I have, but not before snipping the wires and realising that I couldn’t solder straight onto the psu board without risking imminent death on switching it on. I only found enough shrinkwrap to cover one solder point on the wires, so the other had to be rigged up with the shell of another larger cable i found in the bin. Resourcefulness is the most attractive quality a man can ever have, I’m sure of it.
I also indulged in some retail therapy this weekend, buying a wetsuit to go with my surfboard! It’s been quite warm lately in Sydney, and work has caused me to become jaded about ever being able to be in the sun with some free time. Today was a good day, so I went for a surf after leaving uni early for
Tomorrow I’m going to cheer for the Socceroos as we play against Kuwait for the Asian Cup qualifiers, and then on Thursday I’m off to see the All-American Rejects - looking forward to the game and the concert!
Wonderful weather this weekend, summer is coming back reeeaaallly soon! So, I bought a wetsuit and hopefully will be going back to the surf very soon.
hooray!
