Its my 20th birthday today. I got a coffee machine and a PSP from my grandparents and parents respectivally. Everyone else just gave me money and/or a card.

...

Birthdays really start to suck as you get older. v_v

EDIT: It looks like my parents didn't realise I'd need a memory card for it. Oh well, looks like I'll have to wait until I've bought one (I ordered a 4GB one from play.com).

That's just a typical week for me. XD

Hmm...should I drink a coffee now, I need to go to bed early...ah screw it. *gets out cafetiere*

So at 9:00 this morning I'm supposed to have a portfolio exam. Said portfolio consists of 4 weeks classwork (which I've fallen behind on). I'm repeating my first year so if I fail a test then I'm getting kicked out of university. Last night while I was planning to calmly chip away at the work (its not really too hard)...the internet goes down.

I did the best with what I could (two hard copies of 1 weeks worth of work) and headed off to the test (having been up all night) hoping to scrape a pass.

I arrived in the lecture theatre with 5 minutes to spare and 13 pages of bodged together portfolio. Then the lecturer came in and said "The test has been postponed until Monday due to problems with the network".

Yay ^_^

For added irony I happened to try and pass the time in the night by watching a corrupted AVI of the exam episode of Soul Eater (it stopped half way through due to the aforementioned corrupt file).

Anyway, Crytek (of Crysis fame) bought it out and save 40 jobs. On the plus side, maybe we'll see Timesplitters running on the Crysis engine, on the downside apparently most of the Timesplitters related talent left to form Pumpkin Beach and apparently want to distance themself from it.

Oh well.

In other news, Bill Gates has come out as a supervillain: [link]
