Happy 2009 (ish)

I hope everyone had a very merry christmas and that you have a very prosperous 2009 (even though it won’t be). I haven’t actually “blogged” in ages. It’s been more about reviews and tutorials. I wasn’t as excited about christmas this year as I was more than happy with the new love of my life I got in september. I bought a special offer 19” sharp display HD ready!! to replace my old display which was crapping out on me alot, aswell as having a poor picture quality. Aint it beautiful!
I had to find a HDMI cable to go with it since one doesen’t come with the display and cheapskate curry’s had them at £50!! Found one off amazon for £5. This goes great with Call of Duty 4: Modern warfare which I also got for christmas. I’m a bit late on the gaming but I’m considering Call of Duty: World at War next month. Its an amazing game with killer graphics thanks to the HD lead.
With the last of my christmas money I bought a new book on PHP and MySQL. I want to learn some back end development in time for College or Uni. Since I’m satisfied that I’ve got standard front end development under my belt (HTML, CSS) thats one of my new year resolutions. James was kind enough to lend me some room and a sub-domain on his dreamhost server so I could test out my PHP scripts because my server sucks for php support
Aswell as to do a 365 project for flickr, taking a photo for every day of the year. That should put my D40 to good use aswell as my flickr account, and probably to help my photography come along.
As far as school goes. I return on the fifth and 3 days after than on the 8th its mah Birthday!!!11! about a week after that I get an english exam. (which I’ve yet to revise for) and then I get my math gcse results back. Pressure or what ?
I’m almost done now and I mean that. The last thing I want to talk about it a tumblr theme I’ve been working on for a while. Found here I’m trying to add in all the things possible to make it a good theme for public use. Rather than it being a basic theme with a small style sheet that only works in one browser. I’m still working on it and tweaking it but I’m sure it’ll be done soon (ish).
Thats it and I hope everyone has a happy new year :D
