Firstly, I completed a watercolour painting that had been sitting on my drawing board for well over a month (a lot of things cropped up!), and it was a present for my dear boyfriend celebrating his 21st!

It took me a very long time to draw out and paint, but it was fun to do! I like doing personalised paintings like this, with lots of things going on cause it means people have to study them for ages to see everything that is going on! I suppose I just like a reason to stare at something for a long period of time, busy-ness just makes a picture more interesting! But yes, that is done and completed and received, so no more worrying about that!
And then I've also been working on a new sort of game for the Ariel Trust as part of their Road Safety CD-ROM, its basically a Distance/Time graph, but the user can click a button and change the speed and therefore change the line on the graph.
Okay, not the most exciting thing in the world but it does have sound effects! Yeah!
So whilst doing that, I've started using a book to teach me a few more things in ActionScript, which is sort of scary, but kind of cool, as I'm actually able to read some code and know whats going on and such! (Which may not be cool in cool kids eyes, but I think the nerd kids will be looking on at me in pride!)
And yeah. Actually, thats all I've been up to really, which I assure you has taken me more time to do than I'm making out!
But I've now said to my part time job that I'm no longer available to do extra hours, as the last few weeks have been so hectic and I'd rather be paying attention to getting a job in an area of work that I actually want to do! But I'm sure my tune will change when I want more money, but I'll hold out till then...!
Oh yeah! And I found some interesting videos to do with business/human behaviour on Friday, obviously they've been made more interesting by the COOL illustrations that are going on at the same time, so I may have to try something similar to this guy too! As it looks like a lot of fun to do!

Anyway, theres a bunch of others on the RSA website too if anyone wants to see more!
