The best way you can spend the coming 19minutes of your life ... trust me! He has expressed some of my thoughts perfectly.

craft: desk organiser




I love this idea. Since I've hoarded incredible amounts of pencils and ballpoints over the years, and my desk if full of tins holding them, I think I'd have to skip this one ... or I can make it for my bedside table, hmmmmmmmmmmmm *hops off to find an extra/old directory or yellow pages*

Instructable by my bf!!!

My sexy, geeky boyfriend has created this Instructable: Amiga Joystick - USB Camera Cable Release. He has received an incredible amount of hits and got featured on various blogs, so at this point I'm feeling slightly ashamed of myself that I didn't mention it in my space!!!!

So go ahead and enjoy your geeky selves :)

wishing that there is a Ctrl+Z option in real life


I don't want to dwell on what has happened today as it's still too raw. Just wanted to let you know that I've had my driving license test today ... I've managed to pass through Hamrun and B'Kara, I've managed to keep within the speed limit, I didn't do any stupid things especially round the roundabout, I managed to switch off the car when I was the lights and switch it on again without any problems and without missing any of the steps, and there I was ... sooooooooooooooooooooo close to the finishing line, less than 1 minute again, and viola'!!! A pedestrian choses to cross the road on the zebra cross just as I'm moving off and BAM!!! Test failed!!!!

So close and yet so far ... as the Maltese saying goes: "fl-ahhar tal-mazzita sibt iz-zbiba". Right now I'm really really really wishing that there is a Ctrl+Z option in real life!


I'm off to mull and continue with my sulking ... hope that you're having a better day than mine ...
