loes all, i thought i'd take the oppertunity to write a new journal entry. I've recently submitted a couple of deviations. I think i'm getting the hang of Gimp now. I know alot of people swear by Photoshop (Even i did at one point!) But Gimp is just as capable as Photoshop, its just in Photoshop one button will apply an effect, whereas in Gimp several applied filters can get the same effect.


i failed my driving test a few weeks ago. I've put it down to mainly nerves, i felt rushed and stuff so i made silly mistakes like not looking left when pulling away and stuff. I've got another test booked in for 17th of december, fingers crossed, i'll pass >_<.

My laptop... is err a little screwed up. My current windows install says "It is now safe to turn the power off" when shutting down... very Windows95-esque. It also doesn't display a battery monitor... which is not too useful on a laptop tbh. I've got Ubuntu Breezy Badger on here at the moment. But thats a little screwed up too. In particular something i might have installed is annoying Gnome, so much soo that its taking 4-5minutes to startup, thank god for the OpenBox+PyPanel+Conky setup! So i'm gonna shift my data around and backup, and then format put debian sarge on methinks. Install windows again, but on a 5GB Partition, then use Debian as my primary OS.

as the italians say: Ciao
