unsure where to start...

there's nothing particularly noteworthy to report this week other than our new tv! and my high distinction...

so i'll start with the new tv! ben and i have been looking around at tv's casually (ie not in a remotely serious way) for some months - we kinda settled on the samsung series 6 lcd - anything bigger than 42inches but we weren't ready to shell out $3,500 or something like that....

so imagine my surprise when catch of the day (i've already blogged about this current addiction) has the one we are looking for, but slightly bigger (ie 46 inches) and much cheaper than jb hifi as their 'catch' - $1,800 no less which is almost a 50% savings....

so could i help myself?

of course i bloody couldn't! so now we have a ridiculously big tv which in fact, is too big for the tv unit...

guess there'll be a new tv unit next!

also, and MUCH more importantly, i got a high distinction for my first assignment in this module...quite a surprise really as i had been sick and handed it in nearly 3 weeks late (with permission) and ended up pulling it together in a lot less time than i would usually spend...

in other news, i only have 6 more work days to go before xmas! and how relieved am i, altho my 'customer' does seem to have taken his head out of his arse of late and is now behaving in a way much more akin to being a human being....wonder if it will last?

i have mixed feelings about xmas but not gonna go into that here...

and it seems there are very few people (and by people, i mean cupcake manufacturers) who are working in early january...

which ordinarily i couldn't give a toss about but since i want cupcakes for my birthday party, this is now becoming an issue!!!

sooooo if you know any good cupcake manufacturers who will be working in early jan, then pls let me know!
