go away, give me a chance to miss youhrm.. it used to seem like a long time between posts when i missed a day or two.. but its been like 10 days now and i dont really feel like i have anything much to say. certainly nothing that profound.
anyways.. last week in frisbee i did a 'greatest' =) which is like when you jump out of bounds and catch the disc, then throw it again before you land. i almsot did it twice in one night.. but no one on my team was paying attention to catch the disc again =p
i snuck in an extra frisbee session this week by going to hills training, which included the vertical leap gizmo. its basically this big pole with a disc attached to the top to test how high you can grab a disc out of the air.
this week frisbee was "rained out" which means not enough ppl turned up cos they were scared of the rain. we still had pick up games in the pouring rain which is always fun. there was some guy there who wanted to fight me for some reason.. and im like "dood, what are you? like in high school?" .. and most of the guys were like "yeh" =p some of them were up to 10 years younger than me (gah i feel old now)
on the way to frisbee i accidently left my handbrake on for about half the trip.. is that bad? it sounded terrible and im like "wtf? why is there no power" =p
in the world of java wev development, ive been playing with some new things lately like Spring Web Flow and a lot of different methods for building UI like pagination. sadly none seem to be that great. web based UI is always so buggy its so frustrating. and on top of that, most of the business user requirement ambiguity lies in the UI, which means lots of last minute changes there (gah). oh how id love to be in one of those places where a designer builds the UI and the coders do the backend.
yesterday was anzac day public holiday so some of us went around to hemas to discuss investing.. which was mostly the ever popular real estate vs stocks debate. i think stocks won in the end.. but it will probably continue at a later date =p we also went to see the movie Sunshine at Towers. it got a bunch of really good reviews from all over the place, which is pretty rare for a sci fi nowadays. but i have to say i was a bit disappointed with it in the end. whilst it looked cool and there were some interesting concepts in it, it kidna tailed off at the end. actually the first half of the movie was really interesting... but some exec probly said "this is boring" and made them put some stupid hollywood crap into the end to make it more "exciting" =p
on the tues nite before the holiday we headed to shelles to watch some Black Books and to consume large amounts of wine, cheese and leftover easter eggs. mm. it was a bit of a pig out session, but its been a while for me, so i wasnt too fussed as i scoffed down caramello eggs =p
