So exams are coming up and my blog hasn’t been updated in a little while.
My English exam is on Friday this week, and the rest of my exams are next week. Can’t wait…
At least we have an activity day thing afterwards. I chose the photography option (none of the others appealed). I’ll be taking photos from my iPhone 4S, so I’ll see how they compare to everyone else’s DSLR shots…
As I mentioned earlier, I purchased an iPhone 4S with money from my job and my birthday. This continues my tradition of a new phone every year for my birthday since 2008; starting with a Sagem MY511x in 2008, a Nokia 3120c in 2009, a Nokia 6120c in 2010, and an iPhone 4S in 2011.
Best phone ever. I love it to death. That’s all I’ll say about it.
Work at McDonalds is pretty good, all things considered. I do love having money whenever I want it, wherever I want it. Don’t want to make a career out of it, but it’s a good start.
Anyways, this is just me procrastinating before exams, when I really really really should be revising. So I guess the next post will be some time closer to Christmas, maybe even with some of the better photos from the activity day. Special thanks to my 2 regular visitors for reading this! <3

RaRe Clan Website
11/09/11 02:00 AM
For the past couple weeks, I’ve been developing a brand new website for an Xbox 360 gamer clan based here in Australia called “RaRe.”
We were required to develop a website for a real client as part of an IT assignment at school, and my group (Converze, Kerwin and I) decided to make a site for RaRe.
After about 3 weeks in development, we’re finally finished, and we’re pretty proud of the results.
Check the site out!

I Have a Job!
26/08/11 05:00 PM
Well, I am now officially employed! I can’t tell you how happy I am to say that…
I’ve been searching for and applying for so many jobs at every conceivable place for the past few months, and most of the time I either didn’t receive a response, or was declined.
However, I’m pleased to say that I saw an ad for a position at a new McDonalds store (not open yet), and to apply in-person at another local store. I got the callback the same day, and I can’t tell you how happy I was to hear those words “You’ve been accepted for the job”. That made my day!
Anyway, the store opens soon, and I’m looking forward to starting. A reliable income - sweet!
Currently saving for both a car (and all associated expenses), as well as an iPhone 5 when it’s released, hopefully in September or October, perhaps in time for my birthday. Can’t wait!

ShaunR.net V2.0
03/07/11 04:00 PM
When I set this website up originally way back in 2009, I never expected to do much with the site. I found a basic RapidWeaver theme that I liked, and that’s what I’ve stuck with ever since.
Well, I decided a few months ago that it was time for a change. If you’re reading this right now, you’re looking at the brand new design of ShaunR.net!
It’s been months in the making, tweaking and refining process - no thanks to homework and exams - but I’m finally happy with it. It’s based on the latest version of RapidWeaver, uses HTML5, CSS3, and some very cool behind-the-scenes tools.
So, there you have it. ShaunR.net V2.0 is officially released, as of today, Sunday the 3rd of July 2011.
Let me know what you think of the brand new design with your feedback in the newly-enabled comments section, below!

Neglect
21/05/11 12:00 PM
A blog post! First since December 2010! I neglect this thing way too much.
Anyway, I’m in Year 10 this year. Whoever it was that told me Year 10 was just as much of a bludge as Year 9… It sure isn’t! I can probably attribute the lack of blog posts to the homework thing. Only about 10x the amount of homework I got in Year 9!
Well, I suppose this is a big year - I’ll be 16 before long, learning to drive a car… And another year closer to finishing school!
I’m currently in the market for a part-time job after school a few weeknights a week, as I would really like to buy an iPhone 5/4S/whatever it’s called when it’s released. I said to myself around this time last year that I’d get a job and buy an iPhone 4. That never happened.
So, if you’d like me to develop you a website, get in touch - I’d love to talk!
On a totally unrelated topic, the Rapture is supposed to happen at 6pm local time around the world today. Or that’s what Harold Camping reckons. Just like it was meant to happen in 1844, 1914, 1918, 1925, 1942, 1981, 1988, 1989, 1992, 1993, 1994 – where the same Harold Camping predicted the rapture to occur on September 6, 1994, explaining the lack of anything happening as a “math error” – 2000, and now on the 21st May 2011. Oh, and Sir Isaac Newton reckons it won’t happen until 2060.
Somehow, I don’t think today will be our final “normal” day on planet Earth, at least not for a while!
Well, take care, and don’t get eaten by a raptor from the rapture!
