This week was the first day of the rest of my life. On Tuesday I had my first lecture of my final semester at Lincoln university. Getting back into the University timetable from the personal timetable I had been keeping myself to (wakeup somewhere around dinner) is motivating me to get myself into a working setup.

On Wednesday I went to some mythical place known as a library. It was a strange experience I must say... In this magical place are items that are apparently known as books made out of something called paper. I was intrigued by this substance known as paper and also the devices created by it known as books so I used the computer to find some books that may help me with my dissertation. A while later I was in possession of some of the books i required and on my way home.

These book things are a lot heavier than PDF's on a memory stick.

This week has also bought some positives to light with my degree. Two of the units will allow me and Matt to start out building a web application we have been planning to pin every pub/club/bar in the UK and eventually the world via the wonders of user generated content. The details are currently confidential though.

On the down side this week has shown me how much work I actually have to do over the next few months with the Golddigga store to finish building, a dissertation to write, 2 content management systems to implement into sites for clients and another 2 web builds. Oh and another 2 assignments to do one including the web application I mentioned.

Looks like these next few months are going to put my MP3 collection to it's limits.
