Happy New Year! And attention ALL sig designers!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are ready for the new Year! I know i've been VERY bad at keeping up with creating stuff here and i'm sorry, it's just that life has hit me like a truck lately and i'm only just getting back into the swing of things. I havent even made a sig in weeks *sighs*

Oh well, i'm hoping things have calmed down enough now for me to get some new stuff made and shared with you all.

Anyway...i decided today to start a new Yahoo Group for sig challenges! It's called Sinsational Sigs Challenges and this is how it works. I'll send out a tube or a template or fonts or whatever i feel like and you guys get to make sigs out of what i send. This will occur on Monday every week (Aussie time) and you have until the Friday to email in your sigs. Members will then vote on the winner and whoever wins will receive a new sig from me :D

So...if you'd like to join up, you can do so by clicking this button:




I'd love to see you there! Remember though, it's still VERY new and i'm not 100% set up yet but feel free to join up if you'd like to anyway and we'll be underway with the challenges next week.Ok so thats it for now. Have a WONDERFUL new year and i wish you all the very best for 2009!!!

News...and new templates :)

Well...i've been offline for AGES, i lost my internet again but i'm back now. And omg have things been hectic. So much for my rest time huh? My mom came over to my place the other night and promptly informed me that her boss wants to see my resume because she wants to hire me! She has also given me three months to get my drivers licence, the one thing in the world that scares me more than snakes do....BUT...i made a breakthrough....

With the help of my AMAZING psychologist (LOL how's that....a future psychologist IN therapy!!), i managed to actually sit in the drivers seat and NOT freak out...i even managed to drive a little way without having a total panic attack!!

So today we went out looking at cars. I've decided i want a VW Bug. I've always wanted one since i first saw Herbie the Love Bug when i was a kid....and so that is my goal. I found one i just LOVE, brand new limited edition...black and white leather interior...white exterior, automatic....but at $33,000 it's a tad outta the budget :( Oh well, i'll get it one day! So yeah, in a few months i'll be on my way to total independence and for the first time in 16 years, i'm not afraid. In fact, i'm excited. This is a HUGE thing for me. Phobias are not easy to overcome and i'm bloody proud of myself.

Anyways...so a new job just around the corner, and a drivers licence before my 32nd birthday next year...possibly a new house (or maybe just a remodel of this one) .... a whole new world just opened up to me.

On the downside, my 7 yr old is sick. Again. We took her to the emergency department this morning and she has a virus AND a nasty ear infection, so she's off school for yet another week. But it could have been worse, we were convinced it was rheumatic fever or diabetes...or both...turns out it was neither. Phew.

Anyhoo....enough of my blabbering on lol....here's the new templates! Hope you like them!!

I made it!!!!

Well, it's over. Five long years of stress and strain, deadlines and temper tantrums, bad grades and not so bad grades.....i FINALLY finished my university studies yesterday. God it's SO weird to not have to study, or read something, or write something...but i can now relax, enjoy life, get some rest, clean my damn house LOL and hang out with the family. My life has been SO scheduled and so inflexible for the last 5 yrs that this is just strange...i guess the plan now is to take some time off and let my brain settle down (cos seriously, i thought it was gonna explode at one point there LOL). I suppose i have to start thinking of what i'm gonna do next. No study for a while, that's for sure :D

Sooooo anyway, just thought i'd share my most excellent news.

Hugs to all

OMG it's soo bad, its FUNNY!!!

Ok i think i'm OFFICIALLY losing the plot. Seriously.

On top of all the other shit i've gone through since starting my honours year in March 2007 (i'm doing this part time remember), i have yet ANOTHER nasty trojan and god knows what else on my pc..and why???? Cos i was tired and frustrated and plain pissed off that i can't afford $1500 to spend on SPSS (the program we use to analyse data)...sooooo after wating FOUR hours for the demo version to download, i went to use it this morning and it wouldn't let me since i've already USED the demo version and it expired a few weeks ago...but i did the "well ya never know, it MIGHT work!" thing...Only it didnt. So at 8am this morning after getting maybe 3 hours sleep and without a sip of coffee passing my lips, i go on a hunt for a serial for spss, which i wouldnt usually do but with ten days before i hand in the thesis and my data isn't finished...well ya know LOL...and i found one...or at least i thought i did. What i had in fact found (and stupidly, blindly, ignorantly downloaded onto my precious PC...and into the REGISTRY of said precious pc of all things!!) was a Vundo trojan horse which has basically screwed my entire sytem.

For example: I wanna search for something on google..so i do....i hit the link...and get taken to weird and wonderful sites which i never wanted to go to. So i now have to copy and paste the desired link into my address bar which i have discovered is a slow and painful experience, especially when stress levels are now within homicidal range...

The popups which have made themselves at home on my usually beautifully clean, spyware free, adware free gorgeous machine are freaking KILLING me and i swear to god if spybot pops up one more time i'm going to pull out what is left of my hair.

So let's see....Since march 2007...

~ All four kids have been sick at least 5 times EACH..including a minor case of whooping cough

~ I almost got divorced (LONG ass story i wont go into right now)

~ I've had no less than 4 severe asthma attacks and one bout of seriously bad bronchitis that saw me in bed with a 40 degree C temperature for a week...

~ I've lost my phone and internet access at least twice because the bastards just wont stop CHARGING me for it. Pfft.

~ I've lost my cable tv once but went without it for weeks while they "fixed" it...and now have a dish on my roof that loses its signal as soon as it rains...and its the WET season

~ I got a virus on the pc that took no less than a week to fix

~ I've been bullied and harrassed for 6 months by a govt dept who know SHIT

~ My house has been inspected four times...

~ I've repainted the house once

~ I've redeveloped my thesis six times

~ I've written no less than four versions of my thesis ethics application cos apparently i can't spell...and didn't spell check...well i would have if stupid ass open office had a spell check that WORKS

~ I've entered 35,000 pieces of data no less than ten times each...thats 350,000 pieces of data. And i wonder why my hands hurt. Hmmm.

~ I have had a snake in my undie drawer

~ I've looked after hubby while he hobbled about on crutches for a week..this of course happened the day i had the snake in my undie drawer and he was too out of his head on pain meds to help me LOL

~ I've had painters in the house who want to totally disrupt my life to "fix" the ceiling rather than just moving house and getting it over with..painters who btw now won't do it because i had the nerve to have a thesis supervision meeting the day they were supposed to come out and do it...so i've pissed them off and theyre gonna reschedule "later"...and the best part...my supervisor was in ADELAIDE when i went in for my meeting with her...apparently my email from her got lost somewhere...so i could have had the ceiling fixed instead

~ I'm surviving on 4 hours sleep a night, sometimes less, and i can somehow still remember where the coffee is and what my name is. But that's about it.

~ I spend 50 bucks on a spyware removal tool which promises me it's gonna fix my spyware infestation...and it removed all but the vundo one...so now waiting to hear back from them (ok so they were VERY fast in replying to my desperate pleas for help...they better be for my $50 LOL)

Ya know i'm sitting here grinning as i'm writing this because it's just so FUCKING ironic that in my final and most important year...all this happens to me.

I'm SO desperate for this to be over. Believe me, the alcohol will be flowing, but dont be surprised if you don't see me for a week. I'm sleeping.

LMAO

Hiya guys,

Just a quick heads up...I got kinda tired of 4shared, i've been having trouble uploading to it lately and it's just plain annoying the hell outta me LOL...anyhoo as i was on my travels around blogger i discovered another site, www.box.net which seems a LOT more user friendly so i'm going to start uploading there instead. Downloads are quick and easy, but so far i havent found a place for you to leave comments so just leave them on my blog for now. I'm leaving the old stuff on 4shared simply because i dont have time to swich it all over right now but i will do it sooner or later.

Hope this finds you all well

Hugs
