Anyway, I also saw my supervisor today so she can update on how well I’m doing overall. Turns out if I can’t be arsed to do any work this semester and get 0% in everything I’d end up with 57% (not bad for a slacker). However, if I want to get a 1st I have to get (wait for this, its fantastic)… I have to get a mere 57% in the rest of modules!! How great is that!! Looks like I’ll be completing another of my 25 challenges this year! [...] [...] Oh yeah!!! 90% baby!!! Put that on your hot cross bun and eat it!

At the end of the meal, instead of recieving the bill and plate full of mint imperials (probably plucked out from peoples coat pockets), we recieved the bill and…  a red envelope. “Exciting!”  I hear you say. Well, no, but what was inside the envelope is what freaked me out a little (tho the significance of the contents only occured to me a few hours later whilst on the phone). Inside this red envelope was… a ticket! A National Lottery Ticket!! For this wednesday’s draw!!! You’re probably think, “Lucky you! But what’s with the destiny/fate stuff?”. Well, one of my 25 challenges for this year is to win on the lottery without buying a ticket! I have to admit when I came up with that particular challenge I was thinking I’d have to bribe people to buy me tickets, but I never expected to actually get a ticket like this! I’m so excited and slightly freaked out by this coincidence. I know the picture is a bit crap, but the numbers are 4, 14, 20, 38, 39, 45. Even if we win a tenner I’d be over the moon and consider that challenge done! I’ll keep you posted on wednesday! [...] [...] Sorry, I digress.

I feel pretty pleased that I’ve actually done two of them now! It doesn’t feel like some pointless wishlist that I came up with in a moment of boredom, but it has become meaningful list of life-fulling challenges (yeah, whatever!). [...] [...] Well, I’ve just got back from London having completed another of my challenges with the aid of Amy (cheers chuck!!). I feel pretty pleased that I’ve actually done two of them now!

This is the correct version!Ok, here it is! The first mix of 2006 done mainly so I can cross off one of my challenges for this year. I’m really chuffed with this mix. It’s a mixture of hip hop, jazz, drum & bass, electro. It’s kinda scruff like i suppose. I recommend it for revising too (well i’ve been revising to it, it’s a nice kinda backgroundy mix). I tried to do a few special bits in it (overlapping songs, eg. scruff & DJ Vadim, dropping samples in, destiny’s child over shadow). I’m pretty sure none of the tracks class as cheese so i would say that means I can cross challenge number18 off my list, unless anyone beg’s to differ? Listen here (mp3, 40Mb) [...] [...] Challenge Complete UPDATE: I uploaded the wrong version initially, so if it sounds dodgy, thats why. This is the correct version!Ok, here it is!
