A Flat, Flat World

Went to the SMH Career Expo today with my brother and dad. It started off alright, but we forgot to get off at Town Hall and instead got off at Wynnard. Then we got lost, walking to the Rocks and wandering around before we found our way back down to Darling Harbour and into the Exhibition Center. It wasn't really anything good. The expo had a whole bunch of companies advertising what a career with them would be like. There was a lot on business and computing, but I couldn't find anything health or science related. There was some breakdance comp going on in there as well. Some of the dancers were cool, others were kinda crap.

Of course, the armed forces were there, spreading their propoganda about joining the army, navy or air force. But the weird thing is that there was some Asian guy in Army uniform there. Apparently he joined the army and worked into technical division, wires, computers and communications and stuff. Still it was weird. Not that Asian-Australians aren't patriotic, its just that we don't want to be on the frontline in some war in Whateverastan.

My mother bought me a new phone as an early birthday present. Its a Nokia 6101, and I'm still reading the booklet on what it can do. It kinda sucks in the memory department, around 3 megs, and so I have to do some cleaning, getting rid of themes, tone and other pictures. I guess its a cool phone. By the way, if anyone has a CA-42 adaptor cable, give me a shout. I'd like to borrow it and see if I can add some personal tones and wallpaper.
