My sister is the kind of person whom loves going to wellnesscentres. Usually she does this stuff with one of her friends, but since one of her fave places had a nice discount for a 2,5 hour Skinfish Spa thingy and mothers day was coming up soon, she suggested we should do have a mother/daughters day. Now I have always been one wanting to try some sort of Spa thing, but it tends to be too expensive...so yay for discounts! So today at 13.00, there will be teeny tiny fish omnomnonomsing my hands and feet, while enjoying a nice cappuccino with apple pie and a smoothie. And some sort of massage chairs/sofa thingies apparantly.
Also finally decided what school I'll be having my 4 year ICT Media Design course. Already signed up and got most of the paperwork done. It's quite amusing to see how the whole signup stuff went from snailmailing stuff to the uni to just uploading everything online 10 years later. All that is left is an actual meeting, where they try to find out if the course is right one for you and some other stuff like being motivated, which is also something new, but not too surprising with the changes the government made concerning the high fail rate of uni/college students.
I am actually quite excited to go back to college, doing something completely new. Life hasn't been too interesting lately, with my current job cutting away my working hours in favor of younger employees, not to mention lowering my salary. It's just not worth it. The downside is that I will have to pay for college myself now, no government moneys to compensate. I will also a need a laptop. Not just any laptop, but one that will last some years, high performance...and those are expensive. But it will be so worth it. My 6 year old pc just can't handle the graphic stuff anymore. Tera loves to randomly crash on me, whenever I do 25man raids or a world boss in WoW I need to put various graphic sliders to low, just to make it somewhat playable...and even then some bosses are a slideshow for me. Thankfully my guild does 10man raids, which are still doable, aside from the game occassionally freezing on me randomly. I won't fully retire my pc (I love my Logitech MX518 mouse and G15 keyboard way too much), as it's still working fine for older games and Photoshop and watching anime.
Oh dear, look at the time. I better get ready for the fishies!
