Commission

9 January 2007 by kristarella

I feel terrible for people that are working for commission. If you do and you like it that’s fine, it’s just that I get all these calls from overseas that are “Sydney based companies” offering me a mobile phone for free with $30 credit, a free DVD player, a cheaper phone plan. I don’t know […]

I was missing the id3v2mux bit in my settings. I still can’t add the year to the data though. Update: EasyTAG doesn’t recognise the Sound Juicer encoded tags so if […]

Linky

6 January 2007 by kristarella

I thought I might share some links with you that I’ve found or had shared with me that I really like. Not because I’m bored or lacking for things to say but because I think they’re worth sharing. Actually, I won’t lie, I was asked to share this link. Jeremy of Haunted House Dressing is […]

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
I didn’t place in my individual events, but had a very fun final round of kumite (sparring).
