Now that the exam results have arrived (as of 16th August actually) I found out with great pleasure that I got 4 A’s at A-level (Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry) and will be attending Pembroke College Cambridge from October 2008 to read Engineering. Pretty good chat eh?

Eurotrip…
I’d finally thought I should mention something about what is going on and all that so here it is…
I had an awesome time in Europe with my friends for 18 days, which really was pretty awesome. We started in Edinburgh, getting a coach (the megabus to be specific) to Newcastle for the single reason that flights to Paris from Newcastle were cheaper. We celebrated the start of our journey with a bottle of Piper Heidsieck by the Tyne! …
Finally getting round to it!
As the holidays have now been upon me for almost 3 weeks now, I have finally got round to getting my iMac repaired. It would refuse to start up when there was a stick of RAM present in one of the slots, it was fine with the other slot filled up, but would not even make the startup chime with the first one. Thus I concluded that it was probably a logic board problem and that the logic board needed replacing. Oh and this also happened almost 6 months ago. The only reason I continued using it was that I found a temporary solution with only 512Mb of RAM. Fairly slow, but really not that bad once you get used to it; I’m now using a Celeron 2.67Ghz and 1.25Gb of RAM on my Hackintosh and in some respects it feels faster, which obviously shouldn’t be happening…
Web Design…
I hope by now you’ve realised the new drastic change to the main page of mohoyt.com and the technicolour excellence it now possesses, its even on fire!!! I have been meaning to change it for a while, ever since I temporarily adopted Wolfgang Bartelme’s ‘dark’ theme for the blog… I completely adore that theme, but I can’t exactly use someone elses theme for ever can I?
Live Earth
While I was away at T in the Park watching various artists, and having a brilliant time, there was Live Earth on in all continents. This also had some amazing artists, including Wolfmother, John Mayer, The Red Hot Chili Peppers (they only played one song though), Jack Johnson and many others. The great thing about this is that you are able to watch the concert online whenever and where-ever you want. This is really quite brilliant, as in my case I was away in the middle of a field, thus unable to watch it live on TV, so I watched all of the music that I thought looked good last night at my own freedom…
RIP – Fopp
I have previously mentioned here that Fopp is an absolutely briallint chain of stores. Unfortunately, it has now demised. At least I was in one of the stores an hour before it finally closed. This really is sad 🙁 I shall now have to boycott HMV and Virgin even more as they, obviously much worse, …
Finished!
I have finally finished at school… for good! Last week I had my last week, and yesterday there was the exhibition, pretty much a prizegiving. Pretty odd to finally finish, but to be honest it hasn’t really sunk in all that much that I’ll never see half these people again! Oh well… Was out partaying …
