Today I started back at uni after what seems like forever, it's pretty weird how much has changed over the break. This semester I'll be doing some more C, some Java and apparently some Unix Scripting. So they will hopefully keep me occupied.
I found out today that a friend of mine is doing a subject in Ye Olde English. How awesome is that?
It was a bit dissapointing though cos the first thing she told me about it is that you shouldn't use "Ye" for stuff, it should just be "The". Something to do with some old letters that don't exist any more, I guess they look like a "Y" but translate better into "Th" or somesuch (apparently it requires a whiteboard to be explained fully)...
At the moment I'm kinda tired, but I needed some way to complain about my iPod. It's dead you see.
It didn't seem to be updating through iTunes, so i just disconnected it using the safely disconnect hardware device thing in windows.... But it still thinks it's connected, and also thinks it's on hold - so there's no way to reset it. I guess I have to now wait until the batteries die, and failing that I'll have to take it back to the shop. It'll still be under warranty and whatever, but its a hell of an inconvenience...
It seems like my site has been revolving around apple products lately (and how much they dislike me). I don't mean to turn it all Apple-centric, it's just that when I'm busy I don't do much cool stuff... Hopefully this shall change soon when I get back into the swing of things. I should also cull my RSS intake, but it's hard to decide what to get rid of. Does anyone else feel obligated to read or at least skim over every single item that appears in their RSS reader? It shouldn't be this way...
Update: The battery died as I slept, and now it seems to be back to normal :)

I'm sorry to hear about your IPod not working :( Bummer. I know you were really enjoying it.
I've got an RSS feed and because of that exact concern haven't put too many feeds on. If I was you, I'd rank them in importance. Like which ones do you really want to read then move on down. Just an idea that popped in. Good luck on the programming and happy sleeping in when you can :)
Yeah that's a good idea (the importance thing). I do that, but the problem is that if I don't read a feed one day, it'll just have double the items the next day.
