Well it’s been quite awhile since my last proper update. So here’s the lowdown on what’s happening with me:

• Power : is back up. The PrintShop is running regularly again and I have gone back to using my famously buggy desktop. This means you should all start seeing me at your blogs again, since I have my RSS reader over there.
• School : started. I am a good ways into my math and resonably into Chemistry and English. Physics and Social Studies I have barely started yet, because my books aren’t here. They are supposed to be coming mid-September. Please pray for their arrival.
• Palmview : running, me teaching. They have five students this year: my sister, Janelle Hoyt, Rebecca Symons (3 in grade 8), Pascal Cross (1 in grade 6), and Joseph Symons (forgive me for not remembering his grade). I am teaching a computer class (Introduction to Microsoft Office) every Friday. Please pray that I teach effectively and the kids learn
• Projects : Amateur Writerz, Open Portal, and mNEWS. As always I continue on as managing editor / webdesigner for Amateur Writerz. I have also recently started an opensource web portal project. Detail can be found on the project wiki or at my tech blog. On top of this I am running a service that I have dubbed mNEWS in which I use some of my programming skills and the fact that I have webhosting space to help missionaries send out their newsletters, especially needed as one of the missions here in Chad that used to offer a similar service to their missionaries has cancelled it.

We had a ‘photo-shoot’ here yesterday and I have uploaded some of the better shots to my flickr. Comment there or here… it’ll have to be here if you don’t have a flickr account (unfortunately ).

Well I’m back… mostly. Palmview started up again, so they’re running the generator in the mornings, just not as much as normal yet. I’ve got a lot of stuff I want to do to AWriterz when I’m off school, which I’ve also started already. Had a huge rainstorm today that knocked out our sat system for a good while, but it’s dying down now. I know we really need the rain… but I wanna be online! Not much else happening around here… school, awriterz development, me being mostly back… so I’ll talk to those of you I see online!

Image left – Welcome in Chinese… well, I can’t read Chinese, so I’m trustig Ian that’s what it says… I got it from him awhile back to add chinese to the many languages I have welcome in on my home page. I haven’t got around to it yet… and I just found the picture again and went ‘oh yeah!’.

Image right – NSAers will recognise it from my rez. It’s a piece of ‘artwork’ i created eons ago by drastically distorting an already bad picture of myself. Why I still have it is beyond me… maybe I thought it was worth keeping? Who knows, I’ll keep it until I decide ;P
Image left again – more of my lovely boredom in an image editor ;P again, rather old, few people have even seen this image ;P

Not much is happening today… my dad is doing a lot of stuff to prepare for the container that’s coming in October, which I wait for in anticipation cause it has a new computer for me in it 😀

I’m also debating someone over on my technical blog on an old post, partly about the state of the universe and partly about the existance of God.
