really busy day
been sick with this awesome virus for the last few days, courtesy of last week's plonking in rain (it was actually a lot colder here all week than melbourne). first day back and i'm dizzy and i have packed outpatient clinics all day, oh joy. in the morning team intake meeting and all of a sudden i have two crisis patients to assess in triage, one whom the folks in blue have brought in... i started my first clinic review an hour late due to the unscheduled crises, and then spent all day catching up, and sniffling.
at least it looked like a bright and sunny day.
im looking forward to going back to st vincents. the mental health system is at breaking point in WA, and there are almost no community outreach services to help support people in their home environments. at least its sunny though.

fish and chips err i mean.. oilcomputer
what do fish and chips have in common with a computer? well a lot more than you think system cooling taken to greasetream measures
a cold day...
that cat site is awesome, somewhere on whirlpool i once came across that crazy cat-as-extension-of-my-shelf-and-keeper-of-crap concept, but it's nice to remember it again. but wouldn't big (albeit sedated) dogs be more useful?
today was a shocking day weatherwise. i am taking transperth (www.transperth.com.au) while my car warbles it way across the nullabor. walking from fremantle city centre to the hospital was ok, thank you umbrella... until the last 20 metres from my building when the combined evilness of 'wind' and 'perth massive friggin rain' (remember, perth gets all of melbourne's annual rainfall in winter!) conspired together... i looked like i fell in a pool and it took a few hours to dry up properly. i think i have a chest infection now, lots of coughing, i feel like there is fluid in my lungs. i am tempted to ask for a cxr, but i think i'll ask one of my colleagues to auscultate (listen to) my lungs tomorrow...
stupid stupid rain

yeah and on an asian dint
of course im gonna give you the asian take, coz thats what i am,
on the asian dint there's this site ethnotechno that basically takes you through the last 10 years of what was "asian undergound' in the uk and ended up the 'asian massive' in the us...
god i miss the stuff that came out of Outcaste (UK) and Shakti (RIP). Today's label is six degrees. also, on the more mainstream tip, there's talvin singh and nitin sawhney, both mercury award winners.
links:
http://outcaste.com
http://tjrehmi.com
http://www.dholfoundation.com
http://www.sixdegreesrecords.com
http://www.ethnotechno.com
http://www.thieverycorporation.com
the slow but gradual increase in exposure in uk bhangra slowly killed off much of uk asian fusion (another name for it)... but it lives on. theivery corporation also have a lotta asian fusion elements in their music...
lastly this website purely for its funkyness - it's an oldish site now, but i loves it :)
http://www.sharaabmusic.com
edit - how do i make these links clickable? i tried <> but that made them goddamn invisible...

waky waky electronic music eh
Ishkur's Guide to electronic music a rather good attempt at classifying all those genres and sub-genres (theres hundreds of them there) of electronic music with often hillarious descriptions and good samples of music of each.

qualifying myself
i suppose i should qualify my existance by actually posting here occasionally. im sure drej will be pretty happy about this. or maybe not?? my own blog (bahahah) didn't do quite so well at apnablog.blogspot.com so I've decided to come here and ruin things. I guess more humans posting semifrequently make this a better and more huggy blog. bleh.
I decided to invest in flickr, coz I wasn't being allowed to put in more than 8 photos a month, and that's pretty stupid. There's a link up on the side to my pic page. Flickr is actually pretty cool, but i guess i caught the wave preeeety late.
Finished up at St Vincent's and off to Perth on friday for 6 months. Well, I like to think of it as '20 weeks'. Hmm. Well, at least the weather is nice, the air fresh and the commute a lot less.
I think this is enough for now.

On the subject of games.
Tim Schafer, who created Day of the Tentacle, Grim Fandango and some other classics has a relatively new game out called Psychonauts.
It's as good as anything else he's designed. Highly recommended!

To me Day Of The Tentacle (DOTT) was the best game ever made. It represents the pinnacle of adventure gaming back in the genre's heyday. Chase it up, it is definetly a worthwile game and is something that i replay even now.If you do own the game, try ScummVM. It allows you to play the lucasarts and other classics on todays machines. There are some nice graphics options that teaches an old game new tricks like looking a hellova lot better.
Have phun.

things things and stuff
well yea, you got a point james, but you know, stuff.
buzybuzy with work lately which has killed my cravings to be on a pc. i think 15hrs is enuf in a day... but then again it hasnt completely stopped me.. you see a *magical* word called anime ;)
anime series that has kept me sane these past few weeks:
Elfen Lied
Genshiken
Great Teacher Onizuka
Paranoia Agent
Planetes
Shingetsutan Tsukihime
Tenjou Tenge
Trinity Blood
better than watching tv.. oh and i finally finished GTA:San Andreas. pretty good game, the only downfall i think was that they could of incorporated more of the sidequests into the main plot. and actually tested the game completely using the keyboard and mouse (driving school is impossible to complete -- 3 key lockout... and flying is a *ARRG* disable mouse flying)
