Legal forms. Blah. I can't wait until I can afford my own accountant. All the forms. All of them.

Good news.
I managed not to crash powerplant this week.
Mainly because I wasn't operator today. :p

I wouldn't trust either of my parents with these forms. Right, best go post this off. Later, TET.

Perhaps later, given that simulated power plant was biopower plant instead of nuclear power plant.
And I think nuclear power plant would be above my paygrade anyway. :p

The library only has a single disk of hers, and I adhere too strictly to my own budget to allow for purchases that don't involve me paying my bills or eating food.

I'd be okay with the maiming of the cup and memory stick if you hadn't injured humans.

Believe it or not, but there's a place on the internet where you can listen to Björk and many more artists without having to invest in an impressive music collection. It is called YouTube.

Huh. I was wrong. Even Bachelor of Engineering is sufficient for nuclear power plant operator. I remember reading it requirement would be Master of Science (Tech) or Master of Engineering. *shrugs*

Perhaps next year.
Or this summer.
Depending on if and where I get summer internship.
