Urgent Decision!

The SL55 is just a smaller version of the S55 which is my current phone, and it's pretty great. I'd get one for myself except that I'd end up breaking the slidey mechanism that separates the keypad from the rest of the phone and then I'd have a useless lump of plastic. But I break stuff a lot, you should definitely get one.

how's that?

i do enjoy setting trends...

AND it is way too sensitive to wind - people can never hear me talk if there is even a slight breeze! Sorry, I've really got my hate-on for the S55 right now!! I've used Nokia and Samsung before, and had a friends Sony Ericsson briefly, and have preferred all those. But maybe I'm just crazy.

If you are used to the Nokia text logic, switching to the Siemens will take some getting used to. Motorolla is pretty much the same as the Nokia (not sure, but think this is the case?)

Note: tri-band doesn't mean shit, because Americans use their mobiles for banging off flints to make fires.

i'm using this at the moment, but it was broekn and battered and full of all sorts of faults when it was given to me free (over a year ago)

x-post again..

so if all these problems are going to occur in a brand new faultless siemens sl55,
i think i'll choose the moto.

"that's a good choice sir, it will arrive tomorrow"
"pardon? what will?"
"your phone"
"oh...!"

props to t-mobile!

This one is three full watts!

but with more passion than the other posts combined!

1. stay here until i've finished (that'll mean not leaving university, getting no sleep, acting strange)?

OR

2. go home, sleep for 6 or 7 hours, come back refreshed (though considerably more panicked) and try and finish the piece and get the music done in one day?

I do my best work under extreme, delirious pressure but sometimes I don't.

what would RJG, do, in my situation?

if you are able to recharge (5+ hrs sleep) and prepare for an allnight, in which you think you can finish things up, enough--I think it is the best option.

new problem: do i pay the equiv of $150 (heavy reduced mind you!) for a stop-motion animation course that i suspect i won't learn all that much from just because i think it'll force me to work (and to work in a different medium) and because everyone involved thinks i've signed up already and it'll be awkward at this point to de-register or do i just try and learn how this self-motivation thing works over the next month? (least interesting question ever.)

could you spend the money in a different way that might encourage you to do some work?

I have two designs (1+3 credits), two essays (1 credit) and one environmental assessment (1/2 a credit) to do, for noon friday.

the designs are sweet and drawn but need photoshopping and I still have some 3D work and models to do.

and I have yet to start the two essays and the assessment, haha.

three days, still.

this is the most productive I've been, in a long time.

doesn't help you, though, m.

RJG needs a show or a column in a magazine.

i might well learn something from the course, and i don't know how to spend the money in any other work encouraging way really, i'm just afraid that a whole lot of the dry technical important stuff is aimed at a newbie level.

THE, RJG, SHOW

ASK, RJG

the bad thing about me is, although I have done quite a lot of work, in my life, I can't really remember any of it.

by friday, I know I will want and think I deserve a long sleep and relaxetc. but I might have time to do more 3D and modelling, for my critiques, on monday (I have to pin up the main drawings but I think I will get away with adding models, etc.), and I am going to see dean friedman, on sunday night, whoops!!
