My title is "Consultant", which means the company can get me to do anything, but most of the time I work on projects developing IT systems for corporate clients. I'm working in Canberra for a few months, I've been put in a nice serviced apartment, and I fly back to Sydney on weekends, though I went to Melbourne once for Two Tribes. I'm still hanging for an overseas trip... a friend at work is going off to New Zealand pretty soon. I wouldn't mind a trip to Japan or UK. I've started working with Peoplesoft systems over the last half year and that may mean more opportunities for travel.

The salary isn't really great.

Hey, you're not that guy I met at Mombasa a bit over a month ago (can't remember when though, maybe Peewee Ferris on 13/02/03), also said he was working at IBM and was from Sydney. If so, it really just strengthens the whole Canberra effect thing. Everyone knows everyone from somewhere here. Very freaky coincedence.

green = go for me, i'm single
purple = sexually frustrated
orange/yellow = i'm seeing somebody, but i'm up for it if you are
blue = i'm pure and innocent
black = i'm evil
seriously they're all gagging for it and functions like that. It's a fact.

join the ranks.

money's over rated anyway, $9 gets 30 packs of Mi goreng which lasts at least half a month (+ breakfast cereal) and can easily be afforded by signing up for all those phsycology experiments people need to get done.

ow... and the 5 bucks for the sugar to make me moonshine.

hehe, i guess that's a thumbs up for mi goreng in the health department eh. nothin more credible then from an up n comin doc, other then, well, a real doc.

full time i'm doin my postgrad, masters in IT.
part time i'm an unorthadox kinda cupid. i handle 1900 numbers n hook ppl up. no shit. i handle the voicemail boxes for all those weird ass classified ads in local and some main newspapers i.e. age, sydney morning herald all over the country. ring the helpline on certain days n u'll find me. who knows, i might be able to find u a lonely housewife or a bi-chick wishin to fulfil her fantasies.
