One of the shots by Vyanne that I like. This was down the Gibson Steps along the Great Ocean Road near the Twelve Apostles and I like the look of the waves, the colour and just the basic contours of the rocks against the sky.

Some under the hood changes. I’ve finally moved this blog to a new hosting service here in Australia. The entire blog feels snappier and the cPanel installation allows me to do a one click install of WordPress (no need to manually upload the files via FTP), after which I just manually setup a new database and imported all the entries from my previous website. The process was pretty quick and easy, but I got a little confused when I had to redirect the domain to point at the correct nameservers. There seemed to be no transition or breakdowns (I had copied and setup everything I could think of prior to redirecting the web address) so I thought that the domain was still pointing at the old website but it had already changed over. It only took me 24 hours to realise it after I went digging around in the install and found certain files missing that I was sure I had done it correctly.

Upgrades are easier now as they are one click solutions, and I don’t have to fiddle with .htaccess files or keying in passwords to give access to the install to upgrade itself. A great plus for me.

Will try and do a simple site redesign before the middle of this month, when I have to start studying for my CPA. The notes arrived last Friday and they have a noted polish to them compared to the CFA notes. It’s a giant folder full of notes, divided into modules, so I’ll see how it goes with studying.

Not much else going on this month other than Chinese New Year coming up. Heh, have some vague plans on what to do then but otherwise, there shouldn’t be too many variations to the daily grind. Need to spend a little more time running, as I’ve been busy doing everything else. I haven’t slept odd hours of late and tried to do so at the end of last Thursday. I’m probably getting old, but my body doesn’t adjust too well to sleeping at strange hours as I will get tired in the afternoons, take a nap, and have insomnia the night after. Heh, just trying to reset my sleeping patterns but I generally have less issues with sleep so it should be ok soon.

Nothing much else registers in my brain now (due to lack of sleep) but eager to be getting cracking with doing stuff.
