  • A Bit of Irish History

    That’s 1994 if you can consider that History.

    During the Eurovision in 1994, we were treated to a beauty!

  • Padraig Fahy – The IT Technician

    Today, I attended a interview at a National School here in Monaghan to become a Intern IT Technician.

    The interview went better than expected. I was nervous when I went in, but they quickly dissipated. We discussed about the infrastructure in the school, the computers, network, servers and what-have-you. It was amazing to hear that I could possibly be starting on the 7th January 2013. (when the students return to school).

    After about 18 months of no work or education, I can safely say that I am ready to start working in the “real world” rather than spending time doing work experience for about 3 weeks without doing much (Seriously, I was making coffee one time even though I wasn’t allowed to do that, but oh well).

    And hopefully, after the 6 months has passed, I hope that I will either A) continue to work for them or B) Move up in the ladder and secure a non-intern, permanent job that will see me coming off the dole and actually earning money the way it’s suppose to.

    Things are looking up for me, and 2013 is shaping up to be a great start to my working life.

    And I would like to say a big “Thank You” to my cousin (Is that what he is?1), David McFadden for informing me about this internship. I never thought about it at first, but after discussing it with him, I said “F*** it, I’ll apply anyway!”.

  • Simple Lunch: BES-Stirfry

    BES = Bacon Egg and Sausage

    I tried this out today, I am no way a good cook, but I do try. Here is something that I did today! Apologies for no photo, I couldn’t get the chance to take a pic, but hopefully you can imagine it 😛

  • Multiple Services, 1 Login, All Online and FREE!

    You might have that title and asked, “What has multiple services, only requires 1 login and it’s online and free?”.

    About 10 years ago, this would have been unheard of. Free services…on the internet!

    Well, you may know a company known as “Google” that originally started as just a search engine, but you might not have thought that Google did more. If you already have a Gmail account or even a YouTube account, you already have a “Google Account”.
