about me

introduction

Howdy!

My name is Frase and this is my website, the coolest place on the intarweb! Not really... it's nowhere near as cool as this website, but that's one high standard to live up to - I still think my site is pretty cool. So here I mostly just write stuff about what I've been doing, shamelessly plug things I dig, and occasionally rant or complain about things that I anti-dig (actually, that's probably more often than not).

a bit about me

I live about an hour north of Brisbane (Australia, not California) in the quiet little town of Burpengary, which is neither quiet not little. I work at the local Super Cheap Auto, which is a pretty good place to work.

I'm studing Computer Systems Engineering at UQ, which I really enjoy but it's a lot of work. At time of writing, it's three years down and two to go. I dread the nine-to-fiver.

Hmmm... what else is there to say? I spend a lot of my time in front of the computer ('the computer' being a collective term for my many computers), doing assorted things - the most mentionable of which is working on Blogurk. I also play Counter-Strike... a lot. Would it surprise you to learn that I'm single? Though so...

I do have a life outside of computers of course. I'm a leader at Rivers Youth, a local youth ministry. I also eat things and go outside from time to time. And I fully dig music. Especially the many and varied forms of dance music, but plenty of other stuff as well. My favourite band (by a very, very large margin) is 311. Also ranking highly on my list of arists to be listened to are The Cat Empire, Soma Rasa and everyone's favourite Nordic DJ, Darude.
