I’ve now received conditional offers from all five of my university choices. Nice little ego boost.
Context: since changing phones, Simon hasn't had my phone number. He had no idea who I was.

This is Tim. I’ve known him from about the age of eleven but I only really befriended him when I was fourteen, which in writing doesn’t seem that long; it feels like I’ve known him for much longer.
I probably owe a lot of my passion for tech to Tim, who is far more advanced and far more enthusiastic than I am. I’ve never fallen out with him, probably due to him being ridiculously good-natured.
This summer, I’m going to SF with Tim. I’m extremely excited, but also surprised that it’s taken us this long.
Glued one of the CD Drive port covers from my PC case to my bedside table to make this charging station. Managed to glue my hand to the table in the process.
I have a pot in my cupboard in which I put all my spare change. This has been collecting since November, and came to £17 (excluding the copper coins). Fantastic.
My dad just came into my room and questioned me about the SOPA post I put up a week ago. Hi dad.
konnai.re is live!
One domain purchase and redesign later, I’m finally happy with how my site looks. I’ll be keeping konnaire.co.uk, but will probably change this account to blog.konnai.re once I can be bothered to create sub-domains, and redirect blog.konnaire.co.uk to the same place.
Kudos to Tim for the domain purchase and for coding the vast majority of the redesign!

I'm Konnaire Scannell. I make things and photo things and play things. Sometimes, I like to pretend I'm a real designer and post my work here.
