Forgetting Enron

Hayley — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 22:19:50 +0000

I was talking with the guys at work about some auditing stuff on Monday - its time for the BIS external audit - and one of the guys was trying to remember which of the Big 4 companies would be auditing us. “I’m sure its Sarbanes Oxley” he said. Being the SOx nerd I am, [...]

No Snow

Hayley — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 06:36:36 +0000

Its been so so cold in Bristol lately, so when I woke up this morning, as usual I checked my Twitter, checked my emails and then checked the weather widget thing on my iPhone. I was far far too excited to see this: Look at that! A pretty little dusting of snow for today (also, a [...]

Four Chords

Hayley — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 14:56:00 +0000

This totally only got my attention because Journey - “Don’t Stop Believing” is the first song. Axis of Awesome are an Australian group who say that four chords - A , E , B, C# - make up many songs. How many do you recognise, and can you think of other songs that use those chords?

2008 - A Review

Hayley — Thu, 01 Jan 2009 15:25:57 +0000

I try to do this every year (here’s last years version), because it reminds me of the fun and stuff I’ve done over the year when I read back over my LJ and Twitter. I’ve put the main parts under the cut, because it might not be so fun for you guys to read if [...]

So That Was Festive

Hayley — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 22:41:42 +0000

New Years. A time for getting together with some of your closest friends, and ending up in random places like a scout hut, hanging out of a window waving sparklers and Rowton. Except this year I’m all alone in Bristol, propped up on my bed and listening to Radio 1 as I drink raspberry Absolut [...]

New Years Resolutions

Hayley — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 12:15:00 +0000

Yes, its that time of year again, when we all promise to do something and then 10 days later we forget about it. Last year, I don’t remember making many resolutions, but the main two I made (and did!) was “Move to Bristol” and “Quit My Job” (Really, I couldn’t have done the former without doing [...]

What I Learned in Accounting Class

Hayley — Sun, 07 Dec 2008 19:27:51 +0000

As someone who suffered through three years worth of Accounting classes (though thankfully not as many as my friends who took plain old A&F), this graph at GraphJam felt just a little too familiar Pointless fact: once upon a time I wanted to be an accountant. Mainly because they’re so damn sexy. Yeah, you know it. [...]

Dear Santa…

Life in BIS

Hayley — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 17:16:04 +0000

Today my boss and I cleared out our storage cupboard. We were quite ruthless, and now I have 27 laptops to throw away (including a pretty enormous one made of grey plastic and has a 1.4gb hard drive. Its about three times the size and weight of my 3 year old iBook) This is what happens [...]

Whats In My Bag - 271108

Hayley — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 13:48:50 +0000

I really like the “Whats In Your Bag” groups on Flickr. Maybe its because I’m nosy, but its pretty facinating to see what people consider to be essential enough to carry around with them. Anyway, above is whats in my bag at the moment. You can see the tagged pictures (if you’re *that* nosy) on my [...]

Review: Reefer Madness

Hayley — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 18:17:17 +0000

One of my favourite musicals is Reefer Madness. Its a film that not many people in the UK have heard of, since it was only shown on the Showtime channel in America, but it’s so entertaining. Back in 1936, a public service film was produced called “Reefer Madness”/”Tell Your Children”. It scared parents by telling them [...]

My Current Playlist

Hayley — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 07:59:24 +0000

I love music. I can’t even pop to the Tescos just down the road without grabbing my iPhone and picking one of my favourite tracks. Anyway, beneath the jump are the 50 tracks I can’t stop listening to at the moment. I know theres some pretty odd choices in there, but its very representative of my [...]

Polaroid, Poladroid

Hayley — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 22:57:11 +0000

As you probably have realised by now, I love love love Polaroids. I love the excitement of not knowing how the picture looks when you take it, I love that its never the same sort of colours and effects on the pictures, and I even love using a proper old school film camera. What I’m not [...]

Oh, I Have A Blog?

Hayley — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 13:37:18 +0000

Has it really been that long since my last post? Shocking really. It seems that for the past month or so, I haven’t really spent much time in Bristol, as I’ve been visiting friends and attending weddings. (OK, just the one wedding, but it was really super). I’ve not even been on Facebook as much normal, [...]

Taste Kid | Find similar music (artists, bands), movies, books
I like this a lot. Put the name of a band or a book, whatever, in to the search and it will tell you other things you might like. Great when you're looking for something new

If Twitter is down, which it does quite often, but you *need* to tweet, this is a great website
