hi there!
I see you've stumbled on to my humble home on the net, Drive:Activated. My name's Sam, I'm an ambitious and driven uni student, residing in Melbourne, Australia, wanting to make my mark on our world. This is my site, which is mainly just my blog and some other bits. There's no definite theme to my blog, just anything that interests me, and currently that's web trends, startups, ideas and cool stuff. Check it out, leave me a comment, click on 'Who is this?' to find out more about me, or drop me a line by clicking on 'Let's Talk'. Hope you enjoy it!

Wow, it's nearly been a month since I last posted here. As you have probably guessed if you've read my recent entries, uni started this month, and has kept me fairly busy. Not so much the work (it's been pretty easy so far), but more the transport, socialising, and my resolution not to skip...

I've been sitting on this for a while, but never managed to get it polished enough, so I thought screw it, here it is. While pondering what I'm gonna do for the rest of my life (well at least the next few years anyway), I created a list of things I saw the world of tech focusing on for some direction...

Before I start, just want to say happy 1st birthday drive:activated (3 days ago now actually)! Thanks to everyone who have dropped by somewhere along the way - it's been a hell of a journey; met a heap of people, and has gotten me all kinds of places. Best of all, I've had fun writing about all...

I've been thinking about my productivity lately, especially as it's been 4 months since I started my intermission and I can't think of one major project I have completed. Sure there have been a heap of little ones, plus I'm now working, but even so, given how much time I have I should...

My goddamn hayfever is driving me bloody insane. Aargh! My nose is redder than Rudolph's, and my eyes are so red it looks like I haven't slept for days. I swear when I asked the Melbourne Central Connex guy where the toilet was, he thought I was on a drug-induced bender. Didn't help that...

Wow, it's been nearly 2 weeks since I posted here - damn time flies. Been really busy in the last few weeks with... of all things, work! Yep, for those who don't know, you heard right - I'm now employed! I know I said I wasn't going to before because right now I have a once-in-a-lifetime...

So my final exam (business stats, which wasn't so bad) has come and gone, and now I'm free from the clutches of uni (well, temporarily - I haven't quit just yet). How does it feel? Well, to be honest, I haven't been putting in 100% for uni for a while, instead I've been exploring my options and generally...

Ever get the feeling you're stuck in a locked prison cell while through the bars your dream is right there in front of you, waiting for you to embark on the wild ride? Ever feel like: you can't concentrate on doing anything else, apart from thinking about your cool ideas? you're being restrained because...
