Dear readers,

The time has now come when I have ended my additional education in my field of choice. I have successfully completed a BTEC National Diploma for I.T. Practitioners course, a Diploma of Higher Education in Web Technology and a Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree in Web Technology (the latter, I hope anyway). Throughout my educational rein, I have always been caught up in the rule changes for the worse. I did English GCSE when the rule came in so you couldn’t take in your poetry anthology into the exam. I did the BTEC IT course and the following year it was restructured with more media-based units that I would have enjoyed. The degree course changed its CAT points scoring system so all that is now different. SO what next? Well now I have finished education and the job market has crashed here in the United Kingdom.

Hi readers of Tweaked for your Pleasure,

My topic for this post is a daunting one in the fact that is covers a lot of us and has great impacts when you really think hard about it. This topic looks at feeling old and I want to share my thoughts with you all.

I am a typical 21 year old student from England. Born in January 1989 seems like a very long time ago to say we are now in 2010.

Many people have that perception that things from the late 1990′s and early 2000′s is not that long ago. But thinking about it, that is 10 years or more now. It is scary.

Due to recent findings and memory jogs in the history of Wrights Productions and Tweaked for your Pleasure, I decided to devote my first main article to our relationship in the past and where this is leading. I hope you will enjoy the article and all comments welcomed.

Back in 2005, this website was known as Ellisfamily.tk and was hosted by Forumer. I began studying a college course (Short IT course) with Snat (Matthew) in the September of 2005 and we became good friends. Snat introduced me to the world of websites and recruited me as staff on Ellisfamily.tk. I posted regularly and eventually controlled thread categories and became an administrator. During this time, the website finally parted from Forumer and went stand-alone. I also began enjoying web development at college and Matt encouraged me to continue outside the college environment. In December 2005 I began planning the Ellisfamily.tk Fan Site.
