Life in College..

Umm.. So yeah, I just recently started college here in Mendota Heights at Brown College. I'm currently taking a course called Network Development, which gives me an Associates in Applied Science. It's basically computer stuff.

In other news, I was just a victim of a hit-and-run... Now my back hurts and my bumper is loose and my muffler is hanging lower than it really should... The police officer found the Wisconsin plate and served justice...

Ooh, I got my new school laptop. It's an hp EliteBook 8530w MobileWorkstation.. Here's a picture!!

I love my new laptop!! It has a built-in camera and keyboard light!!

Well I guess that's it for this update... I'll really try to update a lot more often with my new 7Mbps Internet with Qwest!! Nice nice!!

Holy Hannah and a half!!

Haven't updated in such a long time! My socializing skills have started to wither and die on me!!

So first, I'd like to update on my dearest Heidi (Chevrolet Corsica)
She died. About 20 times. In a day. A very, very hot day. Sweat is rolling down my face, hair is falling out like no other... I guess it's something non-cpu related since the "Service Engine Soon" light didn't pop on once when she died multiple times that one fateful day. I'm guessing it's a starter or fuel tank-related problem. Can't say for sure. But I can absolutely say that I need a working car by the time I move into my apartment complex July 10th, and definitely by July 13th when I start college at Brown.

Right now I am taking Summer School because I am short one credit for Mathematics. My math teacher decided not to pass me when I'm 2% away from graduating on time with all my friends. Nice. I'll be finished by tomorrow though, and still a week and a half to spare to get ready and pack for college!!

So excited!!

In other words, I've been having super bad luck in the dating arena. Is there an actual decent guy out there that isn't a jack ass and won't stop communicating with you after getting to know you one day? Especially when the first date was an exceptional one where laughter and talking was something we wern't short of... I mean, seriously!!!

I guess that's about it. There's a lot of multimedia things that I need to upload. Check out my Flickr account!! I'll be uploading new photos and videos very soon. Maybe within the week. When I'm not busy at all.

Cheerio!!

So I didn't make it

, , , ...

I still haven't slept today, I was planning on going to Stefan's house and follow him to MSP to share our final farewells, but I was a few minutes away from catching him leaving his house. So I missed the whole. Entire. Thing.

Then what did I do? I drove around, went onto my driveway and took a 30-minute nap, then drove around again, pretending that I had a life. Wonderful scenery, though. Check it!

When commenting on something or writing on a persons wall, Opera just hangs there and doesn't post what you wanted to post. Refer to the image below.

Opera 10b Rendering issues

When entering Apple.com there are some rendering issues.

Opera Turbo, Opera 10b Feedback

, ,

While Opera 10b is running excellent on Ubuntu Linux "Jaunty Jackalope v9.04," there's still some work that I think would be needed for Opera's Turbo technology.



As you can see in the picture above, as you right-click an image that has been compressed by Turbo, there's no option whatsoever on viewing the full-quality image. I find this option necessary for any and all Opera users that has Turbo enabled.

Overall, Opera 10b is excellent. Though it's still in the beta stage, I find that Opera 10b is way up there along with Mozilla's Firefox. The theme is excellent. It's very clean, responsive and very easy to use. Opera without Turbo technology is somewhat slower than Firefox but I'm sure that the development team is still actively working on that.

I shall continue to use Opera 10b as my main browser. Hopefully Turbo is the only downside I have for the beta right now. Great work!

Look What's Missing!!

,

Look what's missing between the two photos besides what I'm wearing and what's in the background. You guessed it. I finally shaved that beard off my face!! What a difference it makes... I look a lot younger now..

Apples to Apples

Apples to Apples!! I love Apples to Apples! Mom finally bought it at WalMart. It's going to be a fun trip to/at Texas for the Family Reunion!!

Flickr Pro account

, ,

Just purchased a Flickr Pro account! Now I get to view my photo stats, have unlimited photo and video uploads and keep more than 200 of my photos!! Nice!!

Goodbye party @ Applebee's

Eating these extremely tough riblets.. A chunk of it got stuck into my teeth!! Posing for a picture. Thanks to Jake Balsimo for taking this photo.
