I think my calc grade is inversly proportional to my physics grade

Yes, as I get better scores in Calc3, I continually get worse scores in Physics... For example, I ace the Calc midterm, I completely forget to do a physics lab. Fail.

Anyway, I guess I lied when I said my computer was all happy with Linux on it. Ok, well it was happy with the Linux part, but it was still angry about something else. Well what prompted the swtich was that I was managing to get a blue screen of death about 10 seconds after booting. Yes, I am so good as messing up computers that I have gotten a blue screen of death using vista... Anyway, a few days after that, it didn't want to start at all. The power light would come on and the fans would be running, but the screen was blank. So, being the internet sleuth I am, I dug around and found out that this was quite a common error with the model of HP laptop that I bought. And apprently (even though my warranty was expired) HP still was paying to replace the motherboards of all the laptops with this problem. Sweet! So I didn't have to pay a penny to get it fixed.

So Tuesday before last I drove down to senic Colfax and gave my father my laptop and he gave me my old one. Now when I say old, I mean really old, like 2002 old. It brought back some good memories, seeing that all my old files were on this from when I was in high school. It still had windows XP and was surprising up to date. I guess my mother had been using it for email and such. It was actually easier to hook up to the ethernet here on campus than my newer laptop. Yes, sadly, it does not even have a wireless card. But its ok, it manages to surf the web and play music decently. Even though I am going through a bit of withdrawl from my iTunes. This computer seems to be lacking in the music department.

The other frustrating part is MSDN. They are the organization that the school gets free software from. But unfortunately, you're only allowed to download this software once. So, that leaves me unable to download the program I need for my comp. science class. I love spending 6 hours in the campus computer labs trying to write code. Its my favorite... What's even worse though, is that the box that HP is sending to get my laptop in, is coming from Texas, where there is a hurricane. So I think I will have to survive for a few more weeks without my prescious laptop.

Other than that, not much has been going on in my life. So I will spare you the boring details. There has been an extreme lack of misadventures sadly, unless you count leaving your favorite scarf at the Pita Pit... Oh and when I bought a sandwich today, a guy from my theatre class made it, the whole time having a silly Italian accent, that was midly entertaining.

Well, seeing as I am incredibly tired, and sitting here at work in the incredibly quiet and empty computer lab, I will leave you at that.

Cheers,
Samantha
