Crappy day

Well, the day didn't start great, and didn't get better untill the end. You'r responsible for my change in mood, you know who you are. THX. Umm.. since last time... I've built yet annother computer. We scrapped an old dell with a 2.4 ghz chip. We were able to re-use the chip. It all started when we tried to upgrade the computer. We wen't out to get ram for it when really it had some sort of shit bios ram. An older thing, slow, and far more expensive then it should be. It would cost more for 512 mb of that crap ram, then from 1 gig of sdram. We got a new mother board so we wouldn't have to buy the crap ram. Switching the MB was fun because it didn't fit in the old case so we had to get a new case. The heat sink from the old case didn't fit the new case so we needed to get a new heatsink. In all the upgrade cost about 400 bucks which isn't bad considering how much we redid. I tried to replace the HD but the new power supply didn't come with the new plugs for the new SATA drive that i bought. So i just put that drive into my computer. We used the old hd on the new computer, old cpu, cdrom, gc, monitor. It was lightning fast. Great improvement. Although recently they have been complaining that it will randomly shut down when they are doing something with it. I suspect the 'foot hitting reset button' error, but it may be the computer. I updated the bios, and checked the temperatures. It doesn't seem to be over heating, and if it was the bio, the problem should be fixed now. I'm improving at builing. Maybe i'll make something of it one day. Maybe not.
This weekend i was also able to get Mac OSX to run on my own home made PC. I've got an AMD X2 CPU with tons of ram. It took a while to get it to work, but in the end, success. First of all, the keyboard wouldn't work so i got the usb keyboard from the basement and that was fixed. Then it wouldn't see any of my hard drives. I thought that was because they were in NTSF format, but it was actually because it didn't recognize the SATA connection. I ended up using a 4 gig whiner from an old scrap computer to finally get the thing installed. When the os was up and running it was a bit sluggis and the internet didn't work. I expected this. The OS was not designed to run on such a variety of hardware. Its supposed to run on mac and on mac only. That way they don't need to have countless drivers for coutless pieces of hardware.
I still would like to purchase a 12 inch ibook soon, before uni. I just need it for internet, portability, and document process.
It was a super crappy no good horrible day today. Dad's sick, MAJOR grump head but i forgive him. We all act crabby when we're sick. Its never fun.

Lightning, Thunder and Snow?

How peculiar, at the present time i'm sitting at my desk one thursday evening on a snow day. I look out my window and i can see: rain, hail, snow, fog, lighting and (hear) thunder!!! This is not the weather you see every day. So i figure i had better write a blog about it. It only happens once in a while. Damn Global Warming. Perhaps, with any luck, we'll get annother snow day, or an ice day tommorow. That would make for a very happy Matty. :) I proud of you Tiger! - Mattias V.

... a weekend

when i sit, when i stare, when i drive, when i glare, in every thought, you are there

Rents went away to Las Vegas, the house belonged to the kids. In the house we were the masterst, and we mastered the house. We visited Yorkdale Mall and that was a blast. Apple store. Lululemon :p got to spend some time doing squat. Between early mornings, and late nights, we got to sleep, eat, watch zoolander, the perfect man, hot tub, and sleep some more. Spending roughly $350 the week is ended with a delightful chat, and a shit load of homework. Hopefully this Blog will get me into the mood of doing pointless work for Damn Family Studies. Untill the time when i next write. - Mattias

Life is Amazing

I'm not sure what it is... but lately i've been extremely happy. Everything is going great in my life. I just had exams... and although exams are always stressfull, i wasn't freeking out. Just now i got my exam marks back.. marks didn't change. which is a good thing. i'm in a state of perpetual happyness . everything.. all of it.. just makes sense .. you just can't worry about the little things

Exam Countdown

First off, i would like to appologize for my previous posting, i was in an unusual state of mind. Today i tire to wake up. Chem (y) but bio (n). Handed in a ... uncomfortable ... creative piece of work ... we shall see what happens. It was raining today, and the possibly religious kids are dancing in the mud. An amazing thing to be able to discuss. You must find you asking hand in your parents pocket the same day i was. I've got get my sneekers out of the house, and take them to ALX for repair. I'm not speaking in code, i'm just covering my blog with a very thin, cold blanket which does nothing to keep you warm when in cold rooms. only the truthfull light will bring reality to madness. Unnatural rain is cold the first time around, but get to higher ground, and rainbows will fill the darkness. BTW exams are on their way... almost done my first semester!

o man... saturday night

Oooo man... its nearing midnight and i'm not home nor lost. Visualizing "I want Cheese" I am feeling like i've done something wrong. I'm sorry. Hannibal is a freeky movie. I watched it over the extent of the day. Waking up at roughly 7 ish this morning. A guitar is playing in my hearing. i wouldn't believe the comfort. O, God!!!! a druken reading of a half written blog concluded with a bird flipping.! You spell laugh with two E's. Ahn Etmt oww... HE's comming!! He's Comming!! but she knows. A view down her bridge past her nose lips. Umm... we're not going to make it. !! But thats ok, the stove clock is wrong.. all is well.!! hold it two do it high ...she must type something ;...fine then.

Tremblant and back

Good snow, good friend, swore neck, cold beer.

Tear

Pain

Ow, it hurts. Its a pain like no other. Deep, throbbing, and powerful. Fom the end of my nose, to the tip of my toes.

2sday after christmas

Well, its not tuesday anymore, but i'm still on tuesdays schedule.
I picked up a pair of headphones, they're MASSIVE, just how i wanted. And the sound is increadible. Got a Cell for christmas, WOOT!. Yeah that definatly wasn't expected. Not at all, but i'm not complaining. Its a sweet phone and i've got a sweet plan, i'm quite impressed.

I had the most annoying problem with msn mobile yesterday and today. The damn thing wouldn't work for my account. It worked right away for my sister AND my dad but it wouldn't work for me. So i gave up for a while and then tried it again tonight and it worked right away. GO figure! So i'm glad thats fixed... txt messages are great.

now.. onto explaining romance!
