so this is what i have done

bought me a nice little netbook.
10" screen dealio with a promised 11HOURS of battery life. whoopie! ^^
toshiba you crafty fools.
admittedly it's kind of small and hurts to type on it for too long, but this is only going to be my primary for a little while (projecting a week-ish?)
mostly this is for taking to class and whatnot.
very portable and light.
specs if you're curious:
1.6 ghz cpu
bout 1 gig of ram.
120 gigs of hard disk space.
6cell battery

all in all i am pretty darn satisfied.
the screen resolution is very nice as well. considering.
and 11 HOURS??? jeeze louise



and as a more permanent solution i'm getting a compaq desktop (compaq again, they're not too great with laptops in so far as i have seen... not too sturdy... but hopefully desktop will be better) with a 23" monitor. which is huge! but my dad was like, well it's only ten more dollars than the 21" so....
and i was like
YES.

:]




and now i'm going to write about five million essays on this tiny little netbook while trying not to overdose on tylenol. seriously my wrists are like "use proper typing form you nitwit!"
and i'm like "no!"

fuckity fuck fuck fuck

so i'm sure facebook informed you all of the sad state my laptop is in.
but to go into details..
it crashes every so often (record being three times in two days) for no reason. i'm starting to think virus(es)?
and now the screen's contact broke, according to my father.
which means that when i open it, it flickers a little, and then the backlit thing just kinda stops working.
so i have to transfer all my documents and shit onto my external harddrive.
the thing says it'll take three hours.
whoopee.

so i am now going to try and shop for a new laptop. toshiba?
i want to get a 16" with 4 gigs of ram and large harddrive space, and preferrably something like 2.6 gigs for my cpu. it'd also be heavenly to have a 9cell battery.
HOWEVER.
my dad is saying that i should get a smaller one. something like 14" because it's more energy efficient and has a longer battery life. which means sacrificing processor (down to maybe 1.3 gigs). He thinks i can take up a 19" monitor that we have lying around at home (i havent seen this but i'm sure he'd know) and i guess buy a new keyboard/mouse? and then dock my laptop.

but then that makes me think, why not just get a netbook and a desktop then? same thing basically, but no need to dock the laptop.

but i really dont like netbooks. they're so tiny, i cant read/see anything. which becomes an issue when i'm taking it to class and need to look online for lecture slides or something...

and then there are the few crazy people who are telling me to get a mac.
which i would, but i dont really want to take that month of getting used to a mac in the middle of my midterms and papers and stuff where i kinda need to be proficient with my computer. and also i think that mac's are overrated and too expensive.

input? what do you guys think?
i kinda need to do all the shopping today online and then go to the store to buy it with my daddy tomorrow. because i need it for school.


speaking of which, i dislike the fact that i have homework over break due to being on the semester system.
gross.
i have an essay due monday that i havent started yet, joy of joys.
i have a shitload of reading to do/articles to find for my final paper outline which is due on wednesday. and i have no idea where to start with that. happy birthday TO me.
and i have a midterm coming up in immunology that i'm SOOO not ready for. zipideedoodah.

well.
at least...






cant think of anything.

busier than i have been in a while

so i guess i have to recap on last night too, just cuz it was like woah.

spent most of the night taking care of a drunk friend. it was scary at one point, but she's ok today so i guess its alright. i feel responsible tho, cuz it was just me and her, and i should NOT have let her drink that much that fast.
there was vomit and pine-sol and stumbling and falling down stairs and almost falling asleep and being taken back to the dorms with the help of a frat brother. (he was super nice, walked us all the way back and was very patient, didnt even try to make a move on us. very decent human being.)
and then i went somewhere else to meet up with my floormates after leaving my friend with her roommate. that place was also f*cked up. i had to throw my shoes away, just to give you an idea.


mmm... and so that was a lovely experience.
but this morning, i woke up earlier than i would have liked to, but it was annoyingly gorgeous weather outside so i guess i minded less. (annoying because, wtf? it was all crazy cold and rainy and windy a couple days ago! make up your mind!) anywho.
went to a camp kesem thing a majigger. saw a couple of REALLY cute kids, but had to leave before i could actually play with them.
and then i met up with some girls from my writing class. we had to go to the sf asian art museum. it was actually really awesome! the shanghai show was reeeeally interesting. you wouldnt think of chinese art to be like some of the things we saw. it was really similar to western art! some of it seriously reminded me of like wwI propaganda posters and others made me think of like French impressionist art. it was very diverse.
got to know some of the girls pretty well. :] it was fun. i shocked them with the news that i am korean. teehee.
and then we went to look at some apartments. i actually went to the place of one of the girls i went to the museum with. it was small but nice. very close by. hardwood floors, which is a plus. and they want to sell us their furniture so it's partly furnished, which is a HUGE plus. ^^
and another place was a little further away, is well lit and spacious, but its carpet floors and a lot of people are looking at it, so that puts pressure on us. :[
and then audrey wanted heartgold, so we walked down to the bank and then to gamestop.
and theeeeeeeen, we decided that yogurtland was a good idea. ^^
that was my dinner i think. sooooo much fruit. ><;;
and now i am here. and i must write an essay.
poops.

p.s. happy pi day

i'm sick

every time i try to swallow, my body does a little mini seizure to cope with the pain.
my face scrunches up.
my leg lifts and shakes
my arms do that vigorous waving thing,
and i make a little moan of pain.



which is bad cuz i have to drink this tea, some theraflu tea, and some orange juice.
that is my self-medication.


my ears hurt.
deeeeeeep inside.
