Especially when I'm playing an MMO online. (zOMG from gaiaonline.com)
I'm trying to defeat these monsters and it's so laggy I get killed without even having a chance to fight back.
Fuck you, you stupid computer. You overheat with 30 minutes of surfing the internet, or just 10 minutes of playing that.
And thus this is the start of my actual "update".
I'll hopefully have a computer by Christmas. I'm getting a second job soon and that should really help speed things along. I'm most likely getting a job at a subway. I'm a shoe-in due to the fact both my brothers work at different subways, and if I get hired I'll be working at a different one than both of them. Haha. (I feel like such a mooch-I got my library job because of Mike and I'll get subway from both my brothers D:)
Don't get me wrong, the library is good, but even during the summer I only work 3 days a week for 10 hours a week: two days for 3 hours and one for 4. And during the school year it's one evening shift (4 hours) and one weekend morning shift (3-4 hours). So obviously in order for me to save up for a laptop by Christamas I would need to save every penny, which, trust me, wouldn't happen. So I need to get another job, and it should fit in pretty good.
Speaking about money, some events are coming up in which I'll be spending the last of my money on: the street fair, and kita kon. The street fair is first: it's in 3 days, and my library is selling books and a bunch of other shops are selling things as well. Luckily I don't have to work during the street fair, aha. I've caught the shopping bug lately and god knows I'll be buying at least a few items. I'm actually looking forward to that, however.
The second event is Kita Kon (anime convention). Right away, I have to spend 20 dollars just to be registered, and thats about 1/4 of the money I have in my bank account (blame the shopping bug, aha). However, I haven't read alot of anime, and I'm not big into buying books, so I shouldn't spend that much. (Why BUY books when I can just take them out for free at work? And even if none of the libraries in T-bay have them, I can always do inter-library loans, or just read manga off the internet for free!).
I figure since all I have is $80, I'll have a cap of $40 for the street fair, and whatever is left over will be used for Kita Kon. Whatever is left over will be added to my next expenses.
(Random note: Isnt it ironic that I started out this blog talking about SAVING money and in the last few paragraphs I just talked about how I'm going to spend my last $80? I'm a confusing person, but hopefully below should explain it a little)
I'll have my next paycheck just before school starts (september 1) and I'm thinking about getting my hair done professionally. This is kinda a big deal to me since I haven't gone to a salon since the 9th grade (going into grade 12 now) but mainly because of my trichotillomania. My bald spots are worse since I've posted the last pic, But I'm thinking I would stop pulling so much if I liked my hair a little more. I used to have black hair, but I bleached it in april, so my hair from the crown. goes:
roots (dark)
-blonde
-light brown
-medium brown
and in some spots its still black.
It looks very nice when I first did it, but now it looks gross. I absolutely hate almost everything about my hair (its thin, bald spots, limp...) and this shitty colour isn't helping. I'm hoping to get it back to my natural colour, but I'm NOT getting it cut. I'm going to make that clear to whoever does my hair, since it's taken me a year and a half to grow less than a foot.
I'm just hoping the hairdresser is very good (had a friend who got a very bad colour treatment last year) and understanding.
Anyways I've bored the crap out of anyone who has read this far, so I'm going to leave it at that for now. Byes for now.

Listening to: Gackt
Needs to do: Call for an appointment for an oil change and checkup for my car
Is annoyed by: my laptop
Kitsune no Tora is feeling: relatively good
The adapter for my laptop came in today. :D I was super excited, because that meant I didn't have to share the desktop with my brother anymore - my old adapter completely quit working last week. Turns out, it's about 2/3 of the length of my original adapter, so it doesn't stretch as far, and the short wasn't just in the old adapter - there must be a short in the computer itself. Which explains why it can't completely boot up just on battery power, even if the battery is completely charged. ;_; It makes me sad, because having it think it's being repeatedly unplugged and plugged back in in quick succession is NOT good for the computer at all. The problem is already responsible for two blue screens. The jack also doesn't fit in it completely, which isn't good.
I guess that's what I get for getting an off brand, but it was $20 less and promised it was the same (I checked everything on the old one and they all matched) so that's what I got. :/
I also got another technology-based disappointment last night. I was rifling through the paper, and found a Best Buy ad. Right on the front of it there was a laptop that had twice the amount of memory and RAM as my current computer, for less than what I paid for, and it has a webcam and microphone. ;_; /emo corner WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANT. But I cannot has - it would be pointless to buy a new computer while mine is in perfectly useable working order. I also saw another VERY SEXY laptop with about 3 times the memory and 4 times the RAM as my current one, but it was about $1200, so that's WAAAAY out of my reach. XD;
I also have to factor in the fact that the service engine soon light came on in my car yesterday. :/ So I might have car repairs in my near future to pay for. I know it needs an oil change, so my mom and I are hoping that the light will go off with one, but if it doesn't we'll have to find out what's wrong, which might be expensive. It's old and rusty and not worth fixing if the problem is serious, but I need a car (mostly for school next year), and I don't have the money to buy a new one, even if it's used and old like my current one. We'll have to see. My mom and I are going to go get it done tomorrow, hopefully.
Of course, this definitely means that while I only have access to this car, there is NO WAY I'm going to be able to visit Taylor, Mima, or Shadow this summer, like I was planning on doing. :( I had plot a course and decided on a date - August 17th - but that looks impossible now. I'm not driving 9 hours to an unknown place and risking my car breaking down and stranding me somewhere. It's just not a good idea, and I doubt my mom would give permission now that my car is starting to act up. And I can't borrow someone's car - what if something happened? I would be in trouble, and so would they.
Maybe next summer. The way things are going with this one, I expect I will either have a different car or none at all by that time. I still REALLY want to meet everyone (especially kaifu), but it's not going to happen this summer, sadly. :/
I'm slightly behind on Duplicity. I had decided that I wanted to update every week, and I've been following that relatively well with the first two chapters, but the issues with my laptop (and the fact that I hate the desktop's keyboard and couldn't brainstorm on it because I was uncomfortable) and my small block slowed me down. Considering that I've been technically working on this chapter for about 3 weeks, I SHOULD be done by now, but I'm not. ^^; But now that I finally have my laptop back, I just don't have the urge to write for whatever reason. :( Hell, I'm writing this instead of working, currently. XD (Ignore the fact that kaifu was bugging me to update it anyway. :P)
This chapter has the wedding scene, which I am currently stuck on for whatever reason. I just hate how Ray's internal monologue is going, and trying to add in little things between him and Max during the ceremony is not working well for whatever reason. :( I might have to re-write it as I type it up, I've been writing in a notebook while my laptop was incapacitated. Plus, I'm not entirely sure what to do after the wedding itself - I had an idea, but I don't think it's a very good one (although it's fun), but it would be more appropriate if there was something between it and the ceremony. And after it and the next big scene. But I just don't know WHAT. All those in-between things ALWAYS seem to trip me up, I hate that. :/
My aunt is leaving tomorrow morning. She has been here for about two weeks - she's visiting from Colorado like she does every summer. Right now my mom and her are running around trying to figure out snacks for her to take on the plane back, since it's a pretty long flight. Her visiting isn't all that big to me - she always comes here with the same stories, saying all the same things. Every. Year. Is. The. Same. It gets old after a while, you know. :P So I haven't really been paying much attention to her. I'm pretty sure it's pissing my mom off a little bit, but really, why should I be interested if she says all the same things all the time? And she's always smoking and drinking outside - while I don't mind the drinking so much, I don't like sitting outside and I hate the smoking. It seems innately attracted to me for whatever reason. D:
Apparently my hand tastes nice. Squirt just attacked it, pinned it underneath himself, and started licking me and purring. XD; Silly. :P
...AND I have nothing else to say. XP Night, digital abyss~
Recently found that many customers will be to repair the machine when the consultation on how our engineers and maintenance notebook, how to make the notebook to run even better. How to live longer allows notebook ... ...
The following is a collection of some notebook computers use to maintain some common sense and skills, would like to help laptop owners.
Liquid crystal display screen (LCD Panel)
Long period of time not to use the computer through keyboard function keys only a temporary power-down LCD screen, in addition to saving electricity can also be extended outside the screen life.
Do not force the screen covered with liquid crystal display screen above or any foreign body placed in between the keyboard and display screen to avoid the site because of the weight of glass and lead to damage to internal components.
Do not use fingernails and sharp objects (hard object) so as not to scratch the surface of touch screen.
Liquid crystal display screen surface adsorption due to electrostatic and dust, it is recommended to buy liquid crystal display screen special cloth to clean your screen, do not shoot with your fingers to avoid leaving fingerprints in addition to, and please wipe gently.
Do not use chemical cleaning agents to clean the screen.
Batteries (Battery) for example acer aspire 5500 battery
When no external power supply, the working conditions at that time if the temporary use of less than a PCMCIA card slot, it is proposed to remove the first card in order to extend battery life.
At room temperature (20-30 degrees) for the battery of the most appropriate operating temperature, the temperature too high or too low will reduce the operating environment of the use of battery time.
To provide a stable power supply in the environment using a laptop computer, remove the battery such as Dell INSPIRON 5100 Battery to extend battery life by is not correct. ASUS notebook computer on, when the battery power after the full charge, battery charging circuit will automatically shut down, so it will not charge the phenomenon occurred.
Proposed a three-month average battery power correction action.
Power adapter (AC Adapter) voltage when used with reference to that "
Keyboard (Keyboard)
Accumulation of dust can be a small brush to clean the cracks, or the use of general camera lens in a clean high-pressure jet cans, will blow the dust, or use a handheld vacuum cleaner to clean the dust off the keyboard and debris.
Clean surface can be coated with a soft cloth on a little detergent, in the case of off gently wipe the keyboard surface.
Hard drive (Hard Disk)
As far as possible the situation in the use of a smooth, easy to avoid shaking the place to operate a computer.
Switching process is the hard disk drive when most vulnerable. Hard disk speed bearings at this time has not been not been in a stable, if the vibration generated, then easily lead to a bad track. Therefore, a proposal to shut down after about 10 seconds or so and then wait for the mobile notebook computer.
The average monthly re-organization and implementation of a disk scan in order to enhance the efficiency of disk access.
Floppy Drive (Floppy)
Avoid the use of the appearance of non-performing or moldy piece of floppy disk.
Cleaning tablets to buy a floppy drive, read-write head regularly cleaned.
CD-ROM (CD-ROM)
The use of CD-ROM cleaning tablets regularly clean a laser read head.
Please hands and the land will be placed in CD drive, the CD tray with one hand holding the other hand will be fixed CD film really can avoid the CD tray deformation.
Touchpad (Touchpad)
When using the touchpad be sure to keep hands clean, run the cursor in order to avoid the phenomenon.
Careless dirty surface, dry cloth to gently wipe damp corner of your touchpad surface, do not use rough cloth to clean the surface of such articles.
Inductive touchpad is precision electronic components, please do not use sharp objects to write on the touch panel, the weight should not be used to avoid damage.
Thermal (Thermal Dissipation)
In general, the notebook computer manufacturers will be covered by the fans, cooling duct (Heat Pipe), a large heat sink, such as cooling holes to reduce the use of high temperatures generated.
In order to save power and to avoid noise, the fan is not a notebook computer has been running, but CPU has reached a certain temperature, the fan will start.
Notebook computers will be placed in the soft goods, such as: bed fool number one, there may be blocking the cooling effects of cooling holes and the effect of further lowering their operating performance, and even death.
Some other tips to deal with special circumstances:
Water processing
Must not rashly boot, or notebook computers will become more serious damage;
Immediately removed laptop's power cord and battery, if external or removable parts of the module (such as CD-ROM, floppy disk drive, memory expansion) be removed;
Notebook computers will be the body of water as far as possible down light, looking for a soft, wet paper towel or soft cloth to gently sludge and to avoid the worn surface;
Use fans to dry the body and parts, and in the first time to the service station by trained professional engineers to deal with in order to reduce damage to the minimum procedures.
Out the use of
Step 1: Identify all the backup battery power has been fully charged, you can see in the next operating system, battery power display.
Step 2: Turn off the power switch laptops.
Step three: The liquid crystal display screen and close the site to determine exact site location to get stuck.
Step Four: unplug the AC power line.
Step Five: pulled out all the links.
Step 6: Add a dedicated laptop bag in order to avoid dust pollution and collisions happen, and do not pay attention to a dedicated laptop bag with too many items to place in order to avoid crushed liquid crystal display glass. Power to maintain good habits of reactive power through the implementation of battery operation, if the power to maintain good habits, on the one hand, not only can reduce the energy consumption, on the other hand, can extend the battery life. Therefore, even if your laptop has built-in power-saving function to switch to the open state, however, the following training habits to save energy management is also very important, be sure to mind.
As far as possible the use of power adapter
Save battery power APPLE A1175 Battery the most obvious way is: whenever there is AC power available, they avoid the use of rechargeable batteries. As the transformer small size, light weight, easily portable, so as far as possible, often using the power adapter that you really need to use batteries, the hand at any time, there will be a full battery charge.
Use hotkey to suspend
Suspend the hotkeys in notebook computers is the most useful, for the time being to leave, just press this button, you can enter the computer system so that the most power-saving mode. When you return, press any button (standby mode), or power switches (sleep mode), the system will be able to return to the original location of the operation is running.
Screen brightness
The more bright liquid crystal display screen, the more power consumption. Therefore, in order to have a longer battery life, please avoid the screen brightness set higher than necessary. In addition, when you do not use laptops do not want to shutdown, you can close the LCD screen light will be able to save the most power.
Floppy drive and CD-ROM
Floppy disk drive and the drive of these two peripherals consume considerable battery power. Therefore, when your computer is from the implementation of battery-powered operation, as little as possible with the use of the floppy drive.
These are only some of day-to-day maintenance of common sense, if a computer problem, unfortunately, can only find on the real center of the computer maintenance.
