New things

I went to an orientation for college today with my dad. It all went really well. We asked questions about the program, saw students work and portfolios, and went on a school tour. Pretty full day even though it was only for 2 hours. I loved everything I saw.  The program I’m taking you get use of your own laptop, which is a Macbook Pro btw ;) … There are no exams *Thumbs up* The program is all about projects, etc..  You learn everything media based basically. Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, Web Design, Graphic Design.. etc. Looks like a good program. There is a placement at the end, so you get a bit of experience in the end at a company too. At the school it includes a bus pass within Durham (where I am), and gym membership :) Sounds like a pretty sweet deal. HAHA & when I was at the school I saw a bunch of people I already know and some of my friends are taking a new program in the fall too. I’ll have some people I already know going to school.  BONUS! :) ;P

Anyway, I went to Kingston on the 6th for Andrea‘s Bday. I had a really great time. Lots of partying!! My fave. HAHA. It’s always good to get away from the normal. I love to travel so much. I’m planning on going back next week. So more fun to come! I can’t wait. This time, no crazy partying drinking… I think at least ;) Planning on seeing Knowing. I love Nicolas Cage! His movies never disappoint me.

Last week I got a new laptop! :D :D I got this one from Best Buy it was on sale then. I picked it up last Thursday night. I’m pretty happy with it. It runs perfectly, so smooth and quick. I never thought I’d love a PC again. HAHAHAHA… I do miss my Mac OS though. :( oh well, soon September will come and I can use it again. har har. Laptops are so convenient,  love it. I’m not use to the webcam though. Sometimes I get freaked out that someone can see me. I’ve always had my webcam disconnected on my desktop, that’s just me being paranoid. A few weeks ago they had a episode on CSI (with Diddy btw) and they could access a stolen laptops webcam remotely.. that was freaky HAHA I know that’s all Hollywood though ;)

IN MAY I am planning a trip to see Laurie in Montreal!!!!!! At the end of the month for her birthday. I haven’t seen her in a while. Like 2 years maybe? I forget. So I’m pretty stoked about that. Should be fun!!!

Umm, and I dunno what else…. ttyl

January

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

This month so far has been uneventful.  I’ve been working less hours, and have tons of free time. I’ve finished 5 books already and it’s only the middle of the month. LOL. I’ve been reading a lot of  Chick Lit books by Sophie Kinsella. On Monday I bought 4 of her Shopaholic books. I have been obsessed with the series ever since I started the first one earlier this month. They’re really easy to get into, even if you’re not the type of person who reads. Like me. HAHA, never thought the day would come when I would choose reading over going out to the bar/club. It has given me some sort of peace in my life.

TV has taken over my life too. I’ve been obsessed with everything on the Discovery Channel. ESPECIALLY Dirty Jobs. Oh man, that show is fucking hilarious. Been watching CSI at least 4 times a day too. I like that it is on so much after I get home from work. It’s relaxing. Speaking of CSI, tomorrow/today (Thurs 15th) is Grissoms last day!! I’m definitely tuning into it tonight.

Monday I also picked up a classic Wii remote controller. I’m playing The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. A classic. It’s still fun to play even after all these years. By far one of the best classic games out there.

Sunday I ended up getting my new iPods. LOVE. It pretty much made my whole week. To answer the questions I got on my previous entry asking why do I have 2 iPods. It’s because I originally upgraded to the 160GB because my library wont fit on any smaller iPods. I have an obsession with music, and can’t bear not having it ALL with me. I had a nano as well because I got it for only $50 from a friend, and thought it was worth snatching that deal. I use the nano mainly for the gym. I would rather not bring the Classic iPod there because I fear ruining it. LOL ….. hope that answers the question.

BTW Gelaskins are amazing!!! I ordered a few earlier this week, and they came in today. I posted them on my flickr account. So check them out!! I’m pleased with the way they turned out. This one was my first iPod with Gelaskins a year ago or so. :) I love their designs. They are just so unique.
