Apple just released their new Magic Mouse. I'll admit that it looks pretty cool and the features mimic that of the new itouch technology. Downfall (for me at least)? It's cost is $70... for a mouse. Ouch. I'm doing perfectly fine with my Logitech mouse that cost like $12 bucks. I'm sure someone in my Graphic Design class will have one soon and I can test it before I even consider getting it. $70 dollars? Really. I give it a year and it'll be half that.

Here's the video by apple if you want to investigate.

If you've never used a MAC, some of the technology can be pretty awe inspiring - but not so new to us MAC users. (no offense PC's, I used to be one myself).

Cheers.

Well...this is me. In the flesh. I'm wearing a cap because it gets cold in my room, and my ears are sensitive.

I'm turning 22 in a month and I still feel like I'm 17 or something. And nothing has really changed in 5 years. I'm still in school, still living with my parents, paying my own bills, working where I've worked since I graduated and just as lonely as ever. My twin sister moved out a month ago and I'm loathed to admit that I miss her and love it when she stops by to visit us. I find this pathetic, because she only lives a half a mile away from us, so it's not like she's far away. But still....we all work and don't have the time like we used to.

The last day of classes are Nov. 30 and Dec.1, followed by Exam Week and you can bet that I'm counting down the days. This has been, hands down, the worst semester of my college life. Even the professors agree that this Fall has been particularly draining. I'm taking a few days off after my last exam/due date and for my birthday (they're in the same week) and just chill and then get drunk with my sister on our birthday.

Sounds like a plan.

I've never seen a UFC match before, but last night my umm...my sister's fiance's sister's husband bought it on PPV and HOLY SHIT HOT ALMOST NAKED MEN FIGHTING ROLLING AROUND IN A CAGE HOT HOTNESS ensued. Hell yes! I was slightly drunk - yes, slighty - while watching it, but no drooling thank god. But all the other guys in the room kept making fun of the men practically groping each other on the floor and nearly kissing and they had NO idea how hot it was making me. I'm serious, if the context were different, like, they were on a bed instead of the fighting cage, you'd think they were going at it instead of wailing on each other.

It was the lightweight, welterweight(don't ask, me either), and heavy lightweight matches so they were all fairly small dudes (no body builders or anything, ew). I would totally love to see more and pretend I'm really interested in the fighting. *giggle* I'm dirty, I know, but it was so fucking hot.

I just bought my MacBook Pro, CS4 Design Premium, and Fusion Suitcase! Ahhhh! Sooo much money!

At least it's done. I feel better now. School starts in two weeks and I'm glad I've got all of this taken care of. Now I just have to go buy my books, but most of that will be charged to my financial aid. Yes!

More drabbles. These are either PG to PG-13...ish. ^^

Sam is starting her senior year of HS and she's going a wee bit crazy. She's not brilliant, but then again, she's not stupid. The classes she's taken have been the minimum (I blame it on her friends) and now she's sick of school and wants to apply for early graduation. Me and my twin sis have been encouraging her to take more difficult, upper level class to help with college, but she never has and her options for classes to take is now severely limited. I just don't understand why she won't take practically FREE classes that would help with college! Those AP Classes helped me and my sister so much! I had a 3.6 GPA and my sister had a 4.1, she was 19th in the class and I was 33rd. We were pretty damn smart and we both got scholarships. Why can't Sam see how much it helped me and Jamie?! She thinks she's a slacker, but I know she's not!

It's just frustrating to see her fumble like this, when I offer good advice and she disregards it so carelessly.

Speaking of college - I've got one year left! Ha! I'll be terribly short on money, but I'll survive. I'm cutting my spending, and dropping some unnecessary bills before the semester starts. I can suffer without manga for a while (I'm the fool who has to have hard copies of everything!).  

I'm more than ready to finish this up. Srsly.

Yes, indeed, I have leaned my lesson. Do not play with your system files and make sure you have restore points and backup discs for your computer. I was a mess last night after one of my system files was renamed wrong. And that one file just happened to be pretty damn important to my Window's Explore interface. I will never go near my System32 files again.

I urge you all to do the same. (unless you know what the hell you're doing, that is)

Anyway, I finally got my laptop to do a system restore. I had initially set one up before I started all my "tweaking", but when I did the restore from that point, it didn't work. But finally got it to reboot and do a restore from an even earlier point and now it's all better. I am currently making backups of my iTunes library and my fiction/fanfiction files and I'll eventually make some of all my graphics and PS files.

The whole night I was thinking, "It's ok. There's nothing too important on there. I just find it all again. I can live without it. Yeah, it's ok." NOT! I was freaking out and I couldn't stop thinking about it.

BUT EVERYTHING IS FINE NOW.

My little sis forgot to logout of her fanfiction.net accound (which I didn't even know she had!) and I happened upon the fanfic she wrote!! I'm super excited! She wrote a Sakura/Sasuke fanfic back in 2007 - how cool is that!

XD Yeah. This is was cool.
