So.... I haven't updated in a while! Aaahaha? But STUFF HAS HAPPENED. OH YES. SPONKEH STUFF.

....Ahem.

First off: Winter break! WOO! No school for two weeks! This, of course, = awesome. On Friday, I went to work, (it would seem that they appreciate my not-so-crazy clean-up skills), and did stuff there... then, Andrew and Court picked me up and we sort of crashed at Andrew's house and showed Kingdom Hearts to Mado, who also came over... and... then Andrew wasn't feeling too well, so he went to bed and Court and I tried to RP, but I sort of fell asleep. Aheh.

Sooo, next day, I was a lazy bum and hung around... Andrew went and took Court home, and then my mom called me to say that she wanted to take me computer shopping with her! You see---she had this oldass crazy retro like FIRST MODEL iBook, and my dad pretty much convinced her that she needed a newer one, although I kept on telling her that her old one was PERFECTLY FINE, but then again, I'm awesome at coaxing old macs to work for me. Oh yes.

Anyway, so we went shopping, and she got a new cute li'l 12 inch iBook.

WHICH MEANS.

I GOT HER OLD ONE.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I totally didn't manipulate any of this to work for me, either. I TOLD HER HER OLD ONE WAS FINE, what with me souping it up with the highest possible OS 9 version of Mozilla and such. (WHICH ACTUALLY WORKS HALF-DECENTLY.) And she should understand that she has no right to get frustrated at my messy room when I get so FRUSTRATED WITH HER MESSY COMPUTER. WTF. Her old iBook was disorganized to the MAX, with everything on the desktop and.... argh. NO WONDER IT WAS SO SLOW.

...Anyway. :D; Used the house's networking to transfer all her shit to her new computer, and I cleaned all the OLD SHIT out of this one. I'm sad, though... I used to have so many VinCid pics on this computer, but I was an idiot and deleted them all a while back. ;___; (Yes. Most of my VinCid pics were hidden in my mom's laptop. So sue me.)

You know how many gigs this computer has for a hard drive?

Fifteen? Ten?

TRY FOUR.

....Hahaha so awesome and old. <3 See, I wanted one of these really badly when I was a little kid, so it's almost like fulfilling a childhood dream. XDD And see---now I can get this computer to work for me even better because I can customize the shit out of all the apps instead of having to keep my mom in mind at every turn. Erk.

Anywayy... yes. :D I can use this for mundane things like chatting and LJing and RPing around the house, and save everything directly to my main computer hard drive, (which I should actually clean out one of these days... it's down to about seven gigs... eeep. ALL ADVENT CHILDREN'S FAULT.) I can also play mp3s off of my main computer. Whooo! So the small memory bank doesn't matter much, really.

And the name of this adopted machine? It shall be henceforth called... TUESTI! In memory of my old computer, Reeve, who I cried for when I saw him being loaded into a computer recycling truck. ;____;

Anyway, yes. Wooo. More connectedness. XD

Watched Batman Begins again with my brother today. I'd forgotten how good it was, if that's at all possible. I mean---I remembered it was good, but I forgot it was that good. (I want the soundtrack. >>;)

Then we watched the beginning of The Day After Tomorrow and made fun of how freaking retarded it is. XDD And yes. Now, I think I shall sit down and clean out/organize my computer. X_X; Oh sweet Jesus...
