Today I have been kept busy with the forum! The new version has been installed, and so far everything seems to be working well!

Hopefully such will continue to be the case.

It seems to be working great .

So, you like Evanescence? My sister likes them, probably one of her favorite bands. I like them, too, I know a few of their songs.

Yeah, I have today off because the teachers have to put grades in for the semester. So, I have basically been on the computer the whole day, been pretty lazy here and there. I have no homework, so that's one less thing to worry about. 

Apparently my name has to be filled out... What?? I don't get it..

I'm totally obsessed with Skillet and Evanescence... so yeah. Which songs?

Hopefully it went better than expected... :/ At least you made sure to be positive there at the end

Am I the only one with extra homework???

It did! It was amazing!   Monday was set up to be an awful day, and it wasn't, it was wonderful. The rehearsal actually went really well, the pianist was lovely and said I've really improved (although, the last time she heard me play was 2 years ago) and said it's going well, and karate was actually fun and not particularly tiring.

My teachers are always giving me extra homework. I get a ridiculous amount of chemistry. One of our teachers just gives us loads of questions, and it's always stuff we haven't covered yet so there's loads to look up. And the other one set us 2 past papers to do over the Christmas break but didn't email them to us, and then decided he wanted them done by yesterday. I was like "sorry, SAT..." so I still have to finish the second one by Friday. Which is clearly not going to happen.
So the short answer to your question is no.

I'm beginning to see a use for that smiley...

I need to practice violin but I'm too tired and my hands hurt.

Stupidly over-reacting to problems, and thereby creating much larger problems for myself.

I caught a computer virus yesterday. Went through the steps to clean it out. Got it to where all my virus software said it was cleared out. But the internet was running very slowly, and I couldn't get it to speed up.

So I guessed that the virus was a really bad one, and backed up some stuff, then wiped my hard drive and reinstalled the system software. I'm still working on getting everything reinstalled and back in place.

But while letting Microsoft do all of their necessary updates, I found that accessing the internet was still horribly slow. So I went out to the living room and shut down and restarted the cable modem and the router ... and boom, everything is back up to speed.

The virus was already gone, and I did NOT need to reinstall the operating system, so this has all been a huge waste of my time.

To make a long story short (just for Joe), I'm an idiot.

But I am doing things a little differently, this time. Since IE is supposed to be the most targeted and most 'open' to malware browser out there, I downloaded Chrome (Google's browser), and won't even use IE this time around.

That just happened at my mom's work place. They STILL haven't fixed it -_-

@Aaron - are you a tenor or bass?

E wrote on 01/26/10 at 6:33pm:


Great! Glad to hear it.

(Aaron) wrote on 01/26/10 at 5:17pm:


Awesome.

I just got their CD Fallen and Skillets Awake. I think I said that though...

Life sucks again. Ahhhhh

HAHA.

In the nicest way, really.    

I 'don't dance' either.

I hope the wedding was nice though?

I went to karate and now I have lots of work and very little time, so going into school 45 minutes early tomorrow in the hope of catching up a little.

Yup! It was quite fun. Everyone from work (with the exception of one who had a prior engagement) showed up. It was great.

I'm really sorry to hear that, Termite.


Had a pretty bad day, and I don't even know why.   And did a ridiculous amount of music. Orchestra at lunch, piano lesson, violin rehearsal, then a violin lesson.
Now I have to go start on homework.

Thanks, Aj, thanks, E. I am working hard at cheering up. That's why I've been going through Caleb and Daniel's baby pics.

The thing I hate about Chrome is that it keeps forgetting my passwords and won't leave me logged in for keeps and similar things. Maybe I have to mess around with the settings, or maybe it's just messed up, I dunno....
