I had a good Thanksgiving with my family and today had a long train ride and went from rain to snow. I didn't actually end up online that much this holiday and had a fun moment of my computer thinking it didn't have enough battery and shutting itself off ( Read more... )

This day has been good then awful. I had lunch with my brother and niece, read the paper and went to turn on my laptop and it didn't work. I troubleshooted but a stupid spill last night didn't make it happy. At least in the phone, the help desk guy was understanding. I just feeling thrown off. So tomorrow I go to the nearest Apple Store and try not ( Read more... )

I hate this week a lot. Last night I was working on the assignment for my Online Search course and I thought I did it okay. This class has handouts and powerpoints aplenty so I was referring to them all over the place. In class I mentioned mine since I didn't get a result so I figured I did something wrong ( Read more... )

I've made it through my second week of classes and this is going to be a good semester. I've discovered that I can take my laptop to the computer repair place on campus and hopefully it won't cost too much to fix. Now the question is when do I find the time to do it.
