So.....last night when I went to take a nap and prepare for yet another all nighter, a friend that I had asked about my computer weeks ago decided that it was a good idea to help w/ my computer last night. Instead of buying more memory, he wanted to try "something else". He told me what he wanted to do and it was fine with me. Little did I know that it would take from 8:30PM until three in the morning. We had to take all of my music and pictures off (all of the rest of my important documents are on my USB). This alone took until 1:30. Who the fuck new? We had to take my little USB (because the net was so slow), and fill it up, then dump it into his computer, then fill it up, then dump it into his computer, until it was done. I think it was like 10GB. THEN download "drivers" (whatever they are), from the HP pavillion site over my shitty internet connection, then set up my brand new computer. We were both super irritated by the end and were running out of life stores and ended up looking at the little load bar for minutes at a time, willing it to go faster. "One little bar....two little green bars....three little green bars...."
I can't really complain, he was helping me and my computer runs like lightening now. I didn't see anyone else who knows about computers running to my rescue. I mean, he could have just told me to buy a bunch of memory and sent me on my way but he offered to help and that was really nice. But this caused me to miss my test at 8:00AM. Setting back all of the work I did. I made a 50 page study guide, and I didn't even fucking show. Now I'm super stressed.
On the bright side I found a bunch of videos I had forgotten about while dissecting my computer. Unfortunately I pretty much was so frustrated by the end of the ordeal that I didn't even bother to get any of my stuff from his computer. So now I have two songs on my itunes: American Idiot, and Baby Boy (by Beyonce). And now I have to beg my teacher to let me make up my test. To compound that, I slept through a class that I was having at 1:00PM. And was so pissed that i went back to sleep and slept through my 3:30 class. So yea, my computer may be alright but now I'M not. Looks like another week of late nights. And who knows if I'll be able to make up the test. I'm afraid to get my music back in fear of it turning into another all nighter.
Officer transition meeting went well. Im going to miss SWE.
I find that breathing is fine until I sit down for a while. That is very weird.
Other than that I'm just consumed in studying.
