Mar. 23rd, 2025 08:29 pmBack at ya again! Now I'm sitting in my library. I never normally go to the library on weekends, or in the evening, but I always love it when I do so maybe I should more often! Anyways, even though a few weeks ago I was kind of dreading summer, I don't think I am anymore. I can work to keep myself busy, and at least one of my friends should be in town so I can hang out! And I'm (fingers crossed) FINALLY going to get my license (yes, I still don't have it, and yes, I'm more embarrassed about it than you are shocked) over the summer so I might be able to visit some of my college friends! Also, I put together a summer playlist that I've been jamming to over the past few days! (Actually, I just had to pause midsentence writing that in order to jam out to All Mine by f(x). So I've been having a pretty epic time.)
Also, I've been having such a hectic week! I'll really miss my friends, but I won't miss the work (although I do love my English class) and I won't miss the roommate drama, which I won't even get into here because I'm trying to get over it and let it go, but suffice it to say I've had a dramatic week. And then yesterday I spent all day until like 9:00 PM working on my compsci homework! I had the whole suite of emotions, from "I'm dropping this like it's hot" to "I love this it's so fun!", and I had basically no human interaction all day yesterday either, which made for a treat. But despite not getting enough sleep last night, I've had a pretty chill day today! I even chose on a whim to eat dinner outside since it was really nice out, although I had to come inside the library for the last little bit since the wind got pretty cold all of a sudden.
But yeah, it's been a pretty good day! I'll try to work more on the site tomorrow if I have time. Also, my polycarbonate MacBook has become an object of admiration from other people! Just now a couple clubmates of mine complimented me on it, and this guy in my stats class (who I don't really like but that's a different story) did too. It's so cute and I really need to put it on my computers page! I actually think I'll do that just now. Toodles!
Spring "Break"
Mar. 15th, 2025 07:07 pmOK, so, HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?!? Like two and a half weeks?? Since I wrote a blog post. I would've written last weekend, since this week was my spring break. Except it wasn't really my spring break. Well, it was, but it sure as heck wasn't a break. I've had some crap to do every single day, and I don't even remember half of it. But I've had to do taxes, and my FAFSA, and other... crap? I've also had to visit family, but I got to hang out with #3 a lot more than before when I went to see them all on Monday! She and I ran away from her quarrelling older brothers to hide out and have some time to chillax. I also went on a country walk, which would have been very quaint if it weren't so dang hot. But I did climb over my first fence gate to my knowledge on Monday, and actually climbed over eight or nine total!
Beside that, I've been busy and tired lately. Ugh! Part of me can't wait for summer holiday, but part of me is almost dreading it. Blue might not come home for summer break, and all my friends from college are from near a couple of bigger cities a few hours away, and it's also been a while since Pink and I spoke, so I might only have Green over the summer as an in-person friend. And I hate the hot, muggy summer weather. I just hope I get to have a fun summer break!
Oh, another thing I did over spring break is that my dad and I replaced the hard drive on my MacBook with an SSD and upgraded the RAM from 2 to 8 gigabytes! So it should be appearing (finally) on my computers page soon, as well as the new-ish iMac I installed an OS on that my mum got me from a co-volunteer of hers. That took me a good part of a day, and the same again with getting an OS on my MacBook. Oh yeah, and I spent last Saturday and part of Sunday on homework, because I had to write three essays for my English midterm. Oy vey.
But yeah, that's about it. Here's to hoping that I can have a more interesting and less hectic life so I can have some stuff to talk about here and I can post here more often! Toodles, everyone!
Long time no see! Sorry the updates have been rather lacking lately, but school has been sucking up my time like a vacuum. First of all, my school just had our annual celebration of Rome's birthday that the Latin department puts on, which involved quite a bit of preparation. Today has honestly just been a terribly strange day, what with the celebration, and it really feels like it should be Friday already. Speaking of Friday, I have an essay on Beowulf due Friday, but I am way too exhausted to write that right now.
Also, the Apple event was yesterday! Those of you who know me well know that I'm a pretty devoted Apple user (except for my phone because of reasons), but I was in school during the Apple event yesterday, so I found out about all the new stuff afterwards. The M1 coming to the iPad Pro was probably pretty inevitable because of the whole "iPad-as-a-laptop" thing (even though I find that kinda infeasible for most people), but the new iMac was kinda unexpected for me! But I'll get into that in a moment.
The AirTags commercial they showed was super cool, especially the mini-cameo that an iPod nano makes in the couch world scene, which made this iPod fan quite happy. The iMac commercial also reminded me of another commercial for the iMac G3, which I'll embed below.
Anyways, the new iMac seems super cool! I have a 2017 21 inch iMac as my desktop computer at the moment, so I'm super excited for the new iMac when I need to upgrade! The only thing that bums me out is that there's less USB-A ports (which you have ot pay extra to get) and no SD card slot, but I suppose that was to be expected. I do have a USB-C hub with those ports that I bought for my 2019 MacBook Air when I got it though, if I can find that. Anyway, the new iMac's design is super cool! I'll embed a picture below, but honestly it's really pretty and I'm glad that they're returning the iMac to its colourful roots. I want a purple one! I especially love the pastels (I'm a sucker for pastels), and I think that the white bezel actually goes pretty well, even if some people might like it to be thinner.

Also, I've decided to start doing video blogs. I'm in the filming/editing stage of the first few episodes right now, but when the first few are done I plan to post them on YouTube, Vidlii and Bitview. I'll let you all know when I publish them!
Anyways, that's all for now, so I'll talk to you all later. Bye!
