New Computer
So after about three weeks of sketchy computerness at home, I decided that it would be a good use of my Christmas bonus to get a new computer. So I went out and got a nice laptop yesterday.
It's nice to finally have a laptop -- though I think it's a good investment to buy because of all the time and money it would have taken to upgrade the desktop. It also comes with the ability to upgrade to vista when it comes out in like March or whatever for no extra charge. Sweet! This was a much easier way to upgrade. No hassle -- just a few extra $$'s. The only thing I need to work on yet is getting the wireless up and functioning. That will be fun... I tried a bit yesterday and was having issue with configuring the router. I then gave up and decided that it would be a much better use of my time to play on my new computer instead of struggling with the stupid wireless - I'd just plug in the cable and be done for the day.
It's been a crazy month or so. During the last month it seemed like I had tons to do and not enough time to do it, but looking back I realize how little that I've accomplished. I haven't even finished Christmas shopping -- NOTE TO SELF -- today is last day for free shipping via amazon. DO IT!
Thankfully my German glass will be over at the end of this week. I'm still in a debate as to wether I want to continue next semester. I found that by the end of this semester I just didn't care anymore. It's been really difficult to even attend a 6pm class. Most days of the week I work from like 8am-6pm -- so it' shard to leave early -- and early enough to review things before quizes and stuff to be able to do well on them. It's been a little annoying. Though tomorrow will be my last class this semester. I guess I'll decided after Christmas as to wether or not I'm going to keep going.
I still haven't completely shaken this cold that I've had since I got back from Thanksgiving. It's still lingering even after I took 10 days of antibiotics. It's pretty ridiculous -- but at the same time being mentally worn down doesn't help anything.
Well... I should probably go study for my German final....
