Month: June 2007

I finally come around to post again. I see, you’re not interested in Hardware things? 😉
So, when I go to my google.com/ig site, all the sites I have in my feed have “six weird things” in their current last blog titles. Well, ok, not ALL the sites, but Vera and Sigrun do, and those are the two who tagged me.

Six weird things you should (actually) never know about me:

Hm, I will list here some things, that a girl I study with, thinks are very weird about me (I don’t think that at all)

1. I eat carrots and kiwis with their skin
2. I get up every morning at 6.30am
3. I don’t want to marry churchly , but maybe outside or some other building

Ok, so do you think that those are weird things??

Now I’ll list things that come to my mind:

1. When I ride my bike (to class), I always need a gum so that my throat doesn’t get too dry. While driving, I’ll chew the gum like a cow – that is, beacause I breathe through my mouth while driving (weird or no?)
2. When I don’t have at least one chapstick close to me, I’ll freak

And the weirdest of the weirdest:

1. I like to code 😛

A few days ago I called Dell to see what’s up with the 3GB RAM – turns out I DO have four, but the windows 32-bit system can’t desplay it (don’t ask me why or what). I checked the BIOS and yep, 4GB 🙂

Life’s busy at the moment, I’m wondering when I’m going to start being the moody bitch I always turn into during exam time. Those exams are so damn huge and there’s soooo much to study for, 10 hours a day on the weekend don’t seem to be enough (and during the week a few hours). Plus the assignements, which are also not small. I wish the exams would be after the semester, because then we’d have time to study. But no, they’re DURING the semester, starting one day after the last class. 🙁

Back to Dell – I was installing (or configurating) the Operating System and XP asked what name the computer should have. I typed in “Tracy”. Then it asked me which other people have access to this PC, I typed in “Tracy” and “Alex”. Ok, so “Tracy” I couldn’t use, because the computer’s name is already Tracy, so… I put in Alex. And NOW?!?! The Computer is registered for Alex, everything I save goes under ALEX. Argh – does anybody know IF I can change that? If you press [WINDOWS] + [PAUSE] – there it will say who the PC is registered for.

Oh well, I just guess that shows how much I love him.. haha.. 😛

I’m eating Mac & Cheese right now – from the States – haven’t had that in years, it already had its due date two years ago 😀 It still tastes sooo good though!

I’m blogging this post from my new PC and my new widescreen monitor 🙂 Both work great. McAffe is installed – so no need to worry. Office 07 is a pain. The old Office formats were always quite the same, but Office 07? Totally different. It’s nice looking though and I knew that it’s totally different but I still ordered it, so I’ll have to get used to it sometime soon.

The only thing that’s confusing me is – I ordered the PC with 4GB RAM but when I check with [WINDOWS]+[PAUSE] it tells me I have 3GB. Every order/email/order certificate tells me I have 4GB so I don’t know if I’m just not seeing the other 1GB or if they gave me too less. I’ll probably check out Dell’s support. Odd.

EDIT: I’m not using Vista – I ordered the Windows XP Media Center OS. It’s great for maintaining Music, Photos … all the Media things.
