*Hugs the computer* Yey, finally!

Postby SekoETC » Wed Sep 01, 2004 12:45 pm

OK, I survived these what, fifty hours quite niftly... No problem.. As some of you know I'm in boarding school now and things have been a bit messed up getting used to stuff and all... We had introduction to library and computer class today at 13:00. Ok, at noon I had nothing to do so I went to bed, closed my eyes for a sec and when I woke up, it was 13:50. Good thing the library thingy was first, but yeah it is embarrassing creeping to the computer class from a door that is located so that everyone sees me coming in. I just sat on the comp for a long while, wondering what the password is... The librarian told me we don't need passwords yet, were using a common login name. I tried it. Didn't work. Then finally the computer stuff teacher came in and politely told us the password is the same as login name. We had to sign forms we don't do anything unapropriate here, to get the private logins. The he told us we couldn't use them until some time tomorrow. Eeek! But in the mean time we can use the common login. Phew! *Heart starts beating again.*
So, as soon as I could I logged into Cantr, started new projects, tried to reply to what ever had been said or happened... All the time an uncomfortable feeling developing in my bladder... I went quite far, only two charries left when I finally had to run three floors down to find the bathroom. So lets face it, I'm an addict. I even missed tea.. And the clock is ticking... but I should be here for about an hour now, then is dinner, then I'll probably come back. And they said we cannot install anything here. Boohoo, I wan't Yahoo messenger!!! *Snif* Ok maybe I'll survive till weekend...

Well it's good that they have computers to utilize for cantr related purposes only. ;)

Use MSN, as there's a web-based client available... I can't remember where though.

Exactly, don't use MSN. I mean it never has ever worked for me.

Both AIM/YIM have web based messenger programs too

Good night.

Apart from the Cantr-people, most people do use MSN. I never said it was any better!

I use all of them.

(Dear diary kinda post.) Man I think my serotonine levels are really screwed up now... I've been moody for a while (you probably spot that from overacting in rp, funny thing I didn't realize that). Plus I forgot to take my meds this morning since I overslept again. I was going to wake up at 7 am because I figured that's when Cantr resets on this time zone but then I fell asleep again so I'm not sure if I calculated correctly. Anyway, I slept till 9:50 or something and was late from the class, but the teacher is nice, she just joked about my sleepiness... I was quite happy for the day, a little wild even - We went to an art museum and there was this installation of a room with a mirror.. but you cannot see yourself in the mirror. Because it's actually a window to another room constructed similar as the one you're in. So when I was alone in that room I climbed through the window and went to check what's behind the corner in the other side. (There was a hidden lamp so that it looks like there's light coming from an exit similar to the one in the public room.) You're not supposed to do that kinda stuff in an art exhibition! But anyway, it was damn funny, I kept chuckling for a long time after that, so that one classmate stopped to ask me what's so funny.

But then in the evening I met my support person probably for the last time, I'm getting another one because this old one lives too far away from my school. So they where both there, the old one and the new one. At first it went well but suddenly this anxiety starts building up inside me. We went to a gas station cafeteria to grab some snack, at that time I was literally frozen and the old support person was like is there something wrong with me... I just pointed what soda and pastry I want, then we went to the table. I read this gossip magazine there, seeing all the depressing stuff about celebrities and their oppressing husbands.. I just couldn't eat anymore. Getting tears in my eyes. Is there something wrong she asks? I just explain how I feel bad, I try not to cry but I can't help it, I don't want to throw away the pastry so they put it in a paper bag for me. I finished my soda and was almost alright again, though feeling down. We went back to my school, every once in a while I feel the sadness rising up, but I don't think I cried any more then. My old support person's husband came to pick her up (we were using the new lady's car) and he took a couple of pictures of us, I was smiling. But then when it was time to say goodbye I had to turn my back to her and really force the words come out. Later I send her sms telling I really wished I had a mother like her. -- This really much reminds me of the behaviour of one of my charries lately... So who's affecting who?

My day

Postby SekoETC » Sun Sep 05, 2004 8:09 pm

Just great nitefyre, you always gotta say something even if you don't know what.. Nah, thanks. :)

Anyways, back to my wazzups no one really wants to hear.

First of, do computer mouses come with build-in scum? Of course when I got to school I first rushed into the computer class to recover from the dreadful one and a half hours sitting in a car, just drawing and staring at fields and cows. (Yes, this place is pretty much on the countryside.) But what I noticed is that the mouse was almost unusable because it was so full of scum. I spend a lot of time scratching it off there, all the time wondering if there are actually some kind of safety tires made of shit, and I was now doing damage to the mouse. :-/ When I later came back I was distracted by a moved mouse pad (there is only one in the class I think, so everybody keeps hogging it). I thought this was the comp I used before. (It's the woman thing, women map their environment by details while men measure distances.) When I had opened it I suddenly noticed it is #5, and the last one was #9. To save some time I opened up the mouse and found out this one was even worse full of scum. Makes me wonder even more if they put it in there in the factory...

In between I made "instant" noodle soup. If you haven't tried doing that without a water heater let me just say that what ever reads in the package, you better add 15 to 20 minutes to that. Boiling water in a kettle is dreadfully slow. And when it should be ready, of course there is too much water left and the flaviouring stuff doesn't help much then.

And I also saw a wonderful sunset... Like a red orange. I ran to get my camera but of course the sun vanished behind the treetops just when I reached the shore. I never knew it happens so fast. Damn, if I hadn't been smoking I could have went to get the camera immediately.

School mice always get dirty very quickly. Many times, I've used exactly the same PC and mouse, to find it covered in muck again after only a few hours.

15 days til I leave home...
