School While In A Daze...

Location: Unitar workstation, pc with eyeballs.
Mood-of-the-day: I hate Mondays

At this moment, I’m watching a screensaver someone had downloaded, something about stopping to smell the flowers. If I knew the site I would have given it here and downloaded a piece myself. My new Windows 2000 still have no more personality that the Savinoff Scene. And the download would have killed my thumb drive. It’s only the 4th of October and already I’ve used up 129Mbytes.

Lucky I didn’t brought the cheaper 128Mbytes. Didn’t know I was a freeware fanatic until I got the tools to become one. Let’s see what’s taking so much room. I’ve got 9 zip files (only 2 were Telecommunications chapters), 6 text documents, 3 MSWord documents, 4 Jpegs (2 maps, one Scene, One Garfield comic strip), and that Winamp Media from Multimedia project (20+Mbytes). Wow, I’m so FAT32. Note to self: Trim everything.

Here’s an ode to my ongoing distaste for my school’s firewall building community (aka administrators). I can’t play Runescape. During a free-time escapade during the 7 and a half hours before actual class starts, I did a lazy Google surf by randomly typing in subjects and see what comes up (you try typing in ‘Mooning’ in the Images search and see how many comes up). That’s when I found this cute site.

A Gathering of Players

Apparently no pre-downloaded program needed, just some Java support. I was ready to kick demonic ass with a power nickname to boot (Pattern_Star, and it’s mine!) when a lil’ pop-up message box warns that I’m being monitored and Unitar’s PC-Police are watching me and the next offence would be a termination of my PC usage for one day. What the heck?

Anyway I suppose they have their rights. So far my school’s administrators had banned Yahoo chats, MSN messenger, both IRC and ICQ, a few Java applets, no movie files, no executable software, no MP3s and many others I hadn’t found out what I can’t access. Yes, no porn either. The last bit would have been excusable.

The only chats allowed are the Online Tutorials (OLT). I’m having Telecommunications OLT today so it doesn’t matter if I ever get off this chair. Which is great since I’m downloading the RPG Maker 2000 from RPGInfinity. For um, no particularly true reason that actually results in long hours in front of the PC, which I’m already going through already, that needs even longer amount of time to the point that my thumb drive, as said... oh, just move on! Nothing more to read here :D.

Signed: *Ophie, countdown T-minus 10 to entering OLT class... 10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...
