Life...and other afflictions

The rantings and uninteresting events of my life

Okay, tried to figure out what the problem is with the internet. Can't pin it down to one thing though. One thing's for sure. It's not always the server. Tried with my friend's laptop. We tried all the ceteris paribus experiments we could think of, but there seems to be no one reason. See, my laptop and cable adaptor work in her room perfectly fine. Her laptop and cable adaptor work in my room as well. So we tried with her cable adaptor. It worked. With my cable adaptor, it didn't. But if there was something wrong with the cable adaptor per se, then I shouldn't have been able to connect in her room either. However, with my older cable adaptor, the internet in my room works again. I'm highly puzzled. But computers have never been my strong point.

Okay, since I have basically wasted the whole of today, I shall have to spend all of Saturday and Sunday on homework. No escaping! Hopefully I'll have some time on Monday to chill..or to complete the rest of the homework that I haven't been able to do yet! But that should be the worst case scenario. I'm gonna bury myself in homework tomorrow. I should have at least 1/2 done by then. Then more work again on Sunday. Naja...

Internet is screwy again. I can never access hotmail and MSN never connects. What on earth is wrong man? All the other sites work...in general I mean. It's like my com suddenly developed a hotmail allergy or something. I just don't get it. It's stressful cos while I'm supposed to concentrate on my work, I keep worrying that suddenly the internet will conk out on me again and I can't do all the important stuff that I'm supposed to do!

I really should stop coming online...but I just wanna check that everything's okay...that's all! Sigh. Immense stress.

On the up side, it is now the weekend..which means, I have time to do homework! Yay! Haha..yup, homework is my number one preoccupation now..apart from whether hotmail and MSN work or not.

Can't wait for the Whitsun hols! I'll be going to Lake Constance and then maybe to visit a friend. Well, have to factor in timr for homework too, but well....let's not get ahead of ourselves now, shall we?

So damn stressed. I managed to get myself really wanting to get a degree at this uni...but I realise there are a gazillion obstacles in the way...and I'm not even thinking about a lack of intelligence. I'm talking about administrative rubbish. Like how many courses in which particular areas...and which kind of Schein I need...a normal "pass or fail" Schein, or a one with a grade. I'm dead confused and also it's like there's so much stuff to clear up that my head is spinning! But I suppose I'll have to sit down and really think about it soon, before I waste more time doing all the wrong things.

One of my friends here is married. I just found that out in class. Ah well. Interesting to be married at 24 I'll bet. I also met a new girl today. She's from South Korea. She's interesting!

So sian lah..must wake up at 6am tmr. Keinen Bock drauf!!

MSN and Hotmail keep screwing up on me...tried 3 times to write RUth an email but it kept not sending properly...UGH!!! Really pissed!

Okay, long day of school tomorrow. Gtg.

Sigh. I have so much to complain about. I wanna hold my tongue..but cannot. Too much pent-up frustration inside.

It's been a long week. Why? Cos doing homework the whole time. If it's not the usual, necessary daily activities, homework occupies my entire brain. However, once I stop thinking about how to finish my bloody homework, I start getting bizarre thoughts, like: "Why was I not stupid enough not to get into university, when in the first place, I'm dead sure

hmm, I wrote a super long entry and the above is all I have left of it. Oh screw the idiotic internet Ausfaelle man! Or maybe it's my just deserts for complaining too much...RETRIBUTION!
