Awesome. Sad subject, but a superb poem. I look forward to the story.

I guessed correctly!!! Beautiful dress!!! I like the roses in your hair! You must have looked fantastic!!! You guessed what right? Thank you! I liked the roses too. ~Liz As soon as I looked at the first picture, I knew which one you were. Glad to know I guessed correctly!!!!!

That was you behind me! I wasn't sure...and I didn't want it to be awkard if it wasn't you. I was sitting next to Naja...I took Physics and Math 2. They went pretty well. I wish I knew how I did! ~Liz My guess is that you did phenomenally well.

OMG I actually haven't seen that one before! Epic! I agree! The internets are a wonderful source of lulzy images. such as that one of Vince Offer i am sporting in my signature right now. I saw that. LOL

I LLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE those pictures!!!!!!!!!!! It is almost like the frog is posing for you!!! How phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol thanks! It really did seem like the frog was posing for me; it was so tame. I'm really happy you posted them, I have shown a number of people your photography. These are a couple of my favourites.

Flying from Lubbock, Texas to Memphis, Tennessee.

Amazing what you can dig up on the internet.

I LLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE those pictures!!!!!!!!!!! It is almost like the frog is posing for you!!! How phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm here... and in Lubbock, Texas and in Memphis.

Too much excitement! Congratulations for negotiating that super busy freeway and doing so calmly!!! You did great!!! Congratulations to your father and good luck to him in his new position and surgery. You can stay at my cage when you study here in the U.S.A.! Enjoy the concert.

I always like good news! This sounds like it will be a great summer!!! Sammy the Hamster has returned. And... I have some pictures I want to show you. Do you ever go down by the water? Ah, I have not seen Sammy. Nor much of anyone around here. And yes, I do go down by the water. xD I'll have to post some of my pictures. Give me a week on that. We stay down in the area called Gaslight Village or something like that.

The second practice bid just ended and I was 25 out of 43. Things are looking great!

You want iTunes. *cough, cough*

My suggestion would be to keep using iTunes. *cough, cough* Glad you have a good backpack that you like. Hopefully you will be able to put all of your books in there as well. Perhaps not ALL of your books. LOL One thing to keep in mind, when you are carrying your power cord, do not wind it to tightly around the unit itself. I have found that they do not have a long life. So what I do with mine is to hold the unit and wrap the cord very loosely around my hand then put the entire thing into a carrying case. Also you will find the cord twists inside itself, so I made sure that I would 'smooth' it out every now and then. You will figure out what I am talking about later, it probably does not make any sense now. Also, I kept the little cord pin cover and used it when I was carrying the laptop around. This protected the pins from damage. Of course, I don't think this is totally necessary, but I am pretty hard on things. I have kept ahold of the cover, and I have untwisted the cord out several times XD But, I'll keep in mind the thing about wrapping up the chord. I'd been wrapping it around the unit, so I'll stop that now. My method is to hold the square charger, and kind of make a very loose bunch of loops around your hand. That seems to work a little better for me. You will figure out what works best for you. Have you decided to keep iTunes? *cough, cough*

*FedExes over some chicken noodle soup, flowers and a get well card* Hope you are feeling better today. At least seeing Phil will brighten your day.

[ Thank you for continuing. I love reading your writing!!! ]

Oh, I am so sorry. My heart goes out to you and may your little friend RIP. This is why I always put two pieces of tape on the ball door... just in case.

I never can get away with anything.

When I was at the Apple Store for my Mac a few months back, they said I wouldn't need Boot Camp or VMware Fusion (which is actually better than Boot Camp). So the news made me quite happy as I had the iLife and iWork. You should find that the laptop comes with iPhoto which is also a terrific program. Do you have something to carry your laptop around in? I have some suggestions if you want. Also, have you started putting your music on your new laptop? You can click on "Get Album Covers" and iTunes will get the album covers to match your CDs.

Oh great, I'd better watch out now. I'm glad you enjoy your macbook. Does it have bootcamp? That would let you boot up into windows if you ever need to run something with that OS. Not sure how it works exactly...but I guess I'll find out in a few months. I found out recently that I can refresh my school laptop and get a macbook next semester! Random tip that I just learned today: Press command, option, and 8 together to zoom in and out toward your cursor. Keep holding those keys when you zoom in, and you can press + and - to adjust the zoom level before you let go. And yes... you Jesse, are the ultimate source!!! And rats... I actually knew something you didn't. That was probably the one and only thing you didn't know about the Mac. Actually, you don't need Boot Camp if you have iWork. This is supposed to replace the need for Boot Camp. At least that is what they told me in the Apple Store. But you know those geniuses. LOL Jesse, refresh that laptop as soon as you can and get your MacBook.

You have little faith in the good nature of people in my area. I live on the side of a hill in a somewhat rural area, so maybe that has something to do with people tending to get along more. I do not use the term "local market" loosely at all, except that I'm surprised that it's as big and modern as it is (air conditioning! ) Although you're probably right and I will probably get to see the bad sides of a few people. Maybe I will get stock clerk...then I don't have to deal with that aspect! I sent in my application today...I checked off every position cause I just want to be doing something. We'll see what happens. Good luck with your application. Rural areas tend to have nicer people as they need to get along. In the citified areas, people can be jerks because they can get away with it. I hope you hear that you are offered a position soon.

So... now you should have no reason whatsoever as to why you can't come here and make a post or two. Without copying and pasting from another website. *cough, cough* Glad to hear you got your new Mac. Welcome to the world of Mac users. If you need any help, although I am sure you are having more fun trying to figure it out, I can be of a little assistance. Of course, Jesse is the ultimate source of information, but I have a little basic knowledge. It is nice to know that you have a mysterious benefactor. You deserve whatever nice things come your way. Just so you know, the Apple programs match the Windows programs. So, if you need to write something in Word, just use Pages, Excel is Numbers and Power Point is Keynote. Apple has designed their program so that it will read the Windows and Windows can read the Apple. You should have no problem uploading your files. If you want some information on fonts, let me know. Also, you can go to the Apple website and put in your question and find almost any tutorial you would ever need. The one thing I love about Macs are that they are totally sensible. For example, if you make a single letter typo, just hit the delete key and it removes the last letter or group of letters and you can retype. None of this backing up to delete a letter. There are lots of other cool features. Have you shown Kris your laptop?
