Firefox just works better

saboia — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 17:51:26 +0100

How far does one's ignorance over technological matters go?

Well, I just installed Mozilla Firefox on my mom's laptop and I had to change its icon to the infamous Internet Explorer's "e", otherwise she wouldn't know how to check E-mail.

Random Thoughts From My Five Day Weekend

You don't really know life, until you know love.

Live Music Overload

saboia — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 10:40:53 +0100

Not that is a bad thing. I mean, if that was as frequent as my lonely weekends, life would be better.

And, for the first time, I get the meaning of the lyrics to Best Of You.

Hooray for live music!

saboia — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 20:53:03 +0200

After an eight months hiatus, I was able to do what I like best: scream at the top of my lungs the lyrics to songs I've been listening to for years at a live concert.

Thank you, Incubus, for the giving me the chance to let it all out last night, as I concentrated all my frustations and rage into the words of Megalomaniac, The Warmth, Sick Sad Little World and Pistola.

But sure enought, it gave me something to look into as held my cellphone up and called my boyfriend during "I Wish you were here".

God Put a Smile Upon My Face

Actually, he did.

Sade:
Isso só acaba se um de nós realmente quiser - e ninguém quer.
Não esquece - faça tudo que tiver que fazer antes de nos vermos, pois seu rendimento vai cair.
O meu cai.
Subo em cima de você [ou vice versa] e esqueço da vida...

Every now and then he says somethings I want to show the world.

Random thoughts from work

The worst thing about coming to work before your boss is that you get more familiar with the work place than him. So you start doing stuff you shouldn't.

Oh damn you iTunes!

I remmember the day I was given the gift of portable music. It was Christmas ´97, and I got my first discman. The first one to use it was mybrother. He excluded himself from the family reunion to an isolated room where he listened to his Alanis Morisette album, which was his present, in myChristmas present.

Since then, I don´t know what it feels like to be on a moving vehicle and not listen to music. That same discman would go everyday to class with me until early 2005, when I got my first iPod. I remmember when I started taking the city bus to school, I wouldn´t take me iPod with me in the beginning. But then I became a very bitter person. So started taking my iPod with me, even if taking the bus was somewhat dangerous.

Last night, I sync-ed my pictures library to my 80Gb iPod. I never sync my iPod to my libraries, but it was the only way to get my pictures into my iPod. So I did it. I payed much attention to not sync the songs and erase them all. But I guess that didn't work.

This morning, as I say to my dad in the car "I feel like listening to the Foos today", I realised I couldn't find any songs on my iPod. Only pictures! What good will that do?

This is my first big frustation I get from Apple. I'm guessing there are more to come. Oh well.

September 30th

Ok, it's September 30th. When will Apple's home page announce a release date for Leopard?

Oh, btw, I'm turning 19 today. (: Hooray for me!

More than the machine can handle

saboia — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 00:04:59 +0200

Not for the first time this week, I'm realizing I can do more than I thought. Suprisingly enough, I had to hear that from other people.

Only, that I need more RAM to handle up to three major softwares running simontaniously.

Mac OS is growing on me

saboia — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 16:23:13 +0200

For almost three weeks now, I spend the first four hours of my day monitoring video-editting and advertising classes on 20 Macs.

Just now, after I left my job to work on some stuff on the pc-lab I just tried to close a window on its upper-left hand corner.

This makes me happy. :D I´m leaving the dark side of the force. Now all I need to for Apple to finally release Leopard so I can finally get my Macbook Pro!

Dont'cha think?

Isn't it funny, how the one thing I love the most about the person I love the most is the same thing I hate the most about everybody else?

Isn't that ironic?

Adobe and iTunes. Lot's of work. What...

saboia — Sun, 16 Sep 2007 22:05:07 +0200

Adobe and iTunes. Lot's of work. What more could I ask for?

Oh right, more RAM. And for someone to shoot the freaking life outta her.

Adobe Camera Raw

saboia — Sun, 16 Sep 2007 02:24:10 +0200

I've just discovered a whole new world in the wonder that is Adobeland.

Now all I need is to nerd my way through life for another three years so I can master Adobe Camera Raw like I've mastered Photoshop. Muwah muwah muwah.

Mac Transition

saboia — Tue, 11 Sep 2007 12:29:49 +0200

My Mac transition has begun. Yesterday was my first day as an intern on the G5 Computer labs. I got learn all stuff about Final Cut. And today promisses to be a good one, it´s Photoshop day!

I´m excited.

It's a good day to be me.

saboia — Wed, 05 Sep 2007 00:06:59 +0200

It sure is! It first started with me finally getting the job I wanted at school. I got a chance to talk with the guys from the department, which are offering jobs for students in the editing rooms working with Final Cut Pro on a Power Mac G5; and in the classrooms where they have hands-on classes with Photoshop and Final Cut Pro. I wanted to work in the editting rooms, but since I know my way around Photoshop, they put me in the classrooms. Plus, most kids who apply never worked with Macs - I know, it's a shame - and since I did, I got a big "yes! come work with us!" from them. I should start working as soon as I get all the documents ready.

Then, after that, I bought my Tim Festival tickets, which included concerts by The Arctic Monkeys and The Killers.

In the words of the immortal Chandler Bing, could I be any happier?
