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.

This is a great motivational video. The part about the "connecting dots" is specially imporant to me.

This helps me when I feel confused.

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

Live Music Overload

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.

It's Poo Poo Time!

"Sit on me." HAHAHAHAH I've heard that one before, just no in that context.

My Hitsong for the week

saboia — Mon, 22 Oct 2007 00:30:45 +0200

This was an instant classic from the moment I first saw the video.

Plus, the kid and his relationship with the animals remind of a 80's classic, The NeverEnding Story.

Hooray for live music!

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.

Hooray for Apple, John Stewart, Digg, Google, Firefox, and of course, public fisting. Hahaha!

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!

saboia — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 23:47:15 +0200

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.

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.
