quickie update

Mood: busy

sorry it's been so long. this has been first opportunity for me to get online. we moved in on that saturday and sunday. completely. moved everything out of eastern beach over the two days. no problem with getting the dial up internet sorted. was sorted by the saturday night, BUT it is only on my dad's comp atm, so i can't really go on net at all cos he watches everything i do on his computer. so for past two weeks. i have had NO net whatsoever, apart from downloading ppt and pdf files for uni.

there is no net on my comp because my dad can't get the wireless stuff goin. well he can for his comp and modem, and for the printer for wireless. but he can't get a wireless network sorted for my computer to get on. *withdrawal symptons*

i begged my dad for a laptop i could take to uni and use for uni stuff, for net at uni (it's free wireless broadband at uni) and to get all my uni work done. but decent laptops are like in the $1000 range, which we cannot afford now. but come to arrangement with dad. i don't get a (new) laptop but i can take his to uni occasionally and get on net here.

so here i am. no internet essentially at home, and at uni we are restricted as well. i know you are allowed on facebook, so i hope i'm allowed on here haha.

suffering major withdrawak symptons. no net. not seen the latest eps of Fringe since Bad Dreams *gasp* i can't bear to think about it. i would be totally lost if i hadn't my media harddrive. i have already watched all seasons of xena, all films and start of series of hercules, over halfway through the 6 seasons of star trek voyager, started in dark angel as well. seen all of fringe again, and knightrider. i only hope that i can hold out until october for my missed eps of fringe. NO ONE TELL ME WHAT HAPPENS!! i don't even know the names of the epis.....oh crap i won't be able to get the comics *cries*.

and i am bumming out on floor near a plug cos the battery in this lasts like 10mins. it's riduclous. so yeah. i am slightly happier now i am back around a bit more...maybe like once a week.....and i have started to like driving to uni in morning now. over about 30km, i only go though four traffic lights to get to uni. rest is the glorious motorway.

well i'm going checking out my facebook....plus the fan is underneath the laptop, nd the laptop is on my knee so my knee is beginning to burn...O_o

:D if you reply, and i don't reply, i ain't ignoring you....just am very limited....at uni i am sacrificing time i should be doing to write up lecture notes and crap....hm....

Uhm, can't he? Or does he just not want to get the wireless up for your stuff?

I hope all things get sorted and we hear from you from time to time. ;)

Hm, so it's been like three weeks,but I finally have the wireless working on my computer so i can internet again, but my god....before it was like, during ads on tv, check some mail, but now it's, check email, and watch tv between page loads....ridiculous i tell ya :p

nah it we'rent he not wanting to set it up, i think he got pissed off at me continually having to go on his comp to get all my stuff for uni, but he works all day, and we have a strange setup for t'internet so we had to arrange with philip ~(computer brains in family) for a time when my dad could have a convo so he could set it up.

and then when it came to installing the netgear card, they sent us the wrong installation cd, so we had to spend like 2hrs to download a 14mb setup file for it. i'm on at uni again tho....gah and my torrent speed is like 4kb at its best that i have sen @_@ so i guess i will be a while before i see fringe, probs take me like three weeks to get one epi haha....
