While money is extremely tight right now,  I know that somewhere down the road I’m going to have to look into a new laptop.  While I absolutely love owning a Mac, I feel that having a Windows based computer is an important aspect of design so I’m going to go with a Windows based system.  This leaves me to decide upon Acer, HP, Gateway, Dell or any other company that produces laptops. So my question is this – What company would you personally recommend for someone who uses their laptop for: Coding (PHP/XHTML) Graphics Design (Quick jobs in Photoshop, I…more»

I found something pretty interesting for those of you looking towards a new career. The thought of being a Flight Attendant seems pretty cool to me. You get to travel around the world and while you’re only real job is to serve and calm those on a plane, you’re still given the ability to go to hundreds of new places and see everything that the world has to offer. I didn’t know you could actually attend a flight attendant school but I also understand that having the skills and knowledge to get the job done safely is important. I’ve been…more»

Sean and I are going to be working our butts off for the next few weeks so we can get some money together and find our own apartment. We’re doing every little odd and end job that we need so we can make enough money to move up North. As of Friday we’ll be away for about a week working so we can get even more added to our monthly income. Our living situation isn’t exactly “great” and after having a wonderful week up in New York, being back down here just doesn’t feel the same. We’re looking into an…more»

Have you ever been interested in traveling the world? There are quite a few places of interest for me and all of them, oddly enough, fall in Europe. I’ve always had an interest in going to Italy because it’s where my family came from. After that I’ve been itching to get up to Ireland considering I’m more Irish than anything, I’m just unsure of where to start considering my family bounced around for many years before they settled in New York back in the early 1900’s. Another place of interest for me is Spain, this is probably due to my…more»

I’ve just finished registering a new domain, as if the four that I already own aren’t enough to maintain.  I’m really not sure where exactly I’m going to go with it, I do believe it will be a social networking experiment on my part but I’ll go into further detail about that later.  For now I’m perfectly content with blogging on three domains, I highly doubt this new one will be a blog.  It may have an option for a blog later down the road, but that depends on where I’m going to take it. Technorati: New Domains, Blogging, Social…more»

I’m sure this would be better suited on my weight loss domain but I’m confident that it will gain more exposure here so naturally this is where the post is going to go. For quite some time now I’ve been dieting, I’ve been lucky enough to lose about 50 pounds and I still have a bit to go before I can get down to my absolute goal weight of 150lbs. Many people would want to say that 150 is overweight but considering I’ve always been a big girl, being super thin really isn’t a comfortable option for me. Up until…more»

I forgot to pick up a set of head phones when I was in the store tonight.  Right now there’s a movie on in the background that’s drowning out some of the noise so at least that counts for something.  I’m working on going through my email and what not so I can sit back and relax for a little while.  Hopefully that’ll go off without a hitch. I haven’t seen Pirates of the Caribbean in quite some time so since Daddy got the third one for Christmas, Sean and I are going to watch the first two to catch…more»

Lately I’ve noticed that I’m having trouble seeing unless I’m looking at some kind of a brightview LCD monitor. I have no problem seeing on the Mac, I don’t even have trouble on this new monitor. When I’m looking at CRT’s or even TubeTV’s my attention span is null and void because I can’t get my eyes to focus. They keep crossing on me for some reason and then I wonder if I’m just over working these days. Both Sean and my father have pretty bad eyesight. A few nights ago I put on Sean’s glasses before I put them…more»

I forgot to bring my external hard drive up with me and I’m going bonkers without it.  I have all of my yearly earnings on it and I’m working along side my father in order to get my taxes in order.  I’m unsure of what taxes I’m supposed to file this year.  I know that I’ve been in Delaware since January but I didn’t change my ID over until the end of December – so as far as they’re concerned, I’ve only lived out of state for the last two weeks.  I really need to get in touch with someone…more»

I still can’t find any headphones anywhere but I’m still floating around on last.fm in hopes to find something good. Unfortunately there’s nothing online at the moment that’s even remotely interesting to me. I can’t find half the bands I listen to and there’s no way in heck I’m going to float around on myspace and have to deal with all of the noisy random banner ads that pop in and out of the screen. I can understand wanting to make money off of your website, but the company sold for like $50,000,000 – how in heck are you still…more»
