November Agitation

A short account of my recent toils that cannot be expressed in this small paragraph: For weeks, I've been attempting to fix my HP Pavilion Elite desktop computer from that famous nvlddmkm.sys error on my Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit. Recently contacting HP, I've ordered recovery discs that has given me even more extreme cases of the error (I have a very severe version of nvlddmkm involving BSODs, my monitor losing the signal from my computer and mass pixelation on my computer screen) after I've used them and I'm finally getting a replacement video card from HP, hooray. Although I'm not sure if it'll fix the problem I'm hoping for the best (my same reaction to the recovery discs when a technician promised me that the problem would not persist). So far my computer can't even reach the desktop without a BSOD or pixelation!! You can't imagine how irritated I've been feeling these past weeks!

P.S. I've actually first experienced this problem half a year ago in late March, three days after I purchased the computer. I had it fixed in staples easy tech for $70 (brr...) and half a year later in October... :(

-This picture http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/4258/83489571.jpg is similar to the pixelation I've been experiencing. It occurs right after you started your computer or in random spasms after you restart your computer. You can be reading this right now then- BSOD.

...I really hate nvlddmkm. I hate it with a passion. I'm aware that it's a particular problem with NVIDIA graphics cards (I've heard that occurs in the ATI brand also) and I'm hoping that a new video card will fix the problem (I had all my NVIDIA drivers up to date though...).

November 2009= :(

I've also been receiving a lot of homework recently and material I don't understand in school.

*Sigh*

These days have been chillier than normal, don't you think?

Chinese Lunar Day!!

It's Chinese Lunar Day, the day when the moon is fullest, brightest and roundest over the course of this year. Look outside your window right now and make a wish! :D

Spanish Enriched

I'm taking Spanish enriched along with some freshmen in my school. I've just realized that the people taking Spanish enriched is going to take the second year of Spanish next year along with the classes that are learning Spanish for the first time. That's ridiculous, shouldn't kids like me who've taken two of Spanish in middle school get a different class in high school instead of being paired up with kids who've never touched the language before? What's the difference of taking Spanish enrichment or the first year of Spanish if we're all ending up with the same education? :( I already passed the Spanish proficiency test with over a 90... If only I took that Spanish placement exam in June more seriously... *grumble*

9/17/09

Here's a quick overview of what I did during the summer and recently.

Two months ago (June-July): A month long trip to China. Did a lot of exciting things that is blog worthy, but I'm too blog-lazy. :P

One month ago (August): Last days of summer09... :(

A week ago: Freshman week at Stuyvesant High School.

Now: A test tomorrow in Global History.

Stuyvesant thoughts: Darn! I have to continue taking Spanish. I have no love for the language and no interest for it. I envy my friend who began Japanese. At least my hard work in middle school will not be wasted... :(

-I don't have time anymore. It was with me a few weeks ago, but now I have to keep my eyes close on the clock. *sigh* High school...

Bad Luck 8/21/09

Today I stepped on gum while wearing a pair of black Crocs. It got below my heel and I had to walk by stepping on the gum barefoot over and over again. I spent the first half of the afternoon washing it with a hose and a toothbrush in my yard. Luckily Crocs are waterproof so I didn't have to wait too long for it to dry in the sun...until it rained...HARD. I rushed back into the house with my black Crocs, dry. ^_^

P.S. Damn those who spit gum on the floor.

Unbelievable+

I just reached my new highest combo on Combat Arms two days before in Death Room with a Mac 10. ^_^
