It's been months since I wrote anything meaningful on here and if I did indeed write anything meaningful in my last posts/updates that I have now deleted by way, this will definitely be better.

Where do I even start? Traveling back 5 months to December, my dad found out that my mom was cheating on him so they settled on a divorce and ruin Christmas for the whole family, still most of my family doesn't know aside from my my own family and one of my grandmas, or at least to my knowledge. Whatever, the world still spins and alcohol still tastes beautifully.

In that time till now, relatively nothing has changed for me; I still go to the gym every other day to do my weights, run 8 miles and laugh at fat people running on the treadmills. I'm still going to school and still getting my average marks that don't justify the gruesome amounts of work that I do and that always gets overlooked or unappreciated. Of course I play guitar still but not as much as I did when I was severely clinically insane on the point of it and I still fuck around with computers and own all human life in terms of knowledge based on the subject.

Just weeks ago, on the 9th I believe, my cousin Michala Traczyk (Michael) from Poland died in a car accident with his girlfriend Ania Nowicka (Anna) and band bassist Patryk Klepacki (Patrick). His girlfriend was speeding and hit a truck where they all died on the spot and the driver of the other vehicle was in severe condition when he arrived at the hospital but no word on him other than that. So please keep them in your memory.

I got a new HDD a few days ago because I was having issues with my primary 250GB and could not boot into Windows anymore. I was also running out of space on my 500GB (That was also the case with my 250GB as well) and I needed to figure out a new strategy to get all my stuff on to one place safely and securely. So I got a 1TB WD 7200RPM 32MB HDD that should keep my company for the next few months till when I get another one and array them in RAID-0 for ultimate performance, space and super sketchy security as many would expect (RAID-0 means that it writes half of any data to both HDDs, so if one fails: they both become rendered useless technically, but it's still fast as shit from utilizing multiple heads rather than just one.)

I crossed over the 100GB of music line just a few months ago and with honor too! How so? Well, when I was collecting up my loot from my Torrents folder, all the music I was transferring over to my Music folder came out to being more than I anticipated and added with the music I already had, it turned out to being quite a bit. And how much is that? As of this writing, 126GB. 20,965 Songs, 437 Unique Artists and probably a life sentence if I ever were to get caught with this shit. Some serious life penalties for stealing those ones and zeroes.

Another fucking day wasted. I was really having my hopes up for today to become finally a time to do all my work and finish some long delayed shit but instead I'm mentally forced and feel an obligation to fix my computer which was working fine and dandy before I came up with the idea of installing XP on it and making it dual-boot with my Windows 7 partition. Long story short, XP fucked everything up but I managed to recover everything and set everything back to the way it was.

Third fucking day that I have been sacrificing a majority of my day for these past days to purely just homework. I hate studying and grinding up Shakespeare's work but not the work itself. It's as if the education system is purposely trying to breed generations of beings who will hate Shakespeare with a combined hatred that is equivalent to that of the hate people feel for Simon Cowell, that worthless rich douche bag judge from American Idol. But to be completely honest, it's not even English class that I'm despising the most but rather Religion with Ms. Fernandez. It's the one aspect of the day that I never look forward to and is typically the catalyst for causing me to stay in bed and only come out in the sheer last seconds before crucially having to step out the door to make it on time for school (The drive from my house to school is no laughing matter - 10km.)

Having to go to that class is almost as bad as having to give birth to an infant everyday; makes you want talk to others about how much you hate it, very tired, dizzy, head ache, ass ache, hate life, sometimes cry, sometimes yell, make your pulse rise, get panic attacks, swear a lot and it just makes you want to curl up in a ball and slowly rot to death. ITS SO BAD. I have learned absolutely nothing due to the fact that she doesn't know how to teach the course. I'm serious, she even mentioned it to us. The class is also very awkward most of the time and shes always at school (You would expect such an old woman to have something go wrong with her from time to time but no.) My theory is that she has a hard wired understanding that everyone thinks like her or that we are machines. Did I mention it's a grade 12 course and she won't even let us out to the bathroom? I would almost take Adolf Hitler over her. At least he would only make one' have to salute him every time one' wanted to go.

Anyways, I had downloaded a lot of movies last night, 22 more specifically and half of which are Blu-ray so they're a good 8~22GB each as oppose to the typically 0.7GB for a regular VGA format. Hopefully by tomorrow one or two of those Blu-ray movies will be done and I will be able to watch some high quality content and yes, I have managed to download all of the regular movies by this time already; my connection is pretty sweet in comparison to what people typically get.

I'm going to go and see this one chick this Saturday. I had met up with her last weekend and that was pretty chiil/awesome so we will see how it turns out this week. Apparently this time around I'm going to be going to her house and we are going to drink a bit and smoke some pot that I got laying around who knows what will happen after that.

Fuck, for Religion I have to this one project where I been asked to create a city. Easy enough, right? Should be fun and take next to no time to do, right? FUCKING WRONG. Other than the fact that I'm working alone as oppose to with a partner, the creation must be built and be jam packed with all this dumb bullshit and a paper has to go with it. As if I don't have enough shit on my mind with my King Lear essay for English coming up, my extremely massive essay/45 minute presentation for Religion to be done this week, my Magazine Advertisement Photoshop Project of Death Assignment for Computer Technology and massive amounts of homework I have to keep regularly finishing everyday from all my subjects. And don't get me started on my personal life. Maybe I'm just a bit whiny recently but I have enough of school and just want to relax for just one fucking day without having to worry about some bullshit papers that will be due in weeks from the current time.

Mission accomplished. That's right, guess who is going out with Natalie Derulska, me! Other than that, nothing has truly changed in the past week; I'm still doing my project(s) and still staying out of (most) trouble.

2009:05:26 - 07:20:23PM
Level up! Wow, Lv.26 already. Can't wait for the next level. What's wrong with me.

2009:05:24 - 01:44:31AM
I have the flu and I'm feeling extremely horrible and as if the disease won't stop climaxing. I'm feeling cold regardless of the fact that I'm under two blankets, have two sweaters on, laying in bed and have even socks on. Fuck my life. Last time I'm going to Wonderland, that's for sure.

Photoshopped a picture of myself for lulz.

Today's the day that I win an additional 1146MHz boost in frequency speeds on my aging Pentium D 930 3.0GHz (Stock). I over clocked it to 4146.8MHz with the lockd Multiplier at x 15.0 and the Bus Frequency to 276.5MHz. The Rated FSB is 1105.8MHz which is also impressive. I had also set the PCI E frequency to 117. Not experiencing any problems and its been already a few hours. No real downfalls so far but the computer is a lot more 'squickier' now. It makes all these squelling sounds. I found out that by lowering the VCore below 1.300V, it doesn't make that sound but when set to anything higher; it does. And disappointingly, I have to have it set to an astounding .750V more for there being enough electrons for the cpu to be properlly continually fed. That's all for now.

I have a month from now to choose a career that I want to pursue and to have a job associated with for the rest of my life. This is a bit too heavy for me and I'm the guy that listens to Technical Death Metal all day, errr. Right now it's between Languages and Computers. To make matters harder; when I choose one of those two fields, I'm going to have to choose a even more specific field of study. Computers are what I have been bathing myself in for the last good six years, and even before then I was still fascinated to learn tid bits and facts about them. Languages on the other hand, is a ability that was granted to me by my parents since they made the decision to move to Canada. Europe in general needs translators and offer crazy money for it. The money in tempting.

So I have been going craiglist crazy for the past month and sold so far: Electric guitar (180), acoustic guitar (100), amplifier (250), monitor 17"(50), computer (250), iPod screen (5) and hopefully tomorrow my Xbox (95) and a armchair (70). I also got my laser printer (80) and inFamous PS3 game (40) that I'm considering selling. If I sell those four items, I should finally have enough for 8/10 computer parts I need for constructing my next computer.

--------------------------------------

Buying these parts almost equally between two sites - Newegg.com and TigerDirect.ca. TD is mainly taking care of the Case, RAM and MB. Newegg, everything else listed. I hate how the shipping bumps up $40~60 when the case gets added into the cart.

So I got myself a Intel Core i7 today for $300. Found a guy on CL that was selling it and just had to go for it mainly for the big savings. Normally it's $340 plus $70 for shipping and handling + taxes, so I saved well over a hundred bucks on it. Today is such a great day. Next week I build my computer! Woo! (That is, if the parts arive... and if I order them tongiht x_x).

2009:07:31 - 05:47:31PM
Bit of an update on the hardware. I ran into some troubles in the last minutes. I was just about to check out and then as I checked the cart the last time, I notice that the price is the same.. but the case is missing. Turns out that it's out of stock, so now I had to mission to find another case and stores around here don't carry full towers and Newegg's shipping charges are ridiculous, seriously, $80 for a case that is priced $200? I found the same case for 180 and with free shipping plus I scouted the site a bit more and found the same motherboard I was about to buy for 310.99, for just 239.99. This gave me some more money to use up on other parts.

My case arrived today, it's pretty awesome. And apparently it's my Birthday today. 18 and I don't feel any different.
