So almost another month since I blogged last. A lot has happened in my life and yet so little. Got sick twice, went to a few parties, saw a few movies and all stuff like that. In general, I think that it was a good month.

Thing is this, I had this month off at work and everything to study for my last exam which will be next Friday (yes it's crazy to have an exam right before the new semester works. I hate the people who come up which such crappy schedules). It's not like in the US or so where you have all exams in two weeks - here they get spread over the whole summer...
I have quite a few problems with the topic and I worry about the exam on Friday...

Due to my work position I was able to get the final release of Windows 7 and install it on my notebook. It certainly is interesting and it looks like so much that Vista couldn't do is now solved in this version. And it indeed uses way less resources. I like that. So far I only have it on my notebook not yet on my desktop because I plan to replace that one with a high end system once again. However I'm not yet sure if I shall spend so much money on a new PC or not.

What I also plan to buy is a new mobile phone and the first of which I think can compete with the iPhone. Check it out here. Don't get me wrong, I grew up with an Apple, I am an Apple user (although use PCs as well), I just don't like the iPhone much. For me that's just an iPod with phone function. That phone promises some nice stuff.

In other tech stuff, I turned my back on Fedora OS, since they don't appear to be able to get an installer working for me on any of my computers. OpenSUSE crashes once I upgrade to KDE 4.3 - so I ended up with KUbuntu. It took me a heck of a long time to get the PXE server configured to get it working. No wonder when there are typos in the example code on their Wiki page. But finally I got it working.

It certainly was a strange summer for me here. I worked full time for two months, had several though exams, some I passed, one I didn't. As I wrote above, I did a lot this months - and one thing sticks out - no holidays.
Now in mid-September semester starts again. As I still have the urge to get away, even if only for a couple of days, I have organized a few trips now (as finally I could find people who have time to come along). Only (long) weekend trips, but still. For starters I plan to go to the IAA, Europe's biggest car show. That will be mid-September. By the end of the month, I'll be traveling to Amsterdam to have some fun there. And then by the end of October my annual London trip is up again. And more surely will come around to keep me busy till Christmas.

Here on the site the only staff member that really appeared to care is gone and a new one came and was lost in the dark hole aka the nowhere. We at least got the back to episode link back after cast submissions, but now we no longer can import cast.
It's obvious that somebody is constantly working on the site, as minor things change quite often. Still the lack of communication of staff with the users and the failure of keeping promises (new cast form announced by danmod, as example) is just taken to the extreme.
In June I was in the team that built a new website for the place I work for. Before we went live, we tested for one week and could proudly say that we didn't encounter any major bugs, because we caught them. What is happening here is just ridiculous. Here people forget to add simple tags or decide to switch meta tags for no reason which mess with the site. I don't get it.
What surprises me most is how long this site has survived so far.

I think that's all for today. Thanks for reading and take care!

Ross finally got his acceptence letter today!! He called me and was so excited that the big letter finally came in. We both kind of freaked out. We shouldn't have, because I mean come on, he of course was going to get in, but still it was cool. Good timing too because we are supposed to sign our lease on the 23rd, and it would have been a little weird having his sign and lease and not knowing if he was really coming here next year.

Also in good news, I got an A on my first physics midterm. That was stunning because I failed the first test last semester. The average was a 33 out of 48, and I got a 45, so I literally screamed when I saw my score. It's just such an dramatic change from last semester, I didn't really think it was real at first until I actually got my test back and saw that I did that good. Now I'm really hoping that I can get an A in physics this semester. How crazy is that? From having to withdraw to getting an A. I just hope that come true.

TV news, Heroes has me going in circles. The end of the last volume was so good, this volume started off shaky, Jason said he would stop watching because he was so disappointed in the episode 2 weeks ago, and then last weeks ep was good again. I just hope that is stays strong because the love-hate relationship is getting annoying. I have found House though to be really good. I could do with less 13 and Foreman, but I've never really cared about any of Houses team anyways. I know a lot of people don't like how Cuddy has acted since she got her baby, but I thought the look on her face when she has to leave her baby and go to work was spot on. I've seen that face so many times at work, and have seen mothers in tears because they hate leaving their child to go to work. Also, the House on methadone episode was such a great episode. So is House actually nice, just the pain makes him angry? Or is just the relief of pain that makes his happy?
