the new computer, an outdoor activity, and singing lessons

got a new computer...actually got an upgrade on my old computer and built myself a new computer out of spare parts and one bought part, the motherboard. i decided that i wanted a computer for school and that we had enough spare pc components to build a spare one for me to use. gotta love pcs. anyhow, the video card we found for it is old as me so i'm going to see about ordering another one for cheap.

i've been installing software and managing files all weekend. i've also been trying to get my desk organized and the room clean. i think i've been pretty successful.

since i passed my history test, i will no longer be needing all the books and notes people have given me for past history classes and tests. i had to get everyone's stuff in order so i can give them back this week. i want to give them something to show how grateful i am that they let me borrow their things. i don't think a thankyou note is enough so i'm trying to come up with something not too over the top and not too lame. the best thing i've gotten so far is maybe a candy package or something.

i did a couple of fun things today besides computer stuff. my friend, eric, called today asking if we wanted to do anything outside since it was such a nice day. jeremy was tired of going out since we had just gotten back from running errands outside....so he just wanted to stay indoors and chilll. i didn't want to do anything that would require too much endurance since i was pretty tired so i suggested that we could do photos. i've been wanting to take more photos of people but have been lacking in the model department. so that's what i did. we went outside and i took about 32 poses of him around various natural and man-made scenes.

around 9pm, our friend hani came through town on his way back from a wedding in Dallas....so we went out to eat with him. we went to eat at Wanfu and i got my usual beef and broccoli combination. i don't know why i don't ever stray from the regular menu. i guess i'm a conservative eater.

after he left and we went back to the condo, i gave my brother's friend some singing lessons. hehehe.. that was very fun and entertaining. i kept asking him to breath in certain ways and he kept saying he couldn't do it without shitting in his pants. heheh. and also at one point, i was showing him how to enunciate words while singing My Country Tis of Thee...and i sang "Myyyyyyy Cuuuuuunt ry tis of theeeee" hehehe.
yeah, singing is a really dooozy.

now i'm going to go crash out in my newly washed 400 count prima satin cotton sheets and 350 count goose down comforter...aaaawwww yeeeeaaah.
