Big Week
Author: Christopher Souvey26 May
Had a pretty exciting week:
- Bought a new laptop (12.1" HP tx2000 tablet with 3GB RAM) to replace my aging dv2000
- Sang a solo (Yesterday, Beatles) in Kirby Music Night (along with 12 other songs, since I’m in both Chorus & Chamber Choir)
- Finally got a cell phone (Motorola w490) with T-Mobile, and am paying $6 a month for unlimited wireless internet on it
- Caved in and got a Facebook so I can stay in contact with all the my friends that are graduating this year (since it finally set in after Music Night - we all started crying
)
Next week will be pretty busy too:
- Meeting with school college counselor
- Going to Google IO (2-day web developer conference)
- Latin III final (my only final, since my other classes were AP)
- Last week of school (which I have mixed feelings about, since I’m happy for this year to end, but it will be my last week with all my senior friends)

Oooooh, a Motorola w490? How 2007. And you’re paying $6 a month for wireless? What a sucker.
And one more thing–you do NOT need 3 GB of ram. Been doing any major video-intensive or graphic design work recently? Oh, that’s right–it’s Windows-based! Oooooh, look at me with my beautiful M$ Paint picture that only took me 17 hours to make even though I could have drawn it in GIMP or Photoshop and it actually mightn’t have sucked! I’m such a rebellious artistic-type; the ladies will flock to me!
Guess what? There’s a right and a wrong way to rebel against the status quo, and Mac users have been it doing the right way since waaaay before you Winblows-lusers could tell the difference between A:\ and D:\.
Face the facts, Chris. The reason you keep buying new laptops? Why you’re so quick to heartlessly throw away obsolete hardware whose life could easily be extended another 13 years by installing Debian? You want a real computer. You want a Mac. You’re just too blind to see the truth.
Someday, though, you’ll see the light and become a proper non-conformist. Someday, you too will join the cause and Think Different.
So, if Mac users have been right all along, why did Apple switch over to Intel chips? Oh and thanks a lot Souvey, now I’m the only one who hasn’t given in to the social network flock.
Well, at least Yesterday was in the first half! After Aaron’s solo… that’d be tough song to sing without crying.
You should have been in choir yesterday and today. Pomp and Circumstance is an AMAZING piece.
Gah.
But the google conference was probably better.
