Friday Five

August 30th, 2002 · No Comments

I can’t think of a thing to blog, so I’ll do the Friday Five:
1. What’s your favorite piece of clothing that you currently own?
Umm, that would probably be my new skirt. It’s actually in style. *gasp!*
2. What piece of clothing do you most want to acquire?
Do shoes count? ‘Cause if they do, then it’s a [...]

So how do you like

August 29th, 2002 · No Comments

So how do you like my attempt at school spirit? Since I’ve now moved
back to Provo (school starts Tuesday), and we just won our first
football game (42-21), and I needed to play around with the colors
anyway, I thought I’d show a bit of loyalty. So there you have it,
folks: a BYU blog. Navy blue, “caramel”, [...]

Okay, this
is just way too funny.
All the HP spoof posters on that site are good, but I must say that the
“Planet of the Snapes” one has got to be the very best. Unless it’s the
“Lord of the Snitch” one. . .

August 28th, 2002 · No Comments

You will notice that my template has reverted to the original one. That
is because #@(*% Blogger lost every single link, color, etc. from my
template. I went in there to make a minor change, didn’t notice that
all the HTML tags looked weird, and stupidly clicked on “save changes”.
When I went to “view web page” the page [...]

August 28th, 2002 · No Comments

My brother came home with a copy of Mozilla
1.1 today (actually, I guess that would be yesterday). I’ve been
getting really sick of having my Netscape 4.7 crash on me. Dad has a
copy of Netscape 6 that I could have loaded, but I have it on my laptop
and am so far relatively unimpressed. I’ve been wanting [...]

Well, it’s official. Over at the Sugar Quill message boards, the
Professors give out titles. I requested one, and it was granted.
I am now the Co-Queen of Procrastination.
Heehee.

August 26th, 2002 · No Comments

I’m about to enter the Palm Generation.
I’ve actually been thinking about it for quite some time; ever since my
brother upgraded from his Palm IIIe to a Sharp Zaurus (runs on
Linux–my brother is a geek) back in April. He offered to sell me his
old one–for $80. Now, Ben’s Palm included a keyboard and lots of
software, but [...]

August 23rd, 2002 · No Comments

The Friday Five was actually interesting this week, so I’m going to do
it.
1. What is your current occupation? Is this what you chose to be
doing at this point in your life? Why or why not?
Officially, I’m a student, but I also work at the BYU library as a
reference assistant. At this point, yeah, that’s what [...]

August 23rd, 2002 · No Comments

Well, yesterday was eventful. I woke up at 6:45, was ready to leave by
7:55, took by brother to the light rail station, drove to Provo, worked
from 9-6 with only a half-hour break, went to dinner, attended a class
taught by my uncle, went to my student apartment, helped set up the TV,
went to the grocery store [...]

August 22nd, 2002 · No Comments

I took a shower with a spider yesterday morning.
It’s not all that unusal for me to find spiders in the tub in the
morning. I live in the basement, and there are always spiders there.
Kind of like Harry–”Harry was used to spiders. There were a lot of
them in the cupboard under the stairs, and that’s where [...]
