What do educators have against technology?

I'm sooo tempted to bring my laptop everyday. But it's not small like ipods, cells or whatever. Hard to hide...and so d*mn heavy! Mine is about 6 lbs. To lug that around all day...not a happy prospective to look forward to. Except I really want to bring it to school! >.< Argh!

Wouldn't it be nice to have around? Notes and classwork could be typed up during class...though it may get noisy from the clacking keyboards. ^-^;; And you wouldn't need to line up to use the outdated SLOW computers in the library...

But! My genius of a brain also understand why. *sigh* We could be doing other things during class. Such as playing games, doing homework or surfing (NuTang!).

Schools officially prohibit cellphones now. What's the difference? Still the same old, same old.

^{"Here's a secret between you and me."} The teacher whispers with a playful smile. ^{"You can have your cellphones with you in here. Just keep it out of sight or I'll have to take it. The principal told me--well, all the teachers--so. But just between you and me, you can keep it on you."} He straightens and nods like he did a real favor. The students nod back with their eyebrows nonexistant against their hairline. And of course, they exchange looks with one another.

Saturday...I have dance class at 12pm. And it ends at about 7 pm. All day.
Usually I'd be uptown at the apartment and I'd take the A train down to my layout.
^-^ ^{get it?} Heh.

So...an uncle of mine tried to call from California the day-before-yesterday and couldn't get through because I was online. =P This is why I hate modems...why, oh, why can't I get a wireless signal here?
^{That's why I always wait until night falls and the sky is black before using her phoneline}, I thought darkly. Well, except for today. =D She's out taking a walk so I can do little blog now!

I have a problem. Several actually. ^-^;; I posted this on the forums, but I shall repeat here:

1.) Other people still have trouble with my layout...I believe it was ikimashokie that said my layout hates her. Majorly.
I have no trouble, but perhaps it's because my windows are never maximized?

2.) My gallery is off. So much that the first picture is gone and when you click to enlarge one of them, only half shows. XP Hmm...now I wonder about all my other pages...yikes.

THANK YOU, dave! For helping me fix the positioning of the modules. I really am clueless...

The-Muffin-Man: Yes, I agree. Teenagers are not to be trusted with an unguarded laptop. ^-^ But how are they going to get away with it anyway? 0.o It's huge and rarely anyone brings a bag big enough for it. The teachers would catch him in a flash! =P

lazypuppy: heh. See above. ^-^

randomjunk: *sgh* Lucky yours is so light...

crochetmama: Mine's getting slower and slower. Hmm, I'm thinking of getting an external hard drive. Should I?

laziewong: You're very welcome! I wish all schools were like yours. =D But how and what do they grade you on? 0.o

LostSoul13: Wow, every student? That's great! Except it's not us...=[

Kuri: Heh. You're baack! I love priveledges...
About the chinese--it's hard to sound it out by the english alphabet. Some spell it one way while others do it another. It all depends on the person, eh? I thought you meant 'you' with the sound as in 'me and YOU'.
I hope that made sense...^-^;;

Alright, I may or may not be able to go online tonight...or even tomorrow. I'm still staying over at my grandmother's so I have to wait and see if my uncle calls again.

Later.

--3.) Also, I've found that the time on all my entries are wrong...about an hour early...geez.

No, you have not gone into the future through this stupid entry.

I am only here to tell you of my newwwwww upcoming performance! Who wants to come visit me, eh? Eh? No one? Shucks, ya'll are just a bunch a LOSERS! No, no, I didn't mean that! Please don't kill me, noooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Eh-hem. Anyway, it will be the sixteenth and the seventeenth in NYC (where else?).

Maybe I'll include a picture...
----------------------------------------------------------

I forgot to explain the year thing, didn't I? Silly me.

It is the year 4706--year of the rat. Lunar New Year is this week. The Lunar New Year performance is in two weeks.

Enough info.? Ok, good night.

p.s. And hopefully, Masterpiece Theater! XD Almost forgot. Cross mah fingerrrrs!

It seems my stay at my gran's was very short-lived. Apparently, there will be people coming over sometime this week...er, month. I'm not sure because I don't have a lot, if any, details. Which occurs pretty often with my mother...>.>...

I am going straight home everyday this week to tidy up a bit. Then, I'll be stealing away in the dead of the night to accompany my gran on her journey to the land of Shut-Eye. Perhaps I will catch some ^zzzzz's with her...though I doubt it. Reason: the rehearsal on Sun. ended with me sleeping at home because it was too late to leave. >.<

Nice going, mother! Right on schedule, just like all your other ideas! =D NOT!

This also means less NuTang because:
1.) My mother goes straight to our computer the minute she gets home and never gets off. Seriously. She may doze for a bit in her chair, but she'll wake up after a
spell and continue typing or mousing away. She gets about 2 hours of sleep, 4 if she's lucky. I know, it will catch up to her in a *snaps*! Tell that to her.

2.) I'm not allowed on the internet this week. Not that she usually lets me on anyway...she just complains...=P Though I do manage to fit it in...^-^ heh.

3.) My laptop is at my gran's. I had lugged it there the night I was told to stay over. I am NOT going to bring it back just to find that I DO have time to go to Shut-Eye. Because if that happens, my mom won't let me bring it with me. Meaning no internet. And no NuTang. =[

I'm drowning. In the sea of psychological torment.

My, I love to be blunt, don't I? Hmm, I should break the habit...back to the story:

The Fates decided to dump my behind with a big bang into the real world. I don't know what I was dreaming about, but I woke and stomped outta bed in a grumpy mood. So it must've been good--happy. Or maybe it's just that it's 3:30 in the morning right now.

My mind is so slow...it's like I'm swimming against the tide back to innocence...where ignorance is bliss...
Where did I hear that before? Don't roll your eyes at me, someone had this in their entry...ah, yes. The Muffin Man Grr...how do you slip in my subconcious like that? Or maybe it's just cuz we think alike. Hooray for geniuses!

Am I making any sense? *sigh* I suppose I'm not HERE yet...part of me still wavers between the worlds. No, not the dead and the living. The Dream and the Real. Though the dead have a way to communicate through dreams, right? So they say...
So I'm still asleep enough to have profound thoughts reflecting upon my psyche.

Ok, now THAT was a loaded yet empty sentence. It was loaded with b.s. Meaningless because it doesn't say anything important. Nothing I didn't already say...

*grabs head with heads* Enough! Enough...ahhh, someone put me out of my intellectual misery. My thoughts are too far ahead of my poor swimming skills. In fact, I can't swim at all so we're back to the beginning. ^{I'm drowning. In the sea of psychological torment.}

I was trying to get more pps for something at NuStore. But now I forget. I have no idea what I was saving up for...XP

Hmm...remember how I started to make pluggies, but stopped because I kept forgetting? Well, I'm trying to decide whether I should buy it from NuStore. It should be automatic, right? Because if it isn't...need I finish? The same thing would happen again and it'd be useless.

I'm using our computer right now--HP Pavilion PC, not my laptop. On a modem. Not that bad here. Mybe it's because I'm uptown so-to-speak. More people, more 'popular' areas = better service? It's like that with my laptop. Wireless service uptown at home, but not downtown at my gran's.

The reason I'm using the pc: it seems that my mother can't get onto Yahoo! from here on AOL. So we traded. Except it's about 12:43 am so I prbably won't get to use my laptop tonight. Most Likely.

So => another Head's Up!
G'nite. Sweet dreams. Don't let the bedbugs bite.

--For those of you still having trouble viewing my site:
Try opening the window minimized. That way you can pull the edges outward to reveal the hidden parts.

This may not work for everyone...it's just a guess. I stumbled across this genius idea when I switched computers. As well as switching from using modem (AOL) back to wireless (IE).

I'm actually typing this on my laptop now. With an anoying 'valleygirl' voice bellowing into my ear in chinese. Yes, yes, mother-master.

By-the-way, it's now 1:15am and I have 516 pps. What should I get?
Oh, and I was meaning to respond to some comments...how about later? Forgive me. ^-^;; XP

Really bored(and hungry), nothing to say so here are two quizzes:

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free. In love, you feel the most alive when things are straight-forward, and you're told that you're loved. You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring. You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic. Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.

You Are a Mermaid

You are a total daydreamer, and people tend to think you're flakier than you actually are. While your head is often in the clouds, you'll always come back to earth to help someone in need. Beyond being a caring person, you are also very intelligent and rational. You understand the connections of the universe better than almost anyone else.

Don't forget to check out my previous entry. It's Heart-warming. ♥
