10.5 took around an hour or so to install (erase and install) and everything seems nice and stable. I'm not sure im a huge fan of iPhoto 08 yet... its very different for me compared to 06... Give it time im sure ill come around ^_^
Now... installing Logic Pro suite...8 DVDS of data... 49GB odd... painful at best

With all this big pay increase, think you can pay for a round of drinks in here? ;D

Snow day today!
It dropped 41 degrees in 3 hours here.
It's not all good though, all the teachers assigned homework for the snow day............because this was the only time we pretty much KNEW we were going to have one.
Is it just me, or is that TOTALLY idiotic?
I mean come on, LUNAR ECLIPSES HAPPEN MORE OFTEN THAN SNOW DAYS AT OUR SCHOOL, YET THE FEW TIMES WE DO HAVE ONE, WE HAVE HOMEWORK?! Throw us a bone already! sheesh.
I dont care what they assign, im not doing it. I'll scramble to barely get it done during lunch tomorrow, i'm going to ENJOY my day off, it's not like they happen often.
I'll use the day to try to find out whats wrong with this iPod nano i just got, whenever its connected to my Mac nothing shows up and the screen is blank and it makes a really loud buzzing. Interesting. Anyone else had this happen?
And Honestly, do you think they should be giving out homework for a snow day?

I've always hated homework, and having it on a snowday/holiday sucks bad! It makes me even more angry.
As for me.. I'm going to visit a few friends tonight that I haven't seen in a while.. Probably kick back with a few brewskies and play some Xbox or whatever.
Also, I've started the beginning stages of creating my business plan for a company I've been wanting to start for a long time.
Here's the logo I've been working on so far. My company is going to be focusing mostly on photography, so I'm going to take the graphic design part out. But My business will be heavily relying on Photoshop usage as well. Doing touch ups and shoots for events and whatnot. Some feedback would be nice I created it from scratch! I think it's not bad for a self-taught CS2 user!

Ha, I missed another! I seem to excel at recycling topics.
Precisely why I don't watch it.
