The events of one night:
I realized I had a backdoor trojan virus on my computer, this means a hacker can find that backdoor and play with whatever they want to on my system. Internet connections, passwords, files, etc.
I grabbed a Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 cd and tried installing. Went through the nerve racking process of formatting all the partitions, creating new ones, researching what the 8 mbs of “unpartitioned space” was, and finnally, rebooting and going with it graphically. It began leading me through the installation of the system, And then you know what?! Continue reading ‘Cathartic experiences of a geek.’
It started out as a normal day…wake up….brush teeth… eat yumynis…home school………when suddenly, I went to the smallish store to buy some food, and the lady who checks stuff out gave me a map that had all the best hikes around Asturias! But still…I thought it was a normal day, and it was. (If you have a spectacular day every day, then you count spectacular as normal and normal as spectacular)
“The word random is used to express lack of order, purpose, cause, or predictability in non-scientific parlance. A random process is a repeating process whose outcomes follow no describable deterministic pattern, but follow a probability distribution.” -a disputed wiki article
My trek began as I searched for a deserted town that was said to be up on the hill behind our apartment in Collanzo, but afterwards I figured out that I was really on the wrong mountain all the time. I took my bike and rode until I met the bottom of the hill, then I pushed my bike back up. When I was half way up, some Spaniard boys my age asked if I wanted to play soccer, “Qiueres jugar futbol con nosotros?”. I said yes. 
Mr. Bock told me he was looking forward to seeing me juggle on the giraffe unicycle he had let me barrow. I didn’t know how to juggle but my brother does and I started practicing. After about three days of practice I got up to 400 throws before dropping one of the three balls. Now I’m learning how to do some tricks like my brother does. I still can’t juggle on the unicycle very much but I’m working on it.
