The Cam is Back up

New York was great!
We went to:
Wall Street, The New York Stock Exchange, The Statue of Liberty, The United Nations, the subway, Times Square, and Ellis Island. We were on the Today show (in the crowd where Al Roker stands), saw ABC's headquarters (where they do Good Morning America), the Late Show with David Letterman building (they weren't taping that week), The Lion King on Broadway, Blast! (musical), MTV TRL building, ate at some good restraunts and.......we also went to Boston where we flew home.

WOW! internet connection problems from "you know where", with a tech support system from the same place! ("I'll need you to reinstall the Software." "Again!!!! I've done it three times!!!" "I cant escallate the case if you don't. I cant escallate the case if you don't. I cant escallate the case if you don't. I cant escallate the case if you don't. I cant escallate the case if you don't.) Arrrrrrrrggggg!!!!!!!

But now (after about TWO WEEKS!) its finnaly working again. It turned out we "weren't in a router" which was exactlly what we thought since we had the SAME problem when we first set this thing up! (which also took hours of being on hold with that beautiful hold music, yeah right)

Much has been going on: 2 days ago I went on a feild trip with Laraza 2 to Boomtown and the Imax; they closed the highway while we were comming back and it took us maybe an extra hour or two to get home at, ummm... maybe 7:30, all while I had an essay to write!

The DSL at mom's house is down due to mysterious reasons (that's why the cam isn't working and also why I haven't said anything on this thing for a while)

New York, New York!!! here we go! Sunday my mom and I are leaving on a plane and staying over Easter week. I'll record everything we do and post it when we get back.

Major Computer Malfunctions...I formatted the disk (not on this computer) and can't seem to get windows setup to recognize or work with the disk (Linux install and FDISK both work, but windows dosen't) and I don't know why!

OK, It's filmed! It went fairly smoothly (many takes on a few parts though). Now on to editing, which will happen probably Tuesday after school.

Past the 800 mark!! 799 days left until graduation! -and counting
why? Because I can!

We, the film club, did a "rehersal" for the Optical Pleasure Film Festival after school today. Some, if not all, of the filming will take place tommorow. We're going to show "Poolhouse" by Breen, Baker, and Mike, "Dream" by Joe, "Behind the Band: The Phsyco Dust Monkeys" (or something like that) by Dusty, and an animation by Marcus; maybe some others too.
