3.nothing

So my iPod is empty. Well, not completely empty. My three contacts stored in it are still there. Yaaay. What about my music? My apps? My videos? Gone.

You know what the worst part is? Some of that was bought from iTunes, which iTunes won't recognize unless I transferred the purchase made on the iPod onto the computer and back. Unfortunately, I didn't trust my several computers that I pulled my iPod's library together from and therefore none of my apps or music is really anywhere except for lost.

But at least 3.0 is great.

Yeah.

On a lighter note, Apple went crazy on Monday. They decided that by updating just a few specs on their aluminum clad MacBook and adding the three vinyl letter "P", "r", and "o", that they could push them into their MacBook Pro series. Honestly, who do they think they're kidding? At least it came with price cuts. However that leaves their white polycarbonate MacBook alone. Meh, probably not for long.

Snow Leopard comes out in September! Whoot! So that means that by the time I'm supposed to get my MacBook (perhaps Pro?) in November, it'll have Snow Leopard on it. That, actually, is a pretty exciting thought.

Yep. It's official. I'm insane.

Future in a Nutshell

Hello! Blue Powerblogger here! And I am ending the week off on a definitive note!



So this may be strange, but I know almost exactly what I want to do in the future. Unfortunatley, I know that my plans now may very easily change between now and then, but this is how I envision it...



I will graduate high school with a 4.3 weighted GPA or higher. I will be accepted to Georgia Tech on a scholarship. There, I will major in residential architecture. I will live in a dorm the first two years, and in an apartment the last two. I will join a sorority (a good, reputable one, with no records of heavy drinking, partying, or questionable merits). I will make many friends but keep in touch with my high school ones, of course. I will drive a fuel-efficient car and work for an intern for an architecture firm in Atlanta. I will graduate with high honors.



Then, I will travel to France for a year and live in a 625 square foot house. Call it an architectual and design challenge, if you will. I will study architectural history and innovation. Then, I will return to the states, get a job in an architecture firm, and hopefully one day open my own business. I will find the love of my life, marry at Brasstown Valley, have three children: Amelie, Eline, and Madeline for girls and Christian, Elijah, and Lucas for boys. We will attend church regularly and I will raise good Christian children. We will have a pet flying squirrel, I will not drive a van, and I will certainly not wear mom jeans. I will become a highly sought after architect in the Atlanta area for my unique, space saving designs, and I will make a fair amount of money. We will vacation in my family mountain house in North Georgia with all of my cousins. I will grow old in happiness and, with any luck, live well into my eighties or nineties.We will live a life that will certainly have its hardships, but it will be one thats worth living.



And June, I will do some singing on the side.



And one day I plan on going to the Olympics, just to watch Michael Phelps.
