Move along, nothing to read

Prozzäk - Be As

Julie wants to get out of town
She needs to settle down
Move to a place where no one knows her
Lisa just had to get away
Nothing could make her stay
Tired of living under cover

Everybody knows somebody trying to get free

Be as white as you want to
Be as black as you want to
Be as brown as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you

Be as straight as you want to
Be as gay as you want to
You can wait if you want to
We all need something to hold on to

And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be

Daniel moved to another school
Alliances can be cruel
When you're alone without nobody

Michael begged Jen to take a stand
And fight for the love they had
But she'd rather deal with being lonely

Everybody's got somebody telling them what to be

Chorus

And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be

Na na na na na na...
And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be

Chorus

Be as shy as you want to
Be as loud as you want to
Be as small as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you

Be as thin as you want to
Be as fat as you want to
Be as short as you want to
We all need someone to hold on to

Green Day - Time Of Your Life

Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.

It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredicatable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs
and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf
of good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories
and dead skin on trial.

For what it's worth,
it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredicatable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

MegaTokyo. is a wonderful comic, but a lot of people have some difficulty following the plotlines.

What is it that so many people cannot type accented characters in HTML and ICQ ? It totally irks me when people are trying to write something, and leave out the accents that are critical for the meaning of the word. English itself hardly has any accents, but with words from other langauges, the accents are critical.

In spanish:
Usted está comiendo - You are eating
Usted esta comiendo - You this eating

Firstly, to do accents on words in ICQ:
ê ô î â û : ctrl-shift-6 then the letter
ë ö ï ä ü : ctrl-; then the letter
é ó í á ú : ctrl-’ then the letter
Ê Ô Î Â Û : ctrl-shift-6 then shift-letter
Ë Ö Ï Ä Ü : ctrl-; then shift-letter
É Ó Í Á Ú : ctrl-' then shift-letter

My brain is like soup and I'm really tired for some reason. I got myself the 128Mb CompactFlash card for the camera. It was good that I tested it right there and then, as the original one they gave me didn't work, so I exchanged it for one that did work.

Yesterday's photojournal is postponed until I'm ready so there now, ditto for today's edition.

Starting yesterday, I have a digital camera from TechBC until the 3rd of July. It is a Kodak DC3400, with an 8MB CompactFlash card. I've started to take a lot of pictures with it, as it is a fairly nice camera (2 MegaPixels).

I intend to take pictures every day, and document some parts of my day as I go. Some of the pictures may seem totally out of place or useless, but I was trying to capture something in each of them. I haven't deleted any images because they were out of focus or anything, rather I have just left all of them in place as is.

Tommorow morning I am going to buy a 128Mb CompactFlash card to use with the camera, so I can get at least 500 pictures on before running out of space. The 128Mb card is only $5 more than the 64Mb card anyway, and $15 more than the 32Mb card, so it's a really good deal.

The next posting will be about the first documented day. All of the days will be on the this sub-page of my photo gallery.

you live in a mansion! rich! you have it all, glamour money, fashion. dont' let it shelter you from the real world and you'll be fine.
where do you LIVE?
