As for how I feel…

I’ve actually been kind of in depressed state these past couple of days because the GUIDON has yet again rejected me. I don’t know, I don’t quite understand anymore. I sometimes ask myself if I really don’t have any skill in this and give it up all at once (I know a couple of people who’d like to buy this domain for one). For almost a year I was lead to believe that I am in some sense good enough at what I do but now that’s different?

I sort of don’t want to give up at it yet, I still have a chance although slim by meeting the executive editors tomorrow but, is it still worth it?

Yep I decided to go with a name that wasn’t on my original intended listof names. I named my macbook after Anita King from Read or Die. I got the idea of calling her that because everyone really likes “Maggie” but it sort of sounded like an instant noodle brand which somehow made me think of Read or Die (Maggie Mui). Somehow along the way it became Anita.

I’m still having trouble using the internet though, specially at school They used to configure the wifi settings for you but now it’s self service and it’s quite confusing since I’m still a mac newbie and the instructions mostly refer to mac os x tiger and not leopard. It’s a little easier at home even if we don’t have wifi. I did have to get an 10 meter phone chord so I could get online  and browse from the privacy of my room. It’s only temporary until I save enough money for a wifi router.

Having a laptop did make my work life so much easier this week! I was able to get a copy of Adobe Design Suite from my boss, Mike, at Wowenkho studios and resume on the work I was doing. I still haven’t moved most of my documents from my old pc (Lisa) but somehow having a mac makes me hate having to sit in front of that old thing.
