Fan photos and studies and so forth

What's up, eh?
Not much, eh.
Well, first things first, I'd say, last wednesday I went to a place called "proxxi" that is in central Stockholm, and saw (and discussed..) the third Star Wars film. What I was wondering mostly about what the (other) geeks/nerds called "negative armour" which they said that the Stormtroopers wore. The thing is that the (Imperial) Stormtroopers die just by being hit by a rock or having a stick poked at them, so their armour is probably negative and instead of protecting them, they're hurt even more than they would be without the armour. Anyway we also did go to my cousin (Martin) this weekend to congratulate him on his 17th birthday, and he got a punching bag and boxing gloves.

About my studies then?
They are going just fine, it seems.
We've got some new members for our "group" that are working with projects and so forth, and they are very friendly, so I'll probably join them to the student's pub this week, to socialise and so. Actually the studies are going much easier now, since I've started this new subject (Human-Computer Interaction) which is much more exciting than any of the previous subjects.

About my salvation and so forth then?
It's going alright with that as well, I think, since I'm feeling that the (Roman-Catholic) Church is right for me, and I know that they are preaching the Truth, and I want to be a part of it.
I'm probably going to be "in" the Church "for real" sometimes during Easter.
I'm still not sure what my calling in this life is though, but I am hoping and praying that I will find out.

Here's the promised "fan photos" by the way (yes, my sister insisted in taking these photographs, not my idea..);

Studies, cream bun, chihuahua and computer solution

Well, hello everyone,
so, yes, I know, I haven't been writing in quite a while, but I'm also been quite busy you see, mostly with studies, and also, I have had trouble finding fun things or queer things or whatever you'd like to call it, to write about. Anyway, I still have things to study, actually I have so much to study so I can't stop thinking about BMM (Business Motivation Model) for a second.

Oh well, what's up then?
My studies are going alright, I hope.
Today I ate a cream bun, with the necessary bowl of warm milk, and it was de-li-cious!









This thursday we also had another rottweiler and a cute chihuahua from a friend of my grandmother here, and the chihuahua explored my desk;

















Also, by request from viking, here's the computer solution that grandma came up with;

8 random facts/habits

Well, as I've been tagged by Ivar, I guess I have to do this silly thing now :-P
I am to list 8 random facts/habits about myself, and then tag 8 people, and informing them by posting a comment on their web log.

1. I'm donating blood
2. My favourite film is "Shaun of the dead"
3. I'm very fond of ties
4. I think I work better with a tie on me
5. I have to have a watch on me, to see what time it is, otherwise I'll be stressed
6. I can't skip brushing my teeth (I worry sick about it if I don't do that)
7. I've spilled a glass of milk over my laptop - and it's still working
8. I like photopgraphing nature scenes

Well, I know I should be tagging eight people, but like Ivar, I can't come up with that a many :-P
I tag Bob, uhm, and, well, noone else I guess, hehe...

Christmas and studies

Well, doesn't i feel as if Christmas is all around us now?
The stores wants us to feel that way anyways, and I'm not the one who's complaining about it, since Christmas is my favourite time of the year.
The only thing that I'm waiting for now is the snow.
There has been some snow but it's all gone now, maybe thanks to the Greenhouse effect, wjo knows, but it's much warmer than it should be this time of the year.

Oh well, about my studies then.
I'm still struggling with the fact that the subject I'm studying isn't as fun or jolly (gay?) that I had hoped for.
Anyway, this is my photograph on my student ID, I guess I'll laugh at in the future.

Things that have happened

Yes, I'm very well aware that I haven't been writing on my web log for quite a while now, but I've been quite busy with living my life and so forth oh, and of course postinf things on the DCF-forum :-P). So, what has happened in my life then? Well, I have been told that I can re-do my examination in ITO (Information Technology in Organisations) so about that I'm quite happy, altough I'm not the least interested in the subject.

I've also got the news that I'll go to Australia to WYD 2008!
I am so happy about that actually, and it's truly a dream coming true!
I truly hope that I'll be able to visit some museums, since I truly love museums.

Also, there has been a new debate article (in swedish) about the new christian party that is soon to be established here in Sweden, and it arrived just before I was thinking about giving up my hope about it.

Halloween 2007

Hello everyone,
well I know, I haven't posted the photographs from the halloween-party I had this year (unfortunately it was just me and Bob out there, but we had a great time anyway :-)..).
The party was alright, but maybe not so much of a party as one might think, since we just ate food and snacks and watched a few films (mostly monster classics, such as "Frankenstein's monster", "Creature from the black lagoon", "Dracula" and so forth.).
I think we both (me and Bob) can agree that "The Phantom of the Opera" was the best film.

Oh, and for next year, I must make sure to get the invitations out earlier, otherwise it'll probably just be me and Bob again...

It's a little bit of ditt...

...and a little bit of datt.
Well, I don't know what to write, I'm actually very concerned about me not learning enough to truly understand UML (Unified Modelling Language) but I truly hope that I will understand it fully soon. I will try my best to do some studies this evening as well as tomorrow, and I'll probably visit a catholic bookstore tomorrow as well, to drive away demons and so with the power of the cross, hehe..

...and here's also a picture of me, free of charge, hehe (as always then XD).

Well, I also hope that this weekend will be quite free from homework, so I and Bob can have a jolly time playing videogames, watching some films (I hope to see "Chicken Little" again) and so forth.

New "manga" drawing!

Well, I know, I haven't been drawing for a long while now, but I did draw this during the october month and finished it all off today.

It's supposed to be about when Jesus comes back to earth, and we all get judged.

Another day...

Well, here goes, what can I say?
I have celebrated my father's birthday (although it was last week) today, and I have ordered a new harddrive for the computer back home (where I live with my grandparents) and new RAM for my laptop. I truly hope that everything will work out fine with these technical things.

I have celebrated Halloween, but unfortunately it was "only" my friend Bob who came and visited, but next year I truly have to be prepared earlier so more people can come.

I also foun a prayer before logging on to the Internet, which I have printed out and that is taped to my laptop, and was taped to the family computer as well until a few minutes ago when my fathersaid that he refused to have a such a thing where he could see it.

So I guess it will take a long time before I'll save dad.

I will pray for his salvation right away though.

May God be with us all.

Pax et Bonum.

Hallooween!

Well, soon it is this time at the year when it's okay for a guy to wear make-up.
I am, of course, referring to the celebrations of Halloween.
I will celebrate it with my grandparents, maybe my sister as well, and my friend Bob.
We will probably watch some horror films since there is a lot of that stuff on the telly, but I also have a collection of all the classics, which I bought on the Helsinki-cruise with my classmates.

Anyway, for those wondering about my examination(s), I think that it went better than I had expected. I don't know how well I got on the ITO (IT in Organisations) but in ITP (IT for Personal use) I got C (the grading system is similar to the American grading system).

Have a spooooky Hallooween!

Examination tomorrow...

Well, since I haven't written here for quite a while, I thought that I'd should take the oppurtunity to do it now, altough I don't really have the time to do so.
Well, I've been trying to study as well as I've been able to, for almost all of this week, and of course, I did try to study as well as I could the week before that, and the week before that...

I truly need to organize my life a bit...
Well, I also got in contact with a bloke from Opus Dei here in Sweden, and since I'm interested in joining it, we've had som interesting discussions I think.

By the way, some information about my day so far;
I got up at about 09:40.
I have eaten a bowl of sour milk with a sliced banana, and "Oatmeal Squares", or in plain Swedish, "Havre Fras".
I have eaten two sandwiches with Nutella.
I am now sitting and trying to study for tomorrow's examination.

Concentration partly accomplished

Well, yesterday I "at least" worked from 16:00 to about 23:00 on our project.
It was very nice to know that one did something very good for the group, and I think that I will, as a consequence, grow as a human being by being more involved in more sincere things, whatever it might be.

Right now, I would like to send my prayers to the PiS (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość, or simply Law and Justice in English) political party in Poland.
They are on the right track, fighting for the values of the Bible, and I wish you all luck in building a true strong and conservative society.

Concentration

Well, one of the things I hate about myself is my inability to concentrate on one task at a time sometimes. Yesterday I managed to do some work for school on the computer, but it took far too much time, since I found myself chatting and surfing around at websites that I shouldn't read, since I do not have that sort of time. There's only about a week left before the big test about IT in Organisations now..

I like me...

EDIT: Sorry, I should have written "to list seven things that I like about myself"
Apparently, Ivar has tagged me and "forced" me to do this silly thing - to list all things that I like about myself (argh!).

Well, I better start right now;

1. I like that I am not afraid to change my views when I am wrong.
2. I like that I won't back down when I know I'm right.
3. I like that I have found the Truth.
4. I like that I am trying to love people, no matter how they are.
5. I like that I am studying computer- and systems science at the university.
6. I like that I am able to enjoy the nature.
7. I like that I am interested in politics.

Well, then it's my turn to "force" some people to write what they like about themselves :-P
I tag Bob and Joakim.

Gmail: another extra megabyte every 11th minute?

Well, I've noticed that Google has increased the speed in which they increase my Gmail account's available memory. Google now gives me another megabyte about every 11th minute or so, which means about 130 or so extra megabyte per day (24 hours).

Well, that's very good news, I think, but what about increasing my Picasaweb album instead, so I don't have to worry about posting to many pictures here on Blogger? :-P

But thank you anyway Google ;-)
Having lots of memory in my inbox is always nice, altough AOL and Yahoo is offering unlimited storage now...

Another day in paradise, eh?

Well, today I've been to Church, but I have also been able to clear up some space on my PC, so now I have the very exhilarating enormous number of megabytes that are free to use up at about 700...
No, that's not much at all, I know.
But it's enough so some programs will run without any trouble and so forth, but it took some hard work, and I'm glad that I don't have to go through all the hassle to change hard drive (plus the fact that a new one will cost about 50 euros...) and install Windows XP (my Nintendo wi-fi usb-thingie doesn't work with Vista..) and all other things related to it.
...and thinking about it, I'd much rather have a new PC, since this old one can't run some programs very well that I'd like to try out more (Joost for example).

Sometimes I truly wonder what lies ahead for me.
Things were much easier in upper secondary school.

(I took the photograph 10Th June 2007)

The test

Well, as you might have understood from the previous post, today was the big D-day.
Or Judgement Day.
I had my knowledge tested to the limits by an incredible test, by the prophets of my course, "Information Technology for Private usage" (freely translated) - ITP that is.

Well, the test did turn out not to be such a huge challenge as I was afraid that it would be.
But some questions were a little bit more tricky than the other ones, and I'm afraid that might be the difference for me to get a Fx (almost the worst grade, F is worse though) or an A or B (the best grade is, of course, A)...

So, well, what other things has happened today?
Not that much actually, I ate my lunch while on the train (two sandwiches) and after the test I went back to my municipality and had a great Friday-dinner at a Chinese restaurant :-D.
This evening we've also seen the film "Wild Hogs", which I liked watching very much.
It seems to lack a little bit of that "edge" that I find in comedy films by Jim Carrey for example.
But it was worth seeing, and my grandpa seemed to like it as well (I'm not sure about my grandmother, she haven't seemed to be that glad at all this evening..).

For example...

...I've tried to learn the Fetch/Execute cycle (Instruction Fetch (IF), Instruction Decode (ID), Data Fetch (DF), Instruction Execution (EX) and Result Return (RR)), CMYK (Cyan Magenta Yellow Key), ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit, a subsystem of a computer that performs the operations of an instruction.), TCP ("connection oriented" - Transmission Control Protocol), IP ("forwarding" and "best effort"), UDP ("connectionless"), Ray Kurzweil (inventor of the first OCR (Optical Character Recognition) unit for the benefit of blind people.

This was just an example of things I have to remember for tomorrow's test...

Test tomorrow...

Well, I am very, very nervous, since this will be my first test ever during my University studies.
I truly hope that I have overestimated the task, and that the questions won't be so difficult as I do imagine them to be, but I'm quite sure that my wish won't come true.
There is quite an impossibility to learn the whole book, consisting of about 800 pages, plus all notes from lectures, and the material from the lecturers, as well as other material that the lecturers have referred to..

Well, good night, and I may only hope that I will have the power to do well on tomorrow's test.

More specific nerd-test

Well, I found a more specific nerd-test at Ivar's blog, and thought I'd publish the results.



As you see, I'm not near the results of Mr Ivar-Mega-Dorky-Nerd-King :-P
(Strangely, I am jealous...)
