project: I purposely took a break for the holidays, which worked out well because I got sick. I had a cold for about two weeks and an ugly crusty case of pink eye. I missed my paid vacation, but hey, I can't win it all. I had a nice Christmas Eve, Christmas day, and New Year's Eve with my family. Then, Panama's laws decided it would be in my best interest to run to Costa Rica and come back to renew my visa. After an 18 hour bus ride, I spent 20 hours in San Jose, then a 16 hour bus ride back to Panama. More about that later. That deserves its own entry. Interviews will re-commence next week!
technologically, I have a new computer! I was trying to wait until I got to the US but my computer became worse and worse until the desktop stopped loading and I had to manually open programs (ctl+atl+delete, new task, find program in the menu). As you might imagine it was difficult and annoying to really get anything accomplished. Thank God for my external harddrive so I was at least mentally at ease. I know all of my files are safe.
I decided on the Asus ul-50vt. Really I wanted the ul-80vt because it is a little smaller, but it was also more expensive. No point in paying more for less. So far, so good. (it has been less than 24 hours). Now I have to learn all of the ins and outs of windows 7!
good people of the world, please do not steal my laptop. Thank you.
