My Dad's Laptop
Today my brother and I went with my Dad to the local Best Buy and picked up a laptop for him. He got a nice 17" compaq with a 1.7Ghz processor, 3 GB ram, 160 GB hard disk, wifi, and windows vista.
Basically the only reason my dad wanted one was because he always sees me and my brother on the internet or whatever while watching tv or a movie. He wants to be able to do work and surf the internerd while watching tv basically. He is so high tech now...
My brother of course was trying to get him to buy the nicest laptop possible and all kinds of accessories. I was trying to find one that only had what he wanted and the sales person was trying to get him to upgrade to somewhere in between. Of course my dad didn't listen to his kids and instead went with what the sales person said. Oh well, it's his money not mine.
It's very funny watching him try to set it up. It's even funnier watching Andrew try and help him by telling him to set it all up the way Andrew wants it. They bicker like old people.

School is Dumb!
My school is retarded. I found out that I can look up my classes for next year to see what times they are at and generally plan my schedule. Unfortunately they have changed the names of the classes I'm supposed to take and the classes I've already taken.
So I had to find out which classes I've taken and what I'm supposed to take. After figuring this out by looking up the course codes for everything I've taken and the course calendar of what I'm supposed to take, I finally started to figure things out. There are still some retarded problems though.
First off, last year I dropped a course in first semester because I wasn't doing well and wanted to concentrate on my other classes. That meant that in second semester there was a class I couldn't take. I figured I'd just take the one class first semester this year and the other in second semester. No big. I think this strategy will still work.
Now, according to the course calendar there is a class in first semester that I'm supposed to take that I shouldn't be able to because I don't have the prereq. I tried looking it up and it isn't there. Instead there is a class that I'm supposed to take second semester instead. I figured they must have changed things and haven't updated the course calendar yet. So, my first semester should consist of 5 classes, 2 business classes, 1 gaming class, 1 class I'm supposed to take in second semester and the class I dropped last year.
Second semester is a little more screwy. I found the class that is supposed to be in first semester and I still won't be able to take it because I don't have the prereq. Unfortunately one of the other classes for second semester has a prereq of the class that is supposed to be in first semester but isn't. How the hell can they have a course with a prereq in the same semester as the prereq. This is so dumb. So now I have to e-mail my advisor and try and sort this all out. What a clusterf*ck.

Home Again
I'm back at my house with the rest of the week off. Kinda bored. Caitlin and I just went and watched the fireworks in Barrie. They were pretty pimp. There was a rediculous amount of people there.
We went and watched Get Smart earlier today. It is rather good. I think Steve Carell was excellent and Anne Hathaway was much better than I expected. I wasn't sure how she would do with the serious role of the ass-kicker. She handled it very well.
I read a review for "The Dark Knight" on IGN and they gave it 5 stars. You should really go check out everything they say about it because they just heap praise all over it. I'm hoping that doesn't raise my expectations too high.

It Turned Out Alright
So today turned out to not be so bad. The weather cleared up and I got to go swimming. We couldn't get the Jet-Ski to work for some reason but I was allowed to take the Sea-Doo out all by myself. It was awesome.
My cousin drove us into town on the boat and we got ice cream. It was awesome. Also I visited my other cousins girlfriend at work. She is super nice and I really like her. She came over after we finished dinner and everyone asked to go home and get her Wii. I said I'd go with her and she let me drive her Pontiac Solstice. It's so pimp. I want to steal it.
Everyone is playing Wii now and of course it's a blast when there is lots of people. We have been having issues with controlling connecting though. It turns out I'm the only one who knows how to connect a wii controller to a wii. Weird...

RAIN!?!?
So lots of rain has ruined my long weekend. How lame. I could have stayed home and hung out with my girlfriend but instead I'm stuck farting around on my computer because I can't go swimming.

Up North!
I have arrived at my Aunt and Uncles. We brought my sisters stupid dog and it keeps fighting with my Aunts dog. The weather is relatively nice here and I'm hoping the water is excellent too.
On the ride up I watched "A Goofy Movie" on my computer. It's not quite as good as I remember but it was still alright.
Diablo 3 was announced this weekend. I've never played the other Diablo games but I'm definitely considering playing this one. Blizzard knows there stuff when it comes to RPGs.
