There has been some added tension to the relationship between myself and Adobe. I spend nearly $400 to buy a product of theirs and they choose to not validate my serial number when I try to use it.
I'm gonna try a reinstall, and if that doesn't work, my last resort is to call the help desk and talk to some guys in India for who knows how long on my cell phone.:(

iMac set up.
Woo hoo! Got my iMac all set up! I couldn't get the iPod deal at the tech store, but I was able to get a free scanner/printer/copier deal instead, so that's cool too. I plan on buying an iPod Touch in the near future anyways.
Fortunately, the cool Tobey Maguireish guy at the tech store carried my iMac and printer outside of the school for me.:) The day before, he had noticed my headphones and said they looked more like $3000 headphones than $50 ones. He may have been flirting with me, but I'm not sure. Anyway, he seems cool, so I'd like to talk to him again sometime, maybe find out his name.
Now, all I need is the Adobe suite, and I'm all set!^_^

Settling in.
Haven't posted in a while, but I've been fairly busy with school and stuff.
NAIT is really cool. I've started getting used to the bussing and school schedule and the layout of the place. The comic shop and my singing studio are only about a 15 to 20 minute walk away.:) The sucky thing is that I still don't have heat or hot water. Thank god the girl's locker room is in the same hallway as my classroom. Hot showers are a luxury.
Hopefully, today is the day that I get a brand spanking new iMac and iPod Nano. We'll see...

Hectic, Busy Busy
I did nearly all of my moving this weekend. I've got everything except my tv and dvd player, my other dresser, some clothes and my long box of comics.
My room is set up and tidy, the kitchen in looking cleaner and smelling nicer than it did before and the bathroom still needs to be cleaned more. The bathtub is spotless, but I doubt I'll be using it soon. Did I mention there's no heat or hot water here?
Yeah... because of the previous tenants not paying the rent, the heat was all shut off, and could be this way until the new tenant comes in at the end of the month. The electricity might go at any time too.:/ Fingers crossed. I'm praying for an Indian summer.
Despite the lack of heat, I had quite a cozy night here. At least, I was when I was actually sleeping and not kept awake out of the fear of someone breaking in and trying to kill me. I kept the hallway light on, just in case.
I might not get any sleep tonight though, cause I'll be too nervous about tomorrow. I just hope I can learn my bus route easily.

Drumheller
A week ago, we took a day trip to Drumheller as our 1 vacationy thing this summer. We went to all the usual places we go. Reptile World, gift shops, the Royal Tyrell Museum and The Fossil Shop.
At the museum, they did a lot of cool redecorating. Before, when you entered the museum, there was a big spinning globe with a spotlight as the sun and a narration talking about the earth in space. Everyone used to just walk right by it, so they got rid of the whole thing. Now, when you come in, you're put in a Jurassic Park-esque rainforest with several Albertosaurus, complete with painted backgrounds and soundtrack. I tried to take some cool pictures of it. We'll see how they turn out.
I ended up coming home with a salad/pasta fork shaped like a velociraptor arm, a fossilized ammolite in a bit of rock, a fossilized shark tooth and a tiny stuffed utahraptor. I wanted to look for another opal necklace, as I had gotten my current one in Drumheller, but it's very rare to see opals set in jewelry, and the ones that are, are always $600.:/ The white opal in my necklace has cracked, which is common for opals. Maybe I'll have to buy a $50 opal and then take it to a jewlelers to have it made into a pendant.
