I’ve been spending the past few days doing a whole lot of nothing, which is a great feeling after spending all of finals week studying and having back pain as a result of studying. I’ve just been playing The Sims 2, reading The Da Vinci Code, and writing in my journal. My gift from Trin arrived yesterday and included a bottle of Cherry Blossom lotion from Bath and Body Works as well as a pair of silver, spirally earrings from New York and Co; thanks, Trin!
I’ve been listening to Rammstein’s Rosenrot album a lot, too. My favorite songs so far are “Benzin,” “Wo bist du,” and “Te Quiero Puta!”, which Trin told me she hates but I find very catchy. It kind of reminds me of “Küss Mich” off of Sehnsucht.
My grades have all come in except for one, but it should be up later and I know what it is anyway. This has been my worst semester academically and while I’m not happy with this, I am okay with it because my GPA hasn’t dropped enough for me to lose any scholarships.
Ich brauche Zeit
Kein Heroin kein Alkohol kein Nikotin
Brauch keine Hilfe
Kein Koffein
Doch Dynamit und Terpentin
Ich brauche Öl für Gasolin
Explosiv wie Kerosin
Mit viel Oktan und frei von Blei
Einen Kraftstoff wieBenzin
Brauch keinen Freund
Kein Kokain
Brauch weder Arzt noch Medizin
Brauch keine Frau nur Vaselin
Etwas Nitroglyzerin
Ich brauche Geld für Gasolin
Explosiv wie Kerosin
Mit viel Oktan und frei von Blei
Einen Kraftstoff wieBenzin
Gib mir BenzinEs fließt durch meine Venen
Es schläft in meinen Tränen
Es läuft mir aus den Ohren
Herz und Nieren sind MotorenBenzin
Willst du dich von etwas trennen
dann musst du es verbrennen
Willst du es nie wieder sehen
lass es schwimmen in Benzin
Benzin
Ich brauch Benzin
Benzin
Gib mir Benzin
– “Benzin” by Rammstein

The lyrics to Benzin are so dumb! That’s mainly why I cannot stand it! And that Te quiero Puta or whatever the hell that is is AWFUL!
I, too, am waiting on one lousy grade. The worst one has come in, though, so I’m not too worried. But overall, I’m in the same situation – this semester has been true HELL! Next semester shall be much better…for more than one reason! :D

I’ve installed Ubuntu on my laptop. It’s ..working. I think. I am browsing the ‘net so that’s got to be a good sign. Anyway, I know you’re a big linux geek so I was wondering if you had any helpful links to get me started? “Completel n00b guide to Linux” would be helpful right now..
I want to set up Apache on this so I can edit my website offline as I do in Windows (with my lovely Abyss).. only it gave me an error that I can’t remember when I tried to install Apache with the Synaptic Package Manager thing and now I don’t know what to do.
Help me.. :(
The only Ubuntu Apache link I have is in German, unfortunately. However there’s the big Wiki on Ubuntu’s website (https://wiki.ubuntu.com) where you might find an answer.
http://ubuntuguide.org is also a good Ubuntu-specific place to start for the basics. Don’t know if there’s anything about Apache there, though.
I found the ubuntu wiki about 3 seconds after commenting, heh. Managed to install apache2, php and mysql.. and have them running (well, not so sure about mysql but I’ll sort that later.)
My only problem now is that the /var/www/ directory where my website files should theoretically go is only accessible by root, and I am not root. Or something. I tried changing the permissions and broke something, heh.
Poor Sarah.. I’m hijacking her post. :X
