Happy New Year... And more ramblings

[plemonic]

Hi. I've been gone for so long. I reinstalled Windows on my laptop a few months back and didn't bother to log in to Dreamwidth again, LOL. I kinda did have a problem with my laptop and I thought a fresh install would fix it. It didn't. Maybe because it's 6 years old. But it didn't interfere with my coding assignments (and any of my assignments) so, whatever. I was thinking of using a Linux distro, but that means I have to learn using it, and I don't really have time for that. Anyways, I digress.

Happy new year! It's too late to say it, I know, I just needed an excuse to say it. 2025... Oh. It's been 5 years after the Covid outbreak, haha. I hope this year will be nice to me. We recently got a new shelf and a new wardrobe for me, and they are bigger than the previous stuff we have. So I think we're on a good start.

2024 wasn't all that bad for me. I have Derick, had an experience working in an "office" for a month... Then what. Not much has happened, I think. I dunno. Can't remember. Oh, I got two rats last month! :D I wanted two females, but turns out one of them is a male... So now I put them in separate cages. Sad. My mom said that she wants another so they don't feel so alone in their cages. Hopefully we'll get them by the end of this week.

A few days ago was me and Derick's one year anniversary. He's the greatest thing that came into my life and I'm glad that we have each other. I love that dude to death. I don't even know what else to say. I'm really grateful that he's in my life. <3

Now... I'm currently learning JavaScript. I joined a free online bootcamp for front-end web development. Hopefully I can finish before the deadline (which is VERY SOON), but if I can't then... Meh. There are still a lot of resources to learn from. I'm waiting for my last semester's grades. Really hope that the result is decent. Don't even wanna think about it.

I'm getting too much into House, lately. Right now, I'm on season 5. Most of the times I wanna kill that dude. Most of the time, I always nod at everything he says and tell to myself that, "dude got a point." I cried at the end of season 4. Who the fuck wrote that episode. Every time I watch, I watch it for Robert Sean Leonard. Because he's a "puppyman" (my boyfriend said this.)

Mostly I feel sad. Sometimes even nothing. Sometimes suicidal. At this very moment? Hell, only if I know. I don't really know what's going on with me, LOL. I'm really getting into the "law of assumption" lately (I know this law for about 4 years now!), and it makes me feel good a little bit, so that's great I think. Man, I don't even know. Even when I'm suicidal I don't really wanna die. I just don't want to suffer in life. Am soooooo tired.

Saying that I want Donald Trump to die won't get me killed, right? Right?

Oddly enough, I actually started learning how to use a Debian computer. It sometimes has it's teething troubles for me (like one time I forgot my password and had to hack my way back into my own machine in order to change it...) however I do prefer it to Windows and Apple because at least you're not hounded with unnecessary shit.

I'm glad you're mostly doing okay.

Ouch, sounds like a nightmare... That's one of the things that I wanna avoid LOL. But you got a point, I also hate Windows' unnecessary softwares.

And thank you! Hope everything goes well for you :]

Honestly, that aside, using Debian has been mostly okay. You have to learn the right terminal codes and all that but it's actually not THAT bad.

I'm not going to insist on getting it but I don't mind it for what it is.

Yeahh I was actually thinking of using Ubuntu (have tried before for an assignment) and other distros and they were nice and more customizable unlike Windows. It's really not that bad, but I can't really imagine having to fix something in the terminal in a time crunch when I have more important things to do, y'know? LOL. I really do want to switch though, maybe soon.

Yeah, that's my key guiding element to if I recommend Linux to people.

Personally, I think it's interesting to learn the ins and outs. I want to be a librarian and so want to be at my best for hypothetical IT stuff that comes with the job. However if you have work/life balance which means all you want to do at the end of the day is rest up...I would say stick to Windows and Apple.
