Concentration

Every year when I set the end of course paper I always say I should have concentrated more on my reading and prepared better. Yet I do the same half-descent technique in studying my textbooks. I know it’s a half-descent one because it doesn’t pay that well – el7amdella I pass – but the amount of time I invest in reading properly should reward me much more better.
I never find the best way to motivate myself to tune up my stress level to the right frequency and get the best I could out of the slimy tissue that is filling my skull.
N82
I’ve managed to get an N82 phone instead of my old K8ooi SE last xmas. I’ve been mainly using it as a music player as I’ve lost my old iPod. The thing that I miss from my old iPod is when you accidentally unplug the headphones, the song pause automatically. Now, when you do the same thing with the N82, the song plays from the internal speakers and that is quite annoying if you were in a lecture or at work.
I’ve googled for a solution but I couldn’t find any. I guess I have to be careful and stop the song manually before I unplug the headphones.
hi5 plus

Today while we were having a revision lecture to sharpen up before our test, the tutor started talking about ethical cases and should we label patients as hi5 plus. Now, everyone in the room opened his mouth and had a question mark above his head.
WTF is hi5 plus ? ..
She was talking about HIV +’ve patients .. Human immunodeficiency virus positive patients! Where the V stands for 5 in Latin.

I know its kinda cool to use abbreviation showing how experienced you are and how deep your understanding of the information that you start having your own acronyms to each disease, but this is the cheesiest one I’ve known about yet.
Extra Storage

Since the day I’ve discovered the wonders of Torrents I started downloading TV series and unsubscribed my ntl for good. This lead to a huge shortage of space on my 160GB HD iMac. Currently I’ve only got 6GB of free space and thats a bit scary. I bought my self iomega 500GB “Desktop Hard Drive” and started transfering stuff to it. Guess How long it takes.

Let’s hope its done before my flight back to Kuwait tomorrow 4am!
P.S.: This is just the Movies folder. There is another 5GB worth of music.
xMass Shopping Fever!

I know what was wrong with me. Boredom and this xmass shopping fever going around here. I have decided. No new gadgets for me until I come back to Kuwait!
No ipod touch no iphone no nokia n95 8gb no nothing!
Bloggin’ mood

Anyone notice that whenever you are too busy to blog you find it the best time to do so?
I remember last year during my final exams I started bloggin here. Now,although the exams are far away, I don’t have anything to blog about. I guess school life is a bit boring and nothing exciting happens nowadays.
Anyways, the idea of having an iPod touch is hunting me back again. I pretty much crossed over the iPhone idea as it is pretty much useless and I am quite happy with my K800i.
I guess I’ll buy an iPod Touch for the sake of having a blogging material at least
P.S.: Anyone uses ZYB.Com ?
Positive Thinking
This Monday I’ll be presenting a topic for my paediatrics class about a protein metabolism disease (PKU). Basically you can’t eat any protein in your life other wise you will be mentally retarded.
It SUCKS, but look how positive thinking manipulated the situation to PKU Rocks!

P.S: This shot was taken by Razer v3xx. Not too bad with good lighting around!
Why I’de Like to Get an iPhone

I’ve bean craving for a new phone since summer and I had the Tyten II in mind as THE phone to get.
But HTC phones aren’t that good. They lag and are windows based (a.k.a endless crashes and restarts). So as far as I know, the iPhone:
1- Runs quite smoothly
2- Has a lot of hype around it = a lot of programs coming out
3- It looks nice
4- Lost my iPod
What draws me back though
1- Lack of GPS
2- Difficulties with sms/mms.
3- Not supporting windows pocketpc apps.
4- 2MB flash less camera.
The GPS isn’t really a big deal in Kuwait as most of modern cars has it and you almost know where to go most of the time, and once you do, you don’t need the GPS anymore.
Not being able to write sms in the traditional alphanumeric way (3arabi) along with the lack of switching off the auto-complete feature is a draw back. Not to mention the absence of forwarding sms ability and mms!
Two issues !
First .. What do you think about the new theme ?
Second .. I’ve lost my iPod and now I have two options .. either use my mobile (Razor V3xx/K800i) or my PSP to listen to mp3s .. What do you think people ?
