What's everyone up to right now?

Because I no longer qualify for financial aid, I was looking into alternative ways to finance my education before I lost my fingers, and one of the books suggested a patchwork of scholarships. Good for you! Reading your posts, it's clear you have a fine mind, and no doubt deserve every help that you've gotten.

In my experience, scholarships are the most effective ways to fund an education. If you still intend to go to school and have the time, you could spend hours upon hours writing applications and essays to every scholarship you are eligible for, there are plenty online these days. I didn't do that when I graduated because I was honestly quite clueless about my options, which is why I'm doubly grateful for the ones I did receive.

And thank you, I do feel the pressure to work harder because of the scholarships.

Stripping my sister's second to last computer for parts. I recovered a new set of front panel hardware for testing — something I actually needed — a DVD burner, and a high quality KT133 MOBO+CPU+RAM (it was a top flight upgrade of my home rig once upon a time). The KT133 will make a nice bastion host or small server somewhere down the road. I also recovered a top of the line ATI All-In-Wonder video card, though it's AGP, so it's days are numbered (though my bedroom htpc uses AGP cards, so that will work out swell).

The piece de la resistance though was a top notch power supply; a Seasonic SI-12 series PSU. Apparently, at one time, I thought my sister was worthy of such hardware.

Anyway, I picked the bones clean and threw the rest in the trash. I'm taking a break, drinking coffee, and watching a blu-ray of looping videos of various high def filmed waterfalls.

Cipro to the rescue!

Fretting over whether to buy a condo I saw over the weekend. It needs work and I've got some code-compliance and inspection worries (the microwave/hood isn't vented properly and there's major condensation on the inside face of the living room window, plus the usual worry about dry rot and whatnot) but it's affordable for me, and I think I can do enough work to it to increase its value...

FUCK! Why am I so bad at making decisions?!?!
