Wow

To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.

The Art of Happiness - according to Tim is to think happy, then you'll be happy. Sounds overly simple, but hey it works for me.

Starcraft!

OMG Starcraft....those were the days. Brings back the memories...zergling rushes and protoss carriers and nukes with ghosts...haha. Think i'll go install starcraft again..on my Macbook via Parallels.

The Evolution of Starcraft

You're Beautiful

I got a Macbook a few weeks ago and it is sweet. Good timing as my old PC desktop's hard drive died on me. Well actually it was more like I killed it when I was putting it into an external hard drive enclosure so I could use it on the Macbook. I lost so much important stuff, but luckily most of my photos and music was on another hard drive, and the photos I lost I can recover from other people. I checked out services to recover lost data from broken hard drives, and for hardware faults (as mine most probably is, as it doesn't even spin up), it costs at least $1500, up to $3500 to get the data off it. As important as my lost data may be, I not sure it is worth that much. Worse bit is, I don't even remember exactly what I lost on that hard drive...so can't judge if it is worth it. Anyway, back to Macbook...here's an ode to Mac Pro, but it could easily apply to my Macbook too :)

Heimlich

I just love Postsecret. I've posted about this site before (years ago?), but it's a new year so why not? That is my feeble excuse :) I nearly always find someone's secret that speaks to me, a secret that I ashamedly admit (to myself) to share. This week's update had one that I've definately felt before, though only briefly. Maybe not the Heimlich manoeuvre, but CPR. I'm so evil...



(edit: My desire to perform CPR is so I can perhaps save someone's life and appear a hero if only for a moment. Somebody told me they thought I wished to perform CPR just so I could put my lips on someone else's...so thought I'd clarify :).
