Hobbies - Tracking Hurricanes has been one of my hobbies since I was a kid. I used to be afraid of storms that I would get sick and not want to do anything. Finally in 3rd grade I started studying my worst fear and learned a lot about weather, and it's forces. Hurricanes were my favorite out of them all, Tornadoes were scary to me, but I learned what needs to be in the area in order for one to form. When I was 15 I decided to start tracking them, it wasn't until 2004 when Hurricane Francis came through that I went out and stood in the Hurricane. As I did with Katrina, and Wilma, how I wish I was there at home when Ike hit my home town of Houston Texas.

Pocket God



Pocket God is actually an ok game to play when you’re bored. Basically you’re a God like being to Pygmies. You can strike them with lighting, throw them in the Volcano, or feed them to a shark. There are many ways to handle these little guys, and you know what they are some little troopers. No matter how bad it is they always come back for more.

The application is updated on a regular basis, each update brings something new, and a hint is in the Episode title. The most recent… Continue

The Plateau




This game starts out easy but gradually gets harder as the levels progress. I play this game to work my mind, it really gets you to thinking. Basically the game is trying to untangle the lines. No line should cross another, a good line goes green while a bad one goes red, and the orange lines are neutral. The game can get addicting, not as addicting as Sudoku but close, reminds of when I used to spend time trying to solve the Rubik’s Cube.

The game is $4.99 in the iTunes App… Continue

Arrange, Rearrange, Rearrange

There are times when I get tired of looking at things the way they are, and what I mean by that is the way my surroundings are setup. I think I get this from my mom, she would rearrange the living room and her bedroom whenever she got bored with it. Which would be like every couple of months, and I used to hate it because I would get used to it and BAM she’d change it up again.

Now today I find myself doing the same thing my mom used to do when I was young. I can’t keep my place one way for too… Continue

Classics

I have always loved the classics when it comes to books, in middle school I fell in love with “Treasure Island” which is also in the Classics library.

I do find myself reading these books when I just want to unwind and relax. I usually do my work on my site and keep up with everything. Ther… Continue

How to Turn off UAC in Windows Vista - The Easy Way



UAC was introduced in Windows Vista, and has proven to be a bit of an annoyance to some users. Prompting many to turn the feature off, which is very easy to do. Though I personally don’t recommend it. The best way would be to click on the Start orb, click the User picture, this takes you to user accounts, click turn UAC on or off, you will be prompted if UAC is turned on. Click continue, and deselect, click ok, and you will be asked to restart now, or later.

When you turn off… Continue

I'm fine... a little bored but I guess I can't complain.... I'm in my Business Technology class but I pretty much already know this stuff so I'm playing around on the computer wishing that I could be anywhere else on the planet because I just finished having one of those big break-up fights on Monday last week and the dude ain't here now to try and make friends with, so yeah other than that I'm good.
