I might not be that active for a while. i need....i dont know what i need to be honest.

Anyway. if anyone desperately wants to know whats up they can ask. excuse me if i'm a little subdued though.

Agreed. If you need support (or someone to vent to, PM's work) we are usually available.

Sorry to hear things aren't going well, but it'll pick up in the end.
If you want to talk, you know where the PM button is. :)

Get your johnson stuck in your fly? :P
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

The iphone's been successful, but it's not cornering the market, from what I've heard. It's a relative newcomer to the smartphone business. Plus, the fact that the Blackberry Storm is on Verizon is a HUGE plus. Verizon's got the best network, hands down. AT&T (which you must use with iphones) deserve praise for building an entirely new 3G network as part of their agreement with Apple, but the network isn't that great, to be honest. It works 99% of the time, but it can't even touch Verizon's network.

I've recently realized that I have about 2 or 3 weeks to decide whether I get a doctorate or not. If not, then I've gotta find me a job come May. If so, I've gotta move my ass applying to schools, and hope to get a fellowship. On top of all the other responsibility right now, this is pretty overwhelming. But it's kindof exciting to be close to FINALLY knowing what I'll be doing for the long haul.

Well, as long as it's nothing too serious.

-sigh-

well. Since i've hinted toward it, but not said anything i might as well say it.

Basically, Me and Tim have gone a fair bit further than maybe we should of. And, yes i mean all the way. All fine and dandy, protected w/e you care to mention. Put it simply, my parents found out by reading my phone while i was in Holland.

Ah, I see. I imagine they were far from pleased.

Well, if that's the case, then there's really nothing that can be done. It just happened. There's nothing they can do to change that, and in the end they're just going to have to accept it happened and get on with life.

Oh, and a bit of advice: start deleting your texts. :|

Indeed. they have initiated a new program of rules and regulations, I am having my day timetabled to restrict my computer access, and all my computer actions are now being monitored via a relatively expensive security program that screen shots everything i do.

At the moment i am grounded, meaning i am unable to leave the house without supervision, and i have my mobile phone confiscated until friday.
