I kind of piggy-back off of other people's Wi-Fi. So, I just have to find a good spot where I won't need a password.

Trying to watch videos on YouTube SUCKS on dial-up... Takes forever to load.

You can get one though I was reading online that they discontinued making them back in 2007 or something... went to the store and asked about it and they didn't have any. So if I want one it would probably be eBay.

Figured I'd drop in and say hi, since it'll probably be as far as I can go as far as posting here for a little bit more

You basically have to pause the video, and go do something else while the loading bar is loading... and still it takes ages. I used to download 400 MB files on dialup... used to take about 24 hours straight.

When I had dial-up, it would play 2 seconds of a YouTube video and then a minute later, 2 more seconds, ect. And when I would wait a few minutes and then back it up to see if what it played so far would go faster, it just did what it did the first time again So, I just avoided going there until I got faster internet.

Yeah, basically if you want to watch a video on dial-up let the page load and don't leave it if you want to watch it again or you'll have to go through the process again.

When it comes to dial up, it's better not to do anything that requires Video, Java or anything too heavy, cant handle it Loading pages is bad enough.
Gosh i can't wait til i have broadband back!

I'd prefer to make some kind of film or video project about the relationship between women, the arts and disability, but I have to wait and see what the teacher says first. Maybe I can write a little script to go along with it, too!

Take-home exams are wonderful, but sometimes I think they make me lazier!

Aww i love your ideas! And i'm sure you'll have a wonderful future realizing your wishes! Would you like to make some movies in the future? What's gonna show exactly your project about relationship between women, the arts and disability?
How are you doing, btw?


Hey everyone!

I'm so buuuusy with this damn oral exam that i haven't so much time to get online! Luckily, i'll be back soon!

Johnnie, your icon is more than awesome!

Thanks, gotta love Avril.

I hate doing verbal presentations, I think that was one of my lower marks in Grade 9 English.
