Annihilation

I've planned to buy a new phone. Yepp it's true. My current phone has reached it years (3 ½ I think). I've noticed that sometimes I don't get the text messages people sent me or those I've sent to others and it's due to my... phone.  The phone also have a tendency of leaking electricity from the battery. Yeah I know often this happens to old mobile phones, however I bought a new battery for the phone. As the god of electricity hates me (yes he hates me) there wasn't any difference in the batteries performance. The SD memory card in the phone doesn't any more connect normally to any computer, which means that I can't download the pictures from my phone! My phonebook on the phone is also fucked up since it has saved some of my contacts on the internal phone memory and others on the SIM-card. Which means when I'm changing my phone to a new one I need to write down all of my contacts on the computer or on a sheet.  Annoying?? Extremely annoying!!!

Now comes the intresting part, which phone is "incoming"? One thing you need to know when I buy new electronic devices is that I try to have a decent phone which isn't already old after a month of two. Never mind, I've looked on the phones from Nokia, Sonyericsson, Samsung and Motorola. What I've noticed is the models from Samsung and Motorola S U C K S (Sorry for example Lisa I know you have Motorola) compared to Nokia and Sonyericsson. I searched on many phones from Nokia and Sonyercisson. From what I've read and seen Sonyericsson is definitely the brand which suits best to my demands and the model will soon be on the market. It's called K850i. To start with the appearance, there are two colours called: Luminous Green and Velvet Blue.

The phone has a camera of 5 megapixels and a function called BestPic which gives you the opportunity to take nine shots in quick succession. Keep the best picture from the nine. This function is one of my favorite. Another one is the fast internet connection called HSDPA. The function makes it possible to download big websites with many data. The phone also has a function were you can play music from the phone to headset over a wireless connection. I can't write all the specifications here you can check them all here Specs.

Hello everyone!

How are you doing?! I'm fine! My sister found a website called www.gelaskins.com, were you can find skins to your iPod and laptop. The website is REALLY cool you definitely need to check it out, so I link it again (unnecessary maybe...) www.gelaskins.com .... I first looked for my iPod video but then I saw that they also offer skins to your laptop, 15"... I began searching and I found out quite soon they have the same skins for iPods and laptops, which is really cool that too :p (Erik is Hyper at the moment). I looked at two which I liked quite much but there are many more that I also like, but you can only have one on your computer, unfortunately...

Here are the links for those I like "most"...

It just hit me as it normally does, that I still haven't decided what I would like to work with in the future or what program I would like to study or were I would like to study the program/education I don't know!!! For just an hour ago it snapped in my head and I started to do some googling around the net to read about what Universities have been recommended in its particularly area. When I googled I was typing, undergraduate programs/courses with a concentration on Mathematics, Physics, and Economics. Of course it was a result list of over millions of websites; I clicked myself to a website which had an article concerning the best economic courses on different Universities in Europe. London School of Economics Oxford University, Cambridge University, Tilburg University, Erasmus University of Rotterdam, University of Warwick and University of Toulouse 1. Many familiar and unknown Universities, I know to get to these Uni. you need to have a score above 40 in the IB program to stand against the world! Since that's what we are taking about... Getting a 40 score in IB is very difficult; you need to be a smart person and a person with its feet on the ground! Okey, I haven't read the entrance requirements, however in general it's like that!

In my case, until I haven't figured out what I would prefer studying and were, I need to achivie as high grades as I can. Since with high grades you can enter almost anywhere, without good grades you can't! Achieving high grades is a matter of course and also another thing I can't tell you, (Classified). Schools start in about five and a half weeks (counting the current one). I promised myself that I would improve; my hand writing, my reading speed, and my word vocabulary, I would start; reading more to hopefully become a more intellectual person! I haven't keept all of the promises, however some I have! =) Enough, I need to sleep, today I will listen to "Chariots of Fire - Yanni" when I go to bed.... Which is actually quite soon, almost, not far from NOW!

Today I received my monthly magazine "Illustrerande Vetenskap", as usually I read it out in just 30 minutes including the time it takes to check the websites. There was an article about the coming future bus, the Superbus. When I first heard the name I was thinking a normal SL bus however this one would be bigger (especially more wide). However when I read that the bus would be able to go up to 250 km/h I was chocked and understood that this wasn't a normal SL-bus in a bigger format. This was no normal bus or for that a normal transportation vehicle, when I later saw a model picture of how this bus would look like I was even more convinced that this was an extreme bus! It is a science team at the University in Delft in Holland which is developing this Superbus. It's supposed to have a special track were this bus will only travel at high-speed, up to 250 km/h. Roads will be built, from Amsterdam/Schiphol to Groningen/Leeuwarden the bus is supposed to travel on these roads and ONLY. The last picture shows the roads location in the country.

The Superbus has an advanced electronic technology, which reduces the risk for accidents very much. The bus would have radar which would scan the area of the road a couple hundred meters ahead, if any signs of an accident might occur the bus can make a hard application of the brakes and stop before reaching the object in the way. As you see bellow the Superbus had a design and aerodynamics as a Formula 1 car. Since the Superbus has the Formula 1 technology the bus has a high performance rate on the road. The Superbus is supposed to be a point-to-point transportation, and in order to make it happen an ordering system will be developed. This ordering system will make use of internet and SMS. The system will try to combine passengers with the same origin and destination as much as possible. This results in minimizing the number of stops needed during the trip.

The total costs of the design and development of an experimental demonstration vehicle is estimated to 8.5 million euro.

Is this a limousine or a bus? Or is it both in one ?

I just came in from "work" (22:40) been outside since 18:30 this evening working with our house. I was scraping the house and it was so hard to do it, my hands are hurting since you have to hold the scraper really hard while scraping! Ohh... To make it worse I woke at 8 this morning due to the sun light, that's the consequences' with having a big window, and you get more light into the room... So you can say that I'm really tired now! Before starting with the scraping I did actually windsurf for an hour or two and that was really nice though it didn't blow that much! My brother follow with me out to the water, he drove our little boat and took three pictures and made four short videos. It was very funny to see yourself on the video. One thing I noticed was that on the video it looks that you don't windsurf that fast, however in reality it feels much faster than it actually is. I have been thinking why it is like this, and I haven't yet come to any conclusion... (Stuff I think of, strange...)

Today I went into town and bought a new hard drive, the brand Iomega with 500 GB with free space (or actually 465 GB). I've been sitting and trying to make a recovery of my whole computer, it has taken a while around four hours of copying and extracting files to the new hard drive, but I finished for a little while. I'm considering going to bed but I'm kind of too tired to that so instead I will try to put up the three pictures from this afternoon.

Good Night!

I had the change to convince my brother to go out and windsurf, and it was a lot of fun seeing him doing it... Not because he fell, just because he was really good actually! He learned today how to gain wind as much as possible. However in the beginning he float into our neighbor's boat and got stuck! The board's fin got tangled in a line and he had to jump into the water. He thought it was cold, but he actually had a wetsuit. During the time he was windsurfing I was driving our small boat and taking some pictures of him while surfing, here are some pictures!

The picture of the moon (at the bottom) I took today, this night... The moon was extremely big than normal this night! (I'm sorry but my camera couldn't get a good picture of it.)

Good Night People =)
