Untapped Potential

Potential that refuses to be tapped is potential that was never there to begin with.

Just because someone ignores you doesn't mean they aren't listening.

Trying to Find Storage Trunks

July 26th, 2009 | Posted by pftq in Blabberbox | #

  Right now, I just have too much stuff lying around, and I’m not usually one to throw things away.  Normally at this time of year, I’d be stuffing them into trunks or footlockers to store away, but I can’t seem to find any.

  I’ve checked online but the prices range from $120 upwards, not even including shipping.  Many of these don’t even have wheels or handles. -_- The ones I have currently I bought for $20 at Walmart so anything over $60 is already way out of my price range.  None of the Walmarts I visited nearby seem to sell trunks anymore though.

  If anyone knows any stores, local or online that sells these boxes for cheaper - please let me know.  Thanks

Remembering Everything You've Ever Learned

July 20th, 2009 | Posted by pftq in Blabberbox | #

  Yeah, I’m bored.  It’s summer time.  And I’m forgetting things.

  Searched the subject of memory on Google just for the heck of it and found an interesting article on how memory works, as well as how to improve and maximize it.  The header claims you can remember “everything” and I suppose if you keep at it long enough, it’s possible but I doubt I’ll get enough time to pursue that. :P

Good Enough

Saying something is good enough when it could be better is like cutting your life short because you're satisfied with what you've already experienced.

There doesn’t have to be a why, but there has to be a reason.

Looking for a Better CD Pen

July 3rd, 2009 | Posted by pftq in Blabberbox | #

  You’d think the hard part about burning CDs or DVDs is getting the software to burn right or the disc to play back.  After spending about just 5 minutes to finish off the DVD and burn it, the part that seems to take the longest is actually labeling the disc.  The darn pen won’t work on the disc even if I just used it less than a minute ago.

  Currently, I have 3 Sharpie CD pens on my desk, none of which appear to be working.  They’re of the twin-tip variety (using the fine tip so I can write more on the disc).  I know there’s ink in them because writing with the bold tips work just fine on any surface.  The worst part is the third pen just came from a fresh box, so it hasn’t been overused at all.

  I’ll probably go find another brand, but it seems like such a miniscule problem.  Normally, I’d search on Google to find out what’s a better option, but it doesn’t look like there are any reviews on a better pen (too small an issue).  You know all those tutorials about…[More]

Multitasking

Multitasking is the desperate attempt to be a part of everything and nothing at the same time.

Reading Memory

June 27th, 2009 | Posted by pftq in Blabberbox | #

  First Image of Memory Being Made - I completely mistook the headline for implying that memory can be translated to an image (photo, scan).  For a moment, I thought we’d actually be able to scan our minds soon and save images off of them. :P

  Guess that’s a little bit further in the future since they’re just now figuring out what memory in the brain even looks like (not the memory itself but the part of the brain that holds the memory - which isn’t really what the memory looks like but the memory container looks like… kinda like memory cards I guess - ack, confusing terms!).  I guess perhaps in the short term future, we can look forward more on learning to increase our memory or enhance.

  Maybe one day we can buy extra proteins to enlarge our memory capabilities! :D (though I wouldn’t want a bigger head as a result of it)

  Still,…[More]

Life is easy. It’s just when you do something you think is impossible - things get a lil’ hard.
