Wow, I don’t recall school being this busy last year! I’m sooo sorry about the 2 week delay from posting, but I am having a hard time even getting enough sleep with all that homework, scanning books, AND various PC problems. These problems aren’t much of what keeps me from writing, but all that scanning worksheets, printing homework, and scanning textbooks is keeping me up on almost everything personal. I know I’m lagging on the IFA report, but after my digital camera was stolen a while back, I had to take an old one – analogue. The pictures are still in development, but I PROMISE they will be on here as soon as I have them. All in all experiences on IFA: GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS!!! oh, and tec too, I suppose… There were however, WAY too many LCD/Plasma TVs around. It all seemed to drown in these big, silver black things. Things were very monotonous after a while. The expected real innovations in the Future Parc left you unsatisfied, and you would have to look carefully for the really interesting stuff. More on that later. For now, I will dwell on my school experiences after 2 weeks of heavy duty education work. I am writing this article in lunch break, in my school’s main library, as this is the first day that I don’t have to study my ass off in my little spare time.
Wow, Tablet PC computing has seriously changed my school routine! I now have a pretty full schedule, and on 2 of 5 days I have school from 8:00am to 4:00pm with no real lunch break. Before the second Executive Stylus arrive, my School Day looked something like this:
8:00 am-4:00 PM School
after a bike ride home
4:30-6:00 PM Homework
after that: Chill time (usually reading “Catcher in The Rye” for English classes)
7:30 pm Dinner
8:00 pm Shower and stuff
21:00 prepare school things
22:00 news, updates, emailing, trying to get in the mood to post
Now, with a Tablet PC, it looks more like this:
8:00-12:30 Classes
12:30-13:30 Break: emailing, Homework, Posting, Organizing
After School: More Homework, Studying, Preparation
18:00 Chill Time (Reading is already done) Soccer, Posting, emailing, IMing, News and Updates…
19:30 Dinner
20:00 Shower and stuff
21:00 Whatever I feel like.
The Gateway Convertible Tablet PC has really changed my day and how I use my time. There is always time to study and learn, as well as to take notes. There is however also a fair amount of time where I can do things that usually I couldn’t without my Tablet PC in school and as my primary Computer. Thank You Microsoft! I’ll be posting very soon, and the IFA article wont be in too far future either, I promise.
