XD I only remembered that I was supposed to do April by pure chance - I accidentally clicked the wrong topic and looked in the MOTM discussion thread for March where people had posted the list. o_O;; I never usually checked in there because it would just be posts like "Yay! I've got (#) of votes! *dances*" or something like that. XD;
Haha! thats funny! XD i only remember because i looked at the calender and realized that its almost June XD :P well i get out of school on June 4 at probably noon cause that days a half day YAY AND BOO BUDGET CUTS!! XD

You get out during June 4th? I get out of school on June 3rd. :P Last year we got out at like 11 AM, but I think it will be a full day this year, ending at 3:30 AM, like any other regular school day. I hope we get out early though. On that day, I'm gonna come on here and say something like, "SUMMER VACATION STARTED TODAY!!!", or something like that. :P

My mom picked up a working laptop today at a yard sale for $5...the problem is, IT HAS WINDOWS 3.1! V________V I made a backup disk of Windows 98 on a floppy but I'm not able to upload it to 3.1 correctly...can anyone tell me how? All I really want is Microsoft Word so I can have a portable typing device but it seems I'm not able to do it on my own...please somebody help >_<

June 3rd and 4th! I get out June 22nd. It sucks. It was supposed to be June 19th but stupid snow days pushed it back. Our last day is always a half day though. But we have finals... but on the last day I get to go in at 10 and take my chorus test and go home at noon. We usually start at 7:40 and get out at 2. It'll be a really easy... really pointless last day. Oh no! I just remembered... I work after school... unless the working schedule for the school year ends before finals... I hope it does! I want to relax at the end of the school year! Especially since it's so much later that all of yours...

PE2K became a vBulliten after the incident with the language they had that caused their proboard to be erased. I think theyve improved the stuffiness issue, but most people didnt seem to come back. =\ Ah well, I never really went there. Best of luck to em.

Im already out of school, wee~~~ >.>;

Err you cant load Win98 from a floppy as far as I know. Thats probably only a boot disk. You dont have any Windows CDs around? Cause you know Word doesnt come with Windows, so youd need a CD with that on it as well.

Oops! I meant 3:30 PM. I think I made that mistake not long ago in an AIM chat. :P

If that's your full day, I'd love to hear what your half-days are like. (Lol, I couldn't resist. XD)

=X And... a $5 laptop? I'm either imagining really stupid sellers, or a computer that's really slow. @[email protected] Either way, I still envy you. XD;; *wants a laptop, but her parents won't buy her one ;_;*

That's probably the problem...but the laptop is very old, from the early 90s. It doesn't have a D drive, and on top of it all, it has 8000MB memory on it (or something like that...) I think I might just have to buy a Windows 95 something or other to upgrade it to at the mall tomorrow...I guess I got what I paid for...what could I expect from a $5 laptop >_<

Try Windows 95.... ^_^

Err does it have a NIC by any chance? I guess you could maybe port over an ISO? Ahh I really dunno what to tell you. @[email protected]; Maybe remove the hard drive and hook it to another PC, then install Windows.

The lady my mom bought it off of did, apparently o_o;;

Thanks for the advice, Kairi ^^;; I have a couple of friends who are computer experts so I suppose I'll get some help from them.

Odd thing was that an hour before I discovered I was in possession of the antiquated laptop, I was making fun of an old commercial for Windows 3.1 that I saw in History Class (my teacher was showing an old doccumentary he had taped over a decade ago...)

When I finally get my summer vacation I'll just end up working. I do not want to spend my summer potting plants. No way! But that's probably what I'll end up doing since it will be nearly impossible for a teenager to find a summer job since everyone will need one. Oh well... I guess I'm stuck. But I'll probably only work three days a week or something... I really don't want to work at all. I'm so used to doing nothing all summer long... this will be my first summer since like 1st grade that I have to do something everyday. For fun though I do get to go to Disney World in the end of August. And I'll probably go swimming at the pool if I don't have to work...

oo; 200 posts per day? That's a LOT. Lol, I don't see how you're going to couple that with being outside more - 6 hours is a pretty big piece of each day. XD;

I'll probably be on at least 10 hours per day, so 6 is nothing to me. :P I can't see it being possible to post 200 quality posts per day, or 200 posts all together. I can only make that many in one week.

Two weeks at least, for me. o.o; But I'll probably be on more in the summer regardless of school. I can't imagine they'd give that much homework if we're taking the same subject each day for several hours at a time. =\ I'm looking forward to my one week of freedom over the summer, though. XD (That's basically all I've got o_O)
