Breathe Jane.

Jane Ullah @ April 4, 2008 # 2 Comments

See I have a confession to make. Whenever I have a lot on my plate, I get nervous and stressed although I don’t know it. How it manifests itself? Dumb f*** mistakes like the one I just made. Actually I made this mistake a few days ago, but it was uncovered today. I was a [...]

A follow-up

Jane Ullah @ March 11, 2008 # One Comment

So, we have taken the plunge. We have found a sweet pad (650 sq. ft.) and it’s affordable (despite the LL’s sudden concern about affordability). We (read I) broke the news to LL and he took it well. We gave him the courtesy of a month’s notice although we’re very eager to begin living at [...]

It’s Certain Someone! Talk about giving your girl some lip this week. Well, well, I’ll hold my tongue and pretend I didn’t get the sarcasm/spite behind your words. lol. Dirt off this chick’s shoulder, certain someone. You’ll have to try  harder. I’m learning to be happy with my lot for now. When the time comes, [...]

I am really not trying to be difficult, but …

Jane Ullah @ December 18, 2007 # One Comment

Damn you woman/man/servers!!!! How come when I put on a smiley face and place my order, it gets screwed up? Granted “shit happens,” but when you start poking fun at my expense, then I have a right to get pissed which I wasn’t even close to getting. All I wanted was my damn food and [...]

Giving and taking

Jane Ullah @ October 1, 2007 # One Comment

Why is it so hard to say “I’m sorry”? Sometimes, I seriously wonder about certain things that happen. How people can be so different and still have so much in common. Who ever said life is full of grays was right, but he couldn’t have predicted the difficulty with accepting this fact that humans face. [...]

Feeling good, feeling great :)

Jane Ullah @ September 27, 2007 # One Comment

Well, well, well! Who woulda thunk it? I just came back from a lab. meeting and I left feeling like part of something good. Man, I’ve got a lot of work to do, but I’m so looking forward to it! I can’t believe the feeling that’s rushing through me. I think my job may [...]

I’m tired

Jane Ullah @ September 26, 2007 # One Comment

Work has been hard on me. Nobody said it was easy, right? It sure is different from this side of things i.e. being a research technician who seems to be any and everything to a lab versus a student who is not as beholden as a techie. I don’t mind it for now. I’ve had [...]

The movie, Knocked Up, had a few nuggets.

Jane Ullah @ August 23, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Okay, Knocked Up is rated R and by God, rightfully and sinfully so. It hits the right notes to attract males and just enough to keep the females happy. By box office accounts, this movie has done well. This movie struck me as having an anti-abortion stance and not justifiably so. The basic [...]

I have a wiki! Now what?

Jane Ullah @ July 9, 2007 # No Comment Yet

Well, after several hitches, I finally found a solution to the problem of installing MediaWiki on my Virtual Dedicated Server (VDS) from Jumpline. I had to convert the database created from UTF-8 encoding to Latin1. The error I’d been receiving was about the maximum key length being exceeded (the max. key length for MySQL is [...]
