VIDDING DISASTER


I'm relatively angry about a few of things. I was making a video and when the video was half completed I  tried publishing it to see if it looked okay. If It didn't look as good as I hoped,I'd continue fixing up the mistakes on Windows Movie Live Maker. Not so greatly,when I tried publishing it, it had reached 90 per cent into the saving but then Windows Movie Live Maker had it stop at that and alerted a message telling me to check to make sure the files I had used in the video were all still available and they were. I have tried everything I know of to fix this problem. The clips I'm using are the same format as the ones I used in the previous video's and besides, it's only three to four minutes long. I feel stressed out,I spent a lot of hours in making this video and now I feel like I wasted a lot of my time. Time in which I can never ever get back. I really want to upgrade to Sony Vegas 12. It has versatile features,visual effects and animations. I tried downloading it for free but it wouldn't save onto my computer and messed up my browser. I had to resort to Internet Explorer a week ago,and guess what,I'm still using Internet Explorer. I miss my Chrome. My siblings get temperamental about me downloading ,that's why I hadn't downloaded anything for a long time... until last week. To see the browser get damaged,made my siblings extra persistent. I apologized to them and promised not to download anything. There are shows in which I want to badly download,so I can make video's to show my appreciation and passion for them. And I so badly want to download Sony Vegas 12 to make my video's a tad bit more extraordinary. It doesn't even have to be Sony Vegas 12,it can be Sony Vegas 9. They're both great. I'm a fan of many shows and I only have one show on my laptop in which I can make video's based on. Yes,I have my school laptop but it doesn't allow me to download Sony Vegas 12 and blocks sites that involve downloading films and shows. I love video making and editing of the the things I enjoy but it's difficult with how things are going.

I wish to one day have all my favourite drama's and comedies saved on my laptop with the great Sony Vegas on the side. I'd sit on my comfy bed with a nice cool lemonade near of me on the wooden table beside my bed,or maybe on a winters day,a hot cocoa to make the moment cozy as I do one my beloved hobbies. But right now, I'm still trying to find a way to do all these precautions on my school laptop. Maybe my friends Nicole and Ricci might be able to help. Noticed how I said might. Nicole unblocked Facebook on her school laptop but it wasn't because she knew how to hack or anything like that,she used someone's Tafe password. Ricci knows how to submit Google Chrome onto her school laptop though,maybe she knows of more that can really help my situation.

CHRISTMAS IS LIKE SO NEXT MONTH...


Christmas is near. You know what that means! Preparations of gifts,cards,decorations and of course the feasting food.I'm not outlining on the feasts,I don't celebrate Christmas but I do take part in it;whether it's handing out long written cards with candy cane attached to them,at times participating in a Christmas event or two and just singing carols from the top of my head. The actual celebrating in which you put up the tree and decorate it,open the gifts that were garnered for you and eating the usual turkey or ham with delicious side dishes and desserts...I don't do all that. Not because I don't want to but in order for me to go into this celebration,my family must also be into it too.I can't just be the only one committed to do the decorating and cooking,Christmas is after all about Christ,hope and family; *coughs* family need to join in. The main reason I don't do all those things is because I'm Muslim,us Muslims already have a celebration and it's called Eid. I'm not strictly religious however and admire any celebration as long as it is peaceful.

If you have read my past posts,you would know that one of my resolutions was to hand out cards as much as I can. And indeed I am doing so. When I receive Christmas cards,ninety percent of them contain one sentence and that one sentence basically goes something like this ''Merry Christmas and a happy new year.''That part,they didn't even write themselves,it came neatly printed along with the card they bought. The only part they generally write is ''To Sabah'' and ''From (insert name).'' To be honest, I don't get bothered about this. I appreciate that they even gave me a card in the first place. But ever since I realized this phenomenon,I keep thinking that's somewhat the reason of why so many people don't enjoy reading their cards and tend to throw them away;not even thinking their cards of medium value. Maybe they're bored of the same one or couple of sentences being reused without any new lines surrounding it because when they read it, it's showing that the person who gave them the card didn't put much heart and thought into it.

Just so you know,I just finished writing out all my friends cards an hour ago,they will receive them in a couple of weeks. I'm thinking about giving them small gifts; something on my desk that is still in good condition but I don't need it nor want,something that is in wonderful quality but can be bought at a low price and something from the heart.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you guys. I hope and and wish you the best. Christmas is next month,who cares? This can be an early confidential. And don't forget,you're awesome.
