Never again... the same

I'm thinking this.... Or better said I'm knowing this: this is changeing me! Fact! Stop. The avalanche of people that I've met since I'm here is overwhelming! But that's the point. It's great! I love meeting new and interesting people, I love getting to know true and intelligent persons, like the circle I've created here. We are students from all over the world, meeting in this city just to evolve. We are here to experience, to get to know our own selfes, to experiment, to have fun, to explore,to get used to the big city, and others, but not least to study :). Yep, college means studying, and I promise that after the freshman's bal I'll start too.

Over and out!

Truda - The 5 o'clock news

Truda is a Romanian band, pretty hardcore, very underground, extremely cluj-eni :D.
The 5 o'clock are the above-ground hardcore-est news in Romania. Only rapes, car crashes and
murders.
Truda decides to take them together. Awesome clip in my opinion. Enjoy :)

The Self Measuring Condom

If you ever wanted to know how you measure up in the bedroom checkout the, Condometric, it kind of does what you’d expect. Roll on, read the measurement then jump into bed (or turn the lights out and sneak under the covers).

More info and pictures over on the Condometric.

A new day shines on....

Yep, I've been for a week now in Cluj. Basically it's great. I'm staying in a dorm, and by huge luck I have great roommates, it my group @ school I've met some great guys and girls, so we hang out a lot, and by adding the friends I already had here in cluj, and the ones I came with, things look really pink :).
School is pretty shitty until now cause I have two mathematics and about six computer science classes, and I hate math since I was in junior high, so during the math classes I can barely fight to stay awake.

Soon I'll be back with more reviews and stuff so don't forget to keep coming cause I'll keep posting.

The first day of the rest of my life...

Yep, tomorrow I'll leave Vatra Dornei, my home for 19 years. It's a great place to live, even though it get's sometimes a little boring and a little stuffy, and I'll miss it, but I'll still come back here every few weeks. I can't stop thinking that except a few vacations in the next few years I'll never live here again. But the good part is that from tomorrow I'll start my college life in Cluj-Napoca, and I've got very high hopes for that. A good friend told me that I'll feel reborn in the first days... I hope he is right.

So for the last time as a "dornean",

Over and out....

Terminator 4

In the 4th installment in the Terminator series we have Sean Connor (Christian Bale) living his mother's prophecies. Here's the official trailer, and movie poster. The complete title is Terminator Salvation, and it's due to release on the 22nd of May 2009.
Plot quoted from IMDb:

Set in post-apocalyptic 2018, John Connor is the man fated to lead the human resistance against Skynet and its army of Terminators. But the future Connor was raised to believe in is altered in part by the appearance of Marcus Wright, a stranger whose last memory is of being on death row. Connor must decide whether Marcus has been sent from the future, or rescued from the past. As Skynet prepares its final onslaught, Connor and Marcus both embark on an odyssey that takes them into the heart of Skynet’s operations, where they uncover the terrible secret behind the possible annihilation of mankind.

Ubuntu - Installing wireless Broadcom drivers

The basic ideea is that a lot of us have problems with our Broadcom drivers, which appear in a lot of laptop models. I have an Acer TravelMate 5320 (with Ubuntu 8.04.1 aka Hardy Heron), and by testing a lot of tutorials, which ate about a week of my life, I managed to find a somewhat easier way to install the drives. Ok, now, let's take it step by step:

Step 1:
Go to your System->Administration->Synaptic package manager
Insert your sistem password, then go to the Settings->Repositories

Step2:
Check all the blanks there, so you can get full software support
Then go to the Updates tab and also check all the boxes
Now just click Close
Your computer will update now.
Just restart.

Step 3:
Now we have to install a little software called Ndiswrapper
First open System->Administration->Hardware drivers
There should appear your wireless board. Be sure it's unchecked
Go Applications->Add/Remove and search Ndiswrapper and install it
Go System->Administration->Ndiswrapper
Install new hardware and just select the location of your Windows Driver (cd or location on your PC)

And that's it. Just reboot your computer one more time and search for the wireless network you want to use. Go luck, and don't hesitate to message me if you have trouble.
