School

I started a new semester at school and I took Math 11, English 11, Physics 11, and a spare. I'm in the same teachers class for everything but English. My Tenant is a Student Teacher and she is teaching me English.

Gamemaker

In Gamemaker I Have been Slacking, (No way) But I have been trying to learn some new functions. I have made a Ball Bounce in a room, which works ok I just need to tweak it a lil, and I made something strafe around an object.

The only problem now is my friend got me Norton 360 and it says my Version of Gm7 is a Virus. I'm not quite sure how to get around that yet.

Christmas

For Christmas I got a new room and a car.

The room is now brown, I have a new bed, and a new dresser. The room used to be Blue before. The car is a 1988 New Yorker.

Other

- I got my L on Feb 1st.

- I made some friends lately

Thats about it.

@Evily, I have 2GB of RAM, and Visty home premium runs like a dream.

I meant because of XP's 2gb RAM cap. XP X64 and Vista have a higher limit, but apparently both of them are equally unstable, so meh

Vista is 32 bit, and can only adress 3.5 gigabytes of ram or something. 64bit, either Vista or XP supports much more. But the price you pay for that extra memory is compatibility, pretty much nothing runs.

@PY I idi some reasearch and I found that Norton 2008 and Norton 386 don't have exeptions lists. To get it to work I had to Turn Auto Protect Off, So im back to square 1…
