R.I.P. Steve Jobs (Feb 24, 1955 – Oct 5, 2011)

Your death (Oct 6 in Australia) will forever remain in my heart as a significant date of tragedy and heartbreak. It was a day of mourning. I am sure many people were reminded of the shortness of life, and the speed with which it can be taken. But some people reacted particularly stronger.

Like my iPod Touch. Undergoing an internal conflict, my iPod decided to TURN ON ME as a response to Steve Jobs’ death!!! So I hadn’t turned it on for several months … and turning it on, everything was normal. Until it asked me for my password. When I got up to the capital letters of my password I pressed shift. Once. AND THEN IT TURNED BLUE. I was like … okay … it went onto caps lock. This is unusual. So I typed in those letters. Then I typed up some non-capital letter bits. THEN THE NEXT TIME I PRESSED SHIFT IT WOULD FLASH BLUE BUT NOT STAY BLUE!! Argh. It would stay blue for the amount of time I kept my finger on the button but the moment I took my finger off it would go back grey!! D: omg I was like asghk;dfg. i even tried to type in the letters with my finger on shift but it didnt work :( it's like when mr bean walks past tvs and they go static and then they only start working normally when he leaves so he can never watch the tvs :(

So all I could do was restart it heaps of times and hope it would work. But it didn’t.

So a few days later I spent my whole day on youtube watching videos on HOW TO UNLOCK YOUR IPOD IF YOU FORGET YOUR PASSWORD. Sad thing? I hadn’t synced it to any computer since my computer got reformatted a while ago … so I couldn’t just connect it. So apparently if you put your iPod on recovery mode you can reset it (I’d given up on keeping the data and just wanted my iPod reset). So I was trying to reset it … but then it was like ERROR it wont blah blah. So I was like DDDD: and tried again.

Then it worked the second time 0:) im so happy.

So it got the new OS synced to it and stuff … and opening my iPod I realised that I now had gamecentre. I didn’t have gamecentre before. So I was creating my username! As you readers will all know, im lazy and hence I just use jenmonster for everything. SO WHEN I REALISED THAT JENMONSTER WAS TAKEN I WAS LIKE OMG WHAT DO I DO.

And I don’t want to add more r’s like what i did for my youtube account cause I wont remember how many r’s I added. So I decided to change it completely and make it a nickname that my brother gave me. Sufood. I call Jason a doofus and he’s like ‘You’re a doofus!’ and I was like ‘No … I’m THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF A DOOFUS!’ and Jason paused. Then he was like ‘then you’re a SUFOOD!! Exact opposite, right?!’ and I was like :|

Then, typing it into gamecentre … it was taken.

I mean, sufood isn’t even a word. … right?! So out of curiosity I decided to google define: sufood. And guess what I found.

yeah ehe i took the screenshot at school so you cant see my asian computer font :D

Yeah. I changed my phone’s Bluetooth name from sufood to Jennifer :) just then in an attempt to escape any … misunderstandings. So by this time I was like AFHG is it impossible to get a username? So I tried boofhead.

Someone has the username boofhead.

And I was like DDDD: so I remembered a random word off the top of my head. Monolid. Ehe let’s see if someone got the username monolid?! I am actually slightly freaked out trying to picture me evilly and angrily punching ‘monolid’ into my iPod …

And guess what.  My new gamecentre username is monolid. That awkward moment when you're typing something random to see if it's taken and it ends up being your new username. Beautiful. Sums up me in a single word. But I probably wont change it, cause it’s just one of those things that will remind me of fun times :’)

this makes me look a bit sad :(
