Alexander 6, V59.

A Monday. Full stop.
I decided to take my camera set today to re-shoot the lab in another way today. This time, I decided to make it only two rows. The two rows go around in increments of 30 degrees. For the top row, the camera is elevated at 30 degrees (with 0 degrees on the top of the vertical line dividing the dial), while the lower row is on -30 degrees. The are in the middle which was taken solely in the previous time will be shared in between the rows, the bottom of the upper row, and the top of the lower row. I was thinking, maybe too much details is not so good for the computer to overlap images and assign control points, or in other words, the software gets confused for the number of details and hence things go nasty afterwards. I shall give this a try instead of the previous trial that drove me nuts. In my haste, I've forgot to take a zenith snap, but I think I will try to take the zenith from the previous trial. It might work.
I was almost going into a disaster when the battery was exhausted and needed to be changed while working on the top row of images. Hence, after finishing, I've changed, as careful as it can be, the batteries. I've found out that the other batteries were exhausted as well! I've forgot to recharge them the last time! Here comes my Monday. I've already started with a disaster when I came to work and forgot all the keys in the other car, but Gracefully, the keeper was around to open the doors for me. My life is going into a real mess and I just can't hold the brakes.

Still studying my options for my vacation right now and I'm afraid that I'm running out of time for the time being! The visa procedures would need at least one month to be processed (if done with no mistakes). I have to prepare everything and reserve everything, then get the tickets, and then prepare for the visa. A long procedure that I do ask myself if I really am into all of this. One second I'm up to it, the other I'm just down and not willing to do anything.

 As for today, I've started with enlisting the words in the usual format that I usually use for the dictionary, preparing them to be added later on to the HTML dictionary. The process in the beginning was not as easy as I thought, specially with some technical awkward moments with the software. I'm using the OpenOffice Writer now, and forgetting about all the fuss in the Microsoft Word. It's free! It needs some work on some aspects, but never the less, you would give up some options for a free complete set of softwares that run parallel to the Microsoft stuff, like Word or Excel or even PowerPoint. However, I'm preparing myself for more difficulties soon, as there might be some words that are duplicated (i.e. one English word with same meaning having 2 Ayvarith words). Such things happen all the time. Just for fun, I post here the words enlisted in the first page of the new words of the dictionary (who knows, I might add more later on here...) - Remember, words between the square brackets [...] are the pronunciation. The exact Ayvarith text won't appear if you don't have the Ayvarith font installed.

1393. something held the neck of Alexander tightly from his back
1394. the press was so tight on the hero's neck and he could not breath
1395. while Alexander held the thing and tried to resist
1396. the shouts of Alexander filled the forest with echo
1397. while the black thing shouted in same manner
1398. and the saliva of the shadow dropped on Alexander
1399. Alexander tried hard to turn his face and look at that thing
1400. but the force on his neck was so fierce and did not move
1401. and Alexander bent his body up and stretched his legs
1402. then used his legs against the face of the shadow
1403. the shadow fell down screaming out loud
1404. and covered his eye with his own hands
1405. but Alexander could not see a thing of his shape
1406. because it was dark but only with the moons' lights
1407. the shadow got up to run away from Alexander
1408. but in a fast move the hero captured his legs
1409. and with a rope he had in his sack he tightened him
1410. and to a tree he had him tightened and unable to move
1411. thus Alexander relaxed and closed his eyes calmly
1412. and decided to check the identity of this shadow later
1413. while the shadow was moaning from the pain
1414. and had no power to move at all after this kick
1415. because it was directly into his eyes
1416. and he might not see again from now on

Alexander 6, V43.

A disastrous day. My PC went down and I can't turn it on again. I think it is mainly a corruption in the registry of the OS. Writing this from my laptop which I rarely turn on at home. I have to look after a good computer workshop, instead of the stupid one I used to go to...
I will try to consider this stop as a little vacation for myself... away from facing the monitor most of the time. Well, still I do have the laptop, but I wouldn't be able to do much with the laptop. It's not made for heavy tasks. As for now, my backup plans would be to get a new motherboard and install Windows 7 with maximum RAMs and a good graphics card suitable for working with Photoshop (and not gaming), while keeping my old hard disk with all its data as an external hard disk. I can put it in an external case. I'm sure it's going to be costly but well, my salary and a bonus were just put into my account this week. Easy comes, easy goes. As for now, I think I can't do much imaging, but only to be calm and post verses from Alexander's story... and writing poetry if I can have the inspiration!

1009. then Birbuár urged Alexander to show his Charnagút
1010. but Alexander refused and said: something in me says no
1011. thus while the crowds were getting closer to them
1012. Alexander looked up into the sky and thought
1013. then suddenly he shouted with all his power
1014. "Oh! What is this!"
1015. while the people looked up to the sky above
1016. Alexander held the hand of Birbuár and ran
1017. they crossed the crowds in a hard way
1018. and everyone started to run after them
1019. while Birbuár guided Alexander through the roads
1020. the roads of the village was winding left and right
1021. and some of them were hanging in the air
1022. while Alexander ran and looked around him amazed
1023. and inside an old house with no door they got in
1024. waiting for the crowds of people to pass by and go away
1025. then Alexander faced Birbuár and said to him with anger
1026. "you are verily a wicked man Birbuár,
1027. how much wickedness you have done to others?
1028. and you wanted me to show my Charnagút there?
1029. in the face of innocent children?"
1030. and Birbuár stuttered in his speech and said
1031. "O good king, I was indeed a wicked man,
1032. but help me to end this suffering and I shall help you!"

Monday, 13th.

As the main title says... Monday 13th. One of the most brilliant days of my life. Why? 'Cos I hate Mondays and I hate the number 13. People just don't believe me about this, but it just happens to be so... it is my experiment that proves so. I'm writing these words just some minutes before leaving my work place, since I couldn't type them earlier because of the damned connection problem that made me out of the internet here for more than 45 minutes.

Just as I planned to give my full interest today to write more in the story I'm writing now, I had to leave the office for a while because some interviews were to be made in the meeting room which is the same as my office's place. Group of techno guys came in and spend all the day there and yet no progress they made with the device they brought, so they wasted some hours of my valuable time. Then, I get back to the office and I see that nothing is working with the connection here. I couldn't even update or write the story and I couldn't even work on the translation because I need the online dictionary to help me with some words as well. This day was a complete disaster.

I have to push myself more to do some work at home with the story of Alexander. I have ideas for other stories racing through my mind but I'm afraid to start any. I'm spreading myself thin already. I must finish this thing first. I have an upcoming upheaval of work related to the page of Ayvarith since GeoCities is closing down. Damn just to remember how many accounts I had in their system makes me really really melancholic! I have to download all at once!

Well, what can I say about this day. Just I was telling my partner in the lab this morning, I hate Mondays and I hate number 13 and she laughed and did not believe it. I hope now she will consider now. I didn't fast today 'cos I didn't have my night meal yesterday... so it's like an open day for me... maybe this is the only one good thing about this Monday... that I didn't fast preparing myself for the tiresome time that I would pass through later in day.

I'm looking seriously for more handwriting analysis from sites here and there. I'm comparing prices and asking questions but no answers yet. I wanna take a deep look into myself though. Sometimes such things can make you think deeply about the potentials that you might be carrying on without knowing them, and once known to you, you might be able to open the gates for a new career that you might get happy with.

As for me for the time being, I'm going to worry about the upcoming appointment for my ear and the catastrohpic event of removing the clinic from the medical center in my area. I have to go to some hospital now which I do really hate. I might consider going to a private clinic though.

Gosh, I'm waiting for this day to finish as soon as possible... with peace.
