Iphone 3.0

My younger brother got the beta software and put it on my itouch, I
can confidently say that unless you are desperate for copy and paste
or a landview mail it's a waste of 10$. The copy paste gets annoying
after a while, especially if you're a news junkie like me. When your
reading the BBC from the BBC app, if your finger stays too long on the
text a big blue box will highlight the paragraph and prompt you to
copy. Every single time. It would go a long way to allow the user to
just activate the copy feature by double tapping and then holding down.

But I had a great day so far. Went to the nursery where the toddlers
still remembered me, then went to church and listened to the sermon.
Funnily enough, throughout the entire sermon I kept smelling
onions...at first my brother and I thought it was the lady next to us.
Turns out it was my mom all along, she prepared the slow cooker to
make some pork for the night and the smell just stuck on her!

Now Im just delaying so I should probably get to studying. We'll see
how that goes, I only got 5 hours of sleep tonight...

Studying Nursing Assessment

We have an exam on it on Monday, but man it's boring. I know Id like
to be a nurse, but how is this stuff going to help? Well, ok, so maybe
nurses have to know about evidence based practise and ethical/legal
guidelines. Doesn't mean I don't feel so completely and utterly bored
by it. Wish we could start clinicals ready, I feel like I'm going to
forget everything by the fall.

Speaking of the fall, did anyone else hear Obama comment on how the
current US tradition of a 3 month break from school was made for
agricultural societies? I'm so glad this is getting some attention,
education is finally going to be modernized in the next 4-8 years!

Ok...

So apparently posting from my email messes up the formating and does way too much paragraph...let's we if posting from safari is any better. I'm sure the paragraphing will be fine, but it's the lagginess I'm more concerned about. Will it start lagging if I post too much?

Testing post

Im testing how blogging from my email works on the itouch, using the
app TouchType lite. So far so good, much much easier to type and
there's no lagginess like there is sometimes if safari on certain
websites. Hmmm...doesn't appear as if I can scroll up and down the
screen very easily...oh, nevermind. Just needed more lines to be out
of screen!

If paragraphs will work I will be one happy man. Honestly, I don't get
why people like twitter so much. Hardly any room to write your
thoughts out on and there are soooooo many people using it it's
impossible to follow a conversation, on the itouch at least.

Alright I'm sending this in, wish me luck! (really regretting that the
itouch doesn't have a camera right now, would have been able to post
pics from a different app. Ah well, y'all just have to settle for my
descriptions if something I want to take a pic of comes up)

G-d bless,
