Fantastic... simply fantastic!....
So... My original phone i had gotten a year ago, April, was stolen October 30th, 2009. I had a 4GB card that I had bought for my previous phone, the LG Chocolate, two years earlier. I was really upset. I was in class when I had found out that my phone was missing. I knew i had been sitting in an open lab before class, so i checked there. Not there at all. I asked everyone. Nothing... It had been raining out that day. I thought about it. If I had dropped it outside, I would have heard a thud - wouldn't you think?
Well, while in class (before I knew I had lost my phone), I was on a photoshoot for class.. Editorial class. We were walking all around MPLS, literally... If I would have dropped it.. sigh.. I dono... sigh.

..I walked into the Verizon store with my dad, and they said I had to order through their insurance company. Anyways. Asurian or something like that... I could not order it until the weekend (for some reason) and so I had to wait for my phone to come in through the mail. It worked fine for a while, and one day, I was waiting in my classroom, well, studio, and I was texting my friend, Jenny. Out of no where, my phone said, "No service" or something, and like, I could not txt, call or anything! I was so confused! I borrowed my friend, Mugs' phone and tried calling my phone - it went straight to voicemail. I called my mum up and told her that we needed to go to the Verizon Wireless store and told her what was going on. That night, I had gone to Verizon, and the guy was so confused too! He said that my phone's GPS thing shut off for some reason and that is why I could not use it. So, the guy went into the back room and grabbed a new one for me (this was back in December). I had ordered a case for my phone since I did not have one anymore.
My old one was a hard plastic one that clasped together. I loved that thing. There were no more covers for the LG Dare available at the store, so I had them order me one off their site. $2.99. Not bad, but I still like my old one better... I like to take this one off a lot.. It is a silicone case... I HATE IT... in class, I like to fiddle with it... tee hee hee.. i said fiddle... but in all seriousness... mahahaha... Okay,... back to my story! I also had bought a Micro SD card again for my phone, since I take a lot of photos with my phone! (nice quality, but not great - 3.2 Mega Pixels) I've been using that card for a while and had gotten frustrated from it. I would take a photo, and try to save it. Usually it would say, "Saved to Card" but a lot of times it says some error thing.... After the error message, it would exit the photo function and I would loose that photo, and I would go to my photos and see a bunch of white boxes where my photos would be, and saw tons and tons of picture frames with question marks. I knew something was wrong when I could not take a video at the largest possible size video capture. I would open it up, and press record, well, the camera button to start the recording, and the screen turned pink! PINK!!! Seriously? I would save the video to see what would happen, and I would go to My Videos and see a white box with a film reel and a question mark... GAHH!
Well, today, while txting Kath, I had a brilliant idea! I should find my vCast Rhapsody disc so I can put some of my CW songs on my phone! I found my CD in my drawer and installed it on my Mac.. I could do absolutely nothing. I looked at the CD and it said something about if you want to put music on your phone use a pc blah blah blah. So, I uninstalled that application from my laptop, and i headed into the room of death (my old room I had been in my 15 of 16 years of my life here in MN :) )... The reason why I call it the Room of Death is because you cannot get in there... everything has been pushed into there, no lie! Anyways, my old PC that got for Christmas when I was like 13 or 14, is in that room. I remembered I had installed one vCast thing on there before and so I had updated it. I took a long time to rip SftH onto my PC - ten minutes into the ripping, it only got half of the songs imported (sigh)! Then I had everything completed, went into the vCast application and selected a group of songs - like all of the CW songs I own - about 185 or so... hahah! and was going to transfer them to my Phone. I hooked my phone up through the USB cord i got (which actually plugs into my charger to put into the wall) and tried transferring the music. NOPE... Error, error, error! Each song showed an error. I looked into my phone at my memory card usage and it said, and I quote, "0kb" used and"0.0kb" available. What the heck? It is supposed to say around 3.7 or 3.8GB!!! I was so frustrated then.. and I am sure Kris and Kath knew haha... So, I gave up, turned off the PC and headed back to my room.
- Side note, When I entered the RoD, I had brought my laptop in so I could listen to Music.. which happened to be watching movies and videos. I watched a lot of SftH clips, behind the scenes, and the PS22 videos with CW.... and I watched all of Bolt... so.. that means I was in that room for a few hours.
I called my dad, he was in a meeting. He called me back later on, and I had mentioned that I wanted to go to the Verizon Wireless store. He agreed to take me (he had taken my car to work.. sigh) even though he had no idea what in the world I was talking about. We got to the store and had to wait about 5 minutes. Then a lady called my name and I had explained everything that was wrong with my phone the best that I could. She started futzing with my phone, walking back and forth to the back room. My dad goes off to chat with a person he knows from the bus. I am just standing there hoping that I didn't get a txt from any friends. She comes back 10 min later and said, "It has to be the memory card. I tried reformatting it on your phone and on our computer system and it looks like it is corrupt." She asked me a few questions and then finally said, "Yeah, the company sent you out a corrupt card. There was no way of you or them knowing it was that way." So, she said I could get a new one since it was still under warranty. She went through her files and pulled grabbed me a new card for free! :) I is a happy girl :D Oh, I should check if she had gotten the right size... Okay, we are in business!
On the way home, I was trying to set back all of my functions and sounds and what not. Luckily all my cool ringers and txts and all that were still on my phone! I am so glad they didn't give me a new phone... I love saving my phones... even ask my friend, Steph! There is just stuff on each one, that I dont wanna loose! Okay, yes, I am weird... but it is who I am!
So I think I found out where I say "Jerk" from. I was watching Homeward Bound today, and there was a scene with Chance playing with a porcupine. After Chance got needles lodged into his muzzle, he says in a low voice, "Jerk.." as the porcupine walks away. Mahaha... wow...
That was my exciting day... mahaha... I am about to hit the hay. It is 12:16. Phineas and Ferb is on, and my other nightly routined shows, so I must go! Hopefully I will fall asleep before two :)
Tomorrow, I am going to have a Tinkerbell Marathon and then Go to target (to find a friend a Birthday gift and card) and then Class from 2-5pm, and then 6-8pm. LONG days.. sigh...
Okay, night my loves!!!
