Restoring and Jailbreaking my Ipad

Woke up in the morning to find that my Ipad is not accessible anymore because someone tried the password too many times. Doesn't matter who it is, the Ipad is locked and even when I did what it showed ie "Ipad is locked, connect to iTunes to unlock" it cannot be unlocked. So I had to do what I put off for quite some time already ie to upgrade. My Ipad was stuck in iOS 3+ since the day I got it.

Thankfully Google was a lot of help and I took my few minutes course but got too excited and made a mess. Could not find Installous (duh, the must have if you jailbreak) and again found the solution but overdid it. Added too many sources and slowed the damn thing down and every other thing which I wanted to install would require Installous to be removed =_=|||

In the end I could not take it anymore and re-did the everything, restore and upgrade. Thank goodness that I have a fast Internet connection else I would be stuck at the download firmware page for hours. Restore and upgrade was a pain but not something that is too different from flashing in Android. Lots of reboot and updating so you just have to wait it out.

Once the waiting is all over, I rebooted it once more just in case before I do the jailbreak using absinthe. This part was the easiest (the app only have 1 button to press) BUT you guessed it, more reboot and updating =_= You would think that after so many rounds of reboot, the bloody thing would be satisfied but you are in for a shock =D Cydia on first launch also requires reboot.

Learning from my earlier mistakes, I just added a couple of sources which I remember having before I encountered any issues. So before Installous is even on my mind, I needed to upgrade a couple of the apps which came with the jailbreak and you must be familiar with what is required by now ... After you installed Installous, you get to reboot some more =D

Thank heavens that you don't need to reboot the damn thing some more when installing games. But now I have to find back what I had before and try to get it all back. The hindsight of that issue was that I got someone to do the jailbreak for me before and did not bother to get to know what my friend helped to install. One thing I noticed in iOS 5.1.1 is that my Ipad is using up the juice quite fast, hmm why is this feeling so familiar?

There are a few sources now which offers Installous but I think its best to get it from the original source (of course its more lessons from the earlier experience). So I would just recommend a couple of things to you if you are new to jailbreak (which I doubt very much) :

Sources :
http://cydia.hackulo.us
http://sinfuliphonerepo.com

Cydia tweaks/apps :
Installous (DUH!)
SBSettings (you will get Activator once you choose to install this)
Barrel
Fake Carrier

Since I am more of the n00b here, please do recommend more useful stuff :)

How many days are there in 1 week?

Based on my education and understanding of how a calender works, its 7 days. What about your's? Is your week different from mine? Do you have more or less???

Perhaps one would argue that a working week is 5 days or 5.5 days, heck many are now going 7 days a week as well.

Perhaps another one would argue that his/her leave would coincide with a public holiday so his/her 1 week is actually longer as well.

So I guess it should work the same way as well you say that you will be planning 1 week of activities which consists of 8 days and oh since there will be a public holiday, let's make that another +2 days. OK, so other people's 1 week have more days than mine and my understanding of 1 week is totally fucked up. Well, fuck my plans and enjoy your week.

How would you feel when you get the short end of the stick? So the next time when I say a week, its gonna be however the hell many days that I plan it to be. I don't give shit about your useless calender which always says that its got 7 days in it.

Some say its the end of the world. Its also someone's birthday. Today was an OK day but I left office so late trying to figure out how fucked up my mess was. I am short of RM150,000 to pay my vendor. RM50k of which I can actually worry about later. So that just leaves me with RM100,000 short. Now that's a bitch and I am fucked up real bad now. I think I should be able to cover it up next year when I run a similar project next year.

If the world ends today or tomorrow then I don't have to give a shit about this shit. I doubt it very much so I'm still gonna be fucked up. There are still many things that needs to be done before this year ends and I am supposed to clear my leave from Christmas onwards. Makes me really wanna say "Yippikaiyay Motherfucker!" and swallow a couple of painkillers so that my headache will go away.

Well, that its for this post and we'll see if I wake up tomorrow. Most likely I will open my eyes and end up cussing tomorrow morning because its already scheduled that I will have more work at night until at least midnight. mlm mlm

I always say the "right" things at the "wrong" time

I used to be a quiet person. I don't talk much because I don't have much to say particularly to the people whom I don't know. But if I am close to someone I might be a little more chatty but therein lies the problem. I almost always speak my mind so that means I am shooting so damn straight that people who don't know me might think that I am crazy to utter some things.

I am not sure how you are brought up but I have been constantly reminded that I am not supposed to lie. I had the shock of my life when I went to college. YOU CAN'T FUCKING SURVIVE IF YOU DON'T FUCKING LIE!!! I get to meet so many interesting and bad characters that I realize that I have tomust lie.

However, sometimes I unknowingly let slip what flashed across my mind and it normally lands me in a pile of shit so high that its over my head. Can't say that I don't really deserve it. To be honest, I was really telling the goddamned truth BUT nobody likes the truth. I hate myself for not being able to control myself BUT I will hate myself more if I kept it in too much.

Sigh, its sad that sometimes I will turn my friends away because its perhaps not what they want to hear and the stupid me just reminded them of their grief or wrongdoings. I do hope my close friends understand me enough to know that I am me and for me, I believe that the truth is better than lies especially among friends. Of course they are entitled their own fantasy bubble that should not be burst by my unfortunate knowing of their truth. For this I apologize for all the wrong or uncomfortableness that I may have caused.

I really must shut the fuck up more before I lose more friends. Too bad I really just can't help it if I see something wrong and let rip. Also, some people when talking about some secretive stuff they tend to be a tad too loud and I would overhear and then butt in :p So here's news for you, whisper even softer when talking about secret stuff because some people's hearing are better than others and will pick up what you say =D
