Adobe I Hate You

26 June 2009

Hi guys,
first of all an update on the job situation. -I’ll be gone from 6th July – 17th July
Also I’m going on the train down to my cousins so it’s a 4 hour train journey (yippee) ¬¬ I think they have wifi on the train though so I will update.

OMG my cousin told me my job is sorting out all the major fashion designers lines for next season OMFGGGGGG GUCCI, LOUIS VUITTON, MARC JACOBS, LUELLA, CHANEL, BURBERRY, DIOR, CALVIN KLEIN, DVF, ARMANI, PRADA, VIVIENNE WESTWOOD etc

omg they best give me free stuff :D :D :D :D

I’m well excited now heheh

Also even though I’m away on Rainbowcrush’s official 1st birthday (17th July) *cries* The birthday celebrations will be going ahead from the 18th July
So I guess you’re wondering what’ll be in store, well I haven’t confirmed the dates yet but…

  • there’ll be a referral contest where I’ll be giving some domains away

(not sure how many I’m thinking maybe a couple of .com/net/org’s and about 2 infos)
Also the referral contest will be special as I believe no one has done a contest like this before (i’m not giving away details though hehe )

  • Twitter quiz
  • I’ll also be doing a Q & A vlog

so you can ask absolutely anything about my online life, my offline life, my personal life, ANYTHING! except anything too personal ;)
and I’m not sure what else yet haha, I’ll keep you posted though

Onto the main topic. So I ordered photoshop cs4 about 2 weeks ago now and it came in the post all fine and dandy and I had to email adobe my details about me being a student so i could get my serial number. And On their website they’re like “receive a response in 1 business day” so I’m like yayyyyy my serial number will be here soon
One week later…. so yeah me being pissed off now I decide to ring adobe up because their online chat is conveniently “offline” so I ring adobe up and they put me on hold so I wait…and I wait….and I wait for 40 FUCKING MINUTES and still no one
so then I check my email and I’ve got a case update so i’m like finally my serial number so I reads it and it says “we’ve got your proof of your academic status we need a photo ID” so then I’m like ¬¬ you fucking kidding me?!

So then I attaches my drivers licence to the case because its the only photo id I’ve got (my passport is currently at the passport office being renewed) so I have no passport either and I go on holiday in 3 weeks… ¬¬

so they’ve now not answered me again, adobe have shitty customer service, in fact it’s worse than Microsoft and heaven knows they’re bad so you should all go illegally download photoshop and Flash and Dreamweaver xD

Also progress is slow with the site, seeing as I have no photoshop, but you see div class and wordpress pages don’t like each other so I’ve had to change the whole format of my icons ¬¬ . Also I’ve yet to fix my ask and answer script and I’ve made a wordpress theme but the previewer seems to think that the folder is in fact a subdomain and just shows it as an index of ¬¬

Also finally I have my first hostee *is proud* and I have another application for a hostee but I’m still considering that one as yet. Also while I’m away I’ll be closing reviews as there’s no way I’ll be able to keep on top of them while I’m away. I’ll still check my emails and I’ll still twitter :D

Thanks, and I hope your webmail is working. :)
Yeah, I only got to meet the Jonas brothers once, but they weren’t even that exciting lmao.
Don’t worry, maybe someday you’ll get to meet someone really darn famous. :P

SAY WHAT? You voted for Rpattz over Taylor?!?! Lmao, well I guess that’s your opinion, but c’mon now, TAYLOR IS THE SEX.

Thanks, I’m feeling much better now after going to the doctors, although I have to eat like a real fatso, which can actually be fun, so yay. :)
Whoas thanks for the instructions! If my webmail ever goes down again, then i can use that technique haha.

Best of luck with the whole job thing. 4 hour train journey? Oh snap. That sucks.
OMG you’re so lucky if they give you free designer stuff! I’M JELLIN’ As in jealous, lmaoo.

Happy birthday to Rainbow Crush! <3.
Dayum, you went through quite the experience with Adobe.
Sorry that it didn't go your way, hopefully they'll actually help you soon.

Hope the job is a good experience :)
Can’t wait for the 1 year contests !

Q’s for the Q&A vlog:

Congrats on the first hostee :)

Pam June 26th, 2009 at 11:42 pm

All them designers? Gosh your so lucky! Take me with you.. <3 lol.

Looking forward to your contest! Can't wait. :)

Helplines are so crap, they don't help at all. Does this mean they have your drivers license? o.O

They just make things worse, break it more, have people that don't understand you.. or machines. I mean… come on!! Hope you finally get it fixed. :)

Your site is already a year old? Wow!

Sounds like you gonna have an awesome time while you’re in a GG alike episode of your life xD Enjoy the time at your cousin :)

I can’t wait to see what’s about your referal contest! You really have to keep me updated on that one! Hehe :)

wow.. Adobe actually really sucks xD I hope you get that serial number thingy soon!

Georgina June 27th, 2009 at 3:14 am

Omg lucky. If they give you free stuff you must tell us all about them so we can be all hugely jealous, yo. Sounds great though – I’m sure it’s gonna be major fun, ay!

Wooo, happy birthday to Rainbowcrush. My site turns a year old in October. XD

Adobe. Bitches. Thanks for reassuring me though, I have a cracked version. AHOO. I still feel bad about it though lol.

I hate when you ring up a company and they have shitty service. I called my internet provider months ago to have a whinge and they put me on hold for a fucking long time until it actually eventually cut out. STUPID.

GOOD, there better be wifi on the train. :D :D :D I don’t mind long train rides; wanna swap? XD

Suzanne June 27th, 2009 at 10:13 am

Hi sweetie
How are you?
You took me off your affies *tears* however it is understandble.
Hope your doing well :)

Oh it’s no problem! I haven’t been keeping up my end of the commenting either, so I should be the one apologizing as well. :P

LOL. It seems like everyone wants to be a celebrity :3 I want to be one, too! It’d be great to have fans for a day, LOL.

All the huge company’s customer services pretty much stink. It’s like they can’t afford to hire better people for the job — especially when I KNOW they can afford it. Ick!

I hope you have a great time with your cousins! :D
& also, HAPPY (early) BIRTHDAY TO RAINBOWCRUSH~ wooh :D I can’t wait for those contests. I may be participating, who knows :P I always like to enter contests for the heck of it.

Ben June 28th, 2009 at 2:07 pm

You’re going to have such a blast down there with your job. Haha you’re away whilst I am doing my work experience, those exact dates. Working in pizza hut, fun fun.

Yeah, just ask for freebies! Go ‘OOh I love this! Can I keep it!?’ It worked for someone on ANTM. Me, Ugly Betty cummer?! NEVER. It wasn’t even on at 9. Gut-ted.

What gimps adobe are! Ugh, I would have started ranting and raving and gone if you put me on hold then I will sue you, I don’t know what for but I will find something! Ugh, I saw that on twitter but thought best not say anything in case I make it worse. :)

Same, same. Actually I hardly ever take the photo because at the time I think I look half decent. How wrong I am. :(

Wordpress is a guy because of Mr.Wordpress haha. But nice about the wordpress was a girl. That reminds me of the I was a Boy song by Beyoncé. :L

OMGOSH. That sounds seriously scary and something I have to do, hopefully over the summer holidays even though I will be cacking myself in the queue but… meh!

Haha dailybooth is awesome. :) Though IT can’t spell geography. I haven’t updated with a picture in a while, maybe tomorrow seen as I have fail hair.

Kerry June 28th, 2009 at 5:32 pm

Thanks for the review!
Wow, that’s a long time on a train. Sounds like it’ll be worth it when you get there though. If they don’t give you free stuff I suggest accidentally putting things down in your handbag :P
JOKE, God please don’t repeat that! lol.
Anyway… I’m looking for ward to updates and more about that contest :D
Talk soon xx

Cole June 29th, 2009 at 12:26 am

Rachel June 29th, 2009 at 9:12 am

OMG I like your job!

Steven June 29th, 2009 at 9:04 pm

I love Adobe! :D HA! That delay was an epic fail on behalf of them though… that is why I am such an Apple fan… quick and efficient!

In response to your comment on Novajo -

I know! I can’t really remember my GCSEs which is uberly worrying seeing as I only sat them 2 years ago but they are not difficult at all because although you do many more subjects the new GCSE course does not require much depth whatsoever. My year was the last year to do the ‘traditional GCSE course’ and I remember comparing the science specifications and the new course had cut around half the content!!! :O

I’m going to have to disagree with you there as I love Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverley Place and Suite Life of Zach and Cody. :) I also like Sonny with a Chance. I know it is not ‘proper’ entertainment but it will do me. Obviously it is nowhere near as good as Oprah or Desperate Housewives or Big Brother but then again it does make me laugh which is nice in a 30 minute slot. :D Also, the fact that Disney has no ads makes it very appealing!!! ;)

I always watch Sky News… like, it is always on. :| I remembering I was chatting on MSN and Facebook and I heard ‘Michael Jackson is dead’ and I was like ‘WTF?!’ so I spent the entire evening and early morning engrossed in the news with cups of tea, biscuits and champagne. Ok, the champagne was really inappropriate but it comforted me somewhat. :D I remember going to bed at 2.30am. What surprised me even more is the fact that I woke up at 8am and put the news back on and it was as though nothing had changed. The same stuff was going on air and I was like ‘oh lord, he really is dead’ and then sobbed a bit over breakfast. BUT, good news is they might released his O2 rehearsal’s on DVD and he has a $60m worth of unreleased songs which will obviously be released some time. :D I think he’s in a better place now though… what do you think?

Yeah, my mum is upset too. She met him when she was a manager at a hotel he stayed in during the 80s and yeah, sad times. :(

Haha wow, congrats on the job XD Hopefully they do give you free stuff then you can send some stuff to me (A) heh.

Aaww, you’re giving domains away on YOUR sites first birthday? That’s so sweet hehe. I don’t think I’ve ever kept a site for a whole year =/ I fail hahaha.

40 minutes?! That’s fucking ridiculous, they’re meant to be some famous company and they don’t even answer the phone? Rude. They do have the worst customer service. I’m so glad I downloaded mine haha.

Yay for your first hostee :D
