Its been some busy days for me. And the forever forgetful me had alot of things to do today. But wait awhile, i have to tell my story of yesterday. Ahhh yesterday, was friday, and today is saturday.Hahahaha what a day i tell you. well, it started off with me waking up at 8.15, it seems that i could not sleep anymore after 8, weird but true, and then i went online, my usual norm and the started to put my clothes to wash, cook half-boiled eggs for myself and enjoy some tele. Then rushed to bath, and get ready before some guest arrived at my house. 1st guest was Sue which only drop by for a few minutes, before she had to leave for uni which she left to go for a trip to penang. And now she is in penang. The 2nd guest was none other than SR. Guide her to my place via the phone, the greatest invention, which by the way still wanting to get the Sony Ericsson K800i (original) but couldnt afford it at the moment. After she arrived we started to work on her laptop. Started to reformat her laptop, and she used my comp to go online. While she was going online and while her laptop is being reformatted, i went to dry out the clothes. I did put the clothes to wash earlier in the morning didnt i. Well i had to dry them of course.
So after drying them, i continued on working on ms SR's laptop until a call from ms DD, and LY. I had to guide them to my house also. They were bored and wanted to come by my house since SR is there. So i guide them and welcomed them into my humble abode. Which i am currently staying at alone. Sad but true since my mother is in China with my aunts and uncle and of course they went there to bring my grandfather there. Chatted abit there, and introduced them to my senile cats. Crazee Fucking Cats and really fucking crazy. You wanna know why!?!? Well i have to say that even though they are potty train and their potty is there for them to shit in, they shit on the staircase and 1 of them pee on newspapers. Its not funny, i have to clean up this mess, like how my mother usually had to handle, but since im home alone i have to do it. Damn it, it stinks and utterly disgusting. So far they have shat 3 times outside the potty box, and peed once on the newspaper. Very unpleased since my mother will only return home on tuesday night and its only saturday night.
After the little chit chat we went to the sushi that i always go nearby my house, as it is freshly-home-made sushi. They didn't eat that much. Anywayz after that we procedeed back to my place before embarking on the journey to Low Yat Plaza to get rid of SR's desktop. Went there in 2 different cars. I went in SR's car and DD drove behind with LY by her side. KL jam suxxxxxxx (that word reminds me of someone who has almost the same initials), as we were stuck in that jam for at least 40-45 mins. That sucks isn't it. But had an ok time chit chatting in the car as the traffic was slow. Then we reached our final destination, and we began searching for the 2nd-hand computer shops to sell off SR's desktop. We found a few but they didn't want to accept her desktop because it is too old. So we went searching for laptops as that was my main purpose there. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone le, hehehe. Found my neighbour working at 1 of the shops. There he recommended some laptops to us (the 3 girls and me), since LY wanted to get a laptop for herself as well. But her requirements is higher as she wants to use it for gaming purposes. That was the time i fixed my eyes on 2 different laptops, an Asus and a Compaq.
Those 2 laptops were nearly the same prices with an estimate of RM3500 (still within my extended budget, which caused me to cancel my desire for a K800i). Both are running on the new Intel Centrino Dual technology. So this is where i began to have some thoughts of buying my laptop at that moment. Realizing that i needed 2 days to draw out the money i put my decision on hold until i consulted with a good fren of mine who knew computers much better than i did. Then we walked around again searching for a 2nd-hand shop that would accept SR's desktop. We found 1 and quickly brought up the CPU for them to check. After a pain numbing 1 hour plus (for them to check the whole system out and other stuff), they only agreed to buy it from her for only RM70. Owh you heard me right the 1st time, RM70 man. Low Yat's 2nd-hand shop are conman. Feeling rather disappointed and furious SR and I went back to my place to finish up the installation of some programs on her laptop. It took us about 30 mins to get back to my place and another 20-30 mins to finalize her laptop on my end, since the rest she can do it on her own. And i send her off.
I went on to cook my dinner some eggs with cheese and mayo. I burnt the egg a little. A little my fault since the new wok is a steel and it gets hot easily. After cooking dinner, i waited for my good fren to return home and chat with him about the laptops that i saw on that friday. Then after a round of DotA, then i went to sleep. Then it was sat. I woke up, brushed my teeth, put the clothes yesterday that wasn't dried fully to be sunned for a few hours. Clean the plates and dishes i used the night before to cook my dinner. And then went out for breakfast, after a little morning tele. Had my breakfast after which i drove to the vet to get a pack of brand new sand for the cat's potty and back home. Cleaned up the potty of its old sand and all the shit inside. Throw the disgusting fouled-smelling stuff into the outside garbage, and then pour in the new sand into the potty. And then i folded the floormats that i had taken in prior to the washing of clothes the day before. Tried to watch some tele downstairs but failed to do so due to some unknown problems with the VCR player. This then lead me towards taking in the clothes that i had washed yesterday to be folded in the upstairs hall. By the time i finished this i realized that it was too late for me to go to Borneo Ink to see how busy it gets on weekends. So i decided to go tomoro, knowing that i am free (which i myseld set) to check Borneo Ink during its peak hours.
I received a message from my good fren about going to Low Yat. I agreed to it and we soon set out to low yat at around 2.50 in the afternoon. But to my dismay, 1 of my fucking cats shat on the floor less than a meter away from the potty that i had just replaced the sand with, the clean up was fucked up, but was able to clean it up and went off to Low Yat. BUT FUCK, there was another major fucking jam going to Low Yat from Edinburgh crossroad, all the way to Low Yat. I could have sworn we took about almost 40 mins stuck in that traffic jam since the traffic didn't moved at all for maybe some 5-10 mins for quite a distance. STUPID JAM, was suddenly not so jam as the rain stopped and the sun shined. Weird!!! We then went to park in Low Yat as what we usually do. I had my super late lunch at 3.50 in the afternoon with only a roti planta and a cup of Neslo ice to last me the whole morning (which i found insufficient since i had done alot of housechores). We ate at 1901 before we continued to go to the shop my neighbour worked at. talked abit about the laptops i eyed yesterday.
After a short chat, we went to another place to check out the price of laptops. Then he was talking about another Compaq laptop which uses the AMD Turion 64 X2 technology with a graphic card. This was a better deal than the 2 laptops that i had eyed yesterday because it had a graphic card, and the 2 i eyed did not have a graphic card, but an integrated graphic chip. I had to ask my fren at the shop. He told me that they had the same model, and i asked him why didn't he tell me about it. Hahahahaha what a way to go about it. I asked a bunch of other questions before following my good fren to buy his things, where i also got myself the external harddisk casing for RM175. But i have to say its pretty good quality, worth every penny of it, but yet to be tested. we then set off home. And i am back till now which i went out for awhile to get some dinner, and now i am here.
Sooooo my option is to get the Compaq laptop that uses the AMD chip or don't buy now and buy somewhere later. But now i have something else to think about. Buying the original Windows. I wanted the free Vista upgrade, but to my dismay, they only upgrade the Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE)(RM450) and the Windows XP Professional(RM490) to the Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows Vista Business respectively. The Windows XP Home Edition(RM300), doesn't get any free upgrades!!! That is sooo unfair. Soo that would be an extra amount of money that i need to fork out for some original stuff. Damn it. I wonder if the customs do check for pirated Windows on laptops or not. Aiyayayayyayayayayaya. So many things cost money, which i am lacking off. But worry not, lucky with this cheap laptop i and the opportunity cost, i think i might be able to get a Windows Vista. Hehehehe.
Well thats about it for now, i am pretty sleepy and hungry, and i am tired!!!
Sooo till next time, see ya!!!
I don't know how should i feel? feel sad because I could only sell it for RM70, or feel happy that i have got rid of it!!! But my dad did not scold me la!!:P
