Ah hah !!! i have finally bought my laptop and i sure have taken my time to blog about it. It was a short journey buying this laptop of mine. As that saturday journey to Low Yat, i went back to Low Yat again on sunday with my friend and have a look at more choices of laptops around and found another laptop with better specifications at another shop, and not the shop my friend worked at. So i went to ask my friend about the same specifications of that laptop and said he has it and could sell it to me with a cheaper price, which i agreed to. Then my friend and i we talked about it and i had to slowly think about it as well. i took the whole night thinking it through. And for that price RM2999 for the laptop and an additional 1GB ram, i think that the price is quite worthwhile. So, i decided to buy it. On sunday itself i had drawn out some money and on monday i drew out the remaining money that i needed to make the purchase. So on monday i drove myself to Low Yat, find my friend and got him to sell me the laptop. it took about 30 minutes to settle everything. With the laptop, there was a free hamper from HP. This hamper was also in my consideration to buy the laptop. After settling all the things with my friend, he told me that if i had bring my girlfriend (Sue), i would have received a free RM100 petrol voucher, as it seems that there is a HP fair at the concourse floor of Low Yat on that day with the theme "Empowering Women With IT". He also told me that i could get a second hamper from the HP fair downstairs. Which i did went to get and got another hamper. Owhh im so lucky !!! Well the below is the pics i taken on my laptop and the things in the hamper.
That is my laptop, on my bed of course. I dun have a proper place to take the pics of my laptop.
This is when it is open, nice black ans slick isn't it!!!
See, see it is an AMD Turion 64 X2 processor and has a NVIDIA graphic card built into the machine. Hehehehe i likey !!!
This is the box that my laptop was in. Big box for a little slick laptop.
This here is the 1st hamper i got together with the laptop. It is called the Santa Brief Case. The items below are the things found in the Santa Brief Case.
I dunno what crap is that, but it is suppose to hold down the mouse wire or something like dat.
That there is a soft calculator, which could be bent into half.
A free Creative optical mouse, which is really good. I dont have to buy an extra mouse for my laptop !!
That is a small little bag to carry small little things maybe like USB hubs and stuff.
This has dual usage, which is to wipe the laptop, and also as a wristpad. Nice and cute isn't it?
This here is a USB hub which looks rather weird doesn't it ?!?!?
I dunno what this is for !
Look look, i have a free head set with microphone on it also from Creative. I don't have to buy another !!!
This is obviously something you guys would know !!
That is a clock, a cure looking 1 with a little chicken in the middle. But it is hard to use!
This is the 2nd hamper that i got from the fair at the concourse fl;oor of Low Yat that day. It is called the October thrill.
The first thing free would be the 512 PenDrive inside!!
That is another headset, but it is a Sonic Gear headset.
USB light, to light up the dark days!
A vacuum cleaner to clean the keyboard im guessing.
A USB fan to cool down those hot days.
An extra numerical pad to use like a normal keyboard.
This here is another USB hub that i got from the October thrill hamper.
Speakers, obviously !!!
The free laptop bag that my friend gave, courtesy of the shop!
This here is the external harddisk casing, meant for only the 3.5" harddisk. Hehehehe.
There are a few other things inside those hampers, which i forgot to take a pic of. Busy ma me, with work and stuff. And by the time i get back i am pretty tired. But i still wanna play a round of DotA before i sleep. Hehehehe.
Well since i am here already, why not i talk abit about work. Work as usual is tiring, because the most work is always in the morning, as i have to clear up the garbage from the previous nights except for sundays where i have to clear up the garbage when the shop closes as monday is our day off! Other days pretty much every morning i am there, i would compress the garbage and then dump it. Then i would have to mop the floor. Usually the sweeping would be done by Lina, the youngest tattoo artist there. She consider herself as the worker there, which i myself would consider her as my boss. Then there is the eldest brother Eddy who tattooed me, as he is the big boss, he doesn't really do much except doing things related to the tattooing and thats about it.
After the mopping and stuff i would have to see what else i need to do, like the garbage bag for each garbage can is put, and a few other stuffs like is the plastic cups meant for customers to use to get water for themselves to drink is available and stuff. And then i have to get the order for lunch, which Eddy would usually orders alot. Sometimes Lina doesn't order anything so it isn't so bad. So i would be running off to get their food and rushing back to get the nice cool air of the tattoo studio's air con. Hehehehe. Basically i have a bunch of work there, and sometimes i don't have any work. But i have to make sure the appointments are set nicely for Eddy and Lina. Boy is Eddy sure fully booked till after christmas. Well, just take it easy la this job, as it is not that tough after the morning part, which is usually the 1st 2 hours or so.
Then it is more relaxing, where i can do my own stuff sometimes. But Lina is a cool boss! So is Eddy but he is usually more into his own tattooing stuff so it is best not to bother him. Hehehehe, nothing much else i can talk about my work, cos i consider the rest that i do as P&C. Soo hush hush.....
Anywayz thats about it for today, i gotta go for a medical check up appointment at 1.30 pm. I have loads to do but so little time to do it. Having searched for my place in Australia also has come to a halt due to some unforseen circumstances. Sooo lets just hope that my good luck would hold up for a long long time. As how i was lucky to pass all my subjects so far. Only left 1 more subject which is still not known as the results for that subject is still not out. Till then i hope my good luck holds !!!!
See ya !!!!
