~ Yay! I'm back! ~
11:41:00 pm
Finally my PC is working again!! And finally I can blog again... *Hehe*...
My PC decided to screw up again yesterday and no matter how many times both my sister and I tried to troubleshoot it, it just refused to budge... Even when it did get switched on, it only load Windows up halfway and then went into an 'asystole' mode...
By the way, 'asystole' in laymen's term means dead... You know when you watch movies or TV, when a person on the hospital bed gets hooked up to a machine and when the person dies, it gives off a "Ttttttttiiiiiiiii" sound... Yup, my PC sounded just like that...
And so, the both of us went all the way to Sim Lim Square to get it repaired... Imagine two ladies carrying one very heavy CPU... Thank goodness there's such a thing called 'taxi'... *Hehe*... And we got the CPU checked and stuff to find out the root cause of the problem...
And so we found out that the system is very, very slow cuz there were too many programmes in our PC... *Haha*... And also the graphics card was faulty so they had it changed for us... Anyway, since I didn't have much space left in the PC, I decided to get an 80GB external hard disk drive (HDD)...
The total cost for everything: $189... $30 for the service charge for checking of the PC, $60 for the new graphics card, $99 for the external HDD... Okay lah... Lesser than what I've expected it to be...
Anyway, that wasn't all that I've spent on today... I spent another freaking $140 at Mustafa Centre... Yup, Mustafa Centre... I think I've just found a shopping paradise there... The things there are damn cheap... And you wouldn't believe how I went aisle to aisle at the chocolate section there and putting almost all chocolates (okay, I'm a little exaggerating... *Hehe*) into the shopping basket...
By the way, my sister told something kinky to me but it shall just be a little secret between the both of us... *Heh*...
And oh, something weird happened while we were shopping there... There was this one African Negro guy who stood beside my sis at the electronic section at Level 4... And he went, "Excuse me, can I get to know you?"... I was standing beside her and I was like, "????"... In the end, the both of us just walked away and he still managed to say, "Don't walk away"... Gosh! Thank goodness, he didn't stalk us... *Phew*...
There's so many things that I wanna blog about but I just couldn't find the time... I shall do it one at a time... In the meantime, I shall stop here... My fingers are getting tired...
Anyway, I wanna do system recovery to my PC... Yup, I wanna clear my whole PC up... Make it just like brand new... *Hehe*... Take care all!
