Internet Free Week

Life

I’m officially going to enjoy a Internet Free Week(tm), at least when I’m at home. So don’t expect to see me online when I’m back home. 😉

Knowing the fact that I will be heading back to my hometown to check the new house next week, I won’t be able to enjoy much Internet anyway (in case my broadband account is back up).

So~ it’s a good time for me to enjoy traditional media at the moment :). Reading books, drawing stuff, do some writing…

Till then, the only constant nagging on my head is to work things out as soon as possible to have the Internet back up. Hmm… contradictions :p.

Back To The Drawing Board

It’s day four since my Internet was down. And I’m to lazy to swap my 56K modem back in so I’m literally out of touch from the Internet.

I forsee that I won’t be back up until TMNet settles the glitch, which might be from now to a few days (weeks?) later. But I’m confident that this will get settled soon :).

Till then, updates during office hours! 😛 (Don’t bring that business/employee ethical issues, please? :p)

In other news, I’m still kept to my toes and pressing matters are on in the office. Stress and challenges are piling up at the moment when I’m close to having my job confirmed.

Just hope for the best :).

Tight Rope

I was pretty much on my toes the whole day just now X_X||.

First off my ADSL broadband connection suddenly went off yesterday, which all I can see my modem is that the ADSL light just kept on blinking, which really doesn’t serves much of a help, really.

But I’m too tired to care about surfing, so I was thinking of leaving it alone and call the tech support later.

Then today, it had been really hectic as there’s a ISO certification meeting tomorrow and there’s some last minute issues, hitches and glitches that really made me running round the office in full circles to iron things out.

Then there’s just many work related stuff that I needed to catch up, which is really stressful and I don’t really …

Take A Chance! - Splurging ^-^|| -

Oops! I did it again!

Anyway, just went to PC Fair just now (it’s basically a very popular computer shopping cash and carry event in Malaysia). The original intent: My sister asked me to get her some MP3 players and portable storage (or also known as USB sticks/memory).

After some hours of strolling, the best deals for pure music players without all those fancy colours screens have to be these from Duraplus:

'Duraplus D727'

DURAPLUS D727 - RM106

'Duraplus D788'

DURAPLUS D788 - RM119

These little beauties are small, inexpensive, and does impressive work on MP3/WMA playing, voice recording and plays clear FM radio. Definitely recommend that you check them out straight from DURAPLUS themselves (somewhere in between Hall 3 and 4).

Then the unexpected splurge of the day which make me back in debt (well… kind of …

Nothing For Certain

It’s definitely a totally different stack of cards that I have to deal with, with some sudden/unexpected changes that is going to occur in the future.

I’ll leave the details until the time comes.

It’s Hard Work

It seems that every single time I had holiday and that I had no activities or programmes scheduled, I’d end up doing some major house keeping. ^-^||

Same goes for today, and it’s can be quite tasking.

As much as one of my own small little dreams is to own a house of my own, somehow thinking about the house upkeep and the work behind it does seem kinda… umm, intimidating :p.

Maybe I’m better off planning for an apartment instead? Does made me wonder though :).

Virgin Flight

Time to rewind the tapes again, been very tired these days X_X.

Anyway, apparently I got my chance of flying more sooner than what I have expected :D. Not to mention that I get to go to Tioman Island (one of the most famous tourist destination in Malaysia, popular for it’s beautiful sea and beaches), which is one place that I really wanted to go for a long while.

And so the story goes that on Friday, my boss wanted to fly (as in, as a caption/pilot) and he offered Francis to fly with him. And for some reasons I got tagged along by him. Originally my boos is reluctant to take me on at first, knowing that I haven’t flew before and that the weather is pretty bad these days (with …

A Complete Blank

To be extremely honest, I weren’t feeling good today… been feeling like all emo. Not that’s I’m sad or depressed, just that I get a little bit frustrated over myself.

I think that’s about it.

Music Overhaul

Oh crap! I accidentally scratched my (miss)understood CD T__T. The reflective part, as in. As much it seemed that only the surface paint got scratched and it still plays perfectly, but still… heart breaks

Well… the only consolation is that the CD will be quite easily available for a long time to come, but then again, it’s still quite expensive.

Anyway…

Currently spending time converting all my CD collection to AAC format, as my iPod is currently running out of space. Considering the fact that it almost saves me 10MB per CD and that I have about 130+ in my collection, that’s about 1 extra GB of space for more music.

But GAH! It’s a lot of work.

… And it better don’t scratch another of my prized CDs T-T.

Shopped List

Let’s see… it’s not even the beginning of April and most parts of my salary went to my expenses. Well, it’s a good thing that I’m able to pay off my bills without any debt :), and not to worry about them for the rest of the month.

Went shopping today for a surge protector for my electronics (read: computers), together with a new switch and a network card which is replacing the burnt network card of my OTHER computer. Well, for one thing, I think I might not buy another Linksys product: they seemed to be waaaay too sensitive to power surges.

Then, I have been splurging money on CDs again :p. Grabbed Ayu’s (miss)understood fresh from the shelves today :), then grabbed Penny Tai’s Crazy Love (戴佩妮 // 爱疯了 …
