I've been quite unlucky since the start of this lunar new year... In the small hours of the third day of the year, my computer just froze suddenly while I was playing Dota halfway... Damn.. And I was on a winning streak... The worst part was not that, I restarted my computer and to my horror all I see was garbage!!! Square boxes, misplaced letters and unidentifiable symbols replaced what was supposed to be normal boot up messages...
Other than the above mentioned incident, a few other irritating things happened throughout these days as well... It might had just been a coincidence, but why does all these have to happen when I'm about to hand in (due date for SIM is today) my assignments? Though I might not be able to hand it in even if my computer wasn't dead, still there IS a chance right? Nah... I can only blame it on my laziness for not completing my assignments in time... If I had really wanted to do it, I could have done it on any of the computers ( 3 PCs and 3 + 1 laptops; LAN party is on every Saturday and eve of public holidays when my brother-in-law comes over) I have...
Went over to Sim Lim Square with my graphics card today, was quite worried as I had already thrown my receipt away even though it is still under warranty... I explained my plight to the shopkeeper I bought it from and he recommended me to go to the distributor to try my luck; something I seem to be lacking these days... It's a good thing the distributor was just upstairs; I hurried over to accept my fate... The staff took a look at my card and proceeded to test it, he then he replaced it with another one at zero cost!!! I was elated man, everything was over in less than 10 mins and so here I am typing on my computer... You'll never know how great it is to see my computer start up again; I hope none of you have to experience this...
The first half of this entry was hand-written in McDonald's this afternoon, so what was I doing there? I was waiting for time to pass... Was supposed to have a MTV Dance workshop this evening, so I just stayed in that area to wait... Before that I went over to Junan's office to collect some materials and she asked me why I joined so many kinds of activities, want to show off my talents is it? My reply was simple, to learn... No matter how talented you are, you still have to learn it from somewhere right? I'm not saying that I'm talented in all those activities I take part in, but I'll never know if I don't try right?
View of the dance studio before we started...
2nd view of the studio; I'm in this shot...
The above are views of the studio before we started, I only have these 2 pictures as I can't be taking any while I'm dancing right? The first part was hip hop and the second was jazz... For a person who totally can't dance, jumping straight into it wasn't easy... I'm glad the rest of them from the singing club weren't any good either... To quote one of them, "Some people are talented in dancing, some are just talented in singing..." Haha... It was quite funny, since the gang of us were like clowns during the hip hop session... The rest of the people in that room are from the dance club, with a selected few who weren't but joined because they like dancing... It was thus quite obvious that we can't dance for nuts... The jazz session wasn't that bad since the instructor went through it little step by litte step and the moves weren't too difficult in general... Most of us could get it, so it was better to see everyone moving in unison... almost... In conclusion, dancing is really fun and I'm really tempted to join... However, I just don't have that much time to join so many activities...
Now that my machine is up again, I can start doing my assignments... Deducting weekends, I have 6 more days to complete them... Should be enough since the previous one was finished in 4 days... Mock exams starts next month, so many things I'll like to do, but not enough time to do all of them... Then again, it shouldn't be a problem if I'm not that lazy... But if I'm not that lazy, I'm not me anymore... What to do?!?
