Recounts and Ramblings #11

Story of my laptop
Before anything, I have to tell a tragedic story revolving around my laptop. Basically, it suffered quite a lot of things:

1. Red line across the screen. Don't know why.
2. AirPort card (internet wireless card) spoilt. Computer unable to sense it.
3. Screen problems. Once I put my screen down and I open it again, the screen no longer screens anything.
4. Water incident.

So I forgot to mention in my previous blog that I put my laptop and water bottle in the same bag like I've done for a year plus, and on that day the bottle decided to spill. The laptop could not be turned on anymore after that. Good thing was that I backed my files up just a few days before that. Bad thing is that the Apple people claimed that my laptop cannot be fixed. So my dad, who took a leave, decided to bring my laptop to Sim Leng to fix. And it got fixed well. Revealed that it was just the graphics card and screen that spoilt (solved problem 2 and 3 as well). Costed $360 though. But I heard that's a lot cheaper than other places, some costing up to $700+. But that guy forgot to check the AirPort card -.- So I'm probably not bringing my laptop till the AirPort get fixed.

Story of me quitting everything
I've decided to quit MMA because I never felt like going. It's strange, though, because I enjoyed it. Maybe it's the social factor again. In the first place, I'm the only one who joined without knowing anyone there beforehand, other than one who's a senior. But that's an excuse, I know. Still, I don't look forward to it anymore, and the reason I joined in the first place was "for fun".

And I feel like I'm always quitting stuff. First was the only job I've ever had: NTUC, which I quit after just a week. Next was BP mentoring. And now this. Forget it, no more CCAs for me. But another legit excuse can be that I've already have enough on my plate and some free time will be really helpful.

Some final thank-yous for my birthday
Even though it had passed so long ago. But I want to thank Guangyi, zixing, and the rest too for the messages in the card. And Guangyi, weijian, and ruwen for the One Piece going merry ship which I've wanted. And zixing for the book which is rather interesting so far.

Feel like doing some shopping for clothes items. My clothes keep disappearing. Either that or I've lost interest in them.

That's it for this post then.
