Technological Wrecker

It's true that with the help of modern technology, our work has been well improved lah. We get to msn, save millions of pictures taken with friends outside with the help of a digital camera, surf on handphones and pdas, but what happens when all these items break down? We'll end up feeling like we've lose a hand or a leg I tell you.

I don't know why as an IT student myself, I still don't embrace new gadgets like a geek who will go "Hooray! A new item for me to use that will help me!" My parents are pleased with my behaviour cause they know they won't have to fork out money at all as I do not have such expensive desires or the need to own them. hah. My dad yesterday even urged me to get a MP3 player but I really don't see the reason why I should. I retorted back to dad: "I got discman what, then can play so many CD not so laychey must on computer and load so much crap inside. And I don't hear so many chap-pa-lang music at one go lor, I listen to one singer at a time." Daddy said... "Eh you are worse than your father you know, at least I rather get a more high tech handphone with MP3 player in it and I appreciate the never-ending improvement made to technology..." Hiakz. Whatever it is, I don't want to burden myself with endless questions the minute I buy a new gadget it is a headache for me to learn how to use it. I purposely bought a cheap and easy to use digicam with no brand cause I tried to use a Canon powershot and failed to learn how to use it effectively lor. Aiya, hard for me to change if I like something that is easy to use.

Anyway, I just want to conclude that I've lost a hand and a leg now. My laptop went bonkers on me by removing the files I save in "MY DOCUMENTS" and "MY PICTURES", and it failed to load the profile or my user account, and my operating systems sometimes cannot load. Aiya, sibei cham leh when such things strike I feel helpless cause I study how to make computer programs, but not study how to repair computers mah. Now even my internet addresses all the URL history also gone cannot remember those blog address I visit then die ah... Well, sorry if I don't update often lah huh. I'm gonna find the IBM helpdesk number and sent the damn thing for repair man. and I can't seem to find the receipts that I have leh. hahhhh. but the IBM did serve me well for 3 years, its high time he starts to break down. see wad i mean? buy so expensive thing end up oso can spoil... might as well buy clothes ahhh... can last longer... hahaha!

Okay my handphone oso spoil lah, but this time is when I answer my phone I can hear the person clearly, but the fella on the other line keeps saying "Hello, you tok veri soft i cannot hear you can you please speak up?" I'm literally have to scream into my mouth piece everytime i answer the phone and everyone on mrt will tink im some ah lian looking for pple to find someone to cut the head lidat. I suffering with that phone for 2 wks already. cannot tahan lah today must send for repair. if must pay money to repair i decide to get the cheap cheap flip phone from samsung that X640 or X460 i don't remember those damn numbers lah. with the increasing amount of mobile thefts, lemme tell u, i wan to prevent such things happening to me cos i am already veri paranoid when im alone going home at nite. hahah.. and now if you know me well enough, i don't wan pda wanna be hp cos i duno how to operate it, i dun wan mp3 player or camera type of hp cos i already haf discman and basic digicam, so i wan a damn simple to use phone with a colorscreen cos i dun wan pple to laff at me and tink im frm a stone age era hahaha. and i wan LCD infront of the flip fone so that i know which idiot is calling me before picking up. and i like to go "hello XXX" instead of just "hello." haiyahhh.. i love my current fone so much, why must it break down on me? i have so many idiots telling me to change a new phone since my 2 year plan has long been gone and over... but i cant find a easy to use and pretty fone lor. i hate nokia ok dont ask me buy that stupid brand. always keypad spoil and my bf use abt 1 year 4 mths tell me his phone suddenly shut off when second line cum in. siao boh? haha all i can say is ah.... I'm a gadget wrecker. I wreck whatever I use so I wan to keep things cheap so that when it spoils or lost, me no heart pain.
