003: Disturbing Dreams

Jun 25, 2013 15:11

Today's schoolday was fun, but why do we get so much homework? :( I've been spending all of my time writing assignment after assignment! My computer's even protesting because I've been maxing out the RAM doing research~! I'm so tired by it all, but when I crawl off to bed, even that isn't restful ( Read more... )

school, homework, dreams, tired

If you're maxing out your computer's RAM just on research, you need more RAM.

As for sleep...try taking melatonin? It's the chemical in your body that's responsible for "shutting down" your mind enough for you to sleep, but if you can't seem to sleep on your own, you can buy some in the vitamin aisle in most grocery stores. Just make sure you have time to get a full 8 hours of sleep, because if you wake up before that, you'll be really groggy all day long.

How do I get more RAM~? Can I buy it online or do I need to go to a computer store and pay for it there?

And I don't particularly want to take medication unless it's getting too bad. My mum always said that there's a high chance of getting addicted to sleep medication, when I can sleep without it. But thanks, senpai.

Both are possible, but you gotta be sure you're getting the right kind for your machine, and that you're not getting more than your motherboard can handle. You don't wanna fry the thing, after all. If you want, though, I can take a look at it and show you exactly what you'll need. I can even install it for you after you get it.

Melatonin isn't a medicine, really, since it's something that naturally occurs in your body. And I don't think you can get addicted to it, but yeah, I hear ya. I only use it myself when I've had several nights in a row of little to no sleep.

Melatonin in pill form is more considered a vitamin than actual medicine, much like one would take iron or calcium pills to boost their system. And no, you can't get addicted to it like you can with medicinal sleep aids.

Okay...so I'd be able to get them from a pharmacy without prescription? Then, I'll probably go and purchase some the next time that I'm in town.

Yes. You should be able to find it among the other vitamins. No prescription is needed at all for it since it's considered a natural treatment. With luck, it'll work well for you and help you sleep through the night without any troubles.

Could you, senpai? I'd really, really appreciate it~! Thank you~! I don't know too much about computers, only how to use them, you see.

Hmm, maybe I will give it a try then...

Yeah, it's no problem. I grew up around computers and various other forms of technology, so I'm pretty good with stuff like that.

That's pretty neat, senpai~! Thank you, again~!

No problem at all :D Plus, I promise, doing it this way is a hell of a lot cheaper than taking it to a computer repair place and telling them you want more RAM installed. They'll charge ya like, double the parts cost, plus labor...

It's all about money nowadays, isn't it? Hmmph, I suppose they want to make a livelihood, but it's mean of them nonetheless. I can't afford to pay them that much, but maybe I can treat you to lunch or something? As a thanks/payment?

Yeah, it is. But even if you do have to go to a retail repair shop instead of having someone you know fix it up, it's a good idea to get estimates before any work is done. You can kind of shop around that way, and save yourself some money by going with the least expensive. It's not always a big difference, but every little bit helps.

XD You don't have to worry about something like that with me. I do it cuz I can, and cuz it keeps me in practice.

Okay...I'll remember that for next time, Mukahi-senpai~! It'll save me and mum a lot of money~!

Are you sure? I mean, it's really not a trouble and I'm really, really grateful for your help...

[ooc: What do you mean that Jackal's the only nice bloke you play? Gakuto's officially reached the hero-worship status in Tomo's eyes. If he continues being nice, Tomo might just get a crush on him XD]

^^

Yeah, I'm sure. I'm planning on building myself a computer before long, here, so brushing up on my skills will come in handy.

(ooc: XD That's only because nobody's given Gakuto a reason to be an ass. Except the little trolling in Sanada's uniform post..... ^^;; *pats Tomo* too bad for her he's as queer as they come XD)

That's pretty awesome, senpai! Building a whole computer from scratch? That's got to be difficult....but then, you seem to know what you're doing ~_^

(ooc: Haha, I guess he's just waiting to be an arse XD unlike Hiyoshi who has no qualms about it And she'd better get used to it, Tomo's going to have to hold herself up for a lot of disappointment as far as dates go XD)
