This was the conversation that took place while Sis #1 and I were going out for lunch this afternoon.

Phone: *rings*
Me: That must be Machines calling me about my MBP!
Caller ID: Nope. It's your Uncle.
Uncle: [...] Good news! [The Crap905] will be done next week.
Me: Oh, the part's back in stock? (It took this long because a certain part that ( Read more... )

I'M IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOTION.

So. 2009 just isn't being a bitch to my health, but it's also being an absolute asshole to my gadgets. The reason? First, the Crap905, as expected of its nickname, crapped out. Now, my MacBook Pro? Is DEAD. I wish I could follow that with a "LOL, just kidding!", but I CAN'T. BECAUSE I'M NOT ( Read more... )

Recent absence can be attributed to a lack of Internet at home. Tons of theories are being thrown about, but the one I have the fullest confidence in is that last month's bill wasn't paid on time because the error I've been getting isn't my good friend, "Can not get IP from PPPoE server", but rather, "PPPoE authentication fail". Bad English aside, ( Read more... )

In light of the recent Pokemon post on ohnotheydidnt, I dug out my old GBA and games to ~reminisce~ and ... well, bask in my ~awesomeness~, for I'd caught all 151 in Red, got Milotic, Kyogre, and Latias in Sapphire, and did well in LeafGreen. I loaded each one by one to check if the game still worked before I can commence the basking. And to my horror, when it ( Read more... )

Because I'm now in a retro swing of things, I visited my old journal (not elsalai, though I'm going through that as we speak), hoping to chance upon old songs I loved before. It worked (I got re-introduced to Orgy), but my God, I think my shoulders are on the verge of cramping from all the cringing I did while reading it. What the fuck was I on eight ( Read more... )

Guess what? After two days of getting it back from the service centre, my C905 is on the fritz again. The earpiece is busted: there's no sound on the other line when I make a call unless I turn on the loudspeaker. It turns out that units manufactured before a certain date are prone to this issue, and hey, mine happens to be one of those units. What ( Read more... )

I had such a happening night! A bus conductor scolded me, one of the Bus Buddies (whom I will refer to as "J" from here onward), and - get this! - two other people who did nothing but tried to defend us. See, the conductor thought J and I had jumped the queue as we were standing in another lane; in reality, we were standing there because we were ( Read more... )

It's amazing, how I don't seem to learn from my previous experiences: because of my inclination to procrastinate, sleep will be a lost indulgence for tonight, much like how it was for several nights last semester. The culprits? PP CA1 and NCT CA2. I'm stuck with the former - and have been since this afternoon (this is becoming more trouble than it ( Read more... )
