Resuscitated

At last,i can heave a sigh of relieve.My pc is back to working order again with a new cd burner to boot.Undoubtedly,all these come with a price - they cost me a whopping RM630 in total.Quite a heavy price to pay if u asked me but this particular pc still has a good 3-4 years ahead of it.Hence,i don't mind forking the extra dough.I'm not a hardcore gamer,all i need is a pc that can let me online and is able to handle basic entertaiment like playing music/movie.

It may sound outrageous but i can confidently say you can hardly find me in the cyber cafe blasting terrorists or 'pawning' a certain drew ranger,medusa,etc.All those online and pc gaming hardly entice me.A trait that i've no answer for.It's in the genes i guess.Of cause,i don't shut myself totally from it.Once in a while,i'll be in cyber cafe upon my friends' request.But i used to be an avid gamer when i was a kid.Micro genius,nintendo,sega and ps1 were the names that struck a chord with me.I can keep myself pretty occupied whenever those consoles were within my reach.

There was an occasion when i sneaked into a neighbourhood arcade centre to have a few rounds of street fighter.Actually,i was forbidden to do so by my mom but i ignored her rule nonetheless.Luck was not on my side that day,my mom soon found out about it and caught me red-handed.The first thing she did was to pull my ear,hard.What's worse,it was done right in front of public!My reputation as an innocent kid to the strangers had been tarnished!Never had i been so embarassed in life.Right at that moment,i was worrying bout where i'm gonna hide my face the next time i'm in the neighbourhood.I was seven when it happened.

Yeah,my broadband connection has been restored as well.After bout like a fortnight of frustating wait.Funnily enough,the modem jolted back to life minutes before mr.tmnet arrived(i obviously didn't know mr.tmnet works on sunday too).The lan light has reappeared.I was freaking worried he would treat my complaint as a hoax and refuse to change the faulty modem.However,when i hooked it up to my laptop,it didn't work - just the perfect problem i needed!

I did a fine job in convincing him to change it in the end.There was no way i'm gonna use back the crazy modem which had the tendency to switch between working order and failure effortlessly.Anyway,all the tmnet modems especially the current 'made in china' batch,are of questionable quality.Time will tell when my newly changed modem will start to wreck havoc.

Another thing,lamps' bungalow had been burgled last week.The burglars had carted off two of his sports car and some electrical items,among other things.Luckily,he and his gf were not harmed in any way.At time of blogging,almost all of the stolen items including the cars have been recovered.Lamps is now pleading the burglars to return back his custom-made adidas predator football boots.On a brighter note,lamps is gonna be a proud father soon as his gf is pregnant with his first child.
