RAM + Job Interview

Wohoooo ... At last I got my new RAM, just got it today from the seller (bought it from eBay). And my new laptop runs fast, smooth, and nice. I can't expect more than this. I got a nice laptop and spent only reasonable amount of money for them. Thanks to Mr. Zed for the help while choosing and driving me around the city looking for this (read previous post). And thanks to my beloved bf who did the effort of putting in the RAM for me. *huggles*

Just had a job interview this morning for Bakers Delight. I kinda like the place and the job they said I'm gonna do. Hopefully I will get the job, but I gotta wait for about a week before I can find out if I get the job or not. *fingers crossed

New Laptop ... La La La!!

At last last week on Friday I decided to go hunt for new laptop. I keep checking the DickSmith website for the availability of the laptop that I like and it seems that stock is getting rare, so I decided to hunt for the new one and sell my old one after. So I called around and go to some stores and every shop said the laptop I want is gone. Even the other one that is one of my choices is also not available. Until when I went to Harvey Norman, this shop has both my choices, so there I spent about an hour deciding. After I checked em out, I decided I did not like the one that I really want at the first place, and decided to go for my second choice. So here I am with my new laptop, brand new Compaq Presario M2217AP.

Come to think about it, it was the right decision to buy first. I was actually thinking to buy new one when I got money from selling old one. But since almost all shops has no more of them and my stupid PC's memory is broken, it is good to have this laptop to use. If not, I will be stuck with no computer. Hehehe.

Btw, I missed a job interview last Wednesday. Got a phone call from my workplace asking for someone to work that afternoon and since I have nothing to do, I decided to take it. Not long after that I got a phone call for a job interview that afternoon and I cannot take it, since I accept the offer to work already. I regret taking the job, but maybe it is not for me anyway.

Going to eat my dinner now ...

How Weird Are You?

You Are 40% Weird

Normal enough to know that you're weird...
But too damn weird to do anything about it!

What Gender Is Your Brain?

Your Brain is 46.67% Female, 53.33% Male
Your brain is a healthy mix of male and female
You are both sensitive and savvy
Rational and reasonable, you tend to keep level headed
But you also tend to wear your heart on your sleeve

Live and Death

I just talked to my best friend today, chatted with her for a bit when I got home from uni this evening. She asked me if I already read her latest post on her blog, which I already did. She talked about her close friend who died about a year ago from Leukemia. When I first found out about this, her death raised a lot of questions and thoughts in my head. Even until now, I still cannot asnwer them.

I was thinking how can someone's so young died that fast. Live is still a long journey for her to go through. I feel really sorry about her, I trully do. She still has a lot to try, a lot of things for her to do, a lot of people she hasn't met. I cannot imagine how do her families feel and think. I cannot imagine how painful it will be for her families and friends. I think we just cannot really guess or know when God will take our soul away. We cannot really guess and know when God will take away someone we love.

I also feel sad for my best friend, she lost me once when I left my country to study here in Perth and now she has to lost another one. She told me how hard it is for her to actually find someone again after I left, she said she was happy to find someone that she can really be close to. And then it was very tragic that she has to lost it so soon. I haven't even met this girl yet, I wish I had a chance to meet her once.

Sometimes I wish I can be back there in my country to help her, to talk to her, and just to accompany her to get through with this. But I just can't. I can only wish for all the best in the world for both of them.

*In memory of Novi. Eventhough I didn't get a chance to know you, I believe you are a wonderful person.

Desperation

I've been spending my weekend last week to watch Desperate Housewives. I had nothing else to do, since I finished watching my CSI. I didn't think that DH will be good, but it turns out to be really good in my opinion. DH is focusing on the lives of people living in a neighbourhood, but why is it unusual? The point of view of this series is unique, you see people's lives from a dead person view. And I kinda like this as the naration also using the voice of the dead peson so it really makes you think that the dead person roaming around, watching people, and talking about them. Some people might not like it, like a friend of mine said "It's too slutty". I honestly thought the same thing at first, but as I watched the first episode I started to think that this is just like a drama series and it has an interesting plot, kinda sad ending though. So there it goes I spent my weekend watching it. I cannot wait till the second season comes out, since the first season ended with lots of questions about what is happening with the people.

Talking about desperation, I kinda get tired nowadays. I started to do lots of things most of the days, getting very busy. Maybe I need more rest than usual, since I am doing lots more things than usual. Tried to play FlyFF yesterday, not very interesting for me, maybe I am bored with online games.

My mum and dad is currently in Turkey, they have a week tour around Turkey. So far they just don't like the food, probably because it's very different with our usual food. Mum told me that people said that Turkey is beautiful, so maybe the scenery will make up for the food after all.


des·per·a·tion
n.
1. The condition of being desperate.
2. Recklessness arising from despair.

How Business Is Done...

Jack, a smart businessman, talks to his son.

Jack: I want you to marry a girl of my choice
Son : "I will choose my own bride!"
Jack: "But the girl is Bill Gates's daughter."
Son : "Well, in that case..."

Next Jack approaches Bill Gates.

Jack: "I have a husband for your daughter."
Bill Gates: "But my daughter is too young to marry!"
Jack: "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank."
Bill Gates: "Ah, in that case..."

Finally Jack goes to see the president of the World Bank.

Jack: "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president."
President: "But I already have more vice- presidents than I need!"
Jack: "But this young man is Bill Gates's son-in-law."
President: "Ah, in that case..."

This is how business is done!!
