I like my new comp. It's nice and fast. The only drawback is that it's a desktop.. so it sits on my desk.. away from my bed XD I was too used to surfing on my bed on my laptop. Both computers are networked now. But I still can't figure out how to share the internet connection with just 1 IP.
Soul Calibur II is pretty. I love Kilik. But my bf beat me 5 times in a row and I never won once. So, I'm sulking right now XDD Everytime he tried to hug me, I wouldn't let him. So now he's whining and saying "You hate me" repeatedly. I'm mean.

I just got home from work -_-;; I'm so tired. Will have a lot of work too tomorrow.

I got my copy of soul calibur II yesterday. I had reservation so I got a bonus artbook ^^ It's pretty! I haven't played it yet though. Instead, I was playing secret of mana emulator with my bf XD After all this time I still love that game.

My new comp is running now! Yay! Didn't think I'd be able to build it without a comp whiz around. My bf's only done it once. And I've never done it before. I feel so proud of myself. Let's see if I can remember the specs. It's AMD athlon 2.8, 512 mb ram, 120g hard disk, asus motherboard with nvidia sound and video, logitech multimedia keyboard, logitech optical mouse, with sony 17" flat panel monitor. I love my monitor, it' so pretty ^^ I also got sony dvd burner :D I'm happy. But I'm also broke ^^;;; I'll take a picture of my comp when my desk is cleaner XP

In response to Minmei's entry. I wish I could have my palm tattoed with "GTHYB" = "Go to hell you bitch/bastard". I can just show it to people I hate. I was extremely irritated with a customer on friday. She brought a huge printing job that had to be fedexed for monday arrival. Which means I had to finish it on that friday it can be shipped that day or on saturday. And she brought the job LATE FRIDAY! I was so pissed. As if everybody's schedule revolves around hers! She's stupid and inconsiderate. I know what she thinks. She didn't think that the stuff she brought wasn't a lot of work. Well, she needs to work at a copy shop for a year to know how much work is it. I hope she'll get hit by a truck and die painfully.

The parts for my new computer arrived 2 days ago. Yay! But I still don't have a monitor yet. I'm gonna go out and look for one today. Now I'm just wondering if I can build it myself or if I should just ask for help. And I forgot to order DVD-rom drive and floppy drive. My bro did all the ordering online, and as soon as we hit the submit button we felt like there's something missing. Oh well.

So I spent some time with my bro this weekend. We went to metreon. And there's this thing called Reactix (IIRC). It's a projector with motion sensors. So it projects and image on the floor, and the objects reacts to our movements. There's one with floating jelly bellies If you try to kick the jelly belly, it'll bounce off on the screen. It's pretty cool. That's my bro in the pic btw ^^

I went to the dentist today. My tooth filling fell off last week. The dentist is my boss' wife. So I might get a discount or not get charged at all O_o; Anyway, she said my tooth needs a crown made. And she used partial anesthesia so half of my face was numb for a couple hours. It didn't feel good. I almost bit my tongue a few times when talking. It'll take 10 days for the lab to make the crown. So I'll have to go back on sept 10th.

My little brother's visiting me for a day before he goes to indo for vacation. So we're spending some time together and went shopping (again! XD). But I get to spoil him by buying him whatever clothing he wants. He's not the shopper type anyway, and he said he only has 1 pair of trousers left O_o; It's good to see him, but the only drawback is that I can't see my bf this weekend, because he's supposedly my 'secret' bf XP Yeah, I'm still keeping him a secret from my (indonesian) friends and family. It sucks.

Saw this earlier today when I was going home. It's a tram/cable car, but shaped like a boat! It's the first time I've seen it. It even has a horn like a ship that went "toot!" XD Wonder when they started having that kind of cable car.

Used the recovery CD and now my comp's running again. I had to re-install a lot of programs though. At least I didn't lose any file. Phew.

Went on a shopping spree today after work. Here's what I got. Lorac lip/cheek stain and compact mirror from sephora, futurama volume 2 from virgin megastore (it's on sale!), a cocktail shaker set from urban outfitters, eminem cd from borders, and underwear from victoria's secret. I don't even know why I shopped today. I don't even need these stuff. I guess I just felt like it. Shopping always makes me feel better. It's like getting presents from myself XD

My laptop's dying. It was running really slow, so I suspected that there's an unwanted program running in the background. And I found a program called USB detector that I don't recall ever installed before. So my bf uninstalled it and restarted the laptop. After that, the laptop lost all hardware information that was already installed and started installing them again, such as the mouse and the screen monitor. But now it's all messed up. The screen's only 16 color and smaller than 600 x 800. I need a new computer... I'm still deciding if I should ask my friend to build one for me or get a pre-built one from companies like dell or gateway.

Today, I became a kid again. I went to target and got myself a travel size magna doodle (loved that thing as a kid), and a posable spongebob XD But later on I also went to an alcoholic beverage supermarket called beverages and more, and bought a couple booze. A raspberry thing to make cosmopolitan and vanilla rum. I'm planning to make a mini bar at home and learn to make drinks.

More than a month after my last post. Well, you guys have been quiet too. Anyway, not much happened to me anyway. But I found out that I bring bad luck to my bf's car! Okay, his car is a 10-year-old accord. But when he used to go to school, he's always driving about 45 mins to his school and back, and nothing ever happened. But now, everytime something bad happens to his car is when I'm present. Yesterday, he got a flat tire when he was driving me home from dinner. Before that, a few weeks ago, part of his tire came off when we're driving over to a friend's house. And then, you can see the entry on may 5, his car got broken into and the window was smashed. And that wasn't the first time, it happened once before. When I used to live in San Francisco (I live in daly city now), his playstation2 was stolen from his trunk when he was at my place! It's bad enough that I always have bad luck, now it's rubbing off on my bf's car.
The worst part of yesterday's flat tire though, it that I won't be able to see him until he gets it fixed, which may mean until next week. And it's a weekend!! And I'm stuck at home with nothing to do. And I've been looking forward to this weekend because I've been having a tough week at work too T_T_T_T_T I want my own car....
