Weekend again

Have been working with my laptop for nearly the whole day. I have reformatted it, to solve all of the problems, and return it to the best (I think so..) performance it can perform.

Did not go to work today (Friday actually) as I was lazy, and also had fever this morning. Slept till 10am+ without feel refreshed, as I was actually busy replying sms for the whole morning.

I planned to go home at first but lastly I did not. Why? First, my house is under a small renovation. Actually just re-paint the walls. So it is kinda messy and make me quite reluctant to go back. Some more, I am really tired and I think it is better to stay here for some rest.

1st of Feb is a Thursday, also a public holiday. I am planning to get one day leave of the following Friday and go home for spring cleaning. CNY is just around the corner. Ans it is time for me to clean the house and prepare for the celebration of CNY.

I am so sleepy at this moment. A lot more to be blogged. Continue later, when I have had enough sleep.

It is weekend again. I really love weekends A LOT!!!

Absolute Solution

A reformat solves all of the problem =)

Borrowed the CD's from Yuing. Spent some time to figure out the way on doing the reformat. DIY is not easy but I am glad that I am able to do it at last.

Fed up

I have find out the reason of the numerous pop-ups when I browse internet. It is the cdnup.exe in the folder CNNIP which cannot be deleted, no matter how many methods I have tried.

Have been trying to remove them for the whole night, but still fail =(

Sigh... Can anyone tell me how to remove it effectively from my computer?



*edited*

I was so desperate until I put "Who can tell me the way to effectively delete cdnup.exe from my computer?" as my personal message in msn messenger.

JJ is a nice guy. This genius in computer helps me a lot and providing me some ways to try to get rid of it, but still comes to nothing.

It was 2am+ when I finally gave it up. Exhausted... Maybe will continue it again some other time.

Thanks to JJ~~~

Wonderful Saturday

Had a wonderful Saturday, though had insufficient sleeping time.

Woke up at 8am to call the Air Asia regarding the problem I encountered last night in the online booking procedure. I booked 4 tickets from KL to Sibu on 28th of July. No itinerary is given even though the money is credited from my account. Their call centre is lousy. Kept letting me wait and listen to their advertisement as all of their sales agents are "busy due to the poor services and lousy network plus the problematic booking procedures overwhelming responses to their promotion".

I woke up early in the morning as their call centres operate from 8am to 9am. I made four calls, but ended up listen to more than 3 minutes of advertisement and still did not get to the sales agents. Gggrrrrr...

Luckily I found an email in mailbox with an attachment of the itinerary. Well, I did check my mailbox several times when the initerary page did not show up after the payment is done last night. But there was nothing there! Finally I discovered that the email is sent to me at 3am, about 5 hours after I made my booking =(

So, I proceed with the other two bookings, one is from Sibu to Kuching on 30th of July, and one is from Kuching to KL on 2nd of Aug. The former one is same like what happened yesterday where payment is done but did not lead me to the itinerary page (but this time I get the email 5 minutes after I made the booking). The latter is okay and finally lead me to the initerary page after I made the payment.

Anyway, I have to say that they are actually doing great promotion where air tickets are FREE and only need to pay for the tax. It costs me only RM170 to fly from KL to Sibu, from Sibu to Kuching, and from Kuching to KL.

Shall I ignore the unpleasant and traumatised booking experience as they are giving me free air tickets?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Planned to continue sleeping after I have settled the booking thing. But I could not sleep anymore as I am totally awakened by the booking thing. So, I decided to do something to save my computer.

Well, it has significantly slower performance and a lot of unwanted pop-ups even though pop-up blocker is on. Is it due to adware or spyware and dunno-what-ware? (I am kinda idiot in computers so I just try whatever I know.)

It seems better after I downloaded and installed an adware scan and removal program. I ran several scan and many "rubbish" is detected and deleted. Computer's performance improves after that =)

Mona dated me for lunch. She came to pick my up with her company car, a big green color Unser. We went to the Johnny's Restaurant again for steamboat. But this time we only ordered a steamboat for 1 pax plus another set meal as we want to try their nasi goreng belacan.

Their menu is nice. All of the food is nicely shown in pictures. Everything looks appetizing and so tempting, which makes you have the urge to order everything!!!

The food is superb! Ate to my heart's content again!

I am already falling in love with the restaurant~~~ Haha...

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Went to the English class after lunch. I was so tired, as I slept late and woke up so early. Luckily the class is interesting. (Or maybe I should say, the classmates are funny!)

We have to do group discussion again. This time is to give explanation and instructions on doing an experiment. My fellow classmates will be my students. But Alvin told us to pretend as naughty students who will kacau the class and ask a lot of questions in the class to interrupt the teacher.

So, I really did my best to be the naughtiest student in the class. Hope that my "teachers" will not hate me =p

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I was exhausted after the class. Went back to my room immediately instead of joing my friends for dinner. I intended to nap for a while. But then Mona asked me out again, for dinner this time.

Well, she wanted to bring me to SS2 to try Yong Tau Foo, which she mentioned to me in the noon. Her invitation shoke all my sleepy bugs away =p

So, we, together with her colleague, Karen, went to this restaurant (I did not notice the name!) which sells Yong Tau Foo. What is interesting with this restaurant is that it is halal, which means that Muslims can also try the chinese cuisine here. This is a great point for improving interactions in a multi-racial society.

The food is nice. Yong Tau Foo, deep-fried dumplings and especially the honey chicken. Yummie~~~ My stomach was nearly burst after I finished everything.

Hmm... I have had so much fattening food today. 罪孽深重啊……

But eating is indeed a great thing in life!!! It is the best enjoyment in life other than sleeping and travelling!!!

Burp~! I am so full~~~

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Went out with Joan, I-Vee and KaiHo in the night. We went to watch movie in One Utama. Cinema on Saturday night is really congested. We watched Pathfinder, a movie about a legend of Dawn clan.

The movie in quite nice, with a lot of scenes which are really terrifying and exciting. Killing is something common in that time. People kills for self-protecting and also taking revenge. 怨怨相报何时了？Avengeness will only bring to more killings and hate. People knows it but people still do it. A really horrifying contradiction. Is that the human nature?

Was lost in the car park after the movie. We parked the car at new wing of One U but ended up watch movie at TGV at old wing (as we could not get tickets in GSC new wing). Took some time to finally reach at new wing.

Had supper at Nasi Kandar Kayu SS2, where we had roti tisu (which I named it 巴黎铁塔 as it is much more bigger and higher than any usual roti tisu than I have seen) last time. But we were all too full to eat anything. So we just ordered drinks and crapped together.

It was 3.30am when KaiHo and I-Vee sent me and Joan back to MC. My long but wonderful Saturday has come to an end.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I had a long, long sleep and woke up at 2pm today =p Bought newspaper to read about the flood in Johor. Sigh... This is the third time of flood in Kluang in not more than 1 month.

When will the rain stop? When will the flood end?

Sigh...

KOREF trip

It has been raining frequently in the past few weeks. And the rain is usually heavy, with strong winds which make you feel as if it will blow down the trees; accompanied by lightning and loud thundering.

It rained again this afternoon. I came back to MC after the last paper to had lunch with WF and FL. We were watching a James Bond movie while had our lunch. The sun was still shining bright when we back from school. Then it started to rain heavily in just half an hour time.

The weather is really unpredictable recently. Hope that the weather in Kluang is nice, especially on next Tuesday.

Oh.. I forget to mention about the planning of trip to Kahang Organic Rice Eco-Farm (KOREF) which I worked last time. Since Adeline and Yuing are going to Kluang next week, so I have been thinking of where to bring them to...

I seek help from Chok to bring us to Gunung Lambak and it is really so lucky for me as his shop area will be out of electricital supply next Tuesday due to some dunno-what-purpose maintenance, which means that he will rest for the day.

(Well, it's good for me, but not good for his business..)

He has agreed to be our driver and bring us to wherever we want to go. Haha.. That is really to great! He even suggested to bring us to Batu Pahat. But we are not going for a shopping trip... He also suggested to visit the Gunung Pulai where we went last time but lastly did not spend much time there as it rained heavily soon after we reached there.

A tempting suggestion he gave is a trip to KOREF. That is really a brilliant idea. We have been planning to visit the farm for so many times but just could not make it. Finally it's the chance!

I have contacted Miss Pang from the farm. She said that she will inform Uncle Teo who works at the farm about my visit. Since he also knows me so I can just go and visit the farm without entrance fee.

(Woo... As if I am still working there~!)

The girls are so excited with the trip after seeing the pictures in the website. Hope that it will be an interesting trip =)

Went to pasar malam with Joan and her friends again. It started to rain again once we reached there. Kinda bad luck... Had dinner first at a hawker centre. Then we still went to the pasar malam under the rain (luckily it's not very heavy..)

I think that I am quite bad luck for the day. Let's see what have happened thorough the day:

• This morning I found that the battery of my watch DIED.
• The exam of Geology is something which I am so reluctant to mention again. The questions are just so weird until I have no idea of what to write...
• Raymond who promised to go lepak with me this afternoon ffk at me at last.
• It was still bright sunny day when I went out but started to rain when I just arrived at pasar malam.
• I bought a new watch but then I accidently dropped it onto the floor and the glass on its surface just broke like that.
• My computer kena virus and I have to spend some time to scan again and again to heal the infected parts.

It is a bad day for me... Anyway, holiday has started. It's time to enjoy~!

* Note: ffk = "fong fei kei" in cantonese, which means giving empty promises.

Laptop back to normal

Ray asked me to go out last night. But I rejected him as I need to go to the computer shop to get back my laptop, and I have so many things to write down, about my life at home. Moreover, it is actually quite boring to go out with him =p

The button problem of my laptop is solved. So is the window problem. The boss did not charge me on the maintenance of software as he said that he felt so sorry for giving me so much trouble.

(Hmm… He is really good in doing business. And I can save money too!)

* * * * * * * * * * *

It’s Monday. I was awakened by my mum to go to the market with her. It’s 7am in the morning!!! It was 8am+ when we back in home. Then mum went to work and left me with some chores. There goes my beautiful Monday morning…

Mona asked me to go to saloon this evening. But it was the time that I need to prepare dinner. So, my messy hair still remain messy…

What have I been doing at home since I came back last Wednesday? Hmm… I watch TV, clean house, cook lunch and dinner, and play with my little cousins. The notes which I bring back home is still lying in my bag, remain un-touched.

Argghhh! I am just so lazy!

computer

JH told me that he only install OS into my laptop as it performs soooo slow and he suspects that it is the problem with hardware.

Anyway, at least it can be started now, and I am installing some other programs into it. Phew... It is really not a fun thing when deal with problematic computer =/

=)

Yoohoo~! My laptop is okay after a reformatting!! My luck is still not that bad...

*edited*
Actually it is the problem with MeiLing's printer that I installed on Saturday. Maybe it is not compatible with my laptop so it just gila like that. So it does not even need reformat, my friend just uninstall that printer for me. Anyway, glad that it is okay now =)

: |

I am thinking of whether to ask my friend to reformat my laptop first or just send it back home for service. I actually do not have much time to go home. Sigh... If it is only problem with virus then reformat will solve everything. But if it is problem with hardware, then it is going to be troublesome.

So, what should I do? Maybe it is better to have it fixed at the shop but... I will have to travel home then...

Time is never enough for me! All the things never seem to be good to me recently...

Bad luck!

Think that I am struck with bad luck. My laptop got some damn stupid hardware problem. It cannot boot and kept telling to choose the mode of starting windows. This is really something frustrating! Seems like I have to go back home this weekend to get it fix. And I will give the shop owner a big scold as I discover that she cheated on me during the first service where the button of 'N' got problem. She told me that it is fixed but actually it is NOT!!!

Sometimes I really cannot be too kind or considerate to other people. Some people just need some reprimand from others then only they can work better for you.

夺命追魂call

中午终于将我的手提电脑拿回来了，我连续五天的“夺命追魂call”终于奏效，每天都接到我的询问电话，那间店的负责人应该快被我烦死了吧！

晚上八点抵达久违了的MC，冲了个凉，换了个床单，就被I-Vee和凯豪拉出去了。

我们去接京京，然后去One Utama排队买戏票。原本想看恐怖片《鬼域》的我们买不到10.30pm票，最后是看11.50pm的《Just My Luck》。看电影之前在McD解决我们的晚餐，也消磨了一点时间，结果吃得很饱，连爆米花都省下了。那是部相当不错的电影，俊男和美女的组合，有些情节挺搞笑的，全场观众都笑翻了。

看完电影已经是凌晨两点，回到MC时我真的是累死了……
