My computer is abysmal ...

... and I almost wish I could chuck it and buy a brand new one. I might have to call someone to get it serviced.

Why did it have to be so shitty? Especially the DVD-ROM and its associated drivers!!!!!!!!

First off, the so-called "DVD-ROM" doesn't even play DVDs. And now the associated software to fuck-up, so that it doesn't even run CDs!! The final blow? I ran three - three different virus scans for a total of six bloody times, and errors showed up. Yet, the bloody driver wasn't corrected!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHHHHHHHHH!!!

I seriously hope I won't have to repeat Tiberian Sun again! SERIOUSLY!!!

I don't know why three virus scans have to screw up. And to think they're the best in their business ... man, I hate my incompetent desktop!! I wish I could chuck it and buy a new laptop, but we don't have that kind of money!!

Will I ever play the C&C games!?!?!?

The Common Cold

*sigh*

I have a cold, and my throat hurts. It's not too bad, but I'm sick of my stupidly incompetent immune system. Chicken pox is *supposed* to improve one's immunity ... it hasn't improved mine, of course. Drat. Or is it just my mom and her superstitions, and am I giving a shit about her advice?

In better news, my cousin had a super-grand wedding on Sunday, and an aunt of mine has just become a mom. Well, I can hardly wait for Tuesday evening - there won't be any frigging exams to worry about!

Exams and Weddings

Well ... my exam "saga" isn't over, not yet. I have a big one tomorrow, and a tough one ten days after that. I'm not worried about the tough one because I have lots of time. But the big one has truckloads of calculations.

On the really, really bright side - a cousin of mine is getting married this Sunday, so I have a lot to look forward to. ^^    

Computer Troubles

Any Fireplacian who knows me reasonably well will know about this.

In January, I got the entire Command and Conquer videogame series for 999 bucks only, in what I'd describe as the bestest deal ever, even though my dad disagrees to this day.

The problem is; my computer does not have a *working* DVD player, and I need a video card. I can't get these stuff until my exams are over.

I've been waiting for six friggin' months - one whole fucking semester, dammit!! I can hardly wait for July 5 - no more exams.

But, that's a long way to go. I have my second lab exam on the 17th, and I'm still scared of the viva. Yeah.

*sigh* Anyhow, I need to add a few links. Will do that now.

Edit: Why should you screw up so often, Blogger?   

Experimentation

I'm playing around with this baby at the moment - changing layouts and stuff. This site is neat - much easier to use than LJ. I abandoned an ancient blog of mine on that site because I couldn't get the hang of it at all.

In other news; there's one other person on this site who's interested in F/R and his lovely forums. It's Tersa. XDDD

Now, I think I should link my FFN profile and add some more interests ...    

Blogging is so much fun ... XDD

 

Lab Exam

Today's lab exam went off pretty well - most of it, anyway.

The minor experiment went off without too many hitches. Unfortunately, my hands were shaking when the examiner was watching me. Yeah, I get nervous at absolutely weird times ... o_O

As for the major experiment, it was acceptable.

Just before the exam, my classmates who'd taken it before me had warned me about the viva-voce. They called it "screwy", which made me give up about scoring well in that section.

In the end, it wasn't that bad. Half of the questions were tough and seemingly out of nowhere. At least I could answer the remaining questions. Phew, that was a relief!

One more lab examination to go ... and I heard from our teacher that the examiner is a tough lady ...

I hope the viva won't be shitty ...

First Post

Well, this is my first post.

I have a lab exam tomorrow, and I'm not that nervous. I don't usually feel nervous the day be fore an exam ...

I feel nervous on the day of the exam, especially an hour before it.
