Laptop Gone! New Laptop!

It is been a while since the internet at UTM got problem.. I am not sure why but all I know that many websites are blocked.. Now about the title entry for this post! Actually here is what really happen...

Last Wednesday I plan to go home because I need to pick my sister from KLIA (she was on semester break... she studied at India.. I don't want to talk about her.. HAHA).. So I take a bus at night at 10.30pm... I asked my friend to send me to the bus station, and we went there early to dinner first.. My friend park his car, not too far from the stall and I think better I put my laptop under the car sit so that nobody noticed it(plus I already remove the battery...

Forget to tell, we arrived there around 9 pm.. After dinner around 9.40pm we went back to the car,and what do you think I saw??? My friend car mirror was broken!! And the only thing that was missing was my laptop beg! Hua!! There were not only laptop inside the beg, there are external hardisc 160gb, pendrive 4gb, ram 1gb, my motorcycle licence(it is called in Malay geran motor)and all my dissertation notes...

I do not know what I feel that time but what I know is there are nothing I can do.. We went to police station to report... The police said the thief have some kind of detector that will detect any car that has laptop inside it but they still not sure(now the thieves are more advance that the police.. what a worst!)I cancel my trip home that night and I went home tomorrow night.. Lucky my lecturer has most of my dissertation notes and data backup! But still there are lots to catch up!

At home, my mom offered to buy me new laptop... At first I tought it will better to buy desktop because it is heavier and less mobile, but then my mom said she prefer laptop, so I think this time I will be extra careful! Again I choose ACER because the service center is near my house! Hehe...

This is a new model I think, ACER Aspire 4530... The price is RM2K smthg after I add three years warranty... Here are some of the specs...

Processor : AMD Turion X2 RM-74 (2.2GHz, 1Mb L2 Cache)
Ram : 3GB
OS : Windows Vista Home Edition
Hardisk : 250 GB
Graphics : Nvidia Geforce 9100M G
Sound : Built in
Others : DVDRW, Bluetooth,Wireless, 14.1"W, Webcam

It is almost like the one that gone, only this one is colour is blue and the keyboard is black... Smart I think! See the picture below.... But the moral from this stories, never leave your laptop alone even it cost you your life!! Haha

Talking to Yourself...

It's been a while since I do the posting... I'm too busy la plus I do not have any idea what to post... Everyday I wake up in the morning, wash my clothes, taking a bath and then I just go somewhere either to library or CICT(Center of Information, Communication, Technology UTM) just to get internet so that I can continue my research...

But that's not the main topic here... Actually while I surf the internet, I found some interesting articles in Yahoo Health about people talking to themselves.. WOW! Something I really like to do since I was a little... Haha.. What actually the author said about it? Ahaha...

Actually in my opinion, talking to yourself is one way to make you always prepared for any incoming problem, for example if you have a presentation, why not looking to yourself at the mirror and try to talk about your presentation while looking at your face.. Then you ask a question for yourself... This is a good way of talking to your own self...

Another example is, when you are driving alone and you heard from the radio about something that you are not agree, you will respond it by talking to the radio right?? Haha... That's another types of talking to your own self... If you got a problem and you manage to solve it, did you ever thank yourself like "I know I can do it" or "This is easy" or many more depend on your personality...

If you hate some person and you see them, what you always said in your mind?? Haha.. I know! "It's him again" or "Asyik2 mamat ni je dtg menyibuk" or many more... You does not shout it loud but just some kind of whispering to yourself.. But actually now, many people are ok with this kind of talking to yourself...

Sometimes they are talking to the handphone via bluetooth that's make it really look like talking alone... It will really becomes funny if the conversation involves some heavy topics! They sometime talk really loud that other people will hear their conversation... But trust me, this kind of conversation is really boring and uncomfortable.. It is better to have the conventional way where we have eye to eye and face to face conversation..

Not all are good however, if it involve depression and stress, I think you need to see a doctor because sometimes this small things can cause you harm... This is also one way to talk to yourself by blogging... Haha.. Click link below for the original article

Does Talking to Yourself Mean Yo're Crazy?
