Just when I thought nothing spectacular was going to happen this holidays and I won't have anything to blog about, this comes along... Grrr...
My laptop died on me. Well it didn't actually, more like it was my fault, but I'm putting all the blame on it. You see, what happened was Vista was doing it's 'Installing Updates during Shut Down' thing and on the screen is the damn message 'Installing Updates. Please do not Turn Off the Power or Remove the Battery' and I so conveniently unplug the laptop to bring upstairs, forgetting that I've disconnected the battery to conserve its lifespan.
Look at where it got me.
My laptop won't boot. Probably in the middle of the updating process Vista erased some boot files. I CAN'T GET INTO THE 'PLEASE ENTER YOUR PASSWORD' SCREEN!!!! Which is very annoying.... Instead it's now trapped in a disastrous loop of restarting itself in an attempt to boot. ISHHHH.... And to add insult to injury, I don't have my Dell Windows CD with me. Lent it to Ka Liang in school and he was suppose to pass it back to me when I went back to KTJ for results... Arrrgggghhhh so annnnooooyyyyeeeddddd..... Seriously this is probably as annoyed as I can get. I've never been so annoyed in my life. Grrr.... Going to try to get Dell to send me a replacement copy of the CD and hopefully that works out. If not, no laptop until August the 14th, which will be hell considering I need to make use of my laggy home desktop to keep myself occupied, which I get annoyed at every time it lags on me (As you can see I get very annoyed easily these days). Probably I'd just go read a book or something instead of waiting on the desktop to work. Ishhh....
This also means no games, no movies and no music until I can get my laptop up and running again, which is DOUBLY annoying... Luckily I'm off to KL tomorrow and Wednesday for the Warwick Pre-Departure Reception at PJ Hilton (anybody else going or wants to meet up?) so that should keep me pre-occupied. Hopefully Dell would agree to send me the disc AND courier it to me by then. Am also working in my dad's office now for the time being but I hate the idea of not having my laptop waiting for me back home. Gahhhhh...... Haven't realise how attached I got to it until now, especially when I'm bored at home... Not going to send it to any computer shops or Dell as I don't trust anybody with the data on my hard disks nowadays... Am just going to have to sort this out myself... VERY VERY ANNOYEDDD....~Zhongy~
P/S This should mean that I won't be online for a while, until Thursday at least. Anybody who wants to contact me should just text me on my phone (at least THAT'S working!!!) instead of leaving me offline messages or something... GRRR....
Oh, and on a side note, you must have been really jobless to read through this mindless rant by me. Don't worry I don't do it often :P Normal service will resume once I get my laptop back on the flow. Am having weird ideas about naming it. Any takers? =)
