Finally an update.
I am not a DIY computer hardware guy. So much for tryin to cut cost by do-it-yourself self DVD drive installation. Ended up wif a blank screen at my monitor and a high pitched looping beep sound. And no... I wasnt listening to too much Pussy Cat Doll's Beep. Hahah. So much for plug and play. In my hands its more like plug and destroy. It was comical really. I was sweating away in my room fiddling wif my CPU in the middle of the nite tryin to puzzle out which wire goes to which when my whole house was plunged into the darkness. The reason why? Well, urs truly tht's the reason why. My CPU gt fried... sumthing to do wif the power coupler and in the end had to send it to the QUALIFIED computer guy @ Upper Serangoon to gt it fixed. Oh yeah and throw in 70 as part of the deal. Lesson learnt. Like the sayin goes... bagaikan tikus baiki labu... LoL! My mum and sis were like "Shah! Apa kau buat!!!" Heheh... wht did i do? Feigned ignorance.
Had a wonderful time yesterday nite. Maya and me were invited to Imah's bday celebration. It was special really. There were only four of us at Al-Shaik cafe. Boboy and I firmly belief in Quality not Quantity. That means Quality people for company.. though few in numbers but plenty of laughter and warmth all around. The ambience was xcellent... we had a very fillin and sumptious dinner and supper under the stars and arabic music. There were plenty of jokes and laughter. Indeed... its very easy to forget all abt my trivial day to day worries and sadness. I juz luxuriate in the here and now and juz enjoy the pleasant company.
I often wonder why izit tht I am only most at ease and happy with these people. I can juz kick back and relax, lettin all my emotional armour down and crack plenty of jokes and unlimited laughter all around. But I'm rarely like this wif other ppl. Worse, when I am alone, I became very withdrawn and introspective. Well, I guess these are indeed special ppl and I am most at ease. perhaps the reason why I appreciate them more than the rest.
I had a real blast wif Boboy lookin for Ima's bday presents. I was really glad and happy tht everything went well. We scouted out the various eating places to see if the ambience suits us. Not to mention lookin for real bargains for the bday presents. It was like Boboy's xtreme makeover. We looked for his outfit high and low here and there. In the end, the end results were wonderful. Maya and Imah were gorgeous tht nite. Of course, being men, we luv pretty ladies.... ahakz! Who doesnt? Too bad they didnt belly dance though... tht would hav really made my evening. But wait a min, who's bday izzit aniway?
Really had a tiring Sunday. Mornin was spent cleaning out the huge and heavy carpet. Phew... now tht's a chore! Carpets sure add comfort and colour to the living room.. but it after havin to drag it out and beat it out to clean, makes me think twice of havin carpets for nex year's raya. My arms are juz aching as though I've juz finished lifting a 15 rep dumbell session!
I'm not complaining though. I feel like as though I wana giv up fishin for the time being. The catch rate is very poor lately. Perhaps is juz the turn of the season, I'm juz afraid tht the fishstock in SIngapore water juz depleted due to overfishin.
Niway... its gona be back in TTSH for me on the 15th. Hav an appointment for a special xray to check out my kdneys. Hope everything gonna be allrite. I hav been suffering frm acute stomach pains every now and then. Really got me worried. It was few days back when I had blood in my urine. I wasnt sure if it was urine at all coz it was all red in colour. I was freaked out! But tht was an isolated incident, everythings juz perky these days. Not to mention its really good to hav my PC back with me.
