the day after christmas

finished my last isp report last night... yeah!!!

this afternoon i was trying to download the HR presentation video in my video cam to a computer. since my laptop is too slow to do that, i borrowed my mother's one. last june i installed the required software in her laptop and knowing she wouldn't uninstall any software of which the usage she's not sure of, i confidently didn't bring back and installation disk. what i didn't know was that her laptop kenna virus some time ago and was reformatted. anyway even if i did bring back any disk it was impossible to install on her computer as well. coz her CD drive is stuck and can't be open.

i was left with the option of transferring the installed version of adobe premiere in my computer to hers. used my mp3 player. it took me about half an hour to transfer and some files turned out to be corrupted. in total frustration i pulled it out without safely remove hardware first and now my mp3 player got some format problem, can't be used at all. after i get back to singapore, i need to bring it to repair liao... sob sob... luckily still under warranty...

well i guess i was stupid that i didn't think of using my new removable hard disk to do the transfer. totally forgot its existence until my mother reminded me. wow the transfer is fast! but... sadly... invalid registration information and the programme can't be used. wasted so much time and still didn't get anything constructive done. destructive ones, yes...

sometimes all these high tech stuff can be so frustrating. when it was all manual, at least u could make some effort to make it done. now, u can only stare and pull ur hair... while we enjoy the convenience that these things bring to us, we grow so much dependent on them.

went shopping with my parents in the late afternoon. there is this overhead bridge outside e shopping mall. when we reached there were so many ppl crowded at that area. hmm... 2 gals were having horrible cat fight and a guy who passed by was trying to separate them. heard from passers by that one gal actually got a 3 or 4 inches long knife which was already disarmed by the guy. what i saw was this gal with pony tail, was pulling the hair of a long hair gal. can't see the face of the long hair gal at all coz her hair was being pulled and her head was low. she seems quite defenseless. can tell from the way they shouts that the long hair gal is a third party who stole the husband of the pony tail gal from her... hmm... this kinda thing... what century liao? can always use civilized methods to solve mah... and there were so many ppl, only one guy went out to try to stop the fight. the rest just stood on and watch movie. someone even took out his digital camera to take photos. diao...
