Sober.Y

I wrote this in my livejournal blog.

3 papers... 2 down... 1 to go.
I'll be lucky if I ever get anything more than Cs for the first two.


Yep, I have a livejournal blog. But it doesn't really matter. I seldom use it.

What's Sober.Y? Hmmm, it's the name of a worm... had loads (about 50) of emails with this worm just today alone. Should be a recent virus thingy I guess... maybe it only came out today. Hopefully Singnet will do something about it soon. It's quite irritating to have the antivirus warning pop up everytime I check my emails.

The FLASHbox webbie was down for about two hours today, so was notsniw.net... because the server that houses these sites was down. Hardware failure... that's what my webhost said. Problem was rectified though. Quite fast I guess, considering that it was a hardware failure and needed replacement or something.

I went to school for my second paper today. A do-able paper I guess, with a few past year questions. Bad news is that I didn't really attempt the past year questions even though I did give them some thought when I last looked at the them. Ah well. Over le. No point thinking about what kind of grades I will get. This is perhaps my worst module for this semester.

Went over to Funan Centre after the paper. I reached at about 8pm and most of the shops were already closing. I intended to get a TV tuner card for my desktop, so that I'll be able to watch and record tv shows... and perhaps then not use the Internet so much and revert back to my "TV-watching lifestyle" of the past. Anyway, didn't buy anything because the shop that I went to didn't have that particular brand that I was interested in. Managed to clarify my doubts reading the use of a TV tuner card though. Well, nothing much actually. I just wanted to know if I could use the card without the TV cable and get decent quality images. My guess is I will not and the salesperson confirmed it.

Came home and checked to see if there were any additional TV sockets. Well, there's one in my parent's room, so I guess I will be using that. The only troublesome thing that I'll have to do is to get a 10-metre long TV cable. I'll probably consult my dad with regards to how it can be done. It would be good if I can actually drill a hole through the wall in between the two rooms :P Ha. Impossible de I think... the wall is so thick. Can't use the aircon duct also.

Last paper this coming Thursday. Dunno if can finish reading the textbook :/ After that is holidays le... have to face my nightmare HYP project. I admit that I haven't been doing anything to it. Haiz... will my CAP score drop further this semester? Very likely.

Oh, how come cannot use ah? Incompatible with graphics card? Mine a little incompatible. Sometimes comp will just restart because of error in the TV application.
