new computer is on its way...
Today I went to ICCT to buy my motherboard and video card, cuz from comparing prices on their sites seems like ICCT has cheapest for these two items. As I walked into the store a guy asked me if theres anything he could help, so I asked him how many watts of power supply I should get if I just have 1 dvd burner, 1 cd-rom, 2 hdd, and 1 floppy. The guy said 350w is enough, so I thought that's great than I don't have to spend extra money to get those aluminum cases. Then I asked if he has those cases that he can show me. It turns out either they look pretty boring (ugly) or they are for guys. Of course I changed my mind of getting the case from them after seeing the actual models they have. So I went on and ask about the video card and motherboard. To my surprise, the prices he told me is cheaper than the prices listed on the website. So total I saved about $25, which I'm happy for. Also, I realize their cpu is cheaper than cc by a few bucks, but on a second thought maybe CC is just like ICCT, prices might be cheaper when u go into the store and ask...so now I'm just gonna go and checkout the in-store prices at CC or pc gate.
I'm also thinking if i should get another monitor for my new comp, before i was just gonna use the mon i have now. But then I want to be like those computer geeks in the movies that have 2 or more monitors and computers and I can play w/ 1 of the comps then turn my head and work on a 2nd one.....hohohoho....it would be soooo cool if i can do that...the only problem is my desk......is too small........and my room is too small.......if somehow i can fit 2 computers in my room and still have space to do hw....then i'd definitely buy the 2nd monitor! wahahhahahha
I can sense that I have changed. And I don't like these changes, I feel like I'm back to the person I was in at highschool which I prefer not to be. I don't know what caused these changes but I'm guessing it could be the fact that I didn't have enough time to read some meaningful books and I was too busy w/ the school and work life. I keep giving myself excuses to be a "bad" person. I really should stop that. I found my emotions are quite unreasonable at times and I just couldn't help myself but to think a certain way...and not until later that I realize I hated myself when I think like that.
That's the reflection for today. Hope you all had/will have a wonderful Christmas and New Year holidays!
