My Lappy

Story Of My Life
8 August 2008

A day before the PC Fair, 7 August 2008, Thursday...
Dilemma...Dilemma..Dilemma..
Looking at all the laptops available at the brochures I've collected.
I don't know which one to pick... *pulls hair*
The model I've wanted 'F8Sg' is not available at the fair..Damn
So I have to choose another one..


Tough Choices...


What I'm looking for in a laptop..it's graphics engine

Dad reminded me again that my budget is only 3k - 4k...*sigh*
I finally shortlisted it down to two...
between the F8Vr and the M50Vc
F8Vr cost RM 3688 while the M50Vc cost RM 4688

Huge difference in price = Huge difference in hardware components
I wanted the M50Vc but it's out of my budget...damn..
Here we go again...the persuading...
Finally dad agreed to dig out another RM1k. Whee... =D

*Sleeping*

Woke up and was feeling very excited...
Finally the fair is here!! XD

Went to school first in the morning...
Nothing much happen...
got my Physics paper marks...
Open my eyes and WOW!! I Passed...59% outta 100%.
Consider it good because Peng Chiew's paper makes everyone's life a living hell.

The rest of the day at school was kinda boring...
Other than chit chat with friends....do some written work..

*Bell Rings*

Whee =D
Went on down to the bus stop and wait for my dad to pick me up..
Dad's here!! Hop in the car and went off for lunch.
After lunch we went back home..took a bath and off we go to the PC Fair.


He's going to war XD

Dad first went to the bank..
Gosh.it's sure boring waiting ...


He fell asleep...

After dad is done...we left for PISA (Penang International Sports Arena) where the fair was held.
Here we are!! PISA!!


One Step Closer....


On the way up...


The Map...in case you got lost...

Crowded man..and I thought Friday should be less..
The sales person trying to pull customers in reminds me of YE..
Now I know how they felt when you just visit their stall and left empty-handed.
We make our way through the stalls..
Desktops...laptops...mice...speakers...camera...
everything's here...just name it.

Finally we enter section B (The middle section of the map)


This way down...


Finally found the ASUS stall.. XD

We went down and browse through the laptops they have there...
and I saw the one I've wanted..the Asus M50Vc.


*Tata*

The sales girl that came up to us was damn funny.
a student at USM from Perak...working part-time for ASUS.
First she came up to my dad and ask which laptop my dad is interested in.
My dad pointed out the M50Vc.

A very funny conversation happened between my dad, me and the salesgirl..

Me/Dad/Salesgirl

Salesgirl: "WAH!! Uncle..are you a businessman? Since you're getting a laptop this good..I guess you are.Anyway..if your company got any vacancy..please call me because I really need a permanent job".

Dad: No lah..I goverment servant only. The laptop is for my son...


Salesgirl: *looking at me* You're studying in a colledge?


Me: Nope...at PFS nia..Form 4 only.


Salesgirl: Wah...lucky kid ar you..Form 4 only can get a laptop this good.


Me: *LOL*


I gotta say..she is damn brave to ask...
"if your company got any vacancy..please call me because I really need a permanent job"
That line makes me laugh all day long. XD


The salesgirl LOL

My dad made the deal to buy it in 10 mins...after some bargaining obviously...
the thing is...the bos only agree to deduct 8 bucks...which make it RM 4680.

While dad settle the forms and whatsoever...I take a look around.
I found "Razer", the company specialise in making gaming tools...
I check out their gaming mouse, DEATH ADDER.
Awesome...everything in and out of it rocks!!
Of course good things also come with a good price...RM 300!!
blueks...forget it.. XD

Came back to the ASUS stall and dad is done with the Invoice forms..
the salesgirl then lead us to the stock room.


Steal...sell...you make tonnes of cash. XD


Unpacking the C4



Press this to self-destruct

After the testing and all...
I was assigned by my dad to carry the laptop and guard it with my life.
I carry the 6kg box all the way out to the car park.
Ouch...my hands...


Rock Solid...no wonder it's heavy. XD

The shopping trip ended at 3 pm...we went on home after that.
At home I took a bath and boot my laptop to setup Windows Vista.
At about 5.25 pm...I left home for dinner and then to Mr. Yeap's add maths tuition.


Jammed *pulls hair*

Actually wanted to go to Greenlane's McD for dinner but unfortunately..
McD is outta service...why? no electricity. Suck loads...
Tell dad just drop me at the coffee shop nearby and after I eat...I'll walk to tuition.

My timing is real bad...
I finished eating at 6.20 pm and I start my journey to tuition directly after that..
I reached 10 minutes later!! Now I gotta wait another 30 minutes before tuition starts...


Into the heavens

Waited and waited and waited...
finally at 6.50 pm...Paul reached.
Tuition started at 7 pm when everyone reached.

*Doing Add Maths*

At 8.30 pm...we went out and watch TV...
the grand opening of Olympic 2008, Beijing.


Olympic through a small screen...


The spectators..


Joshy


Paul

As we watched...everyone of us will come up with clean and dirty jokes..
of course the usual "KNN, PK, P, LC, LP MCB, CB" all also come out from our mouths.
F.Y.I. Mr.Yeap is the mastermind behind all this short forms... XD

At 9 pm...when we're enjoying the show...
Mr. Yeap says "Shows Over...if you don't leave..I'm locking you guys up here"
Fine...all of us went in the room and pack our stuff.


Fucket and Dog


Paul packing up real fast... XD

We make our way down and go on our separate ways.
I went home and watched the Olympic ceremony till midnight
Gotta say...the idea is good. Damn nice.

That's all for now...
Till then.

P/S : Nav!! It's a DX 10 Graphics card!!! WHEE =D
