2 days without technology
i guess its true when they say that we've gotten too, far too reliant on technology.
my hp just totally died on me last night.
as in, SPOILED.
it cannot be switched on.
and during the rare occasions that it could,
it couldn't detect any network.
and to think i was still worried about not having battery to last till sat.
HAHAHA.
im eyeing Nokia 5800 now >.<
so i started my 2 days without technology.
because i have no hp.
and i didn't bring laptop back to hall.
but i guess its good for mugging.
the only chance that i get to use a computer is
in the seminar room occasionally.
but i just saw a fb msg that made me feel quite happy and warm
especially during this exam period =)
i told gan ying cheng before he went taiwan that i want pineapple tarts
know a very good shop but i cant rem the name! =(
i went to search for the paper where i wrote the name and address of the shop
need to tell him before he flies!
but sadly i didn't manage to do it in time.
and he just touched down today.
he said he got pineapple tarts for me =D
a word of casual mention only and he found it!
cos e shop he bought it from is E SHOP I WAS TALKING ABT
(very famous, called Vicor Kobo )
this is how their products look like!
really didn't expect him to get sth for me since he dun even noe e shop
so i was rather skeptical. BUT!
=)
trust people
u know,
and
trust yourself.
myself included.
maybe doing without technology these 2 days
is good for me.
good for mugging hee
maybe some things just happen for a reason.

johnny depp to the rescue!!
according to the news,
nicholas cage has been facing financial troubles
because of his manager.
to the extent that he has to sell his properties to raise money
to pay off his debts.
and apparently its still not enough.
BUT
johnny depp is coming to the rescue!
apparently, back then nicholas cage helped johnny depp
by introducing him to his current manager,
who then helped him develop his very successful career.
thus depp wants to repay the favour,
by being willing to OFFER nicholas cage CASH
to bail him out.
0.o
if the above is true, i can only say,
its going to enhance depp's reputation and gain him more fans.
but i don't deny i myself went 'awwwwww..... so nice!'
=)
can read here: http://www.cinematical.com/2009/11/16/johnny-depp-nicolas-cage-bailout/
i just saw a blue and green bird land outside my window
at 3.30am.
it looks like some kind of exotic bird
because i've NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT BEFORE
im very sure im not dreaming.
weird.

Are you suffering from Facebook Addiction Disorder?
Got to know this recently. quite interesting.
Due to the immense popularity of Facebook and it turning into an online social medium,
experts have coined this new term 'Facebook Addiction Disorder' to describe those who are addicted to FaceBook. It falls under the broad category of Internet Disorder.
To be diagnosed as having Facebook Addiction Disorder, a person must meet certain criteria.
At least 2 or 3 of the following 6 criteria must be present at any time during a 6-8 months period:
1. The first thing is tolerance.
This refers to the need for increasing amounts of time on Facebook to achieve satisfaction and/or significantly diminished effect with continued use of the same amount of time. They often have multiple Facebook windows opened at any one time. 3 is usually a sign and over 5 you're helpless.
2. After reduction of Facebook use or cessation, it causes distress or impairs social, personal or occupational functioning such as wondering why your Vista is so fast and improved etc. These include anxiety; obsessive thinking about what is written on your wall on Facebook etc.
3. Important social or recreational activities are greatly reduced and or migrated to Facebook. Instead of sending an email you post a message on your friend’s page about canceling a lunch appointment. You now stop answering your phone call from your Mom and insist she should contact you through Facebook chat.
4. This is getting serious if you start kissing your girlfriend's home page or a VRML virtual walk through a park is your idea of a date.
5. Your bookmark takes 20 minutes just to scroll from top to bottom or 8 of 10 people in your friend's list you have no idea of who they are.
6. When you meet people you start introducing yourself by following "see you in Facebook" or your dog has its own Facebook profile. You invite anyone you've met and any notifications, messages and invites reward you with an unpredictable high, much like gambling.
