Why I Don't Have Internet

I was on my way home from the city yesterday, and I was looking at house with the SmartBro antenna. All of the houses have one thing in common, all of them have their antennas pointed to one direction. While ours has shifted to a different direction. Must be from the winds a couple weeks ago. I've mentioned this to my sister to have someone go up on the roof and try to shift the antenna but she hasn't even done anything about it. I do get times when I get a connection, but only briefly and this has been going on for almost 4 weeks now.

A1 Review Center

if you're a 4th year college student taking nursing, and are looking for a review center for your comprehensive exam... DON'T CHOOSE A1 REVIEW CENTER!!!

my section wasn't very satisfied with what they had to offer.

lecturers were kinda boring and there were only a few choice lecturers that were kinda cool, but some are just plain.

OH YEAH! DON'T CHOOSE THIS REVIEW CENTER FOR YOUR COMPREHENSIVE EXAM!!! because, you'll be stuck in this review center up until your INTENSIVE REVIEW (review for the NLE/Board Exams)

some of my friends want to leave this review center but the review center's owner, that attorney what's-his-face wants to hold us back and stay with them or pay P5000 (that's FIVE THOUSAND PESOS) just to leave their review center.

pretty stupid! lucky for me that i don't have to take the NLE. hehe.

i hate smartbro

i hate smartbro! though it's the only ISP i have, i freaking hate it! i lose my connection whenever there is bad weather! like how the weather has been lately, rainy! one minute i'm surfing the internet, the next, frustrated that it has stopped.

not only that but for this past week i hardly had any internet at all. i'd be like connected on the internet for 2 seconds and then the connection would be lost again!

i wish that we could get dsl. it's so much faster and cheaper too!

who knows when my internet connection will become stable...

Fixed my laptop.

i bought my laptop a new HD. 80 gigs. only P2850 at Concept Computer at SM City.

The new HD
-----

took out the broken HD and placed in the new one
-----

lucky for me, when i went on that vacation to Guam this past Christmas, i managed to get a hold the laptop's Recovery Discs from my brother and brought it back with me. So I used them to format the HD.
-----

First CD done. Next one.
-----

Recovery complete!
-----

Even though the HD is 80 gigs, I only get about 75 gigs from it. Eh. it's ok I guess.
-----

Updating through Microsoft Update.

My Laptop is DEAD!!! (T_T)

everything... EVERYTHING!!! is all gone... ALL GONE!!!

part of my life erased...

my laptop's harddrive is broken!!!

whenever i boot my laptop, all i get is the BIOS logo and that's all... and the "CLICKS OF DEATH" are also noted...

the harddrive would just click and click and click and click...

so everything is gone. pictures, videos, documents. all gone... (T_T)

just came back from SM City and checked out at Concept Computer, how much it would cost to buy a new harddrive. i saw an 80 gig would cost me about P3,000 while a 120 gig would be at about P4,000... oh man!!! and i wanted to save my money to buy a new cellphone or something...

Early Morning Fire

was in my room surfing the internet, when i heard a bunch of commotion outside. then i hear my sis yelling that our neighbor's house has caught on fire. everyone was screaming and shouting. very non-appropriate thing to do during an emergency situation.

anyways. pics and video.

Persona Non-Grata

here are the pictures from our seminar, "Persona Non-Grata" last February 26, 2008

Film Photography

remember when i made a post about my grandpa's Canon AE-1?

well, i bought it a battery and some film and took some pics.

the pics turned out to be out of focused... since i have bad eyes, i can't tell if the picture i'm taking is in focus...

but anyways... here are the pics i took.

i have not edited these pics. i just scanned them posted them. oh yeah! i LOVE the sound of the shutter whenever i'd take a picture.
