Random Write Up & Dear Netbook


How rarely do I write a blog post compared to ever since I started my blog, on a count from 1 to 10; probably only 1% of 1 that I did wrote blog posts over the past one year. I've missed writing and expressing myself through words. I've gotta admit that I wished I dedicate more time on this because I find peace in writing. But, my work had had kept me very much occupied over the past one year, Also, it was emotionally and mentally tiring to keep up with the office restructuring, project and people at work

Today's been a day I am squeezing the very bit of time to sit and write because 
1. I'm passing my BELOVED Netbook to my dad. 
2. Public holiday for the state I worked in. 
3. Staying at home doing nothing. 
4. Not playing my usual mobile games. 
5. Completed the drama series that I've been chasing to finish. 

Excuses much, Haha!! 
Oh well, indeed on my usual days over the weekends I will not want to switch on the computer again and hence, I do not blog. I don't really Facebook too even though there is an app. 

Let's reserve the excuses and get started as I can only spend a little time on this. 
Gotta pack and get ready for work tomorrow after a long break. 

Not just a long weekend break, I was on a long medical leave since end of November all till now that is mid of December. I'll reserve the details for my next post (hopefully) because I said I would like to share my experience on my fear of walking in and getting a minor procedure done all alone. The pain, the mental strength and the courage, I think I deserved a pat on the back. One week of MC plus the weekends and holidays hence, it was a long recovery period. Thank God. All is well now and I'm fit to be at werk (work) or else my boss will sack me.

Okay next, I mentioned that I'll be passing my Netbook to my dad?! >_< Yes, I am. He requested it to bring along if he needs to travel in order to enable him to continue his FB games. Gosh... Yeaps, my dad plays online games (like addicted). Mehhhh... 

Dear Netbook, 

Thank you for serving me well. You've are still functioning well though I can't expect much as you're just running on Atom unlike desktops and laptops. You have served me well throughout my Uni days with the many assignments to write up and also some study materials. Besides that, you've been a great partner during my Lasallian convention days as you're small and light to travel with despite your speed. But hey, I managed to get work done with you. Bravo, my beloved! 

My biggest fear when I did not have extra cash to get a laptop back in my uni days was when you fail me. While you behaved well whereby I only replaced the battery pack once. Back then, I was constantly worried that you will not be able to survive through my Final Year Project. Final semester on my final year with not much savings, I definitely could not afford to get something new. Thankfully, we pulled it through and I've graduated for 2 years plus now. 

Then, I used you very rarely once I started working and my current job provides me a laptop which means you have been set aside for awhile. Every time, I switch you on I'd worry that you'll not light up as it was once in a blue moon which I think your battery will be fully drained off. Always being thankful (lucky) you did not fail me. Love you!!! ^^

Oh ya.. Oh ya.. another thing I like about you is that you have a memory card reader for my camera's memory card. I seldom use it but I like it cause there is no need to hunt for an external card reader which I heard it can easily cause virus to the PC. 

Now, I've cleared up all my data and did a virus scan before passing it to my dad. I am sure he'd take good care of you. Please, be nice to him. 

I have owned you for 6 years and still counting. 

Thank you for walking through with me for the past years, during my uni and Lasallian days. 
I appreciated that I owned you because I wouldn't know how else would I be able to own a device for my studies. Those years were the days I needed a PC most for studies and my very active involvement in the Lasallian movement. 

A snapshot of my dearest before I cleared the data.

Thank you once again. 

With love, 
Your owner. 


P/S : Tomorrow will be my first day of work ever since my medical leave, I had a bad dream or somewhat nightmare this morning in my sleep. I dreamt that my boss changed my jobscope without notifying me which I will take it hard on myself. Worst was that there are mountains of invoices which are not under my custody/work nature was all stacked on my desk. Colleagues were complaining to my boss on the late payment and me being me I made a big fuss in the office saying that it was not supposed to be done by me moreover, I was on medical leave. Nightmare isn't it. Let's see tomorrow. 

Cheers xx
