OMG! I’ll be in a long hiatus. When i pay our PLDT bill tomorrow, i’m going to have our DSL disconnected. Why? Because it has been heavy on the budget and i haven’t been online as often as i used to. Therefore, the solution is to have it cut. Huhuhu.. After 3 years of enjoying online life..

It’s kind of okay too, i’m enjoying playing with the Sims 2, with full expansion!! And i’m also enjoying playing Ragnarok again. Yes, pRO on the free server. I’m not going to waste my money on something i can’t fully benefit from.

Oh how i will miss downloading movies and TV series. This just had to happen when they just released new episodes of Grey’s Anatomy. Huhuhu..

So now, i bid adieu! :)

It has been months, or maybe a year, since I’ve been infected with a spyware. I’ve had the rare opportunity of even getting a virus since I’ve had so many experiences in getting them via downloading malicious contents when i didn’t know better. And then last night, i was victimized.

It has only been 3 weeks since i reformatted my PC because i felt that everything is out of place and I felt that I’d have the hard drive space i needed if i did reformat. And so, i just finished reformatting again. I’m quite happy now because I’m restarting all over again. Another clean slate, plus i had everything backed-up unlike 8 years ago when i barely knew anything about my PC.

Ironically, this incident happened right after my cousin installed a new anti-virus. Doesn’t that just suck? But it doesn’t matter, now i am sure i won’t be victimized in the near future.

IT stuff that sucks

Due to the hot weather, mom has decided to spend our days and afternoons at church; in the area near the river. And with the spacious area, the pugs can run when they feel like it. It’s cool because we get to spend time with the Evia Family and my uncle’s family. We chat, play, and watch DVD’s.

With that “busy” schedule, i managed to reformat my PC and i even brought it with me one Saturday afternoon in church where i installed Tomb Raider: Anniversary and played while the younger kids where watching and looking out for possible things i missed. It was frustrating at first because my monitor wouldn’t cooperate. It would blink and then i would restart the system and check if everything was plugged in well. I didn’t know what was going on. Someone suggested that it might have been caused by someone who shook the table. I really thought it was the monitor or the video card but after a few minutes of trying things out it was finally working.

I brought the PC back home that night because there was something that needed to be done and it was Sunday the next day which means there would be a lot of people and kids would be there. You know how kids are annoying sometimes. They’re curious little people. :big_smile:

Anyway, i set up the PC Monday morning only to find it blinking again, i was desperate. To make the long story short, i consulted with JJ and he suggested that it must be the memory card. And my brain was all “WTF?! how could that be? my memory card is 8 months new!” So then i sent a text message to the technician where we bought the card and he told me to bring the memory card along with the receipt and he’ll check it out. For one thing, i HAVE to find that receipt. It’s here somewhere, i just don’t know where.

Right now i am using the CPU of one of the PC sets we have in the shop. We’re closed at the moment (we’ll be relocating the shop). I took the 256mb RAM from the other computer for this unit to have 512mb RAM. But this unit’s speed is only 1.5Ghz while my CPU has 2.4Ghz. This unit has only 32mb VGA while mine has 64mb, which i need to upgrade for more games! Also, i can’t install and transfer stuff from my back-up because this unit won’t accept my DVD writer. :oh:

After neglecting this blog for a week, i am back. Life has been hella busy and there are things that i want to write about. Like thoughts.

I will be reformatting my PC after making a back-up of all my files and i believe that it would be done within the week, if i feel like it. Then I’d return to writing.

During the Holy Week, i spent most of my time watching DVD’s because there was nothing good on TV. Even on cable! And i still didn’t feel like going online today but there was a part of me that was screaming, “GO ONLINE! AS IN NOW!!!!”

In the meantime, feel free to browse around and read other useless posts within this blogsite and comment all you want.

Meh.

PC upgrade

Finally! The upgrade i’ve been waiting for. My PC now has 512mb RAM and a DVD writer. HOORAY! now i can get DVD PC games. MWAHAHAHA! :evil: It was so cheap that i wanted to have 2 512’s installed. The RAM cost mom ( :lol: ) Php 1550 and the DVD writer was Php 1630. That’s cheap. Now all my PC needs is reformatting, it’s the only reason left that the PC is still slightly slow. I think there’s an infection. My anti-virus is expired so i think i need a new one.
