Dropped off my MBP at the iShop service centre. It was really dumb when everything was back to normal again. Grrr. The service centre person(malay lady) kinda had this look of disbelief. I asked whether there were any related cases with the recent GPU problem and i got a “i dunno” reply.

She ran a scan with ‘Disk Utility’ and after about 10 minutes of trying hard not to disturb her, the laptop started to show signs of problem. The light went off and she said, “It looks like your back light has some problem.” Fiddling around with the screen brightness keys, she managed to get the screen up. Soon afterwards, my laptop started to get hangy with the usual multi-color rolling ball. This time i really have no idea what the hell is wrong with my laptop. Quite irritating that these people have no clear idea of what happen as well. She checked with her mates and told me she will send it in for servicing.

3-5 working days is my downtime. Hopefully, i can get a clear answer on what happened. Luckily i still have my iMac. I still love my mac in case you guys think i might be thinking otherwise.

Damn… just when i was all geared up to start work, my mbp just chose to give me a black screen of death. I narrowed down the problem to my GPU when i tried connecting it to a monitor. F7 simply does not switch the screen. Luckily everything else was intact when i could hear music with Last.fm activated with quicksilver.

The saviour of the night is my somewhat old iMac, a firewire cable and migration assistant on the mac. My MBP user workspace was all up and running in two hours of full user account migration. Everything remained the same (even desktop image and Stickies notes). Phew!!

Damn.. two commands that are so close and one has the ultimate effect of deleting all your cronjob. Guess which one… I learnt two things; one, better know what is the delete command and two, make sure you back up.

That’s the question asked by the bouncer at MOS on a clubbing session with 4 ladies (amy, sulynn, xinyun and audrey). I can understand why the bouncer asked me. Xinyun and Audrey were standing behind me in the queue. For a moment i feel a lot younger; i am already 26!

I became more of a drinks provider and a babysitter on that night but i am perfectly fine with that. It was an enjoyable night of jumping and fending off desperate guys trying to hit on xinyun/audrey. Haha… Only pity was the lack of drinks.

Saw the hwa chong guys… they looked like a bunch of fart tarts…

Here they are… leaving me to wait outside for them =(

Dengue is reaching epidemic levels. Everyone do make your precautions. It’s really near you. Have a look at the Dengue hotspots at the NEA website. Damn those mozzies!
