A scene at the BENCH..!

Today, as usual, I was sitting at the bench outside the library, doing what I always do - Calculus -when all of the sudden...

Dr. Habibah (Director Of INTEC Campus Section 17) sits down beside me. Apparently she was waiting for her driver, who was late in picking her up from the library.

So there she was beside me. Ironically she did NOT spot me at first [ I guess that proves I have atained invisibility =) ] as she sat with her back towards me. She was having a chat with a older student who was studying part-time at INTEC, a diploma in public relations if I am not mistaken.

Then she turned , which I think is to sit properly, and then she SPOTTED me. She was a tad bit surprised to see me there with the books and all. The following was my conversation with her :

Dr. Habibah : Oh, ..... hi.

Me : ... Good Morning.

Dr. Habibah : Are you a student here?

Me : Yes. I'm in the ADFP program.

Dr. Habibah : Oh, I see. So you're in the summer session now, right?

Me : Yeah.

Dr. Habibah : What subject are you taking?

Me : Calculus.

Then her driver arrives and she goess off..........


However........

After 2 and a half hours, she returns to the library....

Dr. Habibah : You still here?!!!

Me : (Shocked) err... Yeah.

Dr. Habibah : You are not going inside?

Me : No.... I just went in there just now.... and I'm feeling quite cold now.

Dr. Habibah : You didn't bring a jacket with you.....?

Me : ....No.

Dr. Habibah : Well, when you're all warmed up, you can go back inside, right? (smiles)

Me : (Nods head slightly)


Man, this was my first time I'm meeting Dr Habibah face to face and I think now she thinks I'm some sort of a weird kid... Aiks....

I don't wanna leave the bench... Noooooo................

I guess I have a code red, ladies and gentlemen; a code red.

My New Computer!~!

I did mention in my previous post that I have gotten a new pc. And yeah, now I'm gonna tell you all about it.

First, on a more technical note, my new computer has :

  • Intel Core duo (C2D) E5200 @ 2.50 GHz
  • 2 GB of RAM
  • 500GB Western Digital HDD [x2]
  • Nvidia GeForce 9600GT 512MB
  • 20" Acer x203H monitor
  • LG Optical drive
  • Edifier Speakers
  • Cooler Master pc casing
  • Windows XP PRO SP3

And to sum up all that number and codes, I am getting pure AWESOMENESS!!!! I can finally play all the latest games in maxed out settings. I just played Call of Duty 4 & 5 this week and the graphics were incredible. All thanks to my hardware that is =) Now i am playing Crisis : Warhead with resolution at 1600 x 900 + Gamer graphics settings. The game is still running smooth like silk. Haven't tried the highest settings yet 'cause I do not want to decrease the lifespan of my hardware.
Another thing that is great is the widescreen monitor. I was watching "How I met your mother" the other day and the whole screen was used. It was like watching in cinema. Darn... Now I have no more reason to spent the whole RM10 on movies anymore. WOOT!

And to be honest, the whole pc didn't cost that much. The computer + the monitor was at a combined worth of SGD 900. Convert it back to the ringgit and you get RM 2100. Not a bad deal I would say. Think 'bout it, normally in catalogs, a new computer will cost at least RM 3000. And those pcs are bundled with SHITTY specifications.

I don't know if its just me or is Singapore a cheap place to shop of stuff such as clothes and tech stuff. I even bought my handphone from Singapore and it was WAY cheaper. Don't believe me? Well I bought my handphone for SGD650 or RM 1495. On the other hand, at the same time, the same phone cost RM 2250 at a shopping mall in Johor Bahru. (both were Original phone by the way).

I dunno about you guys but Singapore is great place to get lots of stuff plus there is a wide variety of things at Singapore. I supposed that is the reason the selling point of apartments, condominiums, hotels and houses here in Johor Bahru is that its 5 minutes from Singapore. LOL.
Johor Bahru is great because there is Singapore. Sounds wrong but totally true.

Anyway, enough 'bout Singapore. i HAVE TO talk about my new computer. After all, that is what the title is all about. Unfortunately, I have to return to college tomorrow, leaving behind this superbly magnificent but monstrous pc behind at home.

Well, better get back to more gaming to make up for lost time.
