The first LCD TV

1 or 2 years ago i tell myself someday i will buy a 4o inch lcd tv for my family (back then it is $3x plus),  finally did it today…in less than an hour with a bit of impulse purchase and mess I got a Toshiba 40″ LCD tv for my family for $799 at the electronics fair!

Buying the TV is not an impulse thing since my mum been wanting to buy for weeks as her room TV is spoilt but the selection is quite an impulse thingy. i been trying to convince her to buy after I get my bonus! But since there is this electronics bazaar so no harm seeing Hahhaa…..used all my expenses $$ for the month + $200 on credit to buy this TV! how am I going to survive! whahhaa…is again dipping into my saving again. this is bad, i just kept using my saving despite i am working! but cant wait for the TV to be delivered to my house for use hahah… dunno if the TV is good or bad but at the spot both me and my friend felt that it is sharp and colour is nice

But because of this $799 burn in my pocket, my tennis racket plan shall delay till i get my bonus! >.<…provided the bonus can cover the $799…lolol.

 

Next shall blog about my first assignment at the new unit!

Yesterday went back for an exercise and this is considered the first assignment at the new unit since I have only been reading so far. However, things did not go smoothly. I just get to know that I can take taxi there so i decided to go to work by taxi but little did I expect that it took me half an hour to get a cab (even though i called forone after i couldnt get one for abt 10-15mins), then we got stuck in a traffic jam at bukit timah road~~~ In the end I reached my office at 2:05pm, when I came out at 12:55pm … and I am suppose to reach at 1.30~2pm.

Then because I was late, was abit panicky as I was upset that I missed the chance to observe the verification of the system and I thought soon it will be the time for the activity that I am supposed to perform. Was quite unfamiliar at setting up since it is my first time despite I practiced at test server before. So bad that I even replied ”I dunno how to do that!” when i was prompted to use telnet to check my connection. Indeed I am not familiar since I hardly use any command line before be it for windows/unix, but i shouldnt have answered in that tone and should not be so nervious…

Then subsequently when I was doing whatever I need to do, then i realised I used the wrong version of the s/w. My impression is that the older version is only for me to play around…never expect thats the one to use in prod system, especially when I did not have the older version in my system even when I am learning how to do the stuff I need to perform on sat. but I should have thought of it, the newer version is in testing, how can it be prod copy. Then after that there are some settings that I did and did not notice that the auto was changed to manual after I commit the changes the 2nd time =.=

All in all…i am quite disappointed with myself . Feeling abit down since ytd…but I shall pick myself up … Shall gam ba te in future. One very prominent weakness…command line, i am totally cui in this area =.= But this set back shall not deter my interest for the unit, I shall continue to learn and am still looking forward to work each day at here.

 

What a day though, was woken up by rain and thunder at 5plus am…then woke up at 8am just to stare at the rain ruining my tennis game. then the cui-ness at work. hai… gam ba te gam ba te gam ba te!!!
