// If gadgets are so user-friendly, why do they come with a manual?
In less than 24 hours, I'll be on JAL, Osaka-bound.
#1. My suitcase is almost good to go, but I'm still waiting for some underwear to dry and to put in contact lens stuff.
#2. I'm worrying about how it'll exceed the 20 kg limit.
#3. My handcarry luggage is really too heavy.
#4. In spite of the countless revised checklists I've made the entire day, I'm certain there're still some important things that have slipped my mind.
#5. Can S$2,000 cash last me for 11 days?
#6. The cards I have to write to my CG mates by tomorrow are left untouched on the table.
#7. My SMU interview was supposed to be on 4 April, but I'm in Japan, so they're gonna reschedule me to another day. God, please don't let it clash with the Thai camp trip. :(
#8. I have to prepare copies of my IB certificate and cover letters for NUS, NTU, U of T and University of Melbourne by tonight. And my printer isn't working.
#9. Ever since CNY, I can only hear audio coming out from the left earphone of my iPod. At first, I thought the earphones were faulty, so I went to change. Turns out that my iPod earjack isn't working properly. Repairing it costs about a hundred bucks, which buying a new iPod may seem a better choice. But I don't need a new iPod omg, I just want to hear music normally.
#10. I think I'm going to have mensus in Japan.
Sian.
So what am I doing now to pass the time away? Setting up my new printer.
Doing it was pretty simple, I love how the instructions came in pictures with freaking cool arrows. Everytime I complete one picture, they'll direct me to the next, haha I find it really awesome. I think education shouldn't be confined to textbooks, children should watch what they read on teevee. (Y)
Installing was even easier. But when I connected the printer to the computer with the USB cable, they said it couldn't be detected. You know how when you insert stuff into the com with USB, it'll make this "tadaa!" sound? I heard it when I plugged in the cable, but like... Whatever man. It's times like these I wish I had an older brother.
God, please take all my worries away! Or at least, save my printer and iPod. :(
