another boring day..
so today i went to sham shui po.. again. i was looking for components for my beloved but very much dated g4 cube without much success.
first, the only wireless option i have is the airport card that provides a mere 801.11b connection. this is pretty weak given the physical setup at my place. and the card doesn't come cheaply, even for a used one. the usb receiver route won't work neither becoz the cube has only usb 1.1...
second, i'd like to upgrade the video card to a more respectable GF6200. the stock one is a rage 16mb.. or is it 8mb? it simply doesn't cut it anymore with all the latest features and eye candy. a GF6200'd bring the cube up to speed for the time being. this will most probably be the last upgrade one could perform to a 7-year-old machine coz anything newer would be out of reach.
at least i'm not trying to upgrade a IIe. hah!
today is a good becoz:
1. the weather is nice;
2. it's not too hot;
3. it's proven that my father doesn't have cancer.
hohohoh. tmr i'll go to sham shui po and have snake soup again. yum yum.
what a bargain. it takes light in, it focuses, it shoots... just like any other lens...
oh well. u can google its reviews and samples. it's sharp enough and the bokeh is pretty enough for an average joe like me. and it's pretty fast, too.
considering the price, hey it's a steal!
tonight i went to yoshinoya after my accounting class. as usual i ordered the chicken bowl. the only difference is that i ordered iced tea instead of coke.
the yoshinoya iced tea tastes very funny: it tastes just like ricola. it's like drinking a candy.. hm.. yuck!
the accounting class is practical in a way that the teacher actually shows the students how to do everything. it's a hands-on class. nothing about the theory, just pure operational stuffs, and it shows. there is this funny atmosphere within the class. from the jokes and reactions one can clearly sense that these are working class ppl. it's firmly in their mindsets: i'm not a boss. boss is bad. boss is dumb but somehow they make money all becoz i'm good.
i think it goes round and round and in the end, they will always be working class. it starts from their own mindsets.
too bad the picture wasn’t very clear. maybe it’s time to get a faster lens..
the 坤記芝麻糕 of sham shui po is really good.
the younger sister working in there has a short temper thou. so i guess not even good dessert can capture a girl's heart no more.
i guess in hk, a good hint on the stock market works way better than a dish of fine dessert. i think that's kinda sad.
after all these year, i finally realize i prefer hand writing more than typing. it's just easier to let my mind flows. but then again, my hand writing is among the worst in the world. sometimes even i have a hard time reading my own hand writing...
it's that bad.
