3 Hours Attempt ..

i was in my 3rd hour of the mock exam; 120 questions answered, 80 to go. then come the calculation's question, i retrieved the paper and pen only to press the mouse accidentally and it shows some error message. no back nor refresh button can be found. taking a deep breathe in, i have to close the window and see the list of mock exam done. what's shown in the list is the attempt i made yesterday, only 5 question answered. i have no other choice but to repeat the whole process. i'm trying darn hard to control my annoyance at the moment as there's nothing but my carelessness - and the stupid mouse for being too sensitive - to blame.
a sign that i need to reschedule the exam? i wonder ...

STUPID!

after thinking that it might be the battery's fault, i took the battery from the other remote control and used it for the supposedly spoiled remote. and TADA!! it works! stupid idiot me. why didn't i think of that before. i mean yes i did get a new battery but never had it occured to me the problem lies in the battery. and also stupid customer service asked me to throw the old remote because of the corrosion without ever think of testing it. sigh, its my fault full stop. no point pointing fingers. now all i need to do is call the service centre again tomorrow and try to sweet talk as best as i can asking if i can return the new one back. wish me luck!!

Just My Luck

i don't know if it's a fate or me being simply retarded. few months back i lost my card holder the stupid way, i dropped it in the cab. i was waiting for a bus but decided to flag a cab when i saw one. i was having a chat with a friend over the phone and was busy with lots of stuff as well as i just came back from some cnbc event. lost one gym membership card, tang care card, credit card, gnc card, and God knows what else.
bought a new card holder and giving myself excuse to change my wallet and another card holder as well. some luck here. i wasn't satisfied with the choice i made with the sales person's persuasion, i went back the following day to exchange it with my first choice. some price difference made me had to add one more stuff. so i went for the card holder (this time, its for business card) which can be used as a coin purse as well. after some calculation i became aware that i was undercharged. i should've paid more that i called the store the following day. i did my part right? the staff said they'd called me back to discuss on the settlement but they haven't call up til today. well, i did my part so i'll just wait for them to do theirs.
anyways, to cut the story short. i lost this card holder now. this time around i'm not sure where as i remember seeing it still on sunday. guess i threw it unintentionally or i dropped it when i took the letter out of my bag on monday. but i couldn't recall putting it in my bag on sunday night, though. well i guess the bottom line is it's gone. and together with it few dollars in coins, banquet card, few business cards, and my phone memory card. darn!!
