blow up!

some 10 years or so ago, i came back from school to see dad and sister playing mortal kombat on our sega, in an enthusiastic battle between wu kang (or something) and rayen (i think).

i sat down and join in the fun, for those were the days when dad ruled supreme and i wanted to beat him so bad.

then “pomp!” something loud seemed to have a smackdown inside the tv, then, the screen fizzled. smoke came out of the back of the tv and some bad smell emitted.

“turn off the tv!!” dad yelled, but it was too late another “poof!” and the tv was smoking AND firing.

we threw water on it to cool it all off, and dad admitted to playing it for the entire time i was at school, he was having his off day and sis was staying at home for some reason i can’t remember now.

for days and days after that, our dear toshiba tv was giving us it’s cremated smells as if telling us it hated us.

fast forward to year 2005. i rarely turn off my pc now because there never is a real need to. my laptop had switch itself off anytime 2 mins after i booted it up, but my pc stays up.

so after talking for abit to smoke and boyfriend, voila, i smelt something.

“uhm hunny, i think my pc is burning”

“uh what?”

“something is burning!!!”

so here i sit under my table, with no screw drivers that i know where it’s placed, linxy dead to the world and a possibly burnt pc box and a nice white ibook typing this away.

i don’t know what’s wrong with it, not that it matters much to me, but it’s still annoying. oh wells, if it’s burnt, i will auction off the good parts or something and use the money to pay rent.

tell me, can anything more go bad ?

ke xing.

my dad said i was to experience bad luck for 4 years or something before i came.

INDEED! stupid pc.
