After a few weeks of "getting to know each other" process, I do think that a laptop is the best gift that I could receive this year! It really opens up a whole new world to me. All those mp3s and downloadings and games and writing without pen and paper and softcopy of schoolwork that i will never lose unless laptop is crashed by virus. Talk about how life has been made easy by compies!
Anyway... since the downloading process is somehow currently not working, I'd better sign off la.. it is never wise to bring mom's phone bills to exorbitant level unless it is worth it.. byebyebye.. off to cook :D been in love with cooking nowadays.. and perhaps I'd bring some of my cooking to a friend's place later in the morning..
Ugh, my upper back is aching.. damn it!

My beloved blog! Finally I can squeeze in some time to write again... been busy with.. no, actually I haven't been busy at all =p It's just that, my Dad's PC has been crashed by some virus brought by my sister's floppy disk and the whole hardisk disappeared. Whole hardisk full of his office-related files! That's why from the day that the mishap happened onwards, none of Daddy's kids would ever be allowed to touch his computer... which resulted in me not being able to go online at all. Sad case, huh? Until it dawned on me that HEY I COULD JUST USE MY LAPTOP TO GO ONLINE! Hahaha.. it took me about two weeks to realize that my laptop is equipped with an internal-built modem, so YIPPIE, apparently I can go online again! Not without precautions, though, 'cause everybody warned me that laptops are really prone to virus attacks, which of course one can easily get just by connecting to The Internet.
Technology: boon or bane?
Hahahhaa.
Anyway. Lots of things had happened. Firstly, I fell REAL sick for four days last week and it felt hellistic so I don't wanna talk about it.
Secondly, falling sick made me realise that I want to be a doctor. Yes, as in the one whose job is medically healing a patient. But the only way for me to do that is to go back to Indonesia after completing my 'A'-levels and sit for the National Equalization Exam, sit for the entrance test of Airlangga University's Faculty of Medicine and then, if I make it through all those, I still have to sit for the classes with... people two years younger than me. I don't know whether I could handle that.. plus the fact that parents don't seem to allow me to do my university in Indo.. I need to think this through again.. it ain't easy deciding for the future. Bleahhhh.
But seriously, I think it's really a holy thing to be able to don that white coat, walk around in some hospital and try to help those who are in danger... to be able to be beside those who are at the verge of their death, perhaps to be able to help those who are hopeless and revive them into life.. with God's help, of course.. Everybody needs doctors, and being one kinda.. um, say, relieve a bit of society's burden? I dunno. Just like my mission to be a teacher, this doctor thing is also a result of my not being able to stand the social welfare of my country peeps being so neglected by the big-G-word. I mean Government. Heeheee. Nevermind, I got one whole year to think about this... and anyway I told Mom already so she shouldn't take whatever my decision by surprise. I mean, this is my life and it's all about choices.. Parents shouldn't force me to do their choices at all because this is my life we're talking about not theirs. Right?
Whatever laaa.
