One word: Suay!

I had a great day telecommuting today. I thought everything was going fine. I managed to finish my minutes of meeting after lunch (a 9-page long essay). The amount of incoming emails weren't huge.

I was happily starting out on my portion of the term paper. I had all the data at hand. I was already writing half way. I stopped to take a sip of water. A drop of water slipped from the mug and landed on the keyboard. I wiped it away with a piece of tissue.

The next time I know, my keyboard was not working properly. And stupid me went to shut it down thinking that when I switch it on again things would be OK.

Bad move. Why?

Because I couldn't type in my password properly and after 3 failed attempts I was locked out of the system. *Bang head against the wall*

The IT lady said that I'd have to take the key to the security company to reset in on Monday. And because it might be a hardware problem, I'd have to take my laptop to the IT dept for check up next Monday.

I would have no problem with next Monday. Except that I had saved my work on the desktop and not on my thumb, which means that I had to redo all my stuff. ARRRRRRRRRGH!

And so I 自暴自弃. Bought a box of 20-piece nuggets, a double cheeseburger and big fries from Mac and finished it together with Mr. Jang for dinner.

Best thing is, when I tried to start work again on my home laptop. It died... this time due to battery error. *Bang head against the wall again*

So I gave up and borrowed Mr. Jang's laptop. I hope I will be able to churn out something in time for the meeting with S and J tomorrow.

On this last day of my life, I think I have reached the suay-est point in my life and I actually find it quite funny.
