busy friday

last wednesday, i was going to transfer some movies from my laptop to our desktop PC so i can free up some hard disk space. but when i plugged the AVR to the wall socket, the power supply of the CPU suddenly sparked and then i smelled something burning. what the crap just happened? i quickly unplugged it and thought, i guess im going to have to go to gilmore as soon as possible.

since the service center is only open during weekdays, i informed our docket officer that i will be at the office only on friday afternoon so i can have the CPU repaired on friday morning. when i was having it repaired, the repair guy told me that the power supply is busted and needs to be replaced. the good news is, the motherboard, processor, hard disk and other peripherals werent damaged. thank God. since the power supply was still covered by the warranty, i didnt pay anything for the repair. thank God again. another good thing about it was that i didnt have to wait for the replacement. according to the warranty, the store will have to check the availability of the replacement and whether the manufacturer will approve it since it had to check if the defect is covered by the warranty. well, the power supply suddenly sparked and got busted for no reason. it has to be a manufacturing defect and should be covered by the warranty.

i finished having the CPU repaired around lunch time. before heading home, i dropped by Copytrade to buy one ream of bond paper since its cheaper there. by the time i got home, i was told the phone and internet bill just arrived. sigh. its two weeks overdue so i had to go to bayantel because the payment centers might not accept it anymore since its beyond the due date. then there's our old desktop computer. my mother told me to have it checked if it can still be used. i have to go to another repair shop to have it diagnosed. by this time, i texted our docket officer that i wont be able to go to the office since i still had stuff to do (little did i know that our law office was also having a busy day at work because for some strange reason, clients suddenly decided to make themselves felt that day).

after paying the bill, i bought me self some chimichanga at mexican express. after having the CPU diagnosed, i then bought me self some milk tea at cha dao.
