yes, this is technology

If i remember correctly, the first piece of gaming tech that i marveled at was the atari. At the time, i thought it was the greatest thing in the world. I was 4.

It really is mind blowing when you think what can be accomplished with technology these days. Everything is getting smaller and smaller. I just read that there is a 128 gb pen drive. Its massive when just maybe 10 years ago we were only dealing in mega bytes.

Only recently, i downloaded final fantasy 7 on my psp. To those who doesn't know, it was played on a PSone. It used to be that it could only be played on that PSone console, connected to a tv obviously. But now i can play it on the go, anywhere whenever on the PSP, which is something that still till now, makes me think about how technology has evolved.

Even now, phones are not just meant to be used for calling. Over the years, it has been a camera, a radio, a cd player, and now, it is becoming more common that a phone can do all that and more. Internet can be accessed from virtually anywhere, even this post is updated from a mobile phone.

Makes me wonder, what's next??

So...

Before anyone says "update please"...and other comments seangkatan dengan-nya..

But I actually feel like writing something anyways. heh

It's been 4 weeks into the new semester, and Alhamdulillah everything has been going smoothly. I have only 2 days of classes for this semester, having a long weekend, as I have no class on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I actually hate having too much time, because I tend to not do anything on those free days, not even have fun. Those weekdays I usually wake up and get stuck between having fun and doing work and end up doing nothing except clean. Clean my room,. do laundry, do the dishes...haha...anything to pass the time.

I have officially sold my car that has been a good servant for 3 years. This means I have to take the bus to uni on tuesdays and thursdays. I really don't mind, I kind of like it because I know I won't be getting on a bus back home in Malaysia, i'd rather walk to be honest, and I did and have done so a few times when I couldn't borrow mak or kak yang's car. The buses here are free for students, and add to that the money I save from renewing the registration and warrant of fitness, I could probably get a treat for myself before I go back home.

I went in to RedEx again, you know the place that I have been doing one off jobs at. Jobs at RedEx are normally really easy, but tedious and annoying to do because the boss is somewhat IT "blind" and he asks me to come in and fix the same problems, most of which he creates and re creates himself. Sometimes I feel guilty..sometimes, charging him for the same things, but I have justified that with me walking to work from home, which is 20 minutes away from RedEx. Also, I am working towards a new phone, so any extra income is welcome.

Besides that...

I have been thinking a lot about human behavior lately. How great god is that god is able to create so many different personalities and weaknesses in each life form. I have been wondering about evil people. I think that everyone has evil thoughts somewhere in thier mind, and I think the real psychos let those thoughts out and act on them. Murderers, rapists...I really wonder what goes through their minds when they do such evil things...or they themselves don't even know what they're thinking and doing?

Sorry for those dark thoughts...

So...
