The old times were the worst yet best times

Spent a lot of time over the weekend re-arranging stuff on my main computer. Moving files around, reducing the stripe size of my stripe-raided raptors to what others say, an optimal value of 16K. I removed my 80GB harddisk to be installed at my office machine. I filled it up with so much anime and MP3s it slowed performance down noticeably.


Besides spending hours at night fiddling with hardware, I had a healthy dose of social activity at a friend’s 21st birthday party. Only a handful of each of her primary, secondary, junior college friends and her relatives were invited. I happen to be in the same primary and secondary school with her, so I had the chance to chat with a lot of old friends. Somehow I feel rather refreshed after that night.


I ordered a few CDs off cdjapan the other day. They are in the process of shipping now. Should arrive in the office by next week. Rather cheap than buying from HMV. That shop charged up to $70 just for an imported album. I ordered Kotoko’s Hane album, The Pillows’ Fool on the Planet, Onegai Teacher – Love a Riddle Image Song Album and a Onegai Teacher OP & ED Theme song Singles. Both Onegai Teacher albums have songs sung by Kotoko! [XD] Everything totalled to S$123. Nice number eh [X(]. Shipping will be done via vPostJapan to reduce shipping costs. And those CDs, especially The Pillows’ albums, are near extinct in Singapore. Waste of money? No. I believe good things must be enjoyed at their best. [:)]
