My New Laptop!!!

Hey guys! Sorry for not posting ya! Goodness I didn't know that studying in a university would take so much work!!! Argh.. So tiring I tell you! Maybe mainly coz I have been spending most of my days holiday-ing with my family. Only went for serious shopping today! And I have to check in tomorrow!!! Argh!!!

Help!!! Any advice people? What should I get? Is carpet important? My room is dark gray. Kinda like old castle kind of look. How do I decorate it and make it more bright and colourful? How do I add stuff on the wall without knocking on the walls?

Help!!! My family is leaving in a few days time! What am I gonna do without them? I'm gonna miss them so much!!! Argh!!! I have never been away from my family for more than 2 weeks! Argh! I'll be 18 hours away from my family!!! By Plane excuse me!!!

How do I pay for my own bills? What do I do when I'm alone during the weekends? What if I miss everyone?

God..! SOrry if I complained to much! Oh dear.. =( I always tend to stray away from my title! Bad bad me! Hehe..

Anyway, the uni that I'm attending will be giving me a laptop! I havent gotten it yet. I think I'll get it by this Thursday! I have no idea what model it is though. I have the model number. So clever me went and google it up. My new laptop will be HP nc6320 and these are the details of it!

sounds like a cool laptop but am not familiar with the model. I personally chose the LENOVO T60 because it's lightweight and it has biometrics technology! You can unlock it by using your fingerprint!

Anyway, good luck. Call me weird but I always enjoy the first day of school.

Goood good good!! Go check out my laptop for me! I have no idea what all those things are!

What is vista anyway? Isn't it a windows? Why do I need it for? What games cannot play oh? Sims can anot? But I also never bring any games la. All so expensive here how to buy? Sigh.. Bluek!!! =(

Totally clueless abt the laptop specs...

As for the extra responsibilities you have to shoulder being so far away from home, I'm sure you'll be able to handle it within a few weeks...

Good luck!

It's a Hewlett-Packard, so it's reputable. The specs look impressive, especially for a laptop thats given out by a university. Take care of it.

HP is a good brand. Wow, they are just giving you a free laptop??? Nice! Enjoy using it and don't worry...you'll get used to the place and you can still keep in touch with your family. Where there's a will, there's a way!
