The kanchiong ROM registration
Very long never blog liaoz... Super busy at work. Super tired too. Especially on Mon, which was a hectic day. Had a long day at work, and rushed back home to wait for 0000 hrs to register online on ROM website. After dinner, TV was boring. Showing some cranky people trying their best to 'act funny'. How on earth can one act funny? Wierd idea there from the producers. Not interested in the 9pm show, so ended up surfing the net for anything that comes to my mind. Then I heard the familiar news from the living room, which means it's finally 2200 hrs. Arrgghh... another 2 hrs of wait. Called bf to get ready the info. Prepared info all in soft copy, later we're all ready to just cut and paste, and finish within 10 min to get a place through the system. Gee... Want to get married also so troublesome. Seems like NUS students trying to bid for modules like that. Kiasu-ism continues after school life. Haa... 1 hr passed again, finally 2300. I'm getting sleepy, need to work the next day, so went to take a long, warm shower. Bf unable to contact me and panicked. Haa... He must be thinking, "Oei... Don't back out on me on the eleventh hour!" Haa... Back out on the eleventh hour at eleven o'clock sounds real... evil to me. Muahahahaha... By the time I got out of the shower, it was nicely 2340 hrs and we communicated thru messenger. He stayed at his house and I stayed at my place, so that in case whoever's comp's not working, well things get going right. Hee... How well thought out by me - the gf. At 0000 hrs, upon countless refreshing of the website, the dates finally changed to what we wanted: 22 Nov 2006! So I said, "Haa... luckily you got cable at home. Settle it now." Then he gave me a big surprise. He didn't download that soft copy onto his comp yet! So it was one big mess all over again. Frantic search for that soft copy of information on my comp, frantic reading of emails by the bf, loacting the files, switching off the firewall so as to send a file through messenger, opening the file, cut and paste all the information and what?! System rejects this info that info, but we copied info from our IC! Try and try and refresh and refresh, cut and paste and finally he's at the last page. Payment. Then guess what? "Where's the master card?" Shucks! Another frantic search before the numbers were keyed in and registration completed and confirmed. Almost immediately, email received by both of us. Super 'efficient' system and super kiasu system. Almost had a heart attack that night. Time for a good healing.
