Laptop Baru (aka Noraknya diriku punya maenan baru!)

Yap, akhirnya setelah sekian lama, gw punya laptop. Selama ini gak gitu butuh karena bisa minjem, tapi berhubung minggu depan ud kuliah, uda saatnya punya laptop sendiri.
Dari semalem gw uda keranjingan maen2in ni laptop, mengupdate isinya, ngetes internet, dst.

Lumayan banget ni sekarang, kalo dapet ide cerita bisa langsung tulis, gak usah kayak dulu, catet dulu sedikit di hp ato kertas catetan dst, takut kelupaan. Heheh.

Skarang lagi di jln ke rumah pacar tercinta :D Kalo dia masih tidur, gw tungguin. Klo udah bangun, gw mo minta sarapan. Bangun telat, jadi gak sempet sarapan gw tadi. Sekarang aja uda laper.

Wah McD pondok indah. Drive thru? Males ah.

Dah dulu ah, laper. Nanti gw balik dengan post lebih bermakna. Kebetulan giorby baru menginspirasi gw dari shoutbox. Heheh.

Ja na.

PlayStation emulators! (aka Nostalgic Fun)

Yep, I downloaded an emulation program to play PS games on my comp. Well, my cousin's comp, actually. Think it was because I was playing MGS3: Subsistence, which had ports for the original MSX Metal Gear games (Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake). That made me interested in trying out the first Metal Gear Solid game, which was for the PSX. Which I don't have anymore. So I googled emulators and related info.

Found one, ePSXe, pretty decent, needed to set things up first though, which was a handful. Isn't it troublesome playing PS games with the keyboard, you might wonder. Well, fortunately, I have a PS3, and the wireless controller comes with a USB cable to charge its batteries, so I thought I'd google again and see if I can use it on emulators. Turns out I can. :D

So lately I've been playing old games that I liked and remembered, like Spyro, MegaMan Legends, Harvest Moon, and obviously Metal Gear Solid.

It's been really fun, not to mention nostalgic, playing these games. It makes me realize that it's really the original games that were so easy to get hooked on. Compared to current games, they're relatively short to play, and obviously have inferior graphics, but the games are really engaging, and fun to play. It's kind of hard to find games like those nowadays, games that really get you hooked to the characters, the story, while at the same time being fun to play.

Well, anyway, if any of you are interested (and your computer or laptop is up for it), go ahead and give it a go. You might find a better emulator out there too, if you want. :D

Today's News (aka I Need A New Computer)

I seriously need a new one. My current one's full of viruses and bugs and worms - basically everything you'd find in the corpse of a test subject for an evil pharmaceutical company. I guess that makes my computer something of a zombie. Heck, I'm even doing these posts on my sister/cousin's computer. Which by the way has much better specifications than my own.

So anyway, I'm thinking of scrapping my own comp and getting a new one. Not anytime soon, but hopefully soon enough.

In other news, I did a "concert" today, which I think I mentioned in the last post. Pretty funny, seeing the little kids from the vocal classes perform. They were like 6, 7, maybe 8 years old. Nuff said.

Which reminds me, I need a new cell phone, too. This one's literally fallen apart. So that, with the computer thing, means that I've got to save up for quite some time right now. Which isn't likely to happen, knowing me (Knowing you, *Aaah* There is nothing we can't do~)

Guess whose song that was, without googling it. Just for kicks, you won't get a prize anyway.

Until next time,

***EDIT
forgot this:
Quote of the day: "Husbands are the back door through which secrets can creep out to the outside world" - Stephen King's Lisey's Story. Not sure I got it entirely right, though.
