First Day

Woke up at 6.05a.m. Was wondering why the alarm clock on the mobile phone did not make noise. On closer check, I put 8.00a.m., not 6.00a.m. Duh

Today is the first day of work or school for most people. There are more cars on the road.

Upon arriving at work, I switched on the pc. I got the first shock of my life when a message came out saying that my profile cannot be accessed or something to that effect.

The thought that ran through my mind at that moment was, ‘Oh no, I do not want to lose my work again. Pls pc, pls do not crash on me’. I did not backup my work for the whole of last week. I was thinking it could not be so much of a coincidence.

Next I wanted to launch the IE Browser and then I got the second shock when another message came out saying the pc does not have any internet connection. Argh! Oh no, not on a Monday morning on a fresh new year.

I was praying hard and asking God to do something. I wanted everything back to normal.

I restarted the pc and everything was back to normal. Phew! Thank God.

I quickly took out the pendrive to back-up all my work.

Gee that was a close call. It certainly woke up me right up.

Had to be careful and alert when writing cheques today since it is no longer DD/MM/09. Any mistakes would render the cheque void. But so far so good. :)
