Rebirth

I bought and assembled a new pc named 'rebirth' last weekend as it seemed that 'tsunami' wouldn't hold much longer. How special is she? Let the specs tell the story:

Athlon 64 3000+ 939pins
Epox 9NPA+ Ultra nForce4 (Socket 939)
Palit Gforce 6600GT PCI Express 128MB 128Bit
256MB DDR 400 PQI (2-yr wty) x 2
80 GB Seagate 7200 SATA (2-yr wty)
Epraizer VI 11A (Blk/Blk)
450W Dual Fan 24PinATX SATA
500VA Giant UPS with AVR
Computer Table YT-700 (Blk)
A4 tech USB Keybord

17" MAG 786FS
Logitech USB Optical Mouse
Lite-on DVDRW SOHW 1653S

The ones on top are new while the others have been bought previously. I had to literally go around metro manila to piece her together but it was well worth it.




Pros:
-nView! a desktop of 2560 x 1024 is something to smile about.
-I can play most games at the highest detail level and resolution.

Cons:
-Hangs occasionally during a game (will tweak this until its stable)
-PS/2 ports of Epox boards still get broken sooooo quicky. So I had to buy a USB keyboard to make the computer usable.

Office?
I've taken 1/4 of the sala and turned it into my home office/game station. Its still sorta messy, but I find it comfy.

FEAR

As one of my officemates pointed out, the central theme of Batman Begins is fear. As is some of my favorite shows: Star Wars and Dune. Although I do not look or show it, I have much fear in me. It seems that I am only at 30% of what I can be due to fear. I can list some of them but am unable to face/conquer them.

Fear of loss c/o that person.
Ridicule and Shame due to my hyperflatulence.
Rejection due to who I have become.

A good step in conquering ones fear is knowing it. Another step is putting it out there. So there...

Lightning

Black ops failed last friday. Shucks and I thought... anyways, its was also Adrian's nth farewell party. Hurry back home bro.

Went shopping with Ramon yesterday. Got a good haul but it took us hours to complete our rounds.

Was contemplating on what to buy, a kick-ass pc or a pda/phone. Whacha think?

Here's something I dug up for your viewing pleasure, a blast from the past... my crazy college days.
