My New Baby


man, i love my mom!

she's sick and all yet she still finds a way to help me out in my direst times.

i've been out of a job since March. Times have been very tough. I barely made it though enrollment and the mounting monthly bills... all thanks to her and some help from my brother and some friends.

For my birthday, she again came through and helped me get my hands on my new toy -- a P2 300 IBM Thinkpad.

Yeah, I know, it's an old notebook but it's got most of what I need. With this baby, I can get by with my free-lance work and be mobile. I had the CD-ROM upgraded into a combo drive, the 6gb HDD into 30 gb. I also got a wifi card, an optical mouse and a USB hub (since my new toy only has one USB port).

It has encountered some problems already for which I harrassed the Open Pinoy tech support. Then I learned i can tinker with it and get results faster, less the hassle of trekking to Greenhills in the Ortigas Ave. traffic through LSGH.

Anyway, I'm just raving about my mom. She's my life-saver.

And I say it again -- man, I love my mom!!!
