It snowed just now. It started quite heavily but at the end of it, it was not as bad as it seemed to be. Otherwise, it could have caused massive traffic. I doubt it will snow later on.
I logged on to Facebook to reply a message sent by my friend. We were roommate seven or eight years ago. Everytime I thought of how long we have known each other, I would also think about my primary school’s classmates. I have friends whom I known for more than 20 years. What happen after another 10 years? I would have known my ex-roommate for 18 years and friends whom I know for more than 20 years would have been 30 years. It is hard to imagine but here we are.
Apparently, there are more jobs at the beginning of the year and some of my friends have already started their find a job campaign. To me, I do not quite like the idea of changing job as long as it is not the worst job. Honestly, my first job was my worst job ever while the second job was the most challenging and hardest. To job finder, believe in yourself!
Remember the PhD Catalyst which I mentioned a while ago. I have only consumed two in the span of four days and I already love it. It contains almost all ingredients of my daily supplement intake plus anti-oxidants. I am not saying that it is making me formidable but it certainly makes a difference compared to my usual daily supplements. In addition, I feel that I have started to gain some weight after consuming PhD weight gain. As much as I like about these products, something tells me that I should not totally rely on them. Anyway, I will gradually decrease the intake as soon as I reached my targeted weight. My biggest challenge still, is whether I will be able to maintain my weight when I go back to Malaysia. But if my weight starts ballooning, I wonder if PhD has some quick weight loss product. Nah, I would not try it even if PhD has the product because I believe that working out and a good diet are the best combination.

Just like to say, BBC weather forecast for tomorrow is heavy snow. The MET office has also posted a “Be Aware” weather warning on its website. If it is true, I will have to walk to work again. I will just have to check the website and the BBC News channel regularly before deciding whether or not to walk to work tomorrow.

I have received quite a lot of comments recently. Sad to say, some of the comments were promoting unethical websites and I have promptly removed them from my blogs. However, I have decided to leave some of the comments which were promoting loans, promo keychains, travel and the likes, as long as they were useful comments. Thanks to all who make the effort to visit my blog and make comments.
Holiday Inn is offering a free five minutes bed warming session for its customers. The hotel chain will try out the idea in London and Manchester later this month. It claims tat a warm bed, approximately 20 – 24 degrees Celsius, is a good way to have a better sleep. Well, I am not sure whether I am going to try that out if I were being offered the service, unless I can choose my own bed warmers!

This morning, I switched on my computer and it started to reboot itself every time it reached the Windows XP startup screen. Yeah, I know, I am still using Windows XP. Well, who cares! I actually care but at the moment, I will just stick to Windows XP. The first thing that I thought of was the files on the desktop. I thought of going into safe mode and copy all the files into another partition but safe mode was not accessible too. My last resort would be to take out the hard disk and connect it to my netbook but before that, I thought that I should try Windows XP repair option.
From my experience, nine out of ten Windows XP problems could not be fixed by Windows XP repair. I still tried that and it works. I wonder what caused Windows XP to reboot itself over and over again. After the repair, I launched Firefox and it started to have advertisement pop-ups of eczema and loans. I closed Firefox instantly and I started scanning the computer with Lavasoft Ad Aware and it found a Trojan but I doubt that was the cause of the problem. Anyway, everything is good as long as I do not have to format my computer.
A while ago, I ordered a weight gain supplement from another website. As mentioned, the purpose of the supplement is to increase my weight. My previous supplements were more suitable for muscle building and workout purposes and my weight now is sort of static. Hence, I thought that I should try something else and I saw an offer from the other website; £29.99 of PhD Nutrition Pharma Gain and PhD Catalyst. PhD Catalyst is a pack of multivitamins capsules which claims to be the most athlete-friendly anti-oxidants.
Members are able to earn 1 point for every £1 spends and each point is equivalent to 25 pence. Based on the price and points, I decided to order from the website. The standard delivery states 3-5 days. However, it did not arrive after day five and I sent an email to ask about the order status. It was due to the snow and the customer support could only reply that the item will be delivered after the weather condition gets better. I was shocked by the reply because I still get my letters every other day. Furthermore, an item which I ordered from Comet was only delayed by a day and it was delivered on Sunday! I may still order from that website because the price is the best at the moment.
