Evolution

Damn sien today. Literally spent 3 of the 5 hours in school in the com lab with ND, when we're suppose to see some teacher retiring.

We wasted the first 15 minutes in the com lab on this poor fler. Long story. This fler saw the 2 of us sneaking into the com lab, and because the com lab is strictly V.I.P access only at that time (kononnya. ND was having the com lab keys, which made him the V.I.P), naturally both of us didn't want him to be inside lar. Plus three is a crowd mah. Two is just nice.

The fler lingered at the windows, calling us out to let him in (the lab door was locked). We did what normal peeps would do in this kinda situation.
We hid. Hence, the plus minus 15 minutes of procrastinating.

I tried out Linux OS in the com lab! Linux isn't bad at all. In fact, it rox. Why isn't it as widely used as Windows? No idea. Maybe because you, You, and yOu didn't bother to give Linux a chance =)
You don't need to pay a single cent at all to get a copy of Linux by the way.

In Biology, students have to study this massive chapter on variations and theory of evolutions.



They always put in pictures that one primate leads to another and at the end of the chain, you see someone familiar (and probably naked).









Evolutions are taking place everywhere, not just living things. A great example would be my dad's cars. In the 90's, he started with a humble Proton Saga. It was humble and erm, boxy. A few years later, he got a Volvo, which is longer and even boxier.

Like the evolution of man, where things get bigger towards the end of the chain, my dad now has a large and cool CR-V.

Wokay. Come sit on my lap now and I'll tell you all about the evolution of my MP3 players.

My first very own MP3 player:




That was 5 years ago, when CD player also they call MP3 player.

Then at 2004, I got this:




WeWa!! Azoth is a decent Mp3 player. The only problem is as it ages, it starts to shed its skin and forms a sticky layer (some kinda skin disease). The next thing I know, hair and furs start sticking on it and it's becoming hairier by the second as we speak.

That's the cue for yet another evolution.
Behold.




Creative has been coughing out MP3 players with cool designs and Zen Stone is the tiniest so far.







Functions include FM radio, stopwatch and voice recorder. The only thing I'm not quite happy about it is its shuffling mode. It shuffles songs, yes. Switch it off. On it again, you get back the same songs you listened to the last time you on it, this time in contrary order. Geram.
