All the rumors that he\u2019s been killed, that he stared doing drugs, that he\u2019s dropped out of college, that he\u2019s been eaten, that he\u2019s enter complete depression weren\u2019t too far from the truth. On <strong>4\/13\/2002<\/strong> (that date shall be imprinted in Krunk\u2019s mind forever), Krunk became powerless and died. Not one day has Krunk ever felt so weak, so feeble, so frail. For the past 5 days, he\u2019s been wandering around helplessly, looking for his soul. There was no longer meaning in life. He tried to stop and sleep, but there was something missing and he lay wide awake the entire night. But today, Krunk\u2019s been resurrected. God has once again perform a miracle. Krunk was completely intact. What happened???<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday morning when I was in the shower, there was a BOOM! (sounded like a heavy object that fell off my desk as witness damion recalled). When I returned, my computer had magically shut off by itself and there was a scent of something burning. I was like \u201cuh oh\u2026\u201d. Push the power, no response. Thought (actually more like hope) the surge protector popped, but nope, everything was still powered. Push the power button a few more times, but was hopelessly out of luck. After a brief search, I found my power supply had blown its fuse. Then the torture came. I don\u2019t mind using other people\u2019s computers, but my computer is like my soul. I can\u2019t just share it with someone else. My computer lied there lifeless for 5 days and each and every day life got more boring and painful. There was just nothing to do besides watch TV which I got sick of really fast. At night when I was trying to go to sleep, all I heard was the humming of the refrigerator and that annoyed me. Where\u2019s the humming of my computer, the perfect white noise for a computer geek like me. It was a sad tragedy, maybe comparable to a greek tragic epic.<br \/>\n<strong>Monday<\/strong>\u2019s mail came: no power supply<br \/>\n<strong>Tuesday<\/strong>\u2019s mail came: no power supply<br \/>\n<strong>Wednesday<\/strong>\u2019s mail came: <strong>FINALLY!!!<\/strong><br \/>\nI was so happy, I ran home (my dorm) and ripped open the package and installed the baby in. However, happiness always comes with consequences: skipped both my project meeting and midterm for CS. But hey, what in life is free? Hehe.<\/p>\n<p>I also got a new mouse today. Really sleek looking. <del datetime=\"2006-09-22T02:29:43+00:00\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/hardware\/mouse\/io_info.asp\">Click here<\/a> to check it out.<\/del> Guess how much it cost? Hehe, I\u2019ll let you guess but won\u2019t tell you the answer. ;p<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, I may seem weird for the next couple days, but bear with me. The secret will be revealed on Saturday or Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 days ago, Krunk died.
