Successful Surgery









 My Pixel 2 XL have been with me for quite some times.  3 - 4 years? Since 2018 June 7th. Battery life has been ok. Always 50% left after a day usage. One day usage ok. I have dropped it quite a lot though. The screen has dead pixel on two edges. Then the top got lines. I saw shopee selling the Digitizer at about 100++ so I bought it. Then the battery is about 20++! My phone was originally 1k+ so it seems fine with the proportion to replace. I still use it to access what iPhone cannot :) 4a was too expensive to replace although I bought it at 599. The digitizer like 200-300++. Battery also… So I decided to wait… I still haven’t transfer the file inside so I will keep it until the price reduced. Hopefully they are.



After fixing this. Sony Xperia Z5 was really level 100. It is super hard to disassemble and assemble. The parts were expensive. Anyway, it wasn’t only the digitizer that was spoilt. I think the motherboard spoilt for Z5. It was still operational but lots of glitches. So a waste. My fault because I dropped it a few times and the last fall was because I let someone out of a bus queue at Woodlands, I was using a wired earphone connected to the Phone. The person wanted to get out of the line while I was going in. The metal barrier caught my earphone line and my phone flung out of my pocket and dropped onto the concrete floor with a slam that cracked its metallic shell… From then on, I seldom use the wired earphone that needs to connect to the phone. My heart still ache.

Cuts

 I finished doing my wallet without cutting myself. I got a poke from the needle though but it was alright. Only that one time. The rest I found a way to prevent that. The cutting mat has been very useful and now it’s filled with holes. Today I got my first cut of the year. Fengshui’s problem. I was taking something from the dark corner near the kitchen sink at work. Was opening the carton for umbrella. Someone asked me to take. When I was cashier, I normally took it myself instead of calling someone unless really necessary. I have cut away the tape but the tape side sick to the wall so I pulled it and I couldn’t remember but just felt sharp pain on my left palm. My left hand gave way after the cover flipped open and the knife on the right hand slashed my palm. Sigh, I should have close it before pulling the cover. It failed to open the first time so I slide it out to cut a second time but worry it didn’t open and kept it that way. Should have trust my instinct.  I also think ...

Bank

 A bank asked me to apply for their job. I was a bit skeptical whether it was scam. After a few conversations, it seemed legit. They needed my updated resume. I didn’t have. Go back to my old canva, then dragged out the old one. I realised I have a Word document ones after I sent the pdf ones. I should have just used the Word document because it was the latest. Anyway, I don’t have finance background so I might not get it. Based on their requirements, I think there are lots of things I have not yet explored. However, if I can finish my task earlier, maybe I can go for a test or two to see what are the skills that I lacked of. I felt a bit off because I just kept on doing uwp… I also needed to back up against my current job because I felt insecure about it, based on the recent months I was there. I am not sure if they want me there just to solve few issues then once solved then don’t need me anymore. Because every moment I was there, I felt a bit like it. They are also spending quit...

Peculiar

 Not sure how I should feel. Good or bad. Mum used to be very good with tech. Well, yesterday, have spent two hours over the phone just to help her log in to my account. In the end, she only managed to download and update her Netflix app on her iPad. iPad actually a bit different from Android so she has lots of difficulty linking App Store is equivalent to Google Play… When I said search, she literally search by her eyes… I cannot help but laugh at myself. Programmer and code did the same. I am not around so I can only do these for her. Sigh… Should have gave her a tutorial during CNY…  My screen is back… The touch screen I bought previously so that it is easier for me to do work. The pc that I bought previously is a good investment in the end. Thank God or the manufacturer that both working fine so far.
