ARGH!!! WAT's WRONG WITH THIS BURNER?!?!

ARGH!!!...
just as the title says... i have been having problems with the new DVD-writer of mine...
i just can't burn anthing unto CDs...
i have photos to burn for a teacher in school but this Samsung Write Master DVD-RAM burner just isn't cooperating!!!...

i don't know why...
at first i thought it was just the usual spoilt CD... well you know.. the rm40 for 50 pieces kinda CDs... but then... it never went past 6% on Nero when i burn stuff...
WHY???...

then... i just changed my burner... or rather... my mom helped me change it as she was out and about.. and i was busy... but it is still the same!!!...

i tried burning stuff on the old Acer PC which uses a Lite-On DVD burner... which i used to copy discs quite often last time....
and it had the same problem!!... could i be so unlucky to have SO D*MN MANY SPOILT DISCS??...
but then again... i did reformat that Acer....
but then again... it shouldn't have any effect!... =.="

ARGH!!!...

anybody with any idea with what may be wrong, please immediately leave a comment... or just contact me... ASAP!!!...



so... ok... enough of my complaints about the burner....

well.. my dad's much better now.... the swelling has subsided... and he is looking much better...
went and got a new pair of glasses today... rm200!... o well.. that's quite usual for a pair of glasses anyway.... XP

thank God... and all that prayed... (if there were any... =.=")


so... basically... i am just writing this post to kill time...
as i am very sien of turning off my pc so many times trying to burn CDs unsuccessfully... =.="

o ya!...
today... i took many many pics... yea...
talk about taking pics the whole day in school... well... when school's in session i mean...
helped the IT department to take pics of all Form 6 and Form 3 students... not all... around 7 classes... passport sized photos...
it is for their GRADUATION cert....
form six no problem lah... but why form 3 olso in this? some of you may ask....
well... our school has this Junior Secondary graduation kinda thing...

the head of the IT department bought two new studio lights (the big thing you see in studios that they use to take your passport-sized pic) and two passport pic backdrops (the blue to white gradiented thingy)! talk about using finances and getting things done fast!...

i know our photography society should have those things... and the IT department buying that kinda stuff sounds a lil awkward... but... we do have them... just that our ONLY light is a bit cacat and is really really ANCIENT... and the sensor olso sot sot liao...
our backdrop is KINDA dirty... with paint and all sorts of stains and marks.... =.="

but... after we helped them take photos... the head of department seemed quite pleased and said we could lend those equipments from them whenever we wanted... if they aren't using it... (which i don't think they will after taking the passport-sized photos...)
so...
YEAH!!!... XP


haihz... WHY? WHY? TELL ME WHY??... WHY WON'T YOU WORK? o' DVD BURNER??... =.="

haih...
well.. i had a thought when i was coming back on the bus yesterday...
you know our RapidKL bus system.... you buy one ticket and you can use it the whole day?..
well... i was thinking... put myself in the bus driver's shoes:-

12th January-
The bus driver goes on his normal routine... goes around.. driving people...
when people put in RM1 or RM2 and he gives them a ticket...
he comes to Titiwangsa main stop at about 3pm....
then a guy steps into the bus, shows him a ticket he has bought earlier on another bus....
he (the bus driver) looks at it...
"12 JANUARI 2007"...
he (bus driver) let's him (passenger) in...

13th January-
it's another afternoon... just like the day before... and the day before that... and the day before that.... .... well... maybe it rained on the day before before that... ....
he comes to another bus stop... a young lady steps in... he looks at her ticket...
"13 JANUARI 2007"...
he lets her in....

just about 16 hours before that... it was still the 12th of January....
but in another 16 hours... he would be seeing tickets with "14 JANUARI 2007" printed...
just 2 weeks before that.. he was still seeing tickets with "2006" at the back....


he sighs.. snaps back to reality... and continues driving....

conitnuing his old routine....

while time and tide just passes by.....

DVD burners burn DVDs, so get empty DVDs, not plain CDs...
(Hope it's that problem...:] )

swt.. tat's definetely not it dude. DVD burners can burn normal CDs too. anyway, it's fixed. ;)
