I hate it when it happens

   ARGHHHH!! Just went to the computer shop to ask for the digital camera that I've booked two weeks earlier, and what news greets me?? The camera is out of stock and I'll have to wait until May for a new shipment. DAMN! Now I'm not blaming the computer shop people for the delay....rather I am frustrated to the fact that I cannot have something that I, for once can afford to buy. Sure is ironic. Its back to the waiting game I suppose.
   Moving on to other matters, the SARS epidemic sure have frightened people here in Sabah. Sure there's no reported cases yet(Hopefully none if that is possible....) but nearly all are taking precautions. Chinese medicine shops are really having a field day in the sales of herbal medicine that is thought to at least somehow strengthen the immune system. My father also went to buy some of the medicine. He only bought around ten packs of the dried herbs( Which must be boiled for over 2 to 3 hours to become a bitter tea) but one man was noted of buying more than 100 packs!! The thing people do....But seriously, I do hope that a cure will be available soon.... the society seemed too afraid to do anything nowadays....
