Says R.I.P to Windows XP

For some odd reason XP <--- it kinda looks like the emoticon with eyes crossed and tongue sticking out~ XP has remained as one of the more popular OS (operating system) for several years due to its stability and performance. However for those who are still using XP is time to say good bye~ Yes~ Microsoft has officially announced that XP will be retiring on April 8 2014. Windows XP will be killed off next month by Microsoft! :(

Printer ink is expensive! I need to save up my money

You might have heard before Printer ink is one of the few expensive liquids in the world. What fascinates me is that it actually costs more than your blood. Yes its price value is higher than human blood! OH MY! Since Im a college student I'll need to get my lecture notes printed out at least once every other day. If I could just donate my blood to this money sucking machine I'd probably save up a few hundreds by now. And don't you ask me to go paperless,  having hard copy study materials at hand is much more feasible, especially if I were to take my notes.

Remove pesky price tags or stickers no goo gone needed

Yeah~ bought myself a new shiny mug today! Due to my mishandling, my mug always has to be made from either plastic or metal. lol Hmm.. somehow it has got this big ugly label stuck on it. New Metal Mug I'll just have to remove it.. Not long ago I've tired some soaking recycled mason jar in hot water.. but it doesn't work that well for me. That is because the adhesives used on these labels are not water soluble. Sticker area often remains sticky.  When I use a cleaning scrub to scrub away the residue, the green little fibres fell off and got stuck on the adhesive surface. A pretty messy process which I regretted doing... eek.
