新年破产

"Eh I just opened your laptop ah and found signs of corrosion on your motherboard. Water must have seeped through. In that case the warranty does not cover water and you have to pay for the repairs."
"Water?"
"Yes. Corrosion only means water seeped through."
"So how much do I have to pay?"
"Altogether I recommend to change 5 parts: The motherboard, the heat sink below the keyboard, the keyboard ..(Can't remember the other 2). Estimated to be more than a thousand."
"Hmm.. can I not change some parts.. like the heat sink and the keyboard."
"Can. But the warranty will be void if you don't change just 1 part."
"So if I change all 5 parts the warranty will still be valid?"
"Yes. Give me your email and I will email the quotation to you."
"What is the earliest you can get my laptop repaired?"
"It depends on whether I have the stock. I'll include it in the email."
MORE THAN A THOUSAND BUCKS!!! wadthehell.. just when I got back all my money i'll lose them again. Really can sit down and cry my heart out. the only consolation I can get now is that I don't remember him saying he will replace my hard disk.. so means my data may be safe. And at least I still have 2 years of warranty. But still.. What a 冤枉 way to end/start the Lunar New year....
Going back to Hwachong tomorrow.. skipped lessons for that.. wonder if it'll be worth it. My horoscope for tomorrow showed an unusual full marks for 'Money', 'Love' and 'Attitude' tomorrow. Wonder what's in store....?
