My friends and probably people who follow me on twitter probably know that I do not like Apple (probably much more than not liking - perhaps despising). I'm sick of people keep bombarding their Apple products in my face every time I say something, and I am sick of the shameless brainwashed promotions from live conversations to social media to TV programs and ads.

So I thought people who read my blog have gotten pretty bored from all the news and other stuff (A) so I'll start with my first blog entry. So, this semester I registered for this stupid course as an elective which is basically introduces how to use a computer to computer-illiterate people (business, nutrition, economics and chemistry majors). I'm sure I can Ace this course during my sleep!!!!! The first time I went to class, I was this close from DYING out of boredom. During the first lecture, the teacher was telling the class what a mouse and a keyboard is, and what's the difference between a hard disk and a CD-ROM (which is like first grade information). Ironically, as I sat in the back, I started studying the people in the class, and most of them were taking notes.. AGHHH!!!! I mean SERIOUSLY? And then this guy started asking questions after he got confused whether a printer in an output or input device. The next class, the teacher was explaining to her toddler studen...
