    Flunitrazepam might work better :thumb:.


    But seriously, if you're in this much of a stress over a graphics card, maybe you shouldn't bother finding a girlfriend - she'd probably be too much stress for you.

    About getting a job, aren't there jobcentres in Egypt? Supermarkets/department stores are good. Good luck CK. get a job, and get some responsibility; when you're earning the money you're spending your purchases will seem so much sweeter (not to mention you can sell them if you want).

    Oh, and everyone has arguments with friends at some point. Did you try showing them the parts for sale at lower prices and just pointing out that you were just looking out for a mate?

    mmmm, it would appear CK's looking in the wrong place, going the wrong way about it etc. etc., but:
    SO much respect for saying that. Thank you. Just because CK's being odd doesn't ever justify everyone being nasty. Add to that, running emos down is NOT the way to deal with things; when they realise they're emo they can end up just hating themselves more.

    I'd just like to cheer everyone up by saying my life is actually so perfect that running out of shaving foam is a big deal for me. :lol:

    forgot to add that in.... thanks.

    notice that he is also mad at the stupidity of his local people, like in EX 1, and the fact that his parents seem to be blind as to the real personality of his brother, like in EX 4.

    as for the mobile phone..... yes a mobile phone was rather expensive when he was 10...... but to give a rather complete 300€ mobile phone to a 10 year old is rather..... interesting, even for todays standards.

    and about that part of CK repeatedly asking for sympathy.... yes i have noticed it... but i rather give my sympathy and try to guide him in the right direction other than do nothing (it is in my nature and culture).

    they chose his bride? were is the fun in that? i hope they get a cute and smart one for CK or else he will be back here. :p

    i forgot to say: Computerking if your parents wont give you money for your computer projects, change them so they will as cheap as you can pay from your work/pocket or free.

    peace;)

    If you wear a "kick me" sign on your back, someone may just accept the invitation.

    There's a learning experience in it somewhere...

    It's not so much a "kick me sign" as a "WARNING: Do not expose to reality- may result in grip on life and/or emotional breakdown."

    I was gonna write a bit of a blurb but i'll leave that to the experts [nexxo]


    Basicly kid talk to your parents and hunt a paper round earn a few bucks and buy your self some shiney stuff :). Nothing in life is free and you are rarely handed a Silver platter so take it when you can and don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

    mm sorry Guys I was searching for the job in whole computer stores and malls.... even the grocery shop... the bad news I can't work in any place... why? because I have to turn 20 years old and take a papers from my country ( Egypt ) after done the Army for 1 year.. then come here in UAE and get that paper and find a local dude or company to make me on their hands mean when I found one I have to make some papers and make a work card like working visa.... yeah like that... I was try to find company or store to work on it he said you must turn 20 years then we can heir you!!!!!

    damm my dreams and hope fall down... no work mean no money.. But I still have to try on fixing computers or build or build web sites or sell Programs and games or some thing that I can do with my own without store or company.. But I don't know how to make people know me and come to fix computers in me.. now all Stores Don't install windows only original but people can install Unoriginal...

    I Feel that I stuck and screwed up I'm not kidding this is the truth and I don't have any one to go to or ask for help or any thing....

    I'm so disappointed now after 7 hours of hot weather and all stores search no JOB !!!! because some Idiot Rules and papers... damm I can work and I want to work :(

    What to do now? I really want to find some thing soon.. dad too mad from me and mom also they just don't care any more...

    I'm really Don't have any buddy to go with or some thing...

    Thanks thanks very much for the help before that gave me idea to search in work.... I searched in Radio shack and Emax and all shops you can imagine....

    Hate the life.. I see guys rolling with Benz and cool things and I'm rolling in my feet and I can do more then them

    Simply in whole my life nothing I can think on it or do more than computers.. they are my life

    look at it this way,

    there are millions if not billions of people in the world with a shitter life than you.


    edit:

    i should elaborate, be thankful you arent in a wheelchair and have spent 5 years looking for a job.

    why are you worrying about "guyz rolling in a benz"? image is NOTHING if you can't be happy with who you are and what you have been born with. come to terms with that before wasting your time worrying about material possessions.

    there is a reason work is called work, it is bloody hard work! you cant expect everything instantly. keep working, and what you want will come. but there is no point sitting on your ass complaining about it because it wont make anything come quicker.

    so again, think about every single person in the world that is in a worser situation than you. at least you dont have AIDs or something lame like that. now deal with it like a man.

    Julianmartin's got a point.
    Job or not, new computer parts or not, girlfriend or not: your survival needs are met by your parents. They may be mad at you from time to time, but they will not let you starve or kick you out aye.

    If you cannot work legally until you have done your military duty in Egypt, then you're pretty much f'ed for working legally. But, there are some jobs you can do easily without a "real" contract, such as paper rounds or working at the back of a shop, "helping out" because the owner is a "friend", if you know what I mean.
    Just make sure the country you live in don't imprison people for doing that before you even consider it, in these parts you get fined, but I don't know about where you live...

    And if that doesn't work out, seriously consider fixing/building people's computers for them. It's small money, but as long as you're cheaper as the shops you'll get some clients through word-of-mouth.

    And let's say nothing works out, the worst-case scenario... you will go to Egypt when you reach the age for conscript duty, you will spend a year in the military, and either stay there or return. Either way you'll turn into a man, as that is what the army tends to do (watch out in the showers though, I hear stories...).
    Up until then you will just have to be a man right now. Check your genitals. Are they male genitals? If so, you're a man. Take it like a man, like juliansomething above me said.
    There is a lot of knowledge to be gained, for which you don't need school or work. People who are long dead and were quite smart to say the least. That's what got me through five years of poorness anyway, and it also makes me feel better than everybody else. Can't lose!

    They shouldn't be. More money will not make you happy. Find a hobby/activity/sport which you enjoy and stick at it - it'll bring you far more happiness than a new graphics card ever could. If you're so determined to make money by building/fixing PCs - do you really think you can troubleshoot a computer effectively? Fair enough if you can, but if not, consider doing something like doing household jobs for your neighbours. The money won't be great but it's easy work!

    Also, sooooooooooooooooooooooo x06jsp. ;)

    get some cards, like a contact card with your contact and a name.... make a website were you can show your abilities on making websites, try making a website about the story of your town in Egypt. after you fix a computer or sell a site say something like: "tell your friends", do competitive prices, if the stores charge 30 then charge 10 or less, this will attract people, do your best always!!! NEVER GIVE UP!!!! and avoid doing illegal things like selling drugs, organs and people and robing stores and selling pirated software (if that is illegal were you are).

    You don't need a Benz, you only need your feet and a bicycle, it has more class and style than a Benz, is less harmful for the environment and will make you stronger and healthier... i think the UAE are flat enough..... :D

    try mixing computers with another things.... i breed budgies, i sell them at a low price to the stores and friends and with the money i buy stuff for me.... but i don't advise budgies.... they eat a lot and cost more than they give..... you can also try crafts, things with wood, metal and plastic... are fun to do and if you are good enough you can sell some of them, you can even make some simple furniture.

    Heh.

    Tbh I think this will all be fine in a couple of weeks. You just have to realise that computers/objects aren't everything.
