What's up in June
Started off a gloomy Sunday with a hot bath and a healthy breakfast which consists of: two petit pains au chocolat, a cup of mocha and half a tub of a 200g muller light strawberry yogurt. Plans for the rest of the day: update blog (on it now), do some 'Work' work ( presumably it would occupy my whole Sunday 
), watch F1, go to the gym, do laundry and then clean my room. Productive? Or boring? Haha...
Actually wanted to go down central london yesterday to check out the Summer Sales. Unfortunately with the 'bomb' incident in Haymarket, I thought better avoid getting close to anywhere central london for the time being. I would imagine the transport links going havoc...mind you, it's England...And so, went to Brent Cross Shopping Centre in Hendon instead. First time to the mall. And it was packed! Yea I know it's Saturday...Sales everywhere but I ended up buying all full-priced items. I think I need someone to teach me how to buy On Sales stuff!!! For some reasons I just find those items on sale not captivating...What I bought: a pair of Firetrap shoe (love it), two tops from Republic and a dress from Kookai (love it as well
).
Another incident happened last week, my vaio laptop got infected by a worm. I was downloading some games from Limewire, and thinking it's just a game, ran the executable and the stupid worm copied itself to my windows system folder and stopped some other windows executables from running. Having not being able to run cmd or taskmgr, I can't stop the freaking worm from running. Formatting is the ever last thing I would wanna do!!! And so, searched for some solutions on the net and came across Cyber Tech Help, which provides free online techie help. And...problem solved after fixing some p2p files.
Oh yea, after coming back from NY, got infected by the "must-have-been-a-US-virus" and started coughing
. And so wasn't that productive for the first two weeks after my holidays. Went to Boots and ask them to recommend some medic for reducing phlegm. Catarrh pastilles...and I'd say it worked. Cough died down after two days, and having consumed two and a half pastilles, LOL. By the way, would welcome advice from doctors and medic experts for other cough solutions.

Capturing WMP Images
And so...
I watched The Holiday the other day and Cameron Diaz's house in LA gave me a tinge of ID inspiration. The stair case caught my attention. Thus, I was trying to capture the image of the stairs from Windows Media Player playing the movie. After a few failed attempts using Pause and Print Screens, Full Screen and Print Screen etc etc, I thought why not search for some solution. And viola, straight to the answer.
There are actually a few methods to do it:
a. Simply do a CTRL-I and WMP will prompt you to save the captured image to the disk.
b. In WMP, go to Tools -> Options -> Performance Tab and reduce the "Video acceleration" from the default full to none. Restart with the file you want to play and do a ALT-PrtSc to copy the image to the clipboard
There you go...I prefer the first method ;)
