Lose/Forget my passwords(and everything important) Till last week, I used to download all my mails to my computer using outlook mails. Outlook mail is very useful when one has many mail ids. (like me). Don’t ask why I have many though. So the good part is that I can read all my mails at once, without having to enter the password again and again. AND all the mails are read from the same place. If one wants to read the mail again, you don’t have to open the mail, which saves time too.
So this outlook mail can be used for many things. For saving some important mails, for saving passwords, writing blogs, saving links, and whatever jazz is required. This is extremely useful when many people use the same computer and things have to be saved. (Like links to blogs – useful coz people at home don’t know about the existence of your blog.)
So what’s the stupid thing I did? Yeah, a week back, my dad called a guy to add extra disk drives. So what does this guy do? He decides to clean up all the other drives present. He asked my sister who was at home if he can do it. My sister asks me if any backup is required. I said no, coz none of my things are present in c drive. My sister gave the OK, and he cleaned it up.
I come home, and try to open outlook, which I can’t. The user itself is deleted!!! So every bloody thing that I saved is lost. It is still lost by the way. I tried looking for the backup files. But none are available. You get backup files only if you save it. (Duh!!) And since it was not saved, it’s all gone.
Damn stupid. I know.

The stupid things I do in a week
Lose my Form 16. Wow! This was so stupid, that I don’t even know where to begin! For you to really understand how I can lose it, I must start from the beginning.
I got my Form 16, and I got it home safely, without even a small fold in the papers. I keep it in the table, where all the newspapers and other papers are kept. I tell dad that I have got my form 16, and he gives a very long lecture on how to save money, and blah blah, things I really don’t wanna listen to at 10 in the night. And then, I go to bed and have a very nice sleep, completely forgetting the form16 which is lying with all the newspapers.
Days go by, and I am in blissful ignorance that we are required to submit the form 16 along with some other papers before july 31st. I get mails in the office which tells me all the papers that I need. And Form 16 is one of them. No worries. I don’t have to do anything since I don’t have to pay any tax. Right? WRONG!!
Apparently you HAVE to do it. You don’t really have a choice. Just do it. Ugh. So anyways, I go home, ask mom and dad where my form 16 is. Mom said it is with dad, and dad said it is with me, and someone said it’s with someone else. Oh whatever. No one had it. That’s the point. So no one has it. Mom said “You must have lost it”.
Me, someone who has not lost even a single eraser lost something so important? (The only other thing that I remember losing is my hall ticket during engineering. Maybe that will be a whole different post. But other than these two things, I have not lost anything I don’t lose things. I can’t be SO irresponsible! Strange that I should lose ONLY important things)
So I search for the Form 16 for 4 whole days, looking through every single piece of paper in the house. I even found my dad’s form 16, all neatly filed. When I found dad’s file, I was so furious. Could he not tell me that it is important? I would have kept it safely then. I know it’s a lame excuse.
Oh well, after 4 days, my mom found it! Yay!! What a relief. But I still can’t get over the fact that I was so stupid. I am pretty sure that I will not lose anything like this ever again. I better be sure!
Yeah, so I am too lazy to type all the stupid things I do. ( I have many. Hmmm, maybe I can start a tag. *evil laughter* Maybe I will do that someday)
By the way, I dont know what the hell is wrong with my internet connection. Every ten mins I get disconnected! What the hell? I don't know if some setting changed, or if there is some issue with the connection itself. VERY annoying!!!
