I just had a major nerve-wracking moment yesterday that I really thought I'll be kicked out from my company soon.

Well, for someone like me who isn't blessed with computer brain, it was a major moment. I don't know what I did wrong but I was just trying to rename my user profile directory through registry and then suddenly I can't get the Start Menu to open anymore. Take note, I was using the company laptop which means I'm dead if I break it. But I swear, I checked the tutorial I was following and made sure to do all the steps. And yes, I did it in safe mode. Yet, things still went downhill. I tried to google the error I was getting and followed different suggestions but I still couldn't get it to work! That's why I was in zombie mode today at work. I stayed up all night trying to figure out a way to solve this. Luckily, one of the fixes I found from my endless searching worked. It's to system restore my Windows. I know what system restore is and had used that before when I messed up with my personal laptop after trying to act like some cool IT girl and I would've done it earlier, and would be able to get an 8-hour sleep if only I remember my device's password. Obviously, I don't. That's why I even had to look for a way to reset my password! I was really sweating intensely all that time. Good thing I remembered when you use an Administrator account, you can change users' password and that's what I did. I swear I really thought last night would be the end of me. Fortunately, I am still here. I swear I'm going to make sure to use VMs from now on when I want to try tweaking my OS settings. It's about time I put to use the things I learned at college.

I still badly want to scream though not from frustration or embarrassment but out of relief. Too bad it's 11PM already here so I guess I'll just scream here. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
