Turn Back Time

If only I can turn back time...

After reaching home on Monday night from a 20 hours flight, jetlagged, tired and suffering from PVID (Post Vacation-Induced Depression - my own term for a mental condition that only I suffered, not medically proven though), I downloaded all my pictures from the Italy/England trip to my laptop.

I was damn fucking sure that I got all the pictures in my laptop before I format the memory card.
When I was trying to sort the folders, tiba-tiba I noticed that my '04' folder is empty! And that folder is the one with SF's graduation picture and our time in London. I was searching it everywhere, scan the whole hard disk and FUCK!!! It's not there...

That was when I really wish that I could turn back time and undo everything.
Now, I wasn't so DAMN sure that I have downloaded all the pictures, at least the last card the had the graduation pictures.
Was banging my head and all and have to let SF know about this...on her BD.

Asked DL if there's any way to recover the lost pictures, he said that there's some software that can do that, but not 100% success rate. With the little hope, I tried to scan through the hard disk, but can't find anything...

YL suggested that I tried recover from the memory card, but I don't have a card reader. So have to wait for tomorrow to get the card reader from SF.

After being in a totally-miserable-feel-like-jumping-off-from-building-feeling for almost 24 hours, and with the help of brilliant software, managed to get back at least the graduation pictures. All the pictures for Stonehenge, Hampton Court & London were gone. Now, I don't have to feel so bad, and can live on with only half the guilt for the rest of my life, unless and until I have the ability to turn back time...
