Recap

Past week or two was about…

Throwing up. Had special fried beef kueh tiaw with bitter gourd only to end up not feeling that special. Stomach was like a washing machine in operation and ended up vomiting at office. Went to get my first in-house clinic MC, so i had the afternoon off.

Starbucks (*again). No matter how many times i say it’s over priced coffee, i still somehow end up there. It’s not because i am loaded but i guess it’s a nice place to hang out, talk and wash eyes. The drink is just the second banana la. Hmm, banana…speaking of which i had chocolate banana muffin.

Silhouette. After Starbucks, with Loi. Kinda emo because one member not around anymore…so heehai to you ‘member’. Anyway, saw one pretty waitress there la :P JD Co*k, James Blunt, Akon, Usher. Oh ya, loi gave a 100% genuine sua teng kah comment regarding the bar stool.

Recipe audit. No, not your cooking recipes but recipes that tell machines what or how to do things. I had to check quite a lot of them, in fact hundreds of them. Staring at a monitor for 3 long days is NOT cool. Especially when you need to be meticulous checking all the numbers.

Missed call. Was driving home for work after a late one, (*blame the audit) phone on silent, missed the call. Got the message, happy, glad, sad and confused all at once.

MBA. Went for my first class. Not a big class, about 17, just nice for me. Lecturer is quite good, cool guy, not the old fashion kind that nags at everything, if you know what i mean. Very very interesting to be among the youngest of the class, having all experienced banking, construction, managers, business people around you. Hope to learn from them too :) Only complain was that class duration was a bit too lengthy, 4 hours to be exact.

Interview. At a data solution company that serves the oil/gas companies. Not a technical job, very relax but need to work on 8 hour shifts. Operates 24/7/365. May not get the job though because of my weekend classes.

Gym. Working my ass off ok.

Cough. Very bad coughing, infected lungs i think. Skipped the morning at work to see a doctor, prescriptions end up costing more than consultation and scope fees. Just slightly better. I think the cough is in love with me, refusing to fck off and i’m getting a little worried why it’s not.

Wafer review. Part of what i do at training. I honestly do not mind doing it…that’s if i get a comfortable chair with back support…however, we do not have that luxury in a clean room so i only get to sit on a dwarf ladder. 1 hour/wafer, 7 wafers, you do the math.

One of my best friend. Named Compaq. Stuck with me through thick and thin, rain or shine, laugh or cry (*literally). Assignments, tutorials, reports, slides, programming, presentations, pictures, internet, movie and music. I took care of it well and after 4 years it still looks good as new, works like one too. Unfortunately the battery is long gone, unable to do what it’s supposed to do anymore. Like a three legged dog, it still can hop around but it’s somewhat paralysed. I decided to put it into retirement and to have it stay at home, on a desk.

Asus. The new recruit. Not the best, not the fastest or even the biggest…it’s tiny and that’s the way…ah ha ah ha…i like it…ah ha ah ha. Thanks dad! :) Wo ai ni :P

Choices. Was offered to extend my internship. I’ve worked so long i don’t think it’s called an internship anymore. I think it’s called ‘push-water’ (in hokkien) job with allowance. Want to move on because i’m a little tired of the fact that i’ll always be a trainee. Don’t want to move on because i do not have any stress being a trainee, also in my comfort zone and sometimes it’s like i get paid to laze around. Haha. Anyway, most probably won’t be extending.

Hair. It’s slowly turning copper brown and it’s getting long. Im really hoping that i can resist not cutting my hair for now because i want it to be long. I failed so many times before. Colour is still not too bad, not beng or bak kut teh-ish IMO. Can’t imagine what my poor hair went through, from black to blue to ash green to blue to copper. Really loved the blue though.

The call. Thanks. Wished it was me going ;( Feels wrong. Really sucks but do enjoy yourself. Store will be ok. Hope it won’t be like your usual flight, maybe you’ll see snowflakes again.

…aishiteiru. Take care
