Nothing much happened during the weekends except the fact that I have been spending time relaxing at home. OK, probably not as I did mentioned that I went to Ipoh yesterday :). But then again I only went there for the PPP 1st Mix Plus machine and I do need my workout badly :p. To my surprise is that the price has dropped back to 50 cents for 3 songs, so that’s definitely a great deal as I have been spending hours there playing. Not to mention the attention I get (cough WHORE! XD). As much as I’m kinda disappointed that no paralist were there, but at least I get to talk with people and get to know some new friends, and that’s pretty fun actually :).

But later on, my emotions goes for …

Yes I’m safely at home now, enjoying the warmth and relaxation back at home :). Probably I’m lucky enough to have several homes, but the one that I have live in for almost two decades is always the most special and important to me. Guess I’m just lucky enough to have my parents.

I think I’ll be going out today, it’s been a while since I last went to Ipoh. Let’s see whether there’s any one paraing there, kinda miss the physical exercise that I have been missing for the past few weeks.

It does seems that today that I just have that feeling of starting to get the hang of the job. It’s quite interesting to see that all the hard work is starting to see some sort of progress, no matter how small that is.

And as things turns out, I came to an affirmation that I do need 6 to 8 hours of sleep in order to have a fresh day. As much that means that I would have to sacrifice my usual lifestyle and have to make sure that I need to sleep as early as 11 (although this shouldn’t be counted as “early” by some standards). And this sacrifice is definitely worth it as I do find the thrill and motivation when I’m much more awake and alert. But somehow …

It’s been a while I haven’t felt so tired (physically, and probably stressed as well) that just lying on the bed is a pure paradise to me.

And now I’m be starting another working day. 😊

Everyday, I just feel as if my work gets more and more challenging along the way, but it doesn’t seem to be too daunting as I’m starting to find my direction towards my research project.

Anyway, CD of the month is Ayumi Hamasaki’s MY STORY Classical :). And all I can say that the album rocks. Now the only quirk I had is that Ayu’s voice doesn’t seem to fit really well with a grand orchestra… at least the first few tracks anyway as I just feel that her vocals just go out of place (more like as if her vocals seems to be “superimposed” or pasted into the classical mix). And I was pretty disappointed with GAME as I feel that her vocals are best replaced by string instruments instead …

Happy mother’s day to all mothers in the world :). Raising kids is always the hardest, most challenging task in the whole wide world in the first place.

Anyway, just came back from a talk just now. OK, honestly it is supposed to be a graduation night of my friend, and it turns out to be a graduation night of a short course in Crown Vision International. And for those who knows pretty well, that means that it just have to a lot of Amway stuff. But somehow after going through the whole thing, I’m starting to see why these people are so enthusiastic about it and manage to attract people to it. And I’m starting to see and understand what the business and management books are all hyping about: That one of …

After finishing Linus Trovalds’ book “Just for Fun” within 10 hours time, it really give me some time to actually think about my own life. Basically for the uninitiated, Linus Trovalds is the who brought Linux into the computing world and Just for Fun is basically 80% of “crappy” (in his own words, after one statement which goes something like ‘once the readers got hooked with the first few pages of the book, we can just fill the rest of it with crap’… Or probably I’m just having a bad memory in recalling the exact quote, since the book is not with me) yet extremely fun biography and the remaining 20% filling with his serious thoughts on issues about open source and his views in life.

Honestly speaking I was thinking of dedicate a …

I’m just easily amused :p.

(Highlighted in yellow) Should I read this as two real movie titles or one very suggestive (yet imaginary) movie title? XDDD

I believe sometimes all these little details about web design can be extremely crucial in presenting information. As much I understand these kind of information tickers have a really strict space constraint on the page, however the table could use some wider column spacing, at least a pixel width slightly more than one character space.

OK, off to work now!

New work, new environment, and I really SWEAR that my absent-mindedness needs a cure desperately!

More challenges ahead of me as I found myself in several odd and embarrassing situations while I’m still trying to adapt with the things around me. The worst part is that I slept in the office and I got caught by my boss O_O”. Luckily he took it with a sense of humour but GOD I’m so embarrassed about it. Must sleep earlier this time round.

As I’m entering my second day, I still have a very high mountain to climb up as I need to learn as soon as possible so that I can be anywhere from being slightly productive to the company. But for now I’m just glad enough that my colleagues are extremely …

Let me use one word to describe how I feel about my first day at the job: STUNNED! O_O”

And so today is the beginning of my first full-time job I ever accepted. Somehow there’s a lot of things that I really need adapting, especially when it comes to my sleeping habits. It’s like… I NEVER wake up as early as 6 in the morning in my whole life, not to mention that I have to wake up only with the help of alarm clocks! Even during the days of my primary and high school years, I only need to wake up 6:30 in the morning, and that is pretty much done reluctantly after being woke up by my parents (of course, I really missed those days. 😊 ).

One good thing I really …
