Assignment... assignment.... why so many of them :'(
I am stuck with my java assignment. Have time to try doing it but somehow I just put it aside for the longest possible time and now.... its hurting me.
I just don't seems be able to settle myself down to do my assignment. I really have to start taking a more serious attitude towards my studies.
My PC is driving me nuts
This new PC of mine is so full of problems.
First, its loaded with spywares so I try cleaning it up and I end up having to install WinXP (it's never my favourite)
I thought things will be fine after I installed WinXP but.... my network connection decides to go on strike too. Finally I managed to get it up and running after don't know how many times of trying and testing.
I lost MS Office after I formatted the hard disk, so I have to go source for MS Office. Luckily I managed to get my hands on a copy of MS Office XP Pro. Okay, great everything is fine now BUT thats not the end.
With the stupid Windows auto update on, I am prompt to update to WinXP SP2. I followed the order and it got my PC hang and I don't know what went wrong when I shut down the PC before the process was completed. Anyway, I managed to get it finally installed. In came some security features which somehow makes me lossing my network connection AGAIN!
Finally I got the connection back, so I blog to complain ;p
Another lazy sunday....
another boring Sunday... woke up around 9.30am and after taking 2 small bao, I head for the swimming pool. I need my swim!
Reached the pool around 10.30am and surprisingly, there's still some sun tanning benches available and I took one. Sun was blazing down on the numerous bare bodies (a pity there's no bikini babes in the vicinity for my viewing pleasure :p) anyway, proceed with my regular exercise of 10 laps in the pool. Surprisingly, I don't feel too drained after the 10 laps and seems to be able to do another 10 more BUT.... I didn't :p I just lie on the sun tan bench and bake for 15 minutes before I head home.
When I reached home, I 'replenish' what I lost in the pool workout by having Ben & Jerry's Chocolate chips and Cookie dough ice-cream ;p After lunch, it's nap time. No wonder I don't lose my tummy even though I did lost 3 kg since May 2004.
Birth of Darth Vader
Went to watch Star Wars III last night with a group of friends. Not a bad show, though 2+ hours but I don't feel like I'm in the cinema for that long. I'm not really a fan of Star Wars but overall, its a good show.
After effect of the show... I almost fall asleep at work while standing (yet another day of standing behind users). Was so sleepy after lunch today that I can't even have my eye focus on what I want to see. Lucky thing was I don't have to work late today. Was home at around 7.45pm. Took a one hour nap that's why I can blog now else I would be sleeping now.
For the second time this week, I got a "good bye" email. I wonder why so many colleagues left. Is the job market really picked up? I don't think I will leave for the time being, at least not till August. A friend did advise me to try for a post in her present company, I very much like to try but I feel that I should settle in with my studies first as I'm afraid I can't cope with a new job and studies at the same time. Sometimes I think I worries too much :p
zombie
I felt like I am floating in the air... nope, I'm NOT on drugs. I just woke up from my sleep. I went to bed before 8pm, not really by choice but was so tired due to the fact that I came home this morning at 3am (it's due to work) and back at work again at 9am. I really don't know how the developers can stand working like this day after day..... are developers human? :p
Supposed to be back in office now but for some strange reason they spare me tonight.
Is the weekend over???
I actually work 7 days this week. Was back to work Saturday and Sunday. Saturday was for some briefings which I think I can be excuse but then again I got class in the afternoon so not much harm done.
Today though at work but I managed to catch a movie (Kingdom of Heaven) with some friends. Not a bad show worth the $9.50 spent. YES! $9.50!! price of movie tickets went up a dollar since Labour Day. A friend in Australia complains that no one wants to watch movie with her over there. A reason she suspects was that it cost A$11.50 to watch a movie and that's a student's rate. Movie freak like me sure don't wish Singapore to reach that level too soon otherwise, DVDs sellers will be very happy.
Really tired now, but still waiting for the downloading of some virus removing tools from the internet to be completed. This PC I got seems to have tons of program running at the background but I don't know what are the programs for.
Don't think I can stay up for the match between Arsenal and Liverpool. Acutally I don't really bothered about the results for EPL liao. Everton seems firm on the 4th Champion League's spot. :-(
Back from Redang
Just returned from a diving trip at Redang. Diving wasn't good due to poor visibility but we do have a good time laughing at the jokes created by our driver. Food was pretty alright and the room was not too bad either. Only set back about our room, no sun shine (I was the sun to dry our clothes and gears)
Long time no blog... don't know what I miss out and should have blog :p Got a new PC from sister's boyfriend for FREE :D
