Back from Europe =)

Back from Europe after a 20 day trip there. Still rather tired out, both from the tip and jet lag. Unfortuately was unable to update during the trip as internet was hard to come by, not to mention expensive.
Everywhere was nice, although the people in Prague like ... gotten worse? hmmm .. Had lost weight liao.... wonder how much i lost. Must go and weigh myself soon, not to mention have to go develop the fotos too!
Will update again with pictures once i get it transfered to my brother's computer .... my broke down again, this time would be tough to repair... have to troubleshoot card by card, suspect motherboard or hopefully power supply, cos have strange sounds coming out from the system, but couldn't trace it.
Oh well .... at least i have time. =P

My new toy ....


Finally got my digital cam after years of pondering. Decided against a DSLR as i still love the feel of using my FM2. So had gotten a prosumer instead, a canon S3 IS, for shooting candid shots and for posting on the web.

Here's a view of my monitor top, where a bunch a cuties smile at me all the time ... and a coral soft toy at the far right of the picture. heh heh .. forgotten who gave it to me liao.. looks like ... ermm. .. go figure. =)

So would be doing a write up of my trip as previous backpack trip. But this time will upload it whenever possible and wif fotos!! heh heh. Dont think i can upload very often, worse case would be not at all until i come back.

Looking forward to the backpack trip and the new sem .... but 1st .. off to europe in another 3 days. =D

Playing politics ?? it only shows your ugly character

Today was a rather happening day. Politics finally arose after 20 weeks into my IA. An engineer wanted an exhibition for our projects, and wanted us to volunteer. After getting disappointing participation, we now have to email him AND CC to our company supervisor AND our NTU tutor to say that we can't VOLUNTEER for the exhibition.

HECK !! we even have to get our NTU tutor to call him if we can't make it for a meeting... how ridicuous!! We get to use our tutor as secretary??

Me to tutor: "Prof, you have to call one of my engineer in my company to tell him I cannot make it for a meeting. Why you? Cos he SAID so ...."

Like ... too bad MR engineer .... i lost all respect for you liao. To pull strings to get undergrads to work for you??? Find poly students and maybe from SMU ones instead.... but maybe i generalised too much. Its just that the poly student and ONE SMU guy on attachment in the company were too arrogant and manage to piss just about EVERYBODY else in less than 20 mins... woo hoo!!!! An amazing achievement.... DEFINATELY deserves a platinum award for being an ASS !!!

YEAH !!! Finally have idiots to laugh at ..... hopefully she gets kicked .. else the rest are going to suffer. Thank goodness i flying off on holiday soon. An added blessing. =)
