WEIRDED OUT! (sm)

Facing another busy week at work, but I still want write a little blurb about the weekend. The weirdest thing happened. Sarah and I have agreed to meet up on Saturday to look at cars, and so I dialed her cell number from my home phone. As I connected, my cell phone rings. Who called? Sarah of course. She called my cell phone from her home line. Talk about WEIRDED OUT! (tm - Strongbad)Anyway, today we are going to celebrate Romig's birthday. He is an awesome guy, and I am honoured to share this day with him.Time to go, there is a sale on Chunky Soup.

10 000 Steps (or 500 Miles?)

One needs to do something a little crazy sometimes, and I did such that. I ran out of train tickets yesterday, so after work I went over to the ticket center to get another book of 10. Oooh, that's crazy!? No no... there's more.It was 5pm at that point, and I had an hour or so before I had to go out again. I walked outside and felt the breeze hitting me. So I thought, what if I walked home? I started counting the number of blocks in my head, and it was about 66-70 blocks from where I was. Oh well, why not?Now one must understand that I am quite lazy when it comes to stuff like that. Heck, sometimes I would even drive just because I was too lazy to walk to the train station (which is not that far away). Well, the walk was awesome. It didn't just give me the 10 000+ steps per day, as suggested by Dr. Lau, but it offered me a chance to think about things. Where I was, where I am, where I may be in all aspects of my life.I made it home in an hour and 25 minutes. Except the sweat from the 17+ degree weather and tingly feelings in my legs, I felt good.I think I am going to do that more often. Sure I am always busy with work and stuff, but pushing that back a little for the sake of the walk was well worth it.Give it a try sometime.

Master Tammy

I am at work right now, waiting on an installation to finish. What am I doing at work? Well, there is stuff to do. I met up with friends Eddy and Li-Wei, who I have not seen in years. Lunch was great, with lots of catching up. Hope we will not have to wait years before we meet up again, eh?Oh, install done. One down, a zillion more to go. Before I go back to work, I must congratulate Tammy again with finishing her Masters and her new job. Wait, that's Master Tammy, hehehe...

Happy Birthday Teach

What a busy week? -- Hey, didn't I say that the last time? Well, it's true. After the weekend wedding extravaganza, it's time to catch up on work. Other than that, I guess it's also the catching up on sleep. I am sure I can say the same for the people involved in the wedding, no? Someone once told me that once you lose sleep, it may take a lifetime to catch up. Let's not hope that it would be the case, despite I have lost track on how many hours I have lost over my undergraduate days. A word to the young folks who dislikes being ordered to bed at 8pm: You'll regret it later.Before I forget, I would also like to wish Sara a happy birthday today.
