updates

hm.. realised it's been quite a while since i last posted something here.. so thought i'd give some updates as to wat's been rocking...


well, first off.. i got a new phone! a Motorola L2. some of you might be aware that i already have a Motorola L7. but i wanted a L2 cos it's one of those rare non-camera, non-SD card slot phones which means it's suitable for work! woohoo! problem is - Motorola for some unknown reason, doesn't bring it in for sale in Singapore. damn.. wat's a guy fed up with his fat Nokia 6021 phone to do? and it doesn't help that it suddenly decided to go mute all of a sudden...

so i got on eBay and got me a L2 all the way from the US of A! the phone itself was pretty cheap, but shipping wasn't. cost me a grand total of 160 singaporean bucks, but i guess it's still comparatively cheap. so now i got me 2 razor thin Motorola phones! kewl.. the L7 with the camera and expandable memory for the weekends and the L2 for workdays.. next up, i'm thinking of getting one of em PDA phones with WiFi.. well, being an IT professional, i figure that i should have something that lets me hook up on the whole Wireless@SG thing.. alrite.. something to work towards..



work-wise.. things are going to get a little crazy.. peak period is coming and there are tons of preparation work to be done. more stressful now since i'm in a slightly different position than before? have to keep track of tens of little things all going on simultaneously... but i guess i have to get used to these sort of things if i really wanna do project management.

just got word on how much bonus i'd be getting.. and let's just say that i was pleasantly suprised.. hehe.. ya, ya.. they say money isn't everything.. but hey, it sure makes me feel better.. haha. at least i see it as a sign that the company and my superiors recognise how much hard we work.



all the New Year feasting and celebrating going on the past few weeks have really caused my weight to go up. and seeing how one buddy of mine is putting in effort to shape up and better himself and kinda inspired me to do the same. so i guess it's time to stop slacking! gonna be pretty hard with me having to be at the customer site often for the next few months, so gotta find some way around that...

and as proof that i really need to do something about this.. i find my chair starting to tilt backwards today... hm.. that's weird.. why is it tilting backwards all of a sudden? so i checked around and realised that one of the legs is breaking.. dammit! looks like i gotta get me a new computer chair asap.. it doesn't look like it can hold out much longer..


i seriously am looking to go on a holiday at the start of june. any one interested? possible window is vesak day at the end of may to first week of june. can't go before that cos i gotta work. can't go after that cos my mcsa courses will be starting again in the 2nd week of june.. so if i don't go for a holiday then, i think i might become psychotic.. well, ok.. MORE psychotic.. lol..
