Happiest day of the month...

have slowly draw upon its dawn hours by hours, as I eagarly awaits for it's arrival, glancing endlessly toward the upper left corner of my screen (yes I have to taskbar placed upward). Endless days of misery every months, all for this one day... the last day of the month when I see the amount appear on the ATM Machine's LCD screen :D... the always so little monthly paycheque...

After months and months of the official full version of Mozilla Firefox's launch, now we are seeing microsoft's in for the salvage... Internet Explorer 7~!... it is said:" Microsoft has shared publicly that IE 7.0 will be focused primarily on improving security"... but I wander... for more information go "Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 Details Begin to Leak "

Will IE 7 trive over the ever popular Mozilla Firefox? will Microsoft regain the "The Most Favorable Browser" award? will IE again, be microsoft Seed to internet domination again?... hope not. For at least, I'm with firefox

Now repeat after me: Down with IE, Ablaize Firefox~! Down with IE, Ablaize Firefox~! Down with IE, Ablaize Firefox~! Down with IE, Ablaize Firefox~! Down with IE, Ablaize Firefox~!....................

An Uneventful saturday...

begins today with a lazy morning, followed by meeting up with joey for a late breakfast, and a trip down to JB to meet old friends.

My gf's not around this weekend so I told myself, hei, why not just linger around with some friends, do some catch ups and begone with it?... well, meet up MoMo, Yong Shuang and Jessey in JB, had a good chat in one of the local cafe, and it was just nice to know everyone is still everyone.

Aparrently the coming monday is gonna be the hottest day around the year as the Idiocratic Earth revolve closest to the sun. I wander how I'm gonna survive the heat of 40 degree celcius. I've decided, I'll isolate myself in my "Cosy" cubicle and begone with the outside world for a couple of days. Came back home from JB, and while ironing, CNA is broadcasting some footage on how big corporations are contributing to global warming and how people are ignorantly greatful with the efforts they are putting forwards? Capitalism is leading us nowhere but destruction, Communism is nothing better, now what? Humans wake up, pack up and let's all live in the forest with no internet access *duh*...

Odd mood today...

Spend the whole day setting out production server for my newly developed application, at PMO Site. Sql Reporting 真的害人不浅, a huge block of hours spend today is troubleshooting how to set up a SQL Reporting Service installation on a different machine than the Database server. This really annoys me, and the peak of the frustration is, instruction documents from Microsoft websites actually have instructional errors, which, leads to hours and hours of fiddling and fuddling...

PC Fair starts tomorrow at suntec, Canon is expected to launch it's new DSLR, the EOS 350D/Rebel XT. Successor to the EOS 300D/DRebel which I have, this new DSLR had created a big attention at the world of photography due to its reduce in weight and size. Personally, I do not like it, cos first of all, the resell value of my 300D dropped drastically, 2nd of all, it is still the old flimsy plasticky design...

Well, had someone schedule a viewing for my 300D this friday. Still contemplating to sell or not, prehaps get rid of my old DSLR before the price pludge too much, and get a EOS 20D later?... heck... To all of you out there thinking of hopping on to the DSLR bandwagon, think twice of you have swallow pockets, this hobby is gonna burn a hole and a lot outta ya... :D

Just another boring weekend

First weekend of march. Just another boring weekend. The system that had me burn many weekends after CNY, to work on had finally commenced User Acceptance Test (UAT). It felt like a relief. Now all that's left is to complete the rest of the unfinish system related stuff...

Just went watch "Series of Unfortunate Events", a new movie by Jim Carey, with him as the evil guy. Pretty all right, nothing amazing. Now just finished the movie and came back home, log on to computer, and am staring into this screen wandering what am I doing on this boring weekend?... Life had been lifeless, motionless and directionless.

Shan had just forward me a 988 life radio link. Damn I miss the m'sia radio. There ain't no Cantonese station in singapore~! It's so freaking boring without cantonese radio station~!... what the hell is singapore government thinking?... xien.

Dreaded March, seems so harsh...

March. Nothing particulary special to us normal people who drag our days through the regular 5 days work week, no it's not spring either cos it's forever summer here in singapore. No nothing to do with us code monkeys either, but the effect somehow escalate... *Sigh*...

March, is the the deadline most company have to spend their previous year budget. Tones and buns of project are rushing to wrap up before then so they can bill the customer. Project managers are jumping all around with a wip in their hands pressing us to work harder... *sign*... it's just a terrible month for us tormented salaried level...

Nothing much had been happening around me except the regular workdays. Meet up with an old friend who I haven't seen for 10 years and had a really good chat flashing back all those memories of yester-years. Than brings back the time when we were in this BMX frenzy. Times when us whole gang of BMX Bikers invade the streets before dawn, jumping ups and down road bumps and side walk, spining our bikes with all the freestyle moves we have, and towards the rise of the sun when cars slowly reclaim back their road, we hit the coffee shop for a early breakfast... those were the days...
