Movies

Nope. I didn't go to cinema to watch movie.

For the month of February, Starhub is providing preview channel for its available channels.

Today, the preview is mainly on movie channel. Not HBO, but the movie channel that shows mainly chinese movies.

Of course, don't expect the latest latest movies. Some of the movies shown were just few years old. Some were like over 10 or 20 years ago.
But since it's free, watch for the fun of watching.

Went to Geylang earlier to buy fruits. In particular, mangoesteen, my mother-in-law want to eat. Of course, Karinna WANTS to eat too! hehe
Being the colourful place in Singapore, seems like many things to see there. But no lah, we didn't really walk much around that area.

Nowadays weekends suck! All the shows on TV are pretty boring. And the movie channel apparently is showing something which doesn't interest us.
*yawn*

我的独处 使世界变得冷漠
你的介入 改变了我的生活
拉开了我的窗帘
为我带来了阳光

温柔的你 使我无法忘记你
端庄的你 使我无法抗拒
愿你常伴我左右
海枯石烂永不休

你的声韵 永记心里
你的微笑 令我着迷
望你知悉我心意
不再让我乱猜疑

Quiet day

Yesterday was a quiet day.
Didn't really have any plan to go anywhere.

Anyway, as usual I am always on second level support duty on Saturdays.
Was fine until about 3+pm that I have to take a look onto the problem reported.

Not really a major one, just need to take some time for the data to be loaded correctly.
In the end, it looks like it is going smooth, so I left it to my colleague to continue the work.

Then went to see my mother-in-law at Econ.
No place to sit, so I have to sit outside reading newspaper. I really just go and "SEE" her.
See and sit down elsewhere. hahaha

Then went for the meditation lesson. Last lesson. This time talks about some preparation needed prior to going to retreat. Next retreat is from Mar13 to Mar22, can't really go. Too close to my Japan trip.

Then went to Cold Storage at Katong Mall. It's 24 hrs!
By the time reach home, already 1130pm.

Just to check to make sure the things were done ok in the afternoon, went to check customers' system to see how the monitoring went during the day.
Seems good.

CNY Dinner

Last Friday, we had our sort of annual CNY dinner with our group of friends.

We went to this place Ming Kee Live Seafood at MacPherson Road area.
Karinna and I went there before, she likes the crab there, so take this opportunity to eat again lah. Simple right? hehe

We reached there earliest. The rest were not so sure of the place, but they were not very late either. Not so bad.

We ordered about 8 dishes I think, excluding the Yu Sheng. Anyway, the Yu Sheng was no good. :P Nothing missed.
The mussles was good. Frog leg with essense chicken is not bad. Vege with 3 different kind of eggs is delicious. Deer meat was ok. Of course, the main attraction crab with bee hoon has to be good.
But I didn't eat the crab. Too troublesome. heheh

Georgina was back from US for the CNY. Seems to be having a relaxing life style there.
Eugene had an exciting time with his luncheon meat during one of his maggie mee cooking. Got a deep cut on his finger, which was already healed when we met.
Wee Boon, coincidentally also his birthday on that day, was 'forced' to treat for dinner, which of course didn't happen.
Christina, was trying to describe some fruits from Taiwan which we seldom see here, and said she will bring some to Singapore the next time she goes back Taiwan. I don't know those fruits, anyway, I am bad with fruits.
Mike, as usual, the silent participant, and I don't think he said more than 10 sentences througout! We are used to it anyway.
Cheryl, the only person that hears Mike talk a lot, is changing job scope. Cool. As long as it is better, or if what someone wanted, why not?
Calvin, the mahjong king, seems to be happy with his new working environment.

All in all, the dinner was good.
Then we moved on to Siglap area, had a drink at Coffee Club. Then we had a short discussion about whether we should pay carpark or not. Reason? The carpark only had information about paying parking from morning to 10pm.
Does it mean that there is no need to tear carpark coupon after 10pm?
To play it safe, we did. Only 1 of us didn't. hehehe.

春风为我带来了希望
夏天为我引来灿烂的光芒
秋风为我传来你的音讯
冬季使我不禁想起你

想你 不知今夜你在那里
听你 再次期盼着你
看你 心中泛起多少涟漪
恋你 又再次想念着你

春夏秋冬已过去
时间已不再停留
过去的事已过去
你我也不必去在意
让我们重新再来
让我们迎向未来

SAP

Last week my colleague was installing the SAP IDES SEM60/BI70 system. Somehow, it failed a few times.
I took over the installation as he was going back to Indonesia for the CNY.

It failed again, and I re-started everything again last Friday, before the CNY holidays.

The progress was slow somehow, and it finished only on the 2nd day of CNY if I remember right.

Well, nowadays SAP system are so confusing. It has Enterprise Portal within it, and somehow, it wasn't working correctly.
The system itself is working fine, I can login into the system and do most of the BI stuff.
But things related to the portal just doesn't seem to work correctly.

These portal things are looking like nightmare nowadays. Guess I need to sit down and think carefully over the configurations. I know how to do some workarounds, but hey, I don't expect everyone to do workarounds manually everytime when trying to access that Portal thingy!

Anyway, not very free today to continue troubleshooting that.
Have a proposal to complete by today or early tomorrow morning.

Life is getting exciting ...

V-Day !

Cool. Now feeling like a dragon again.
Oooops! Salah.
Now feeling like a SiowKow again. :D

Was already much better yesterday, and went to sell my Nokia 6670 away. Still able to sell at $150. I think it's ok.

Was trying to clean up my house a little. You know, cheena new year coming, must do a bit of work mah.
Still quite messy lah, and I think I still have loads of things to throw away.
Think my house quite cluttered, especially since got people usually put things around but never clear. So cool huh!

Eh. Today Valentine's day. Dunno do what. Rather, nothing special to do.
Everyday also V-Day for me. *grinx* hehe

And no, I very poor these days, no present! *bleah*

Very Sick!

Today is not a good day.
Continuing from yesterday's tummy problem, today is just prolonging to make me feel sicker.

Had woken up at around 3+am to LS.
Morning wake up another time LS.
Evening time LS again.
Could have been more, but I was just controlling to make myself visit the toilet less often.

All these are still ok with me.
But one happened at around 7+pm.

For no watever reason, while sitting dow watching TV, I suddenly feel COLD.
BRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I usually feel warm all the time.

You know, I feel so cold that I shiver. And just cannot stop shivering. Even when I jump onto my bed and pull the blanket all over me, I am shivering like mad!
And due to shivering, my muscles were all tensed up! Geeeeeez

Karinna tried rubbing my thighes and arms, but no use lah.
I felt very miserable actually, but I only tell myself try to counter the pain, and if possible, fall asleep!

Dunno how, after shivering for I think 10 minutes or so, I managed to fall asleep! :)

By the time I wake up about 1/2 hr or so later, you cannot imagine the kind of relief I feel.

Maybe have to see doctor tomorrow already. :P

Sick!

terok terok!

Today whole day stomach not feeling well. In fact, yesterday already like that, but today a little bit worse.
Stomach like a little bloated (rather, quite an understatement). Keep feeling like going to toilet to you-know-what lah. But I didn't go that much. Control control.

Worse, painful somemore (at the a** of course)

And best. today like almost whole day outside also.
Morning to Rochor road there and buy stuff, Evening go visit my mother in-law, then go for the meditation class again.
oh yes.. ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz again :P
what's new?

Now still a bit groo-groo-groo at the tummy
How? Sigh

Corporate World!

Yesterday was again another tiring day.

Had a demo today, so yesterday had to work with colleagues to rush out the demo stuff.
Left office only around 11pm. Not that it is first time or wat lah, nowadays work where got so good that say fixed at finishing at 6pm?

Somemore, IT consulting line, life's like that.

Best of all, supposed to go client's side at 10am to prepare the setup, since the last time my colleagues went there, they had a hard time getting it done with the network ports stuff etc. Don't really know what happened, but today's was ok. Just need to fix a coupl;e of things.

Best of all, the meeting/demo was at 2pm. So early, so kiasu. Sigh.

Anyway, the point is, corporate world is indeed a corporate world (what else can it be?). We were there at 10, but couldn't do anything until 1.30pm!!!!
WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY?

Last minute tell me say some boss in there were not told that we were going there that early to prepare for the demo. What a waste of time! @!$#%&%^$!@#$^%

Nevermind lah, at least today go home earlier. :D

Ah-ha!
Yet another crappy stuff from the past. Anyway, I have nothing new in my database.
Just re-living old stuff.

==================================
按捺不住内心的情感
只因你不接受我的真
愿为你牵走忧愁
愿为你带来欢笑
无法忘怀的你
叫我不能不想你

若你是朵花
我愿为把泥土
若你是道彩虹
我愿为你身边的云
一日复一日
一年复一年

你的身影
不曾在我记忆失去踪影
你的笑意
在我心里永难忘记

我心涌向你
我心属于你
此时此刻
直到永远 。。。

Again, something that was done some 20 years ago.
At the same time, testing if the chinese characters would show well.

=========================================
柔和的月光
映在你脸上
是你照亮我心房

热情的太阳
就象你一样
温暖我心坎

仰望星空
仿佛你在空中
在水面中
也有你的影踪
在深夜中
请你也到我梦中

自从和你邂逅
一直在这儿等候
期待你的出现
期待与你见面
思念总在分手后
我也会继续等候
等候你的出现
等候与你见面

Project Superstar

Just finished watching Project Superstar 2.
Winner is, much to general expectation, Daren.

As for me, i prefer Diya to be the winner. Just feel that she's a better singer, that's all.
Anyway, it's not expected that the best singer should win, as it is more of popularity contest. As long as you are able to generate interests from public to watch/vote for you, you are the winner.
Well, Daren does have his own charms. I think a lot of girls love his dimples. hehehe

Alas, the First Superstar Finale, I also preferred Kelly, but she also lost to Wei Lian.

That's life. In life, you win some, you lose some.

Now watching Apprentice 5. Left that Lee and Sean. Funny selection that Lee pick, no wonder he lose. hehehe. Cartoon.

Meditation

Yesterday went for the 2nd lesson.

As usual, the ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz monster likes to attack me.
Tak boleh tahan siah!
Then my wife tells me my eyes red red 1, and on verge of closing all the time.

Very hard to practise leh like that. Everytime want to concentrate, then the monster will appear.
Distractions! Distractions! Distractions!

Actually yesterday also went People's Park. Wanted to check out on tour to Japan. To see the Para Para Sakura. Then I can dance para para ok! :D
All the tours for Sakura not ready yet, so cannot find any package also. oh well.

Then the place so crowded. From there can see Chinatown was full of people. Don't even want to think of trying to go inside there.
Driving there is also a nightmare liow. Getting out of People's Park carpark is just as bad!

Conclusion: Best time to go is weekday afternoons! hehe
