hungry

Why do i always feel that my stomach is empty!

even after lunch, half an hour later i'll feel hungry and look for something to bite. and even when i'm typing right now i feel that my stomach is only half filled.
i think i'm not eating enough. i need more FOOD!!!

my friend said that i'm having a second puberty. well, maybe...

i think i have to go for a buffet to satisfy myself once and for all and be scared of food after that.

yay next week buffet hor jack and mei?

oh btw i'm applying for exchange at US next sem! wish me lucks.

The office

every morning i step into the intern's corner, my greetings comes first: Morning!, then comes 3 female voices in unison: Morning!
and i feel like the Charlie from Charlie's Angels. haha. except the angels part.
(did i mention i was the only guy in the intern's corner?)

Our meeting room is called the Huddle room, and yesterday afternoon jazreel had nothing to do, she used her long pink scarf to seduce yi chian, and said she wans to huddle with dixon in the huddle room. HAHA. (dixon is her office crush).

During lunch, we forgot to call sarvesh for lunch again, but only jazreel had his number, so we asked her to call him and she said: if I have Sarvesh's number means i have to call him everyday, then i have police's number means i have to call police everyday?

Ultimate quote of the year.

lately

so how's work lately?

well, pretty much the same. no routine work definitely.
work place is cold, boss's away for the week. nothing much.

so how's life lately?

yea i know i haven't been blogging much. i hope i can still revive the blogging spirit, coz the monitor is what i am facing for 8 hours a day and i certainly want a change in view when i get home.
Usual weekends means hanging out with friends, exchanging what i've earn in the past week into frivalous enjoyment.

so how's school lately?

yes my internship report and logbook. Procrastination is my enemy. Enuff said.
I have also been researching on schools to go for exchange next semester, either for one term or for next summer which is both cool for me. The only concern is the getting-it part.

observe

somebody asks me a simple question while chatting.

"Are you a refined person?"

and it sets me thinking, why some people love to ask these sort of stupid and rhetorical questions.

for example,
Somebody asks you, " Are you a humble person?"

You don't know what to answer because
If you answer yes, it shows that you are actually not.
If you answer no, you are also not.

So which answer does the asker expects?

Its akin to asking Yanzi if she's a good singer, or Meryl Streep if she's a good actress.

DUH, CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!

firstly, you don't ask a person about himself, you should OBSERVE it yourself!!
And secondly, if you do that, it just means that you are either superficially retarded or plain lazy to observe.

I mean, its ok to ask them about their hobbies or physcial stuff, but not personality or character. Like you can ask me if i like spiderman (of coz i'll shout yes) or if i am a techie but not if i am a cheerful person or i am a humble person.

I know some people would LOVE these kind of questions because they can say that they are very cheerful but in fact they emo all the time. These are people who loves attention. For kids: ok. For young adults: immature.

OBSERVE, MAN!

at Exxon

As compared to fast-moving bank stint, 2 weeks into work here is rather relaxing.

Banks make deals everyday so they have to be processed every single day. No matter how many there are and how difficult they can be, they are still routine. Marketing, on the other hand, takes up more time and brainpower mainly because of its complexity and the ever changing environment.

As an engineer, i felt quite weird doing marketing. It is not physical and you can't confirm the final product or results, for example making a laptop consists of many processes and parts but the end product is still physical and touchable. It's just graphs, a lot of talkings and assumptions, data, information, but no end results.
It's like zero gravity, nothing for support or hold things down, only plain imagination.

Well, thats my jobscope and at least i have unrestricted internet!

one thing i can't get used to is the safety policy. Do you know that...
you will be fined $40 if you climb the stairs without holding the rails?
you can't fill your cup more than 80% full coz you might spill it?
you must knock on the toilet doors before entering because somebody might be at the other side?
there are safety mirrors all around corners?
you can't hold a cup and turn your chair at the same time?

yups. Strict Rules just like the army.

My first trip to the Bird Park ever! yea i know, there is always a first time rite?

The birds are super cute! I really want a pet Owl and Toucan!!
Any takers for my birthday present?







My darling Pear is back for Sera's birthday party!



watched Salt with the guys



Quite a nice action movie, some scenes are not stable and messy and causes motion sickeness. Angelina's performance was amazingly fantastic, especially her eyes. you can't tell what her eyes are saying but you can tell her expressions. The plot's not bad, just that the filming was a bit amateur. Overall a great summer action movie.

Next up: Airbender!
