If you watched Lost and Heroes, you should find this very very funny.

I am reconditioning my IBM R51 laptop's battery right now. It still has 39mins to complete the procedure. This laptop went abit crazy a couple of years back as I could not load Windows while running on its battery. It just loads all the way up till the "Welcome" blue page of Windows and hangs there with the mouse cursor in the middle. Also, when I unplug the AC adapter from the laptop, it is supposed to automatically continue running and switching power supply to its battery. However it just hangs there too. So earlier on I updated the IBM's bios and hopefully I can run on battery again.
I just came back from Rong Xing and Rong Shan's 21st birthday party. It's like a mini sec 1C/2C class reunion. We had the twin sisters, me, Finian, Shawn, Kok Chin, Deborah, Vanessa and Mah Chin Yee from our old class. It's almost a quarter of the class size ! Rong Xing and Rong Shan, in my opinion were and still are very enthusiastic and friendly twins. That's why they had so many great friends during the memorable party. 3 teachers were supposed to come. Mr Tan Eng Wee, Ms Stacy Choo and Ms Porscia Tan. But only the NCC teacher-IC came with his son and wife.
We had a game with chairs. We place the chairs in a straight row. 2 teams will send a member to start on each end of the row of chairs. They have to bounce on each chair to bump to the opponent coming from the other end to to play Scissors Paper Stone. The loser will stand up and leave and his/her teammate will enter on the first chair and bounce the chairs to stop the opponent(winner) from advancing. A team wins when the player reaches the other side of the row of chairs. Girls, being girls, play tricks on the guys HAHAha! But against such big odds, I won the one and only round miraculously sia... And they had a small upright piano at home! So I popped the question to Rong Shan when the twins walked us to the MRT, "So you know how to play to piano yeah?" She revealed to me that she's got dip. in piano. WOWWW! I will definitely appear at her house to learn from her if she's free to teach me. yay ! Good things come your way when you seek them earnestly ;)

What a twist of fate. I went to Tuas and reach the warehouse at 9 am sharp as usual. Everything was going smoothly, even with the 3 new Chinese guys. But the lights and power in the workshop room got triggered off 5 times in a hour. Some staff came in and check here and there and pinpointed that the source of the short-circuit was from somewhere above us.
The employer received a call shortly after 10am. A stock-taking lady who works for the warehouse also came in to inform him that there's a batch that do not require software updating. And geez, we were really working on that batch of goods. So the employer smiled at us and said we are done with all the work we are supposed to do. So we cleaned up the place and headed to the canteen for a lunch treat from the employer. The generous gesture was actually more for the 3 poor new fellows, who came to work for 2 hours and had to stop abruptly. We joked so much about it hahahaha...
My next stop after dismissed from work was Recruit Express at JE. And I took home 4 amazing magazines from the Jurong East Regional Library. I almost forgot how much I loved that library and its magazine selections.

"Okayyy, I think, you all can stop for today already. The three of you...", the employer said to the 3 Indians at work today. The other 2 Chinese guys and me thought he'll reveal to them after work because he told us that. It will not affect the working rate in that way... But they really pushed the "Heck care. Anyhow do la" button and it went over the limit. The whole time they were talking amongst themselves and they're not quite "auto" in assisting the constant flow of the goods. One of them was supposed to transfer the boxes I've packed to a loading palette but he'll just let them pile up to 10 over before touching one of them. I think I may need to give them 2 more lifetimes before they'll offer to assist me in my work when they'll free on their hands. That's not all. There's a tea break time in the afternoon. They will relax in the workshop during the break and when time's up, one of them likes to go off for a long time and then comes back with drinks and food. WTF? Thank God for ending the "tolerance" test for me today.
Although it was quite tiring in the first 2 days, I felt alright with today's working speed even though we had a new record of goods checking.
1 bad thing happened after work. We were all waiting outside the gates for the company bus. There was that family of stray dogs again. Me and Terence were chit-chatting about dogs and stuff then there was a sudden scream for help. No, not by humans. By the dogs. A Toyota Wish ran over of the 2 puppies on the road. With human-like instinct, the 2 parent dogs chased the fleeing car but it was too fast for them. They went back to tend to the crippled puppy who managed its way back to the road side. Some container drivers who were present went across the road to take a look, even helping to place the puppy to the walking pavement. Sigh, life just isn't fair for all lives, but God always is.
1 fun thing. I brought home some budding seeds from a plant. My sisters used to put them between pages of a book and they will grow. It's quite rare to find this plant growing around anywhere. I count myself lucky in getting it.

Today was my first day of work(1 week assignment that lasts until next thursday) ! To speak the truth I've never worked before. Holidays were usually spent going out with friends, playing computer games and doing holiday homework at home. Typical I would say. But this time round, I have alot alot of things going on for me ! It's like moving on a gargantuan cloud of faith. Thank God for all the things that came. I am indescribably grateful.
I'd like to swim in the morning tomorrow and attend church in the afternoon. Sunday there'll be Basic Theory Lesson 1.02 and Practice in midday.

Started on a new score today. River Flows in You by Yiruma. Also popularly known as Bella's Lullaby from the movie Twilight. It's worth all the hard work practising it.
***Correction. "River Flows in You" is NOT Bella's Lullaby. It seems like it because many Youtubers and internet users created such a big deal about it that it actually was it. But I'm going to practise it just as hard, with or without the connection between the movie and the alleged song.

Today I took at step of faith - to the driving centre at bukit batok. Totally Eye-opener. The young lady at the information counter was Woaho0 hot ! But I soon realised the rest of the female staff wear almost as thick make up as that lady and most of them dyed their hair dark gold or blonde. The guy who gave the briefing for new course learners was explicitly trying to use his diaphragm to speak. It almost felt like he had a compressed lung when he spoke. But maybe that's how he endures endless hours of saying the same thing over and over again. It took me more than 3 hours from the time i stepped out of house and back.
I don't know why, but today was like my "peach" day. When I waited at the bus stop near my house, a nicely tanned and sporty looking girl came to wait for bus too. I thought she looked abit of caucasian.
Then onboard the bus I took the middle seat at the last row. I noticed a girl who had the backview of Celine. I was then not at all surprised if a face of Celine turned back and look at me.
Commencing Week 9 day 1 from 5pm onwards. I'm going to train at the fitness corner in my preccinct and not the one at another preccinct because there are just too many distracting kids there. The last time I went there was more than a dozen kids there running, playing ball, fighting, crying. Mostly migrated from China.

I found 3 super nice games on miniclips recently.
Viking Defense - It's concept is like your ordinary tower defense game, just that in this one the enemies come in the form of floating vessels, underwater creatures and flying monsters. I'll definitely choose this one over dota's TD every single time.
Snow Line 2 - This should be a very new concept game for most of us, less the iPhone users because they have a similar game called iPhysics. Basically in SL 2 you have to draw lines to guide an elf to get 3 presents and then get to the checkered flag. It's funny to see how he fails with a missing line to help him advance and falls helplessly. If you get stuck in this game I can give u some tips.
Quick Fire Pool - A single player pool game where u aim to pocket all the balls in the fastest time. You play alone against time and not against AI player. Good for people who want to improve their visualisation on playing actual pool.
I completed both games with huge satisfaction, especially the SL2 because its time consuming to keep pressing the "Start" button to get the elf to go through the plan u've drawn for him.
