i came home n on the work laptop expecting to tie up some loose ends.. but i oni managed to send one email b4 the entire screen went white.. den pop up one prompt saying it restarted the display graphics cos its not responding n asked mi if i want to restart.. weird error but i restarted aniway.. after which the screen went white or black everytime i restart.. @#$@#$.. shld have finished with wat im doing b4 restarting.. now have to lug it back tmr.. hopefully its not mi who spoilt the laptop.. =X.. heng its just a loan n its lease is expiring soon.. otherwise sure cry.. everything inside cant access.. think its got to do with the updates i did last wk.. stupid updates.. kill the comp instead of patching up the holes.. @#$#@$

tdy is quite a hectic day.. first is to go swimming.. suddenly pig got some big 打击 n want to go swimming to build up stamina.. so ok lor go tgt but swim diff pools.. :p.. after which we measure weight.. she took first.. den i said how come our diff oni 4 kg but i look bigger size than her.. she said 4 kg a lot of diff.. -_____-.. guess wat? i stepped onto the machine n realised i gained 1 kg! @#$@#$.. muz b the indiscriminate eating for this wk.. -_____-

after tat went to collect passport.. by rite shld oni take a few min.. but the woman tout i want to apply in person cos the 1st photo i submitted was blur.. actually i resubmitted online oredi.. den she gave mi the queue number n i waited for like 10+ min b4 the person at the counter said i went to the wrong queue.. -______-.. so i went back to the woman again n got the queue number for the passport collection.. was done in abt 10 min.. yay!

but den cos of the wait den i was a bit late for jap class.. nothing much aniway.. these 3 mths all teach the stuffs which i learnt b4.. -___-.. even dozed off cos too tired after swimming.. finally lessons ended.. go this fashion shopping! got 30% discount! managed to buy one blouse after trying 6.. v cheap!

den i walked to suntec for the IT show.. which is quite a feat cos in the past i would have taken mrt.. until duno which day when my fren showed me the way to walk from bugis to suntec den i realised its so close.. -.-.. but i cant realli remember the way so i juz anihow walk n still reached.. haa

IT show quite crowded.. n theres actually an insurance co camouflaged inside.. so 贱.. oni took first step into the showroom n oredi got waylaid by them.. still asked mi if i int in buying digicam or not.. pui! everytime use this kind of tactics to bluff ppl n waste their time.. the woman was quite nice though.. so i toke a bit more.. albeit reluctantly.. told her i final yr student n my parents oredi bought life insurance for me.. HAHA. if she noe i working she sure pester mi till no end.. den she gave mi her name card n asked mi to call her if i int in buying insurance.. walked a few steps further n got waylaid again.. this time i juz flash her namecard n said i oredi got "chat" b4 n got clearance immed.. hehe

first stop was at pentax.. juz took one brochure n the salesman asked mi wat im looking for.. no idea so he intro mi to one model.. den he toke toke toke while i played with the digicam.. pics a bit blur.. but price quite cheap.. so i told him i walk one round first n c how..

nxt was samsung.. again got salesgirl doing promo.. so i played with the digicam.. a bit suaku duno how to use.. n the digicams not realli tat idiot proof oso.. so mani menus duno which is for which.. the impressive part was the anti-shake dsp.. the salesman said its not called anti-vibration but some correction thing.. -.-.. he shook the camera heavily while taking the pic n showed mi.. wah! the pic so clear! but too bad the shape a bit not nice..

visited the rest of the booths oso.. played with casio exilim.. the salesman asked mi if i got anithing to ask.. den i realised i duno wat to ask oso.. haa. play with the digicam oso duno wat to play with.. juz c the shape nice n price ok n big screen den gd liao

fuji is the "smartest" one.. other booths got salesmen but can oni attend to limited ppl.. fuji got one salesman doing ppt presentation.. can intro to mani ppl at one go.. the cameras quite impressive n his presentation quite gd.. now i noe wat is ISO liao.. haa. but den the cameras oso ex n shape not nice

went panasonic booth n saw the lumix fx8.. nice! but den the model i played with got no batt.. :(.. n the salesman was attending to someone else so i din get to fiddle with it.. sony cybershot looks gd but screen a bit small.. now 2 inch screen look so small as compared to 2.5.. n the model got no batt oso.. -___-

nikon booth too mani ppl.. ricoh uncle salesman asked mi if im intending to buy tdy.. -__-.. i told him i checking out first.. he asked mi which model i comparing n i said lumix fx8.. he said ricoh better.. obviously 卖花赞花香.. he did a demo.. camera quite gd n cheap.. esp the wide angle zoom.. but the camera look a bit lkk.. got skew correction n 1 cm macro thing but i guess its not much use.. he shot a close-up of a $10 note n can c the vvvv tiny words.. oso shot the logo on his shirt n can c the fibre.. i doubt i will use it in real-life? who would shoot so close up? do facial analysis n c how big ur pore is?

canon booth is the last.. but oso too mani ppl.. their cameras dun catch my eye aniway.. juz collect brochure n go home.. suntec so mani ppl until the escalator stopped working n got human jam

came back with one big stack of brochures n let pig c.. circled quite a few but i rejected almost all cos shape not nice.. haa.. now deciding between lumix fx8 n exilim z60.. prefer the fx8 one but ex by $100.. :(.. but got free 1 gb sd card! duno shld buy tmr or not.. or wait till the nxt IT show n wait for price to drop.. :(

last few days i was thinking its time to buy a digicam to prepare for my "maiden" trip to duno where at duno wat time.. den this wk is the IT show! in fact its tdy.. -__-... so yest i surfed thru some websites n did some research.. got so mani models! c until @.@.. the fastest way of elimination is.. slr out.. dun like the look so out.. so far got 3 models caught my eye..

Casio Exilim Ex-Z500

Panasonic Lumix FX8

all of them have similar looks.. i like this kind of sleek sleek design.. den got anti-shake dsp.. 5 mega pixels.. long batt life.. screen quite big.. but duno abt the price though.. den pic n how they look like in real-life may oso differ.. so still keeping options open.. first 2 got mani features written at their official websites.. look v impressive.. den third one got editor's choice at cnet for a few mths oredi.. colleague oso say its gd.. but i think shld b ex..

colleague n fren both say better go stores n check out first.. aniway IT show not much cheaper n i not in hurry to buy.. so mafan.. want to buy digicam oso need to do so much work.. need to compare price n features

how to tell when u have been busy for the past few days:
1. u reach home at 630 n ur lao ma say "come home so early ar?"
2. u surf net on ur own laptop n ur sis say "orh u not doing 正经事" (previously working using work laptop)

yest the manager showed us some drafts on the goals from the mgmt for this yr.. some of them r juz sooo unrealistic.. to put it bluntly.. crazy. luckily im oni affected a bit cos im not a perm staff.. but she say they may start checking our work efficiency by tracking how fast we can close the issues per week.. siao. they even expect us to finish within 24 hrs.. manager say dun need to worry too much abt it though..

tdy i caused the dept to incur $18 expenses cos i disabled the sim card permanently.. haa. blocked the sim card but duno the password to unblock so try a few times n it got disabled.. so malu.. luckily they din say anithing

fren's bdae coming soon.. sian. its always this period of time tat u realise u dun realli noe ur fren tat well cos u duno wat they want or wat they like.. buying gifts which they like is so diff.. or buying cheap things which they like is more diff.. haa. receiving gifts easier.. but den canot juz take n nvr give..

everyday so busy.. wkend oso occupied! muz go buy present.. muz go house-seeing.. the tout of going house-viewing oso sian.. so mafan n so mani things to take into consideration.. n the thing is.. pocket burn one big hole.. n parents make a big fuss over small things.. @#$@#$
