-Tuesday-

Finally Back at work today after a day of rest at home, headache still there on and off. Decided to carry on with the medication. Today there is a special event that will be happening in the evening and thats the Blood Moon Eclipse. Its blood red~~~ :S

-Blood Moon Eclipse-

Pic taken from http://www.discoverychannelasia.com/eclipse/index.shtml

The Sun’s light includes all the colours of the spectrum, but only red light can penetrate through the gas and dust in the Earth’s atmosphere to reach the Moon. If the atmosphere is relatively clean and only a small amount of dust is present, then more than just the red end of the spectrum can filter through, making the Moon’s dark surface appear washed in a feeble grey or yellow hue. Even more dust gives it a tobacco colour. The colour range runs right through to blood red, when a large amount of dust is mixed in with the natural gases of the Earth’s atmosphere.

Can see the Live Streaming of Blood Moon Eclipse - Springbrook Research Observatory at the above mentioned URL.

Fixing my sis PC and changing my Casing, thanks Mr Teo for helping but tis mth really eat grass le~

-Tuesday Blues?-

Its been awhile since i last posted, busy busy~~~

Finally, parents decided that they will go taiwan too and of cos with extension.
Been busy with work, expect to stay late again everyday. =(

When will all these end? Till the day i quit? Will it be soon?

All buay tahan le, budden haiz, wat to do? Blame it on that STINKNET and PUI MIOTV, its bound to fail, tink u can win Starhub? Dream on ba~

STINKTEL itself is already so UNORGANISED, cant even provide us with the correct information and keep on pushing us to site repeatedly even if problem lies with them. SIMPLY PUSHING all responsibilities and jobs to VENDORS. What they do? Go tea break lo~

Brainless bunch of ppl there~

So Friends who read my blog, DONT dont dont go sign up for STOOPID STINKNET and PUIMIO TV. Both USELESS Services, even seeing the commercial on TV makes me sick~

Nothing much to look forward to tis week thou~
Lets see how things goes ba~

- Pre-TGIF -

Its been 4 days, so bz for these few days~~~

Parents confirmed their trip to Taiwan but not decided on the extension. will come to a final decision tonite~

Busy busy the whole 3 days, from helpdesk to control centre stuff~

There is even a complain email today when i came in and its so long long long stating all the trouble that he faces. But he called in again and appologise to the admin gal and appologise to me too~
Was totally shocked that he appologise, well, he seems ok and quite polite. Sometimes anger really change a person~

well at least i m able to solve his problem. guide him to configure the router and everything is up and running. Sometimes really tinking what is STINKNET doing? They cant be anything helpful but LOVES to guide user to RESET the router and DONT help them to configure back. Bunch of INCOMPETENT FOOLS!!!

Well, lunch time, go tabao le~

~ 不能说的。秘密 ~

Its the nicest show~
Everything seems so sweet for both of them till something really make the turn and wow its so unexpected when u noe wats the secret!!!

Great Show, Great Song!!!~
周杰伦 赞!!!

不能说的。秘密
冷咖啡离开了杯垫
我忍住的情绪在很后面
拼命想挽回的从前
在我脸上依旧清晰可见

最美的不是下雨天
是曾与你躲过雨的屋檐
回忆的画面
在荡著秋千 梦开始不甜

你说把爱渐渐 放下会走更远
又何必去改变 已错过的时间
你用你的指尖 阻止我说再见
想像你在身边 才完全失去之前

你说把爱渐渐 放下会走更远
或许命运的签 只让我们遇见
只让我们相恋 这一季的秋天
飘落后才发现 这幸福的碎片
要我怎麼捡


Looking forward to tmr's dim sum lunch at Li Bai @ Sheraton Hotel~
