Cats....

This cat is now suffering from severe brain damage. Someone please contact the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA). I would gladly divulge information and name names for a reasonable amount of cash.

Waking up every morning to clean the cat litter box for 9? 11? cats might not be an ideal way to start the day. But I'd rather handle cat litter than hunching over a desk trying to solve the equation for charge carrier recombination in a semiconductor. Having a blocked nose also helps.


Some of the cats at rumah Taman Sri Gombak. They are not even doing catnip, that's all I'm saying.



This however is not a cat although he has a tendency to laze around all day doing nothing and getting up whenever he hears the sound or the smell of good food.

This is also not a cat.

This is procrastination at its best. Burnt out from the week. Kena tiau because of less than impressive measurements.

Back to the Rat Race

After a self proclaimed holiday for nearly two weeks; no going to uni, no hard labor, no mo' shaving, I was ready to reluctantly step back into reality and go back to work.

The ride to Monash from Parkville is approximately 25km. Takes me a good 45 minutes most days. If in a hurry, I could slash 15 minutes off. That's what I like to think though.

That's not the main point.

I use Princes Freeway almost everyday for the past 5 months. Yet after only two weeks, I have managed to get myself lost and could not find my way to the uni. Ended up at St. Kilda beach instead.

Fail.

Productivity and Work Ethics

Went out to uni at 130pm. Riding in 34 degrees weather is no fun at all.

While on my bike, wanted to look at the time but I realised that I forgot to wear my watch(RM 40, Ampang Park).

Scheiße!

I decided to soldier on without my dear watch. I can't just let a small thing like this hamper my productivity for the day. Work ethics and disciplines are important when you are part of an organisation. When you are confronted with a minor setback, always view it as an opportunity and not to dwell too long on it.

By 330pm, I was already on my bike heading home.

What work?

After the submission, we had a party in the honours room. Good fun.

Next dateline is not until the end of February. Summer daze ahead.

Honours kids.

It's been great knowing you guys. I'll be stuck in the office alone all summer long. Although I can use this to my advantage, like running around the office naked.

Hmmm ideas.

Congratulations on those finishing. Tough luck to those still struggling.

Sleepless Nights and Apples

I don't have any exams to sit this semester but still it feels very hectic. Now have very prominent dark circles around my eyes.

The presentation went well. Standing in front of such a distinguished audience, big shots of the physics world, tends to make you shake in your boots. But after the initial butterflies, I managed not to screw up big time or embarrass my supervisor.

Next: literature review.

Submitted my first draft, it came back full of red ink marks.

I spent 3 sleepless nights trying to finish that and now I need to change everything and write a new one.

My sister went digging for apples and she managed to find old pictures from our childhood.

That was me being held by my father when I was don't know how old.

A friend asked me, "Why you look cute when small but grow up not so cute? Your dad also very fair but why are you not so fair?"

Haiya. $64 000 question.

Oh yes, it's Movember again people. Start growing your mo' for a good cause.

Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street.

Heh heh.

Work

Back to work. Forget Big Brother, he's a wimp. Darth Vader is watching.
