I WON TICKETS~~!!!

This was what the starting of the email read:

"Congratulations!
You are the lucky winner in A CHINESE TALL STORY GSC Website Contest Round 1.
You have won 2 x Premiere Screening Tickets. Details of screening as follows:
..........."

Okay, the rest of it is not that important. Frankly, the email is not that useful after all since I wont be around the time of screening. Yea.....days left to lift off - 3!!!!! Oh gosh, I have my flight ticket, visa, winter jacket( I bought this REALLY cool jacket the other day, more like a trenchcoat)..but my luggage is still not packed. It's gonna be COLD. Lowest temperature will drop to 8 degrees. Excited? OH YEA....although a lot of stress will come afterwards.

And besides that, I got another new stuff, my credit card~! My first ever and it's close to making me eat bread next month. Swept it a a few times, but with BIG amounts. Darn, I'm starting to like that feel. Will try the same stunt another time next month. =D Subscription will be free if spent RM100 and above for the first month....WAH, I'm way qualified for that now.

Now the headache part comes about the luggage that I'll be bringing for the training. 2 weeks mann...that's LONG and in between the really tight training schedule, I have only one day break, and that break, suppose to read up on things. Quite tensed up also lar come to think of it, with the practical and exams. Kinda reminds me of uni or anytime that needed exams and all. What I like bout this whole thing is I get to go overseas. First time going overseas(except for Singapore), then first time on the plane..a lot of first times I guess. Interesting....heck, I'd even gave up the chance to learn up stuff for it~~!!! So that's it for now...I got other stuff that's going on around me for now....but I don't think I want to think too much about it. Will write another time.

Going ga-ga over new "toys"

I'm kinda reliving this 5-year-old-girl-getting-her-first-Barbie feel...Haha, just got myself a new mouse and pendrive. Been looking at my mouse with its blinking LEDs since I plugged it in the laptop, fascinating~~! ( Okok...I sound like some ulu fella with a tech gadget, so what?! ) And the pendrive, cool looking too. Camera batt charging, will upload pics of these new toys the next time. So I've been overspending since I got my pay...what's new eh? I've got to control it. Damn saddening...

Alrite, another story...been chatting a lot with my PM lately. He's going off to US to undergo training and he'll be leaving the project starting next week. It's kinda sad that in this 4 months, I didn't really have the time to actually learn anything much from him except lately. And he had to tell us that he'll be leaving. It's like me loosing a mentor. Was about to officially make him my sifu since he's been in this for years...and he had a reallly REALLY good background on this. He's nice enough to call me up and asked whether I was okay bout him leaving, I did say it'll be a loss, and the new guy that's suppose to replace him, he's not from the same technical background. My PM did ask me to hold back my questions coz might embarassed him with too much of technical stuff. We just laughed over that. Sigh...what a waste. Plus, when the new PM starts for about a week, I'll be off to China already. :P

And I had this chat session with another superior of mine. He turned out to be a little unexpected. Yea, he volunteered to become a match-maker for me. I was taking it as a joke. I don't really know whether he meant it or not also in the end, coz I got disconnected. Well, it came out unexpected coz I never thought that he's the chatty type. It was late, no one else in my list to chat with, so thought I'd drop him a hello. Interesting people I guess. But there's some politics going on that I know of and shall not tell anyone about. So better keep my mouth shut and my ass safe :D

SO that's bout all to write for now. Will add the pics the next time then.
