The most unfortunate thing occurred to me last night. Apparently my school email & domain password was hacked and changed without my permission.
After much confirmation with friends that the webby's not down, I'm certain it is not a case of forgetting a newly changed password cos: 1) I am NOT so stupid to forget my new password 2) There wasn't any initiation of change of passwords, and neither was the password going to expire soon. 3) I was still able to access my email @ 10pm but by 12MN, I was unable to instead.
Given that the IT dept will only be open tomorrow, I'll have to wait till then to get them to reset my password (since I forgot to register for SMS reset) and check if it was indeed a hack or error on the system's part.
Meanwhile, pray hard that nothing's lost for all my vital information for school and work's all in it. [and my freaking com don't allow me to access offline. =*( ]
Past weeks have been spent drinking, drinking and trying to study while drinking. Nothing much have changed though...
Meanwhile, some status update... 1) Renovation's 95% done but on halt till next week cos everyone is out on hols, meaning I wouldn't be ard to supervise due to class.
2) Reset of Cowboy Bar & Opening of applications to public. Machiam like China tio liberated, 中国开放 lidat. =P
And as usual Cowboy Caleb, the owner of the bar cum brokeback gaylord cum sicko who indulge in horse pron & his stupid magic ponies, invites all who are interested & fun-loving to sign up and join us!! Do join us for lots of endless hedonistic fun!!! Upcoming event? MDM!!! MARTELL DEATH MATCH!!! Sign in for more details...
3) Once again, drinking as usual. For a change, drinking on Wed nite till Thurs 4+AM when class's at 8.30AM on Thurs = instant zombie.
Thanks to a certain unca (not disclosed) who invited me for the concert, i managed to catch Clash in action... Extremely crowded last night at the venue with lots of folks showcasing their cam to snap a shot of them. And my N82 just can't take a decent shot... =*(
Nevertheless, it was a great night... =D
4) I was 'assaulted' last night. Bah. Thank god my 'green white' ish still intact. No thanks to the other unca who keep 'instigating' me to do sth not-so-nice...
Meanwhile, Hell Week #1 coming... Time to get busy I guess...
Apparently, the workers were either: 1) back from Tao Huay break (Jaywalk & his PCK tao huay break thingy...) 2) On steroids (cos there's only 2 of them)
Cos by the time I got home after night classes, tiles and pretty much laid up to like 50% of the dining hall,
(I still no like the mound there. Mounds are better.)
And 90% of the living room...
With the exception of the balcony which requires HDB approval to level it (WTF?!), I foresee the rest of the hall should be done by Fri/Sat??
Pretty fast given there's only 2 workers who are mixing the cement and laying the tiles...
[The foreign workers does mainly those heavyweight stuff like clearing of debris and moving of materials]
After a long long time, we finally decided to have all the tiles removed and replaced with new tiles since the other tiles are pretty hollow below and at risk of popping up too like their earlier counterparts.
Day 1 On Tues the workers arrived and started to remove the existing tiles with their drilling equipments. By the time I've gotten home from school in the evening, everything's been fully drilled and in the mids of being cleared.
Fastforward to 8pm... Voila...All the tiles cleared and the materials shifted indoors...
Day 2 As usual, wasn't around in the day. Progress today was kind of slower than expected, since when I gotten home, all the sand are piled nicely in mounds (not THAT mound) at home, making movement kinda difficult. Even my dog who decided to 'escape' from the room was smart enuff to avoid it..
To my surprise however, only 1 worker was cutting the tile, mixing and applying the cement, and laying them in place. [What happened to the other 2 that I saw in the morning?!]
Comes nightfall at 7pm, only the small section near the entrance/kitchen was completed. Not exactly fabulous in terms of progress, but at least it beats having nothing to walk on.
While equipments like spades and barrows are pretty much kept properly, I can't help taking a shot of this:
Cos for a moment, I wonder why the heck would someone leave the cap on the spade. So sibei RIP...[too bad not helmet]
Now comes the $1000 question...[Not as difficult as the million dollar qn...]
If the person starts laying tiles at the entrance inwards... How is he going to use the wheelbarrow to transfer stuff into the house w/o damaging/scratching/cracking/etc the tiles there???
I'll be glad if someone cares to answer my queries...
Courtesy of Jasnot who tagged me with her menses..YUCKS! meme. So basically "Just list 10 things that make you happy on a regular basis. Hence, pay raises that typically come once a year won’t count. These are things that make you smile at least once a week…"
So here's the 10 things, not in any freaking order... (lazy to prioritise...) 1. Sleeping. MooMoo needs to zzz to be happy 2. Drinking. 1 glass a day keeps the Heart Attack away... 3. When folks say hi to me even though I don't bump into them oftenly. [esp. so at nightspots] 4. Babe-watching in school... 5. Encounter with cute stuff 6. Happy Meal! Helping others 7. Lazing ard doing nothing.. 8. Food. Subsistence precedes all other nonsense. 9. NIL 10. NIL
Thou shall not tag others cos everyone probably done it alr. besides, I can't think of 10 things oso. Aku not so happening + happy + god-knows-what-other nonsense. lalala...
Sorry for the LONG absence (though i think u readers probably don't really care). Have been out drinking for a LONG time...
Anyway.... Awhile back in end Dec 07, Sanrio announced new products specially targeted for guys. [Link] While I'm pretty much a sucker for getting cute stuff for gals, Hello Kitty for guys seems pretty ghey in a way or another.
And fast forward a couple of weeks, guess what I found...? ..... .... ... .. . A Hello Kitty Guitar.
And in a LIVE BAND pub/bar/club, no less. This ish da bomb, I must say. =) VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!
A couple of days late, but this entry still pretty much serves many purposes... For starters, from an accounting perspective comparison of historical performance vs forecast gives us an insight into variances and help formulate new forecasts. Also, for the sake of a written record, since human memories are fragile.
In 2007... - Gotten my best result evar so far after suffering poor results and a near-miss heartache (of dean's) in May. [BEST BDAE PREZZIE EVAR!] - experienced being 'mod-less' during 1st week of sch..[stupid bidding system...] - Thru my brudder-cum-boss JF, discovered new and fun places with live performances... - Broke my NY resolution of quitting drinking, and drank like a fish after exam. [Not exactly a gd thing, but that's altogether a different thing] - Met up for the 1st time with Uncle Jay, who never fails to make us all luff with his hilarious tales. [“又是你干的好事!!”] - Took the plunge in many things. Some good, other bad. [Let's forget abt the bad, shall we?] - Realised I tend to be quite a sucker AKA Robert AKA 菜头 and do stupid things sometimes...
As such, in 2008 I wish for the following... - Dean's List!!!! (B+ avg... =P) - To get my OBU degree by Dec 08 - If possible, to take my 2 option papers in Dec 08 and to pass them! =) - To gain a better understanding of myself and to rediscover myself again...[cliche...] - To clinch that internship at either Big 4 or with Credit Suisse, Standchart, Citibank, etc... - To have a chance to celebrate my bdae properly. - For better health, and a healthier lifestyle. - To discover a new love for hobbies, pastime, or anything... - Try not to be too much of a 菜头 in 2008. [Since I just did a 菜头 on the 1st fri of 08..]
Guess that's pretty much abt it. A simple yet crazy list of wishes...
