Me & shitian @ indulgz after today's paper!

Chef's Crispy Pasta w Chicken & Mushroom Cream Sauce

I don't find it nice...too creamy for me...felt queasy after eating it

it reminds me of sheng mian.

Butterfish Steak ( A must try!!!!)
A Hawaiian fish with a chewy texture, creamy taste and a sweetness that is unique to only itself. Served with Mesclun, truffled hand-mashed potatoes & mango salsa.

I'm loving it =) Doesn't have the usual fishy smell...the texture is differnt from the normal dory, catfish, salmon that we eat.... the only minus point is that the portion is too small for my appetite!

Been wanting to try it since last dec...finally got the chance...will be going there soon again! Anyone interested? jio me!!!!!!

Fish RULE!!!!!!! =)

Question 1

It is often said, " Changing a mountain is easier than changing oneself". What are your views in relation to the current work environment?

Question 2

It is difficult to trust someone who behaves differently in different situations. Do you agree? Elaborate.

Question 3

Discuss the impact that diversity would have on your career.

when i saw the 1st question, the first thing that comes to my mind is the well known chinese proverb, jiang1 san1 yi4 gai3, ben3 xing4 nan2 yi2. I couldn't figure out how it is linked to this module. Well, since i'm supposed to do 2 questions out of 3, i guess i've not much of a choice but to do 2 & 3. Haven't been writing essays for 2 years, highly probable that i'm going to smell a first C for sem.
Dunno why the eng department make this module a compulsory one for us.....
*shudders*

14 weeks of IA....10 more weeks to go! i thought i could slack another month or so after my IA but today i received an email regarding my fyp being pushed forward to 2nd of July...sigh...that means right after my IA, i will be starting on my fyp...=( =(

Next week will be my exams...luckily only 1 paper.

The CEO from my company (with 8000 employees under him) came to pay a visit to SRC. He was super friendly..the moment he stepped into our cabin...he started waving at us...he even shook hand with me & chat with me despite knowing i'm just an IA student. That was quite unexpected because even my own area manager & account manager don't seem to acknowledge our existence. Shame on them.

An event that happened yesterday....

me: (holding an escape mask) erh....is that the expiry date? ( 06 2006)

Senior engineer:Oh yes..i think so...how many expired?

me: two expired...and four still could be used

(fyi we have 7 pple in our cabin)

Site supervisor (my supervisor): huh? escape mask got expiry date one meh?

me: .......

(all the staff use those mask everyday and none of them knew that some of them have already expired! acutally a few weeks ago, i've already alerted one staff that the masks have expired. But no action taken...maybe they are all sucidial.)

Area manager: oh..expired? order 7 more!

(she very ks...well she's new)

In the end we only ordered 4.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One thing good about this new manager is that she loves to approve our "request list"

for example:
3 more bikes? ok..approved...go ahead...

(actually...we just bought 5 bikes last october, one got stolen, the rest are dying)

i hope they get those that comes with suspension! *prays hard*

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some random stuff:

1)This week's weather was great...thank god/buddha/whoever up there for granting me wish for rain...=)

2)had headaches for 3 consecutive days.....but it subsided today...phew...

3)the 3rd pay check is late again...and i'm not surprised....=\

4)And i found out that i'm more of a brain person than i hands- on person....
Because....
Maintaining the phosphate level of the boilers...not a problem for me... similar to analyzing data.
but....
Clearing airlock in pump...i'm a total failure...i just can't seem to use the spanner to turn the knob...it's too manual for me...bleh

5) the lift broke down again...barely 1 month...its back to climbing again...a total of 272 steps...

went running yesterday..cos work didn't seem to go well.....i've ran 13 laps.. *3 cheers*.1st time wor...actually i ran 9 rounds without stopping...then walked 1 round to cool down...the run was smooth & easy and the weather damn good..so windy & cooling...*shiok*...while i was cooling down, xinwei suddenly appeared and so i went to join him since i wasn't tired...i ran another 4 laps while he ran 15 laps.... tired overtaking him on my last lap..but he wastoo fast...
