It’s been exactly one week since I last updated my little journal, and I’m sorry that I’ve been procrastinating so much that I’ve neglected this space. But hey, I’ve been rather busy for the whole week so it was difficult to actually find time to even sit down and think about what I’ve done.
The last week was not too bad – work was OK and so was school. The highlight of the week has to be the department retreat to Shenzhen – it was a really tiring trip! We visited the OCT East(東部華僑城), which is supposed to be a new theme park on the east side of Shenzhen. The greatest thing about this theme park is that when we were there last Friday, it wasn’t officially opened yet! They were still testing out things here and there, so the things are either very new or not in function yet. That said, it was a nice little experience, but I don’t think I would want to go there again any time soon.
My MacBook has been giving me some problems lately as the screen seems to keep flickering very often. And to be honest, it isn’t exactly a very good idea to run Windows on a Mac because it seems to drain the battery out much quicker, and shorten the battery life quicker too. I really think that if I’ve just used it as it is things probably won’t be so bad, but since I found out the hard way, my recommendation for those of you who own a MacBook is that – don’t run Windows on a Mac unless you are having a MacBook Pro.
Met some NUS alumni for lunch yesterday and it was a very interesting gathering. It seems to me that I’m the only one who is working in an environment that’s relatively less stressful. Sounds like I’m getting envious of myself already.
And with United beat Chelsea that is probably the best way to start a new week!
