fAcE oF thE dArK

i have seen the face of the kernel and let me tell you this...

IT'S NOT PRETTY!!

gaaaah. last week was so frustrating.
one side was P the abominable and the other side was V the weak.

let me tell you a story..
there was once a manager called P. and she was a lil.. ok a lot crazy. and then there was her minion V the one with the weak chin.

while one complained of the tyranny of the other, all i wanted to do was learn how to work and get it done. after lying dormant for 4 yrs, finally my workaholic self surfaced and wouldn't take "lets just chuck this and go home" for an answer.
late nights in the office, and many-many-hours-sacrificed-to-the-lab-daemon later...

well the work got done. and the daemon was satisfied.

PHEW. now my head aches and i want to take a week long vacation.

whoa kernel level s/w debugging is hard. REAL hard. the rest of the stuff?? its peanuts!!

*********

wait a sec!! i just won a netbook in an office raffle. that is WIERD man!
i mean i'm normal! i've never won anything!!!

:O

what's happening ???? and why is the universe trying to screw with my head???

*********

was reading pibgorn comics over the weekend. as my love of books is rekindled.. then i feel... i feel like i'm meeting an old friend for coffee and chatting over all the past yrs we've spent apart.

^_^ yaaay!! i shall leave you ppl to do the exciting things like skiing and ... and... skiing. and dancing. leave me to my books and i shall be forever content.

nEw tEcH

i saw the iPad yesterday.

hmmm. i dunno. i'm still iffy about it. i still think its very cool. it was smaller than i expected. the only reason its bigger is coz of the screen size. i dunno how i would carry it around or hold it while standing to read.. i mean almost all the ads show ppl propping it on their laps right?

hmm well i still dunno.. mebe its just coz i expect so much from them. i really wanted to see holographic 3D projector displays this decade :P

now THAT would be cool.

but still right now its really cool to read magazines and comics on the ipad. ( i still think its a stupid name ) i can't wait to think of all the stupid variations that clueless men will come out with.. i mean the other companies, including the one i work for.
like smartpad. i mean "WHAT the Heck!!" can't u guys just pick a better name!!!

dO tHe jiGgY

these days i have a new pastime. ( oh my ADD does come in handy sometime )

its fun to learn something just becoz you want to or can. so i asked my mom what she remembered about my learning dance during childhood.
and she was like - "ummm.... your face was good"

uhhhhhh

"what!!"

"you mean to say i learnt dance, for 8 yrs and thats all that was good in the end??"

"my Face!!"

"i mean COME OOONNNN!! my face is usually just wierd smiling grimace or stoic in such dances. i mean what about the rest , like the hands or the legs.. aaah phooey. "

well A, has started a dance club. i'm like whoa! thats new. what do you guys do out there? and apparently the first class was all about the rules. how only A would put the steps and the rest would show no dissent, and how the rules would not be broken and everyone would be very dedicated....
I was vaguely reminded of high school or was it elementry school, when there would be the couple of popular girls and they would always... i mean ALWAYS start a group. and that group would be soo coool. and everyone wanted to join... yeaaaaahhh.. i think i'm a lil too old for high school again and playing dressup.

anyways its good, but i politely declined. besides its not my thing u know. the organized listening to a leader thing. :P and i know.. i JUST know.. i'd be itching to lead the first mutiny across ranks :D hehe

and A's bf bought a beemer. well!! apparently the red color Z4 which they flew to salt lake to drive back was quite the bargain at 24k.
i'm like... amazed!! he sold his honda civic and bought the beemer. brilliant idea, why didn't i think of it??

and now he has a yamaha bike, a set of skis, an electronic drumkit and a bmw.
lives in a nice independent house , with his gf and best friend.
hey, some ppl live lives, you know what i'm saying? life couldn't get any more perfect. ( touchwood ) and yes i am touching my head to ward of any evil eyes. ( oh reason! so easily defeated by dumb superstition )
