Remember this from a book...

Somewhere out there in that great universe of untapped ideas, there is something new waiting for me to discover it.
The challenge is to believe in yourself.
The vase expanse of emotional ooze that resides inside you is proprietary and unique.

Finally some updates...

Alright, have been off the whole week. Well, last friday(4/4) was my last day though. Ended up, I'll be going back to work at the same company again for alternate weeks. The schedule is, I work 3 weeks first then rest for a week then after that, work on alternate weeks.

I've send resumes everywhere. Sure hope I'll get a reply soon enough. Well, I guess I have to at least wait for a month or something. It's kinda hard without a good reel. So I'll just have to update my reel using those weeks that I'm not working. And yea, including my online portfolio, finally added in last year's stuff. Haven't start on this year though.

Instead of characters, I guess I'll go try out for environment this time, so I guess I'll have to learn some architecture stuff. And, yea, can say I always do those 'emo' drawings... Haha... Still can't really figure out about happy stuff though. Hmm... Maybe I'll try that sometimes cause I think it's gonna be really fresh and good, thanks to Banana for the tip! Hee...

I guess the reason for all those bloody and emo stuff is most likely due to stress? Haha... Ya know, sometimes it's like u've been working or studying for super long hours and things still don't seem to get right, just have the feeling of slashing and violence... Muahaha... That's probably why, it's sorta a way to destress, just like games!

Oh man... talking about games... I think I'm getting more and more addictive to PSP... Argh... Think I wanna buy 1 if I have the money... Thanks to 1 of my colleague who let me play on her PSP, FFVII Crisis Core half way through the story, then Banana who let me play Patapon.... Aiyo... Maybe I should I go get a 2nd-hand PSP at $180... But still prefer brand new though...

Yikes... But before that, I think I better upgrade my computer first. Need a larger monitor, probably gonna make it dual screen if I buy a new monitor. Then, need more horse power. But before all that, I better check if it can support that many RAMs... So, probably after 3 weeks, I'll be digging my storeroom for the manuals... Dun really know how it works though...

Actually, it's kinda a weird feeling to not work after working for long hours almost everyday. It sorta becomes a habit, like sleeping. Hard to get to sleep, and really sleep very little. Hopefully I'll survive and not turn to a zombie.

I did notice that people there really turn to zombies. Well, due to too much work and lack of sleep. For example, right after the female toilet's flush and lock are fixed, most of the female colleagues still used the key to open the already unlocked door, which they didn't even noticed that it's not locked. I guess it's either a habit or they haven't noticed it...

Well, everyone there really have too much work. It's sorta a turning point for the company and the projects kinda got squeezed together. Well, some of the projects are supposed to start much earlier, but because of certain reasons, it got delayed, so end up all the projects are squeezed together. And I guess it's after certain submission then the client will make some payment, so new people will come in slowly. Maybe after a few projects, there should hopefully enough manpower.

The projects are really scarily alot. And sometimes I do feel the tasks are kinda unevenly spread out sometimes. So just hope that things will go well.

Haha... Well, for me, I'll just work alternate weeks, make sure I'm not turning into a zombie, build up my reel, and get a full time job. Hope I will be able to study too if I get enough money.

Sometimes it does feels kinda more and more lonely. It's like alot of friends seems to be overseas studying or working... Ah... Have been sending them off at the airport. I always wondered if it'll be my turn one day... Be it good or bad, it really is good experience to actually go around the world.

Hoho! It's a long entry! Well, I should clean up the table right next to me... Yikes... And hehe... I think I gonna add a wish list. And, I still haven't started playing Cabal. Looks exciting though. I should play more games!!!

Okay, as usual I just random write stuffs that come to my head. Tmr's Lucas Arts talk, I'll get myself motivated and meet up with old friends. Alright, I'll be off to eat my lunch now.


I'll just go wherever the wind blows...
