Work

Yesterday

During the lecture/ workshop, I was sitting in between my boss and my colleagues. Perhaps it was after lunch, 飯氣攻心, but sitting in a leather sofa is so comfy, I could not help myself from "fishing" 「釣魚」... Hmm... It was not easy to escape the eyes of the consultant, but I might have slept in front of her for like 3 seconds. hah.

Today

During the teleconference yesterday, I was told to get ready for the NIH site visit in a week. Today, I received some guidelines for what I would possibly be questioned. Carrying the printouts, staring at the 13 3-inch binders, I was not happy but to start studying. Alas...

Caribbean Blue : : Gulf of Mexico

還記得這首歌嗎？


每個地方的風土人情都很特別，今次去了墨西哥。在Hotel Zone 的沙難上，光是望着蔚藍色的天空和海水已經很寫意。

Day 1: arrived at Le Meridien Resort and Spa & seafood feast @ Crab House
Day 2: Xcaret (a water park located at an archaeological site)
Day 3: bus tour to ChiChen Itza & clubbing
** 自從去年的意外，遊客已不准爬上塔頂。回想以前我在參觀另一座差不多高度但已被多次破壞的瑪雅金字塔時，曾危坐頂部破落的一角自拍，果真是「唔識死」。其實這座塔又真是幾高ge。難怪當年旁人話我crazy啦！
Day 4: the dolphin experience/ skyrider & classy dinner @ Aïoli
Day 5: sunrise on Ballenas Beach

旅途中的小插曲：

• 旅遊巴被中途欄截
• 常被以為是日本遊客

回美途中:

• 在我座位的同一行和前一行，我遇上了一個中暑的女生 (she was with a group of tanned people，一個愛子心切的父親 (he said he had to sit with his son no matter what) 和 一家三婦人 (grandma with psychological condition, her daughter and her granddaugther)。他們在機艙內擾攘多時，雖然我已應他們的要求和他們交換座位，但是全機爆滿，很困難地終於在飛機(在跑道行走時) take off 前達成共識坐下來。
  
• 美國機場入境處的安排... 一個字： 亂。

雖然如此，整個旅程是愉快的。享受加勒比海風情之餘，又對瑪雅文化有了更深的暸解。加上當地的人，無論是遊客或本地人都很友善，經常主動替我們影相。另外，同行的美女們來了一個大解放，拍了不少水着寫真(我的則欠奉)。哈！

同墨仔講完bye bye，明早又要「捱驢仔」了。

July 4th Weekend

Pocono後記

去Pocono之前，我已經有一段日子沒有如此開懷大笑過。

「男子組」加「女子組」合共十六人，我們玩遊戲，煮飯仔，看電影、電視，shopping，water rafting...還高談闊論了大家的五年計劃。就這樣我們嘻嘻哈哈地渡過了一個愉快的週末。

「充電」回來，我心情甚佳。此外，Cancun遊又出發在即，真令人期待。最近墨西哥治安不太穩定，加上今趟是「女遊團」，我會多加小心。

投入

投入工作是應份的；玩樂時的投入程度都應該是百分百。

正如旅發局話齋：「Live it. Love it」嘛！

所以明早去踩單車，我興奮極了！

Firefox Download Day 2008

If you link to mozilla.com today, (and if you are lucky enough to get through its BUSY site today), then you will see this message: Today is Download Day - help set a new Guinness World Record!

Download Day 2008

Join us to set a Guinness World Record for the most software download in 24 hours!

Please download Firefox 3 by 17:00 UTC on June 18, 2008. That's 10:00 a.m. in Mountain View, 1:00 p.m. in Toronto, 2:00 p.m. in Rio de Janeiro, 7:00 p.m. in Paris, Madrid, Berlin, Rome and Warsaw, 9:00 p.m. in Moscow, and June 19, 2008 at 1:00 a.m. in Beijing and 2:00 a.m. in Tokyo.

Don't ask me if this mission has a point, but it did get me curious. I was #1,888,019 (I saw 018 and I added one assuming that it was me) on the site to download the new version. Pretty slow... Anyway, the number jumped to 1,924,281 just minutes after I finished downloading it. I am wondering how many people are going to do this "interesting" mission. Okay, I need to figure the new features out. Ja nei.

Happy Father's Day +

今日除了是父親節和弟弟生日外，還有別的意義。

去年今日，我畢業了！

Monday Morning Blues? No, it was May Day Blues.

Staying in a convalescence home is not the best way.

I will be going to convalesce in Mexico in July.
