it has been a great month
new achievement(s) unlocked
01 – Work
sales of the year with
stable flow of jobs
proper time management
nothing really upsetting
02 – Travel
work n’ travel with
better e-mail management
during the previous case
I actually wasn’t prepared that
Gmail is no longer workable in China
this time round I was triple-prepared
setting up email forwarding to Hotmail
IMAP or whatever you call it to QQ and
a desktop-based email client Foxmail
with different degrees of success
Hotmail worked the best
QQ Mail works.. with delay and
Foxmail didn’t work at all
smooth incoming and submission processes
except once incident
surprisingly it was in Seoul
the Internet got disconnected at 2 a.m.
I was one step away from submission
because the entire floor
in fact the entire residence
was switching to IPTV with individual modem
oh come on
I already got those in
my express hotel in China
like quite some times ago
you mean my hotel in Seoul
was just about to switch to IPTV
at the time when I really needed the Internet
woke up at 7 and still the same
walked down to the lobby
completed the submission and
did another project while
listening to conversations at
breakfast tables of
people across countries
eavesdropping is a very built-in
ability of mine
probably as I am used to
listening to radio while working
the rest were just fine
but at times due to work
like I slept very late and
woke up to continue working
I started my city wandering
after 1 in the afternoon
directly skipping to a brunch
that’s like almost half of the day gone
thank goodness I travelled with my dad
and he understands and
is perfectly understanding
in terms of my timelines and working hours
that would build a good foundation for
my “Work n’ Travel” plan for
a longer period of time
not that I have any now
but if I do
I am now better used to the pace of
working anytime anywhere
especially if I am travelling
03 – Personal
travelling is the best reward
I can pamper myself with
that’s nothing I can ask for
in the mean time
I shall work hard for the winter
until the next island vacay
scheduled for
work hard to shed off the
extra pound gained during
the 2 weeks of compulsive eating too
till then,
Happy Halloween
p.s.
I just paid for a set of new Peanuts toy from eBay
soon the movie is hitting the theatre
soon it will be Christmas
soon the year is ending
soon..
