Best Birthday.. EVER!

Today is my 24th birthday.

Normal "low-profile" birthday. Celebrated with several friends and family, received several birthday sms'es and mms, no gifts though. Haha. It's not the important part. The most important part is the thought. I hereby sincerely thank to people who wished me except Michelle where I had to send her a message telling that she had forgotten my birthday though she claimed she want to give me a surprise by being the last one to wish me and I had spoilt the fun. My first half of the day was quiet and peaceful and I was expecting a better and happy second half.

Too bad, the above was not the things that make my birthday this year's the best in my whole life. Someone chose to did something that I would consider in the wrong time, wrong day, wrong moment and whatever. This "something" can be done on any other perfect day but maybe the issue was being too great and had to be done on this very day.

To you-know-who-you-are, million, billion and possibly trillion of thanks for making this birthday my best and most unforgettable birthday ever. I do not think there will be any moments, celebrations or occasions that could possibly beat today.

Somewhere in the future, this post could be in the middle of no where in this cyberspace. No matter where it fly to, I couldn't possibly forget about this day, ever!

THANKS!

Somehow, the birthday had a lot of good things but too bad the bad thing overshadowed the good ones. GOD DAMN IT! THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A VERY HAPPY POST! >_<

UPDATE (2/10/07 12:39PM):
Michelle actually postponed her surprise to the very early of next morning. Haha! ^^
Thanks ya! Quick think of what to treat me on Friday's night after work! xD

To Lynette - Thanks ya! xD

Super-weekend Mood

Have you ever had a training that is 3 minutes long?

I had 2 trainings today, "Print Issues" and "OmniPOD". The first one lasted for less than 10 minutes while the second training lasted for 3-4 minutes! But it's true that OmniPOD is a very damn straight-forward issue. The SME that gave the training just went through the "crucial" parts of the 4-page material and ended with "Any questions? If no, I go out ah, ok?" We were like dumbfounded but happy anyway. We hung around until 6:00pm.

My brain is suddenly being stuffed with sooooooo many acronyms and names.. OVSD, ILC, CLM, ABS, CDP, HPIT, WRM, ANT, RAT, Octopus, Pony, dog, cat and all those animals........... more to come... @@

That was the last day of my second week in HP..

*psst*
Kidding about the dogs and cats.. but Octopus and Pony are for real. xD

First Touch

Finally I got to lay my hands on the system since I've started working last Monday. Basically what I've did was to create my profile into the system, set up my Outlook, share drive, Jabber and Omega (a HR related module that record our working time, MCs, leaves, etc). As soon as my Outlook was set up, 68 unread e-mail messages were waiting for me. =.=" Took me some times to finish all the mails.

It's been a week I have been MIA from my MSN presence. Tried logging into my account. Got surprised as it doesn't let me send and receive messages until I register my MSN e-mail address into this Symantec IM Security thingy and will gives reminder everytime that every messages sent through HP network will be subjected to screening and monitoring for certain authorities. Sound scary. @@ Don't care lah, since everyone here is using it and it's not like we will be getting our hands onto some confidential information.

At least today was a bit different from previous days.

Half-life

Almost half of my remaining life was gone.

I had a monthly meeting for Agilent agents this morning which started at 9:00am. I was actually feeling gloomy and sleepy when I reached there but was awaken by the smell of delicious McDonald's breakfast. Those were actually bought by dunno-who as our breakfast. *yummy* Feeling happy for the rest of the day. This was the day where we, the newbies were introduced to the rest of the agents (minus those night-shifters). They are going to Cherating for holiday! *envy* Of course we are not able to join as they had planned this way before we came in. Nevermind, there will always be other time. ;-p

*switched to sleepy+tired mode*

Attend my cousin, Alex's wedding dinner at Cyberview Lodge. Very, very tired and sleepy. (Sorry, ya) Dinner ended at around 11:00pm and reached home at midnight. Straight hit the bed! *zzzz*

The World of Jacky Cheung

It was the best concert among those I have went to. Well, he is supposed to be the greatest singers in the world of Chinese entertainment.

Set off from my office at 6:30pm and was the last one to go among the 3 cars but the first one to arrive, starving, tired and sleepy. Had a short nap in the car while waiting for the rest of them and while waiting for my dinner. Made it in just in time. Thankful to God, it did rained but not heavy. At one point, some spectators began pulling out their umbrella and others had started shouting asking them to keep it because it was blocking the view of spectators behind. Luckily, it stopped.

It is hard to describe the excitement here. Got get a DVD when it's out, original one of course! xD

Day 2 @ HP

Don't worry.. I'm not going to list down my everyday in HP. Today, work starts at 9:00am but don't know why I woke up at 6, out at 6:50 and reached the carpark at 7:20pm. =.="

Since I was a bit sleepy so I've decided to take a short nap. Set my alarm to ring at 8:30am, catch a shuttle and off to office. I think I was lucky then. I woke up 15 minutes earlier and noticed the dark sky and HP people waiting outside. Lazy to carry an umbrella, I quickly grabbed my things, out of the car and waited along for the shuttle. A while later, it came and as soon as I got in, rain started to drop.

Today was a bit not-boring than yesterday. We had soft-skill training and some teasing and drilling attacks, etc. The day passed a little quicker than yesterday but we left at 6:10pm.

Yeah, congestion free.. except for that TTDI - Sri Damansara stretch.. x_X

Yet, another day..

Day 1 @ HP

First day of work. Feeling? BORING! I guess first days are always like that. Other than boring, it was not a nice day actually. It rained and I had to walked 10 minutes from the carpark to the office and trying to find my way there.

8:20 am - Reached the HR office.
8:40 am - A girl from HP came to "collect" us (another 3 guys).
8:45 am - Brought us to the security center for our temporary tag and photo taken for our permanent tag (should have told me earlier.. so I can dress nicely.. wahaha xD kidding)
9:00 am - Into the department and a small meeting room.

From that onward until 12pm, what we did was basically sit, read and read more..

12:00 pm - Lunch time. Had the worst nasi lemak in my whole life so far.
1:00 pm - Continue with more and more reading.

Supposed to have a trainer but due to some flood or something, can't come.

5:00 pm - Started counting down to 5:30
5:30 pm - All rushed back home.

Conclusion: MY BUTT ACHE! x_x
