Contemplating

I am not the kind of person who would just think about changing job.

Recently, I have been contemplating, am I really happy with my current job?

Pay, average. Work load, huge. Pressure, yes and no. Overtime, definiately.

This year is also my fifth year tenture. Not sure if I should put it as a compliment, or a time to reflect what I have done for this company over the last five years and if I should work here for another five years, or head out.

Strangely enough, I took out the same resume which I applied for my current job. An outdated resume, of course. I started revising it, like a journal, I started adding different accolades and achievement from the last five years.

Saved the file, and updated on job listing website.

I am not happy with current pay, and want a better job with shorter hours. Maybe it is time for me to move on.

Happy New Year 2010

Welcome 2010.

Like every other New Year, I took the Taipei 101 firework. This time from my car. It was awful. I couldn’t even get out of my car to set up my tripod. The shots I took were so shit I am too embarassed to show.

Then I started my 2010 spending almost two hours driving home from the celebration area. The same distance normally would take only fifteen minutes if I had walked. Plus some dick scrached my car. Fuck.

Happy 2010.

So Small

After nine weeks, it is still the size of a pea. So small.

Speechless

I am nervous, but excited.

I still cannot believe what I just heard today. I am almost speechless.

Unbelivable feeling. It is just amazing.

I Drove Through 逢甲夜市

I drove down to to Taichung (台中) to attend my cousin’s wedding. Since it was such a long drive my wife decided to stay the weekend over there.

GPS worked well, it took me from Taipei to Taichung without much of a problem.

However, GPS doesn’t seem to know 逢甲夜市. On my way leaving from the wedding venue to the hotel, GPS too me right through the one of the crowded streets of Taichung City.

Luckily, it was only 3:30 in the afternoon. All the stores and food stands only just started preparing, but it was already very crowded, and people were starting moving in by the seconds. At one point, my car was virtually stuck in the middle of the nightmarket. People were staring at me and probably thinking why the heck would a car come driving in here?

The conclusion is, GPS knows roads, but it does not know places.

Happy Moon Festival

I ate a lot of moon cakes.

I am fat again.

I never really liked festivals which involve a lot of eating.

Anyway, Happy Moon Festival.

A What Typhoon?

What the heck is a Super Typhoon?

I have heard of small typhoon, big typhoon, but super typhoon? And there is one heading towards Taiwan right now.

Fantastic. I don’t care what it is but I hope I get another typhoon holiday.
