Happy Birthday emails from...

Thursday, December 18, 2003

sister, huawei, michael and Woody and Jim on 107.5. :) Interesting combination.

Let's start from early this morning, well, more than morning, start from 12AM, I called Steve in LA for advice about the contract I need to sign with Performance Automation. He ended up talking about windy ideas about Lord of the Ring and Harry Potter books. After about 30 minutes talk, we ended the conversation on the phone and I went ahead to sleep. After less than 5 hours of sleep, I have to drag my ass out of bed and get ready to work. I installed Movabletype publishing system to the server and tested a few things. Before long, it's time to get off work. I intended to go to a concert, but the ticket wasn't coming as smoothly as I thought. Jin isn't as enthusiastic to help me at all. He ended up getting himself a pair of tickets and leave me for nothing for a while. He finally ended up with one more ticket from his friend and I finally get the chance to go to THE concert. I realized that I barely have time to eat. I grabbed a sandwich from Harris Teeter and plan to eat it during the concert. During my visit to there, I picked up a Tiramasu cake for my birthday. :) Due to a small defect on top of the cake, the guy over the counter give me a coupon to take three dollars off. Nice dude. That's quite a pleasant visit.

The concert is such a huge disappointment. It's very very old songs with very very old black singers singing in very very old styles. I stayed for about 30 mminutes and finally decided to leave. It's a very good decision.

The rest of the night is kind of comical. I drove out again after driving for so long in a day to get a bottle of Vin de Glacia. After I came back and getting ready to enjoy the nice night with the tasty wine. However, I rapidly found out there is no bottle opener. So, I had to drive out again and hopefull it's the last time to get an opener. Now, it's time to enjoy the night and most importantly, my 24th birthday. Happy Birthday to me, and have a lucky upcoming year. I made a wish before I ate the cake. Hope that wish will come true too.

Free Internet

God, this is awesome, I found a free internet to use at home. :)

No need to use dialup again until this dude find it. LOL

I was pretty depressed today for a while. However, I got better after workout. The sweat and other stuff make this depression go away very fast.

I finished reading the Runaway Jury by John Grisham on Thursday morning. It's an interesting book. Pretty smart, However, very cliche considering most of John Grisham's book are the similar pattern.

Interview offer

I checked out the website of career center around 2pm on Thursday and sent out a resume to Performance Automation. James McQuade is the president and he called me in the afternoon. We had a short conversation about the job opening and we set up a time slot on Friday, which is today to talk and it's an official interview. According to the job posting, this could evolve into a full time position. I hope this will happen. Cross my fingers.

Also, sister sent me the email with a contact person in Oracle. Maybe she will be able to help me in the job hunting process. Hope so. Wish me the best of luck.
