What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

Found this website yesterday and it's soooo true about me... What Goh Mong Ping Means You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life. You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone. Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs. You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life. You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you. At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself. You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated. You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for...

Tech·Ed SEA 2008

Tech·Ed has always been one of the largest and well known conference in the IT industry. No one in the IT field will not know about this event. Some even attend it every year. Well, I could have been one of them if I attended the full event this year, but unfortunately due to ticket constraint, I am only able to attend the event on the first day, which is today. This year's Tech·Ed SEA 2008 was held very early, which is in August, compared the last two years where it was held in mid September. My guess will be that September is the Puasa month, and the audience will be less if they held it then. Compared to the last two years, this year's event wasn't any surprise. However, this is the only year I felt like I've gained a lot in the first day itself: attended all talks in the afternoon session, got a lot of freebiesfrom the exhibition hall, joined quite a number of games etc... Maybe it was because we had only one day and had to gained the most of it... :-p And I enjoyed...

08.08.08

08.08.08... Once in every thousand years... I've managed to capture the exact moment of 08.08.08 08:08 on my office Cisco phone. A very special moment indeed. Today I also manage to meet up with some old high school classmate at IZZI, Bukit Bintang. It was great to meet everyone, especially David See (the guys in the center), but just that the time was too short - only one hour lunch break :-( . The food were served quite slowly, maybe cos there were a lot of people in the restaurant at that time... Looking forward to do this more often...

Understanding your body

想知道你的体型够标准吗?马上就算一算。 标准体重 = 身高减去100cm,再乘于0.9 标准上臂围 = 身高x 0.15 标准臀围 = 身高x 0.54 标准胸围 = 身高x 0.53 标准腰围 = 身高x 0.43 标准腹围 = 身高x 0.457 标准大腿围 = 身高x 0.26 + 7.8 标准小腿围 = 身高x 0.21 Sigh... still a long way for me.. :-(

七夕

Image
Today is 7th August, seventh day of the seventh lunar month on the Chinese calender, which is also the 七夕day. This is also sometimes called Chinese Valentine's Day. It is famously known for the story of Cowherd and Weaver Girl (牛郎织女). If want, you can read the story of this here . Today is also the last day before the opening ceremony of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. One world one dream. I am looking forward to see the opening ceremony and hope that me and my hubby can be home in time to watch it tomorrow... I've heard the radio saying this China had put a lot of effort in this opening ceremony and I believe that it's going to be a very memorable and touching, so prepare your tissues... Here's one of the photo from the rehearsal of the opening ceremony that I got from Beijing 2008 Olympic Games Official Website... Can't wait to see something like this tomorrow.. Tomorrow I'll be meeting up with some of my highschool classmates for lunch @ IZZY. It's been quite...
