Yesterday I woke up at 5am and watched the sunrise in the coast..
Lol..
That was not exactly what happened yesterday..
On Thursday, I was offered a chance to travel up to Scotland to help my colleague in building a wind mast which is used to measure the wind speed before they set up a wind turbine..
Thinking that it would be a good experience to learn some engineering stuff, I gladly accepted the offer..
Then, later in the afternoon, my colleague came to me to discuss the trip..
He told me that he was aiming to start work at 9 and so we had to leave newcastle at 5.30am..
I was shocked...
another 5.30am site visit...T_T
but the good thing was I get to witness the sunrise...
And luckily I had my phone in my pocket and even though it was 2MPX only, it was good enough to capture that valuable moment..hehehehe..
The world around me seemed to stop at that moment..hehehe..
The fact that it was my first time in the UK made it a sweet experience...

Fiuhh..
Been a while since I updated my blog..
Te previous post was not counted as an update since it was just a short poem I found off a site...hehehehe..
So, today's the Bank Holiday..
one of the rare Monday holiday..
It was a great holiday cause it gave so much free time during weekend..
but again, I was not very productive..
It was supposed to be a weekend of cleaning and packing..
but I slacked off and only stuffed my notes into a box...
Room is still messy and still plenty of things to be packed...
And today I fell into my friend's trap..wew..
She sent me a text asking "Are you free tomorrow evening?"
Thinking she wanted to play badminton, I replied "Should be free after work. Why?"
Then it turns out that she wants me to help her moving house..
I didn't know how to reply...
I spent quite some time trying to phrase the best possible reply..
and hopefully she will understand my situation..hehehehe..
Saw the above alarm clock off a site a few days ago and I was thinking that it would be a great birthday present for a mathematician..hehehe..
I have a friend who loves to solve problem and as I expected, he's a mathematician..
I've noticed that he has been very keen in solving mathematical problems since secondary school..
His enthusiasm in maths is something I've never seen before..
He would hunt for the answer he wants and will not settle with just a statement on how to solve it..
He will go on and ask for the rationale and etc..
but that's one type of person I like..hehehe..
I think the alarm clock is very creative..
It's true that for some people it will be annoying since you need to solve the cube to turn off the alarm..
but to people like my mathematician friend, I think it would be something he would enjoy doing every morning..hahahaha..
Oh..and I have a new blog skin!!!
I was listening to Ai Otsuka's song which I put to play in the background..
I love the song so much and suddenly has this urge to change my blog skin..
I have been wanting to change it for quite some time..
but I can't seem to get an idea for the theme..
and after I listen to the song entitled "Kurage Nagareboshi"
I thought.."shooting star might be a good theme for my new skin"
and there you go..
It seems two of my blog's visitors already gave positive feedback about it..
so what about the others?
What do you think??

I wrote your name in the sky,
but the wind blew it away.
I wrote your name in the sand,
but the waves washed it away.
I wrote your name in my heart,
and forever it will stay.

Hmm..
Today I was brainstorming for the upcoming events for Singapore Society...
and recently I've been quite busy..
not because of my work..
but something which should not have taken up so much of my time..
I am now an admin for a group in an online game..
yes, it is a game..
and a game is supposed to stay as a game..
no more..
but I do not know why I actually take this admin role seriously..
weird??
Yes it is..
but at least it gives me something to do back home..
Well, so yeah..
I was brainstorming for the events for next academic year..
and suddenly something came into my mind..
I've always wanted to be an engineer ever since I was in secondary years...
and suddenly I thought...
What if I'm not cut out to be engineer?
What if I'm supposed to be doing some other course?
These thoughts suddenly came to me..
Imagine you have been doing something for so long...
and you always believe that everything will turn out fine...
but suddenly you stop and think...
what if that is not the case?
what if I've been wasting my time all these while?
what if I've actually been fooling myself?
It's bothering me..
but I do not know how to answer those questions..
something is missing...
something is indeed missing...
