A Step Closer...

Yesterday I finally gave in to the temptation of getting an Apple product. I got myself a iPod touch! Silly as it sounds as this is no longer the talk of town since its iPhone cousin hit my country with all telco selling it. Reason of getting iPod vs iPhone:
  1. iPhone comes with a camera that really sucks. Although it improves from 2MP to 3.2MP, it is really a downgrade on my end from my current 8.1MP
  2. I still believe that the existing 3GS does not warrant me switching my belief that iPhone can make it as a phone.

Nonetheless, the apps really got me and I gave in on Saturday. I'm sure I would not regret on my decision to get it. The only possibility of me 'abandoning' this new gadget would be getting the 4th generation of iPhone that promises better camera and battery life in June.

So much for my new toy. I decided to go for my blood test today. So I went to NUH in the morning, feeling nervous. To be honest, I'm not those kinda person who likes to go for health checks, dentist, etc. Never had good experience for these. But... I still dragged myself there and to my surprise, the clinics are closed on Saturday! OMG... doesn't anyone fall ill on weekends? I just can't help but to feel even health care operates like a business... what has this world turned into???

Preparation for Grenoble Trip

This marks the end of the two weeks break... aargh!!
Not really in the mood to work this week. But nonetheless have to drag myself back to office. I realize I am not the only person who is feeling this way. I kinda feel worse because I'll be flying off this weekend to Grenoble for my team face-to-face meeting. Not feeling too excited this time because Ying Heng can't go due to the bad weather over that part of the globe. I last heard there is a 15-20 cm of snow and expected to be haivng a -5 degrees celsius next week. I'm basically moving from desert to a freezer. Crossing my fingers =(
