Ugghh... still haven't fully unpacked from my trip. I need to get myself moving. Also prob need to move on to another job. Something more stable... something which I was trained in.
Anyway, nothing much happening. Leaves are once again turning color as another Fall season approaches.
Looks pretty... gotta get out more and enjoy things around me and not be so hermit like.

The First Cut is the Deepest
I know I'm a little late and this song in actuality is a sad song, but I just love it.

2 month haitus to Richardson, Texas AT&T
Wow after a 2 month assignment and $8k poorer, I'm back in Maryland Heights. It's good to be home, though I do miss the Triage team which I trained to do initial investigation for the OMS software by Amdocs.
Why Richardson Texas? Well because AT&T is there. Within that area there's Nortel and Verizon also and a huge AT&T building. Can't miss it if you're on Hwy 75. (2600 N Central Expressway). They even installed a new lighted AT&T sign so that if you're southbound on Hwy 75 you can see it's their building.
Hmm yeah worked like crazy.. filed 73.5 hrs the first week because of poor organization and each and all of us worked 12 hrs daily and many 16++ hrs.
To a certain degree I guess I felt kind of honored (for the first time in Amdocs) because they (not all of them only a smaller group) finally recognized that I had some talent and knack of doing some much needed help related to initial investigation for issues related to the ordering application software.
No offense to the people in Dallas, but the traffic is horrible and your drivers drive way to fast and tailgate.
Went to the 6th Floor Dealy Plaza Museum... quite sad to read the events of the assassination of JFK.

While I was there I found a small comfort zone... a chinese grocery place. Ohh yeah! And it's Aug Sept so I also found mooncake for sale. So I am guilty of sharing a small bit of chinese culture with the other folks in the triage team. There was pearl tea also.
Overall I still didn't like the idea of me spending my $8k and then only after jumping through 2 hoops I get my reimbursement. Even got fined for over limit spending. Anyway I hope I get my reimbursement soon.
I hope also my pay raise comes soon. Stupid staffing companies. Can't live with them and can't live without them. Possibly the true culprits of the H1b visa abuse.
Besides that, well things are somewhat back to normal. Restarted my life here in Maryland Heights. I actually turned off my refridgerator (why waste power on running the fridge if I am not going to be home for 2 weeks at a time?) and turned off the air conditioning. Not that I normally use them, only to cool off or heat the house just enough and then I would turn it off already.
So sad that my rose plant had died, but I guess one less thing for me to take care of.
I can't wait for winter to come. I think I am a winter person, I like the cold weather, fall leaves and snow. The only bad thing is if it gets dangerous while driving and having a dead car battery. That really sucks.
A bunch of my friends this year have been getting married. Maybe it's the wedding blues time.
Anyway, this is all the time I have for storied this time around. Hope to update more soon!

TB Case from Atlanta
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070712/ap_on_re_ca/canada_tb_infection_lawsuit
Sometimes it's good when you know the law, however when you act arrogant and defy orders, you are just asking for it.
It just shows a blatant disregard for the law and orders plus poor implementation / enforcement of orders. CDC should have their no fly list and stop people like these from flying if they already knew and had a case file on him.
He on the other hand purposefully took a Czech Airlines flight into Canada to sneak back into the US.
Anyway for someone to bring back a foreign bride from elsewhere, probably shows how crappy he is. Just my 2 cents about this incident.

Childish Malaysian politics
http://www.jeffooi.com/2007/07/omen.php#more
Malaysian politics is almost like Taiwanese politics, nothing against Taiwanese people and their politics, but just making a possible similarity.
There's a reason why there are stock yards and slaughter houses is to perform these sacrifices and slaughters.
You don't simply start a kenduri slaughter at a Parliament parking lot... if this is the case then the other MP's who comsume pork should do like in 1969 and setup the beloved pork barbeque at the entrance to the Parliament. All are welcome to com sniff some.
Anyway, that's the key reason why Malaysia is where it is, with all it's corruption, bickering and special interests, special rights with no real intention for the betterment of Malaysians.

Dim Sum and a matter of opinion
Life's good... the same slogan which LG electronics is using. I went for a nice good large Dim Sum treat on Saturday @ Hunan restaurant off of Page Ave. They are good!
Authentic and push cart dim sum. Cantonese and Mandrin friendly. Ok enough, sounds liek I'm promoting for them. Loh mai kai, Charsiew pau, Singapore noodle, tau fu fah, chee cheong fun, har gow, and siew mai... all in a good day's brunch. It did however burn a hole in my pocket.
Sometimes, there's only so much that you can hold yourself back when someone gives some opinion which you start loathing them... but of course I won't bow down and let that affect me... too much.
This stupid ass guy, old burnt out ugly looking database administrator thinks he's so great, but honestly I think he's a bigger loser. I now know to distant myself from him because he thinks that just because he's established himself here, he thinks he's so great. What a loser. Of course I'm no exception, but I wouldn't want to take shit from a low life like this. Why he comes up in this segment is because I recommended this restaurant for good dim sum.
I guess I never knew his true nature until he showed it saying that long distant relationship are crap. Fine I respect his point of view but as the saying goes, if you don't have anything nice to say, just shut up. Sometimes people just don't understand that you have no right to extend or imply your customs and tradition onto others. Anyway, he's a stupid ugly clueless guy. Even dyed his hair light brown.
Newsflash: asian people who dye their hairs are super fugly. Please take note. You will indeed look like a clown. Accept your distinguish ways gracefully and don't try to feign it.
Anyways, besides that nothing exciting happening. Just the same old stuff. All the more reason why I have to make sure I achieve financial success so that I can, to a certain degree distinguish myself from these stupid losers.
