it was yesterday

ok, fine, i woke up late today, late for the meeting with terry and t.gao...waking up on not-so-hazy saturday morning, and crawlled off bed with phone in hand, and the first text message i read was "where r u?" so i texted back while throwing away the jeans in order to reach my shorts, "home, getting dressed now, entertain yaself first"

i did feel bad for being late, so when i see the drink store at engine canteen was open, amazed and delighted, the aunite was so so beautiful, she's the star of the day...and two cups of milk tea sent my gulity away, but soon i realized i forgot to buy one cup for t.gao, and being too lazy to turn back, i decided that if i see both terry and t.gao in ibm lab, i would just say:"sorry guys, i m late, i bought tea for you two." then i would turn away and drown myself at the water cooler...it turned out to be not so bad, i was the second EARLIEST and i insisted on that, sometimes phrasing a word makes a difference, and more importantly, i can have that cup of milk tea, i needed it seriously..

we relocated to ise lab then, 'cause there was some tiling work outside ibm lab, and when i saw tiles being smashed by the jammer, i was thinking:" that's my money smashed away "...and can u imagine how psychopathic the ise lab administrators are? they screwed a glass panel onto the remote of the aircon, so that any attempt to adjust the room temperature slightly above 21 degree celsius would be declared futile, and those jet-engine-sized aircons overhanging there would warmly take away our body temperature, how sweet...

that's enough of my griping...

the work flowed cool, we managed to do some proper work, writing the paper like some policy makers as if the world will go nuts without us, and two days back we were concerned with amount of bullshit we were short of, and now we are concerned with how to reduce it...had my lunch again, in the ise lab where you will find the picture of a big cross over burger and drink.. anw, only the burger crossed out, it never cross out indonesia grilled chicken with rice...and i regret volunteering to throw away the trash, think i took it too hard for being late on a SATURDAY morning, and i bought the milk tea, didnt i?

i bumped a lab TA on the way out and the smell of indonesia grilled chicken gave me in..."no food in the lab." she said, i wanted to explain to her that it was only the burger being crossed, then again, thinking i still have 3 more semesters here, i swallowed that..." i was too hungry to move, so i asked my friend to buy food for me.." i must be possessed at that moment to come out with the worst excuse, but she laughed and let me go, people are not so square on saturday hur? and i bypassed this mechanical engine A/P meng qiang's office, the stereo in the room was blasting chinese songs that could be tracked beyond my birth, and i stood there a mintue getting amused..

left the lab at 7pm, and terry's got to go his friend's house to draft out another paper, poor thing...t.gao commented that both our bags were huge, adding to his comment, i said to terry, " imagine two of us are backpacking in lyon or somewhere, and blonds walking past us.." and before i could finish, here came the shocker reminder:"we are not even out of the door of ise lab"...spoiler, cant terry just be naive abit?
