did you know: - my alarm clock can automatically sets it own time..now beat that! see the other week i had to change batteries and i was feeling too lazy to set reset the time, date and alarm, i just did my usual super human ability of willing myself to wake up at a certain time, which sometimes works and other times, i just wake up swearing and rushing to get ready but yea to my own amazement, i got up and the time had already sync'ed somehow!! ashame it can't sync or remember the alarm settings..i even tested it the next day by taking out the batteries again and seeing if it would re-sync the time - and it did!! now how many of your alarm clocks can do that huh?
it was chinese new year celebrations at my place the other day..apparently the local university gave one of the house mates money to buy a shed load of food and to invite the chinese contingency over to our place..it was the usual..sitting around for 3 hours making dumplings..dough, meat, wet, crease, folder, done..oh and the conversation was..was..was pretty dry..seeing as language barrier was a big a fat wall called china *shrungs..it happens but all in all was a good evening tho, our german house mate did he usual trying to get everyone red faced drunk and yep, he was the first off his rocker..supposedly it was meant to be 60+ people coming, turned out to be about 16 in total - big surprise `:oD
in other news (yea boring work) our senior sysadmin is leaving, moving to the other side where the grass is greener and the money is more..the life of a sysadmin is never really done and i said to him "dude, when you leave, everything is gonna go tits up!" and his reply was "don't worry, there is plenty of time to pass down the knowledge" regardless it will prob go tits up anyhow..pretty annoyed he's leaving but it was only a matter of time, i could see it and it's point in my life i don't really wanna see..knowing me, i'd prob just take it on the chin and plus i can't be arsed to job hunt..ever!
for the last week i've been off from work..however im still on the fucking sms list who get alerts when servers are down! i get a txt msg when our important servers get kicked of the tinternet and the few amount of times i get that txt, get to computer, vpn in and have a look at the server and all the sites are already back up, few minutes later i get the txt alert saying the server is back up - its gonna get to a point where im gonna end up ignoring it! but apart from that, this week as been good to me, catching up with the family and neighbours
until next time, play safe `:oD
