Chaos
Another day started... and I am still doing the same thing.. but I start losing my patience. You know about me that, I hate to do things when there are so many stuff that are beyond my control. Losing code, incapable to create stuff I need, have to struggle among for the limited resources. You may say that I am not capable to work in chaotic environment, yes, you really can say so.
Indeed, before commenting my style of working, should we put up the question, why on Earth should such an chaos be existed in the first place?
I know that there are times that things will getting screwed and being driven to a wrong direction. But there still are things, e.g. working environment, procedures, co-operation, which are all capable to be managed. Or else, why do we need manager, scheduler and alike? Are they simply to be existed in the sake of the need of existence? I have no idea.
Maybe I am low in morale for today, maybe really I am but I simply hate to work like that...

The art of simplicity
I am now playing with my new point and shot camera, nice stuff, all I get is 3 buttons and a trigger, no more and no less. But it could do just what I need or supposed to do.
This is nice.
Indeed, not everything on Earth are behaving like that. Just like the software I am using now (well, from a fame big blue company) which simply ignoring all these... what it has in mind is to tease everyone who gonna use it, torturing everyone to death without getting the damn job finished.. HA.
As someone who need to feed myself by programming, I always have to remind myself I am making something to be USED, not simply by making something.. but why on Earth that not every company will have this simple mindset in doing their business?

LIFE is never to be easy..
No matter how extensive you have been studying on a subject, you are still steps behind the reality.
I know that engaging in a project is not an easy task but not until now -- having spent my times into it that I now could UNDERSTAND what the hell it is like.
Eye soring, frustration, home sickness and any other thing that you can tell are all adding up together... indeed, there are things that I have never think of before -- team working, living as another entity in a different place, new friends (or well, foes) are all the things that I haven't thought of before... not to mention the interest part of local culture, cuision, scenery and babe X)
From what I saw, my buddy right here have all grown up, to a point that is quite far away from what he is before, indeed, it is not necessary to be a good thing. It all depends on how he is pushed/shaped into and the way how he is handling it.
Time flies, I hope that at the time I am back, I could be another me, on the better side of me, in Hong Kong.

Am I exhausted or what?
Walked straight for 3 hours, just to look for the books and items I have in mind, boy, at the time you found it, you will forget all the efforts you have to make. Indeed, the reality is, you will not be able to find everything as planned and legs are really soring X).
What's good for today's treasure hunt is. I can find the book of Edward Tufte finally! In case if you don't know, he is a professor in Yale on Statistics and Information Design. I have been looking for his books for ages.
You must assume that I bought it right away, but the truth is I didn't. Firstly, it is the $ it is being sold (way over priced when compare with Amazon) and secondly is the urgency. The book is nice but that's not what I need now... and the book talks quite a lot on stat. handling, so...
Anyhow, the journey of treasure hunting is enjoyable but if I don't have this damn sore throat, neck pain and insufficient of sleep, I will feel much more "rewardable".
