holy shit...

if they make the GPS as an accessory to the PSP...I will never get lost on the routes of Singapore ever again!!!

decided to take advantage of the clearance sale at climb asia
there's a 15% storewide sale and 25% on selected items
so i decided to get my runners (quickdraws) finally...



and i decided to share 1 rope with chris (60m)..a thinner rope (9.8mm)

For the climbers:

Post Pumpfest:

didn't dare well/bad in the bouldering comp.
I pretty much got an hangover over route 1 and 2 and got the frights and didn't climb properly until route 3 seriously..

Route 1 &2: totally took my cool off

kindda pissed look with myself

In summary, flashed one and one bonus.
The flash was really quite easy, my kind of move, one mediocre dyno..blah.blah

THanks to martin for taking the photos for me

Post effects:
I climbed with chris at CA the next day.
By the end of it, i have no idea why my left finger hurt so much.(normally it is the right)
It was hurting like i never felt pain before, and it lasted for a few days..i couldn't even swing my hand too hand cause the vibrations generated will make me freeze up cos of pain. It was quite bad..but the climbing session took it away. I guess..been taping up more...

Work:
Finally i found a problem and the cause. (I think...)
But before i can see the effects, i have to go back for re-service..ya..ICT (in-camp-training)
damn..and i am INVOLVED IN SAF DAY PARADE..
how dumb can that get!
now i become like doing OT (cos you get paid when in army, and i work for certain days in my company and the rest days i will be gg for ICT, it's madness) for the whole damn month..but will still be climbing on SUNDAYS..does some friends hear me out there!

Found an ideal way to describe my job

It's mostly divided into 2 main parts:

1. Reduce process/cycle time and increase productivity
> This I am quite hopeless at cause my boss already worked on that for the last 10 years. I still cannot find significant areas to start digging.

2. Investigate defects and root causes
> This I came up with a very close fit analogy. It's really similar to Dr. House. you have a weird case, so you start doing different tests and coming up with different hypothesis to it. This is one of my favourite part of the jobs.

mama chin is gone..
it was sad but a relief
she looked too miserable and painful.
