*Ducks for Cover*
Okay... Sorry!!! Sorry it took so long to blog again...
Haha..
Hmmm... What to update about...
Oh ya... Did you all know I'm currently an intern at Mikoishi? Haha... Well, if you don't... I'm currently an intern at Mikoishi! If you do, well... Whatever... Lol...
About Mikoishi... It's on Mount Sophia... Sounds like some retreat on the mountain right? Lol... It's in town... Beside Dhoby Gaut Mrt... (- ,-) The flight of stairs to reach the office? 145 steps... Haiz... I'm attached to the QA team... And I test game.. Sounds like fun right? Omg... How wrong can you get... It's boring work... When you play game, you play to win... But, when you test, your objective is to crash the game, howsoever you can achieve it, without taking a hammer and physically crashing it... Lol... And, it's repetitive work... For every new build that is released, we do the same tests over and over again... Sian... Now... If it's for the sims, maybe it'll be less boring, but just by a wee bit...
Enough about it...
I've met some fun people here, at least... Like Raina! Haha... She's very fair, very pretty, but she's attached, so no chance for any male readers here... Lol... She just graduated from SP, with the internship being her last sem, I think... Haha...
There are other people... But I talked the most with Raina, I think... Lol... Now she's gone... :( Nevermind... Only 1 month + 1 week left to go... Haha...
Hmmm... I've exhausted that topic, I guess...
Erm... OH YA! I submitted a portfolio I've chionged out (in 2 or 3 days, I think) to Gambit... Well... I didn't really want to submit, because I thought that there wouldn't be time for me to do that... It was 9.30am to 6, 7, 8 or 9pm, depending on the OT, Mondays to Friday, and I couldn't really concentrate on making one... But cuz Linus and Raina keeps badgering me about it (not that it's a bad thing), I made one and submitted it on the last day of submission with Shafiq, Sky and Joanna... And, guess what? I spelled Acknowledgments with a typo... (- ,-) But whatever... Lol... I was shortlisted! But as a programmer... And guess what? I'm supposed to do the test in C#, which I've never learned...
But that's not all... I received the test on Thursday, I think, and I thought I would do the test during the weekend, when I can concentrate better... BUT! My laptop detected a hard disk problem... I called Acer, and they say that I should immediately back up the com, and stop using it... (- ,-) How am I supposed to do that test?! I tried to do it on my sister's laptop, and maybe it's me, but I just can't get started on the test on her com... Maybe it's because it feels different? Dunno la... But in the end, I gave up after staring at her com for like 6 hours... So, no Boston trip for me...
And with my lappy down for the count during the weekend... I did something that doesn't require me to re-back up my com...I watched animes on Youtube... Lol...
I finished Ghost Hunt, and it was creepy sia... The Doll House case... Omg... I will never like Dolls again... Usually I hate scaring myself, but dunno why I watched it... And I watched it till like 2am+, then dun dare to go to the toilet... Lol... I had to distract myself, so I just stop watching, played some music, and started reading some Tamora Pierce on Scribd... Lol... Read till 4am, then I went to sleep... Haha...
I'll update on what I read on Scribd some other day... The post is getting too long... Lol... Till next time... (HAHA! Sounds like TV show...)
