//* Need to shop *//
Have to go and shop for a pair of golf shoes as a belated birthday present this weekend. I know there are a number of golf shops around town. But I don't play golf myself. So I don't know what's best and, worse, may even get conned by the shops. Maybe I'll call James...he plays golf.

//* Exercise not enough *//
It began to pour heavily in the afternoon, and I thought my plan for a jog in the evening is wrecked. But the rain actually stopped and my excuse was gone. So at half past six, I dragged myself to the gym to change. After a downpour, the weather is cool and the air is refreshing - perfect conditions for some exercise. I duly completed my rounds and head back home. I wish I have the discipline to do this 2 to 3 times a week - my tummy is becoming more and more unsightly!! :-(

//* Webcam!! *//
Webcam is up!! The "webcam" is actually my Canon DC. I have been looking high and low for applications that will allow me to use it as a webcam. I was almost giving it up when, lo and behold, I chanced upon Cam4you! It's simply the best utility for my DC, and its remote control feature means that I can now take automatic shots at regular intervals. What is left is to find an ftp client that will upload my webcam pic automatically as well. This I found in FTP Control. After hours of tweaking, the setup is finally complete!

//* A day in the life of ... *//
I had not intended to go down to the roadshow. But Leon called early in the morning to say that POS could not print and want someone to go down to fix it. Jon's handphone was getting directed to his voicemail. So I had to make the trip. When Leon called later to say he has fixed the problem himself, I have already told mum I am going out for lunch. So I went anyway, taking my DC along.
All the marketing people were there, of course. And I began snapping pictures. The crowd was slowly building up. Caught Andrea on candid camera as she walks by. Her order was to, of course, erase the shot. The shot is still, now, in the CF...hehe. After a while, I went off and walked into Carrefour where I bought the GP PowerBank. I need to get rechargeables for the DC that is comsuming alkaline batteries like nobody's business. I got back in time to see Fandi on stage and Elena among the crowd. It was about one past when I bid Andrea goodbye and then lunched at Delifrance. I like Delifrance sandwiches although I regretted ordering the soup. :-(
At home, XP could not start and I spent like 2 hours recovering from the corrupted registry problem. And that's one eventful day in the life of a nerdy blogger from Singapore...:p

//* Different Host *//
I have been thinking about moving out of Blog*Spot. I have heard wonderful appraisals for DifferentHost. So I should be moving pretty soon. However, I have not thought of what new domain name I should get. Anyone can offer some suggestions to help me out?

//* Liverpool 1 - 0 Chelsea *//
Maybe it is because Liverpool has just luckily won against Chelsea and is now top of the English Premier League - it is 1.30am and I am still not feeling sleepy...hehe! As the commentator of the game said, to win the championship, you must win games you don't deserve to win. A massive win for Liverpool...yeah!!

//* Packed *//
First, Mr Loke called to bring forward the driving lesson to 11.10am. Then Robert called to meet up for a dinner gathering at 6pm. This means I can bring forward my facial appointment to 2 o'clock, after which I can have my hair cut at City Slick earlier and be at City Hall MRT punctually at six. I was home the whole day yesterday with nothing to do, but today, when I have had everything pre-planned, someone's re-arranging my schedule nicely for me. Not that I am particular, just thought it's kind of coincidental.

//* Bonus *//
Today (well, yesterday, since it's already 12.45am), I received HR's letter to tell me how much variable bonus I get - little if compared to previous years but I'm already quite thankful. Hmm...I'm thinking about selling my m505 and getting the m515 with the money. Anyone interested in a 9-month old Palm m505 in good condition for about S$450? :-)
