Chester

yes this is an update of my life.

at last the end of the week is here. been so busy with the deliverables of the projects in internship past couple of days that i feel that i can hardly breathe at times. a big hurdle is over but the internship duration is not. i wonder what will be still in stall for me in the next three weeks. working solo has its perks and downfalls.

well for perks, the pace is up to me. i prefer to be very focus during office hours so as to not work overtime or bring work home. this method worked well for me so far. efficiency is great too. i get to clear things earlier than expected. i also get to say "pause" to myself and take a short break whenever stress is too overwhelming. i have to answer for myself only after all.

as for downfalls, the work i do is sensitive. small errors might be compounded. working alone means there will not be anyone to cross-check for you as often or maybe none at all. small mistakes made might not be spotted in an instant. they are only spotted when some shit is clearly evident. that's bad because back tracking and correcting is really tedious, especially when your work is based on so huge data and code writing.

ohh wells, all in all i am still loving this experience.i left two big deliverables before i end my three months of internship and head back to being a student.. a final year student.

work aside, woke up to a really unfortunate news this morning as well. as most of you ought to be aware by now, Linkin' Park's lead singer Chester Bennigton has passed away from apparent suicide. personally, i always find suicides as a very selfish way to die. yes, a huge shortcut but the pain is gone for one person but the pain grows for many more others.

nonetheless, it is really sad to have such a young talented singer from a era-defining group to leave the world like this. songs from Linkin' Park have been a huge part of my secondary school life. songs that are very unique and distinct from other songs out there. thanks for the awesome years and may you rest in peace, Chester.

time to wallow in slight sorrow as i re-visit the great pieces sung by him. until next time then, cheers.

annual hype

yes this is an update of my life.

kind of lagged to talk about "Game Of Thrones" season 7 episode 1 considering that i watched it as soon as i reached home on Monday evening. well, i'm not one who spoils the storyline and what not here. just have to say the way it started is exactly what you expect this kind of show would start with. with confusion at the start before going "ahh, that's the GoT i know". the scene cued well into the main theme opening.

you don't need me to tell you the episode's cameo. all you have to do is explore your social media sites. i'm sure more than one person would have mentioned something about the person. nonetheless, for those who have watched up to season 6 but not yet start on season 7, don't worry one episode behind only.. faster catch up. for those who still has not watch a single episode of GoT, i feel sorry for you.. haha. kidding. not.

anyway, i realised that around this time every year when GoT is playing i will be into a new hype created by myself to set the mood for the show. from reading fan theories to informational video on GoT.. this year i am listening to the background soundtracks of GoT. lol.. 6 albums but only at the first one now. ohh wells.. this one not so hurry.

back to the life of an intern. well, done with the major projects i guess. doing up the report and slides and what not. had a frantic time past couple of days scrambling to make edits and what not. i'm glad i have the focus to finish them today. office can be a disruptive place for focused work.. it is times when people gather to chat slightly longer and at slightly louder volume where earpieces come into good use. okay, slightly past my usual workday bedtime. until next time then, cheers.

west

yes this is an update of my life.

yeah you might just recognise the picture and the title of the post to know what i am going to highlight in this post. binge watching yet another show titled "Westworld". no, i have not yet watch all 10 episodes of season 1 but i am not very far behind. three more episodes left.. probably going to clear them all by end of this week.

well, i guess this show is a fairly well-written show. the suspense and mysteries are ever existing. this is a show that makes you think and twist your mind in a very interesting way. the acting and characters are awesome. so far so good.. wonder how will it end.

not that excited to know its ending as much as watching the new episodes of "Game of Thrones". season 7 begins soon and i really cannot wait to rush home after work to watch. this means i have to be off the social media platforms for a longer while until i am done with the episode. avoiding spoilers and what not of course. until next time then, cheers.
