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.
