Yes - madness. Orders downloaded like nobody's business. And it's like the servers costs like some cakes or something. When i say a lot of orders, i really meant it. Today alone the orders came in like what normally a week of orders would look like.

But it all came in today - all in one day. I don't know how much more orders are going to come in. But I know for sure that the sales won't stop getting the orders out till the very last minute. They are damn desperate to get their sales recognised to meet their quarter sales number.

Damn - why can't they do it like earlier or just segregrate it over the quarter rather than lumping it all at the quarter end? Sigh.

You know, sometimes it's hard enough to find information about loans online. Especially if you are up the wall and needed information fast, and you need the information about loans offered now. Where can you find them?

I went ahead to MagicLoans to check out of i can find out any information about Home Loans UK. No - not that I'm getting any properties in the UK anytime soon - i'm just checking out the features available on the site. First impression - the color used on the site is just nice - nothing too fancy, and it blends well overall.

Offerings available on the site includes a callback request for loans, and the all-needed loan calculator. Yep, without a loan calculator, you can't legibly call it a loan website. You can even get your budget calculated to figure out how much you can afford for your home loan monthly installment.

All in all, good place to start looking for loans for home in the UK.

Damn it - now my boss is telling me that a lot of people in my department seems to think that I'm too free. Damn it. He, for crying out loud, know the fact that it's definitely never true. There's never a free moment in my current job, especially these few weeks of quarter end.

And now his boss seems to think the same too. Damn it. Don't they know that I have 2 screens, and work twice as fast, and multitask too? I can be working on one screen while still having a IM window opened on another. And the IM windows opened are nothing but work as well. Damn it.

Maybe i should just make myself look busy. How?

I got assigned new tasks by my boss again. Apparently, this new tool is going to be live next week, and i'm going to be the backup for the tool's subject matter expert. Which makes me the 2nd subject matter expert. Damn.

Which actually struck me right at my face - what did i do to deserve all this? The fact that i learned too fast? The fact that i can change to adapt with the conditions thrown at me? The fact that everything in my current company moves at light-speed?

Nevermind, if that translate into better grades during the fiscal year end review, and better salary adjustment, i'm happy to do it :)

Yes - i'm working today. And it's public holiday. Bad. It's cold - it's more like freezing at the place i sit. Not much people around the place i sit now, unlike when i was in my previous department, where you can still see human faces. Hehe.

Here? I can see more dolls and toys than human. In fact, i think i can count the people i see sitting around here with my 2 hands (perhaps, additional 2 legs as well). That's it. Damn - no body heat - no wonder it's damn cold around here.

Time like this, i really felt the need of a good hug. But nobody's here that can allow me to hug. Cannot be hugging wrong people - might make my life shorter. Hehe.

Finally, it didn't happened. At least, it didn't managed to go live as planned next week. Else - i'll have to start alone. Damn. I heard that that there's still a lot of more stuffs to be ironed out. And i really do mean a lot.

They should have just put off the go live till everything's ironed out and is working as planned. But i guessed this people just decide on a go-live date, and just decided on that, ready or not. This time - it didn't happened this way. There's way too many things that are still not ready.

Even the actual users - the project managers - are not fully well-versed with it. I don't know what will happened when everything actually goes live, whenever that is.

Remember my post about being fast? Today, my big boss asked me why do we need so long the time for some of the things that they asked to test earlier. I was saying, it's average time, as they may be using different kind of projects for setup. And maybe also the difficulties level were kept to the least.

But then again, if i'm fast, i don't have to slow down. When i slow down, i'll yawn, and be sleepy. And when i'm sleepy, i can't get much done. I don't like it. I hate to be unproductive. Gimme something to do and i'll be happy. Try not to overload me though. Haha :)

It's almost quarter end, and the pressure of the quarter end is almost coming. Every day, more and more sales downloads are coming in and almost choking us all. What I really look forward after quarter end would to go for some beach holidays.

You know what i really want to do? Spa. spa holidays are fun, and relaxing. And defitely refreshing. And definitely will make me work much better next quarter. But seriously, any kind of holidays would be fun. And refreshing. And great.

Now, where's that sun lotion? Hmmm....

Imagine starting to do something when the stuffs that you are supposed to use to help you is still not even complete. Means, it's there, but it's missing the vital information and parts to complete whatever that you are supposed to do. And this thing is supposed to be piloting early this week, and supposed to go live next week.

And this thing that's gonna happen next week is supposed to be helping us. I don't know - the vendor is sitting at our office, still trying to work out something. He's as blur as we do as well. What is gonna happened next? Nobody knows for sure. My big boss is still fighting for something she wasn't really that sure about, as the benchmark at other regions are using something else as measurement.

Let's see what's gonna happened next week. We have 2 days to go. Sigh.

Have you ever thought of going somewhere for vacation? Need to book hotel for the vacation as well? Need some place to book for your vacation hotel which the price is competitively cheap? Need to place your Hotel Reservations online?

Look no further than HotelReservations.com. I went and check out this site a few times to get estimations of my potential trips to Australia (that didn't happened just yet)and I'm surprised to find that the price is actually quite competitive and attractive.



One glance on the website when you landed at the site gives you that clean, professional look. All the navigations are kinda easy to look out for. While site navigation wasn't the best compared to other reservation sites, at least the navigation makes sense. They don't bring you jumping around, hunting for the next link to click.

One other thing that I like from the site is the fact that you can get group discount if you are booking for more than 9 rooms/day. Yes - very large group can benefit from this discount as well. While they didn't mentioned what are the discounts like, you could always give them a contact to find out.

One more thing that attracts me is i can book for hotel reservations and rent-a-car at the same site. In fact, i could also book for flights to my next destination should i choose to. And not only hotel stays, they have attractive vacation package to many destinations around the world as well.

While i may not book with the site yet for now (as I'm still looking for place to go, and also saving the money to do so), I have absolutely no reason not to do so when i wanted to. I just hope that they can give me better rates when they read this review :) Looking forward to holiday!

I don't get it. Is it wrong to be fast? Damn. I really can't understand these people. When you can do something fast, you report it as it is. Yes - i understand exactly what you meant when i don't have to be that fast to buy us some time.

But seriously, if things can be done really that fast for a simple project, might as well you report the time as the exact amount, and just say that it's based on a simple, uncomplicated project.

Simple? Yes - the person asking maybe the boss, but seriously, i would rather say the exact words that i got rather than to pepper it further. And the time that i used to set it up is, again, based on one simple, uncomplicated project. We never know what other people is using to time theirs.

To be fair, get the same project and benchmark it again. Better still, ask someone else to do it. I'm already known to do stuffs fast - might as well get someone else who does stuffs slowly to do it.

Damn tulan.
