My first training for 2006

Today I attended my first ever in-house training for 2006. Training topic "SPC and MSA" (for all of you who needs to know, SPC= Statistic Process Control & MSA= Measurements Systems Analysis). Well, actually I took the "basic" for this course sometime last year. So when I saw in our training timetable that this course was offered, I just signed up, expecting it to be the continuation of the "basic" course.

Set my handphone's alarm at 7:15 a.m., but only managed to crawl out of bed at around 7:30 a.m. Took a shower and rushed to company (only takes bout 10 mins). When i sat my ass down at looked at the training materials, I was like "what the...... isn't this the same material for BASIC SPC and MSA???"

Oh well, what the heck. Since I am already here, might as well just sit through it. Surprisingly, the trainer was a guy whom I have never seen in my entire life at 1si...Eh, correction there, should be X-fab silicon. Then later during the course, he intro himself as the module manager for QRA dept. Cool~~~ I think he's the coolest MM in our company. He can joke, he can smile, he can convey his message across to everyone, he can..... There are just so many qualities that he has and other MMs do not have. And effortlessly he managed to finish the whole course by 12 noon. After letting us have our lunch and quiz, he let us off....Yippie!!!!

What a wonderful world!!!

So painful.......my foot!!!

I went for foot reflexolgy this morning. Today is the second visit to this reflexology center located near Petanak market. I was greeted by the friendly staffs there. Today I had to wait for Mr. Lee (my preferred foot reflexologist) because he was attending to another person when i arrived. After a while, Mr. Lee came with one bucket of luke warm water and asked me to soak my feet into the water. And after 3 mins, he will dry my feet with towels and start to apply lotion on my left foot ( I am not sure why he'll normally start with left foot) and start to apply the force of a boxer with a killer punch to the base of my feet.......ngai tii....oh fuck....oh shyt....oooooouuuuch...

That's usually the pain that i have to endure every week. But one thing I know for sure that if I am able to sustain the pain for the few more weeks to come, my internal organs will be able to function better. So if this equation [present pain = healthier life + less complication in the future] is true, then i rather do some sacrifice now. *No pain. no gain*

Merge... merge... merge...

So, finally the company I am slaving for has merged. The merger between 1st Silicon and X-fab (Germany) has finally taken place yesterday (22-March) at 11:30am. With this merger I sure do hope that many good things will come along the way, i.e. overseas training stint, better payrise, fat bonuses every year, better management....and the list goes on (keeping all my fingers and toes cross on this :P).

But one thing which I think is kinda peculiar is the name of my new company after merger. From 1st Silicon => X-Fab Silicon. Probably our new uniform will look something like this:

Reading pleasure

Currently reading:



About this book:
While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci -- clues visible for all to see -- yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.

Langdon joins forces with a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, and learns the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion -- an actual secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, among others.

In a breathless race through Paris, London, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match wits with a faceless powerbroker who seems to anticipate their every move. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time, the Priory's ancient secret -- and an explosive historical truth -- will be lost forever.

THE DA VINCI CODE heralds the arrival of a new breed of lightning-paced, intelligent thriller…utterly unpredictable right up to its stunning conclusion.

sighz~*~*~

Well... Here I am again... the eve before my night shift starts. The only consolation I can take from it is at least this week I'll be on shift for 3 fucking nights (oh boy... i really hate my job at this point).

For the past 2 days, I have been trying to complete the application procedures to free myself from wafer hell and land myself in the "black gold" industry ( hint hint: this company has a big seashell as its logo).



But sadly, I just don't know how to complete it. It's not as if it's very very tough. I just feel that I must present myself to the very best level I can. Sigh~~~ I better complete this application ASAP if I wanna leave my current job in 3 months time.

Oh well~~~ wish me luck.

My First Night of Misery

Sigh~~~
Last night was the first night of my 2 months night shift. Some of you would be wondering ..."Hey, what's wrong with night shift?"... Well I'll tell you what's wrong. My official working time is from 7:30pm to 7:45am. But since I am the night shift Engineer on duty, I have to present all of previous night's equipment issues. Aduh~~~ So normally I'll end up going back at around 9am the earliest. Blah.......


Hopefully I'll "tahan " better tonight and the many many nights to come.


p/s I am kinda excited because this is my first time writing a blog. Wanted to start one ages and ages ago, but always forget. So hopefully I will be able to post as many blogs as possible.
