I need to think deep.

Postcard Row

Rdscn7851 Finally I found the Postcard row. Also known as The Painted Ladies. i always can see this photo from the tourist book mentioning that  "This is perhaps the most photographed vista in the city"

Here is the description I took from a website*

This is perhaps the most photographed vista in the city. It was made famous initially on postcards sent around the world, then to mass audiences by the television show Too Close for Comfort which had its fictional home in these row houses. It is the contrast of skyscrapers with Victorian buildings that is so engaging. And for the city, it illustrates its ability to embrace what is new and modern without turning its back on its cherished (though brief) history. This is an easy place to take photographs because of the park across the street.

Cough Mixture II

Guess what i think the 35 "Cough Mixture" might not work out well for me.
So my consultants have recommended me something. Robitussin.

Cost me just 6.++.
I don't know how the effect. At least it taste like cough mixture.

Supposedly need to buy Mucinex.
Due to I don't like the tablet, so I settle with Robitussin.

"Cough Mixture"

I left office early today in the mission of buying myself a cough mixture.


I have been coughing for more than a week.


It irritates people and I am not able to sleep well.


 


I went to a chinese medicine shop in hope that I could find some Cap Ubat Batuk .


"ooppssss...it is selling mainly western supplements"


 


Anyway I requested to have "


And the lady apologized she doesn’t have any of those instead she immediatelly introduce me a small bottle蜂膠 Propolis. (Bee glue after search in the net)


I have no idea what is that.


 


Well price always the first thing come to our mind..


"How much?"


"39......"


"!!!!!!" I didn’t catch the rest of the sentence...39???


 


She explained the benefit of the Propolis and why the brazilian bee glue is the best.

I don’t have cash but that’s not the problem.


The shop accepts credit. *Duh this is US.


I pull out my supposedly invalid credit card.


It surprised me one more time that the card no more invalid. That’s mean I am good with my credit again…haha..


 


I just drank it..


It is nothing I can describe…it doesn’t taste good.


It is very very bad taste


 


I am the "best" consumer ever.


Just hope that this 35 “cough mixture” or whatever could cure my throat!

Chinese New Year Preparation

Another 1 weekend then we say bye bye to the 2006 Lunar Year.
Welcome the New Lunar Year, Chinese New Year.

So what preparation have you done?

Since last week I have been working on with 2 Load Runner test scripts.
Expecially the citrix recording I was struggling. * Yeah that doesnt sound familiar to you ya

And then from this week on ward, I am supposed to develop an End to end business processes.
To 'extract' as much information as I can from my Mercury developer.
* I also know that's sound too technical to you

Preparing for the test day which fall on 19 Feb. *nod* thats 2nd day of Chinese New Year.
At the same time there are so many production issues.

For me my Chinese New Year preparation ended a month ago.
After I have finished shopping New Year clothes for my nieces and nephew.

My original Chinese New Year plans and so many of them have been spoilt many many times.
So I will end up .......

This isnt the first time I will be celebrating Chinese New Year at foreign land.
However, this would be the first time I will be celebrating the Chinese New Year without my family members.
And it could be only me alone.

If there is no other surprise news for me...
May be I will drop by San Francisco China Town on the first day.
I heard that there are Parade, lion & and dragon dances and firecrackers.
... finger cross...

This is *crab*..

Anyway  I wish my chinese Friends...
Happy Chinese New Year

and to all my friends
Wishing you have a prosperity year ahead.

Sick at state

When you are traveling, the last thing you want to know is sick.


 


Couldn't remember when was the last time i fall sick.


However yesterday was the miserable day for me.


 


I was having fever and very bad soar throat.


I hardly could talk because even when I nodded my head I could feel the pain.


I hardly walked around because I scare I fall. =)


 


I think I was in very bad condition.


So I start worry because normally if I sick it could be a few days and very serious and painful sick.


 


I seldom eat medicine. To prevent the sickness prolong, avoid more miserable I volunteer to find medicine. I allow myself to go home earlier.


Treat myself as patient. I slept earlier.


 


Well…I am recovering now.


I can talk, can walk, can drive, can work. =)


Finger cross.



The next thing you should worry about is to learn that your credit card's credit limit has reached. Yet you have a long way to go.
