My car was sent for repair, knocking, re-spraying as well as had its front mirror replaced. Total cost? RM3000. Yeah that’s a lot of money on the expense on my own carelessness..

This big dent was caused by an accident 6 months ago in Kuala Lumpur. I was going to visit KL Tower and eventually lost my way. Desperate to make a left turn from the right lane, a speeding motorbike from behind hit my car. The impact also caused my mirror to crack a little.

These scratches were caused last year August just after my graduation. Someone whom I suspect is a motorcyclist scratched my car when he was moving his bike..

Sometimes I am really careless when reversing my car. I knocked a pillar in my condominium’s car park because I didn’t look carefully. The brown patch was the result of knocking and painting to temporary fix it.

This is how my Satria looks now, all brand new. The sifu did a really good job and I recommend anyone who wants to have their car fixed to consult him

Well I didn’t manage to take any photos during my farewell lunch. The McD beside Sunshine Square was packed and the environment was not too suitable to take any photo(tables were dirty, many people walking around) We took it back in office instead
This is Ch’ng, our team’s “Dai Lou” Very experienced guy and funny. He was an ex-JSHS boy too, so can be considered as my two-time senior- high school and team senior haha.

Hock Soo, the lead in my previously involved projects. This guy is a joker too, can talk quite crazily sometimes.
Three of us joined the team here together early last May. Calvin on the left, Ethan on the right.
From L to R: Kee Huat, me, Wan Chai and Seow Ming(my supervisor) Kee Huat is in charge of our team’s support issues, he helped me a lot. Very thankful to him as he always provided me with assistance whenever I face difficulties with my tasks.

Lastly, this is my project team mate, Huan Ngee. She also helped me a lot when I had problems.

An obligatory last group photo before I leave

Few days ago I found out that I have a couple of high school friends, whom I haven’t seen for up to 3 years working in Dell too. Kien Soon is conducting his industrial training while Hui Fang is working in the Procurement department in AP2. Li Hua is also interested in joining Dell but too bad I am leaving after today. A pity I didn’t have much time to catch up with them, everyone has been busy. Anyway since today’s my last day working here, let’s take a small tour around

This is the new cafeteria I have been talking about in my last entry, quite big eh? Just completed about 3 weeks ago, it replaces both Dell’s old bakery and canteen.

From what I heard, Dell have spent quite a lot in decorating the cafeteria with lightings and plants like these.

A small stage for performances? Not sure because I haven’t seen or heard one yet. Look at the colorful balls hanging from the ceiling, don’t you think the decoration is very Christmas oriented lol?

This is the breakfast I had today in the cafeteria, Western breakfast set @ RM2.50. It has a small portion of coleslaw(not nice, yucks) a slice of slightly toasted white bread, a fried egg, a slice of chicken ham, a sausage, and some baked beans. They also serve nasi lemak and fried noodles.

Lets move on to my working place ^_^ This place is where my team works. Previously it was occupied by Dell’s customer support team, they have moved downstairs. When they were here, the environment was quite hectic but now it’s all peaceful You can see my cubicle from here too, it’s just under the red balloon.

Shown here is my cubicle, with the standard notebook given to all developers, a Dell Latitude D600, Centrino 1.6GHz with 512MB RAM. Performs ok for normal desktop applications but tends to lag if developing in VS.NET.

From L to R: Stationaty, leaflets, a box scribble papers I “snaked” from my previous company lol and my water bottle.

From L to R: Walkman I borrowed from my sister, my badge, Milo, cup, sugar and my bag. It is unexplained why the walkman couldn’t receive any stations’ frequencies except FlyFM and 988. But once you step out of the building, reception will back to normal.. weird huh.
A typical pantry here has 2 water dispensers and 2 vending machines. Sometimes people eat and have meetings here.


A close up of the vending machines, drinks are not free

Later today my team is organizing a farewell lunch for me at McD, so will try to snap some photos if possible

Well, surprise surprise. I received news that this Thursday would be my last day working in Dell as a vendor staff. I will be back to my company’s office working on internal projects (heard it’s an ERP) Friday onwards. That means no more car pooling with my brother *sob* I didn’t see this coming because I thought I would be working here for quite some time at least.

Anyway I see this as a good change, as I always wanted to get out of here lol. I have been hearing good things about my office, plenty of pretty girls, less pressure and more freedom Tomorrow I will bring my digital camera along to take some photos here. The cafeteria is new, spacious and nicely renovated, it is a must see The food served is another different thing though lol.

My PC has been acting up recently, crashing and lagging at times. Worse still, the network card failed on me yesteday after installing/uninstalling the TV tuner card last Sunday. So I had no choice but to format it, wasted one night to do that -_-
