Ah Beng's 'first cry' Anniversary

Major activities(work related) happened today. It was kinda unexpected as I thought it will be a short few hours of work inside the 'freezer room', the data center fill with tones of servers.

Due to the servers migration, we started from early SUNDAY morning, 0930hrs all the way till 1830hrs, a full 9hrs on a Sunday!But it was a pretty fruitful trip, learnt new knowledge -
technical(migration process - hardware and software, supported, unsupported method with unsupported tools and unsupported tools) and non-technical(discovered the spacious office of the system programmers, lots of empty seats around, DANGER! Why? The manager is planning a seat for either my colleague or me here. It's super 'Wooloo' - isolated. Pretty inaccessible from my place to the data center and it's gonna be time consuming.

I had to leave early for the steamboat dinner over at my house else I guess it would be easily a full 12hr for the whole migration to complete. Been quite awhile since the last steamboat with friends. True enough, it was a wonderful and YUMMY pre-Birthday steamboat celebration for our friend, 'Ah beng', Dominic.

SUPER BIG THANKS to MUMMY!!! Without her, this steamboat will only have 2 packets of bacon for all 7 of us. As I was out practically the whole day, Mummy bought those food, cut & slice, marinate and packed them nicely in the fridge.

The cleaning up took up some time(whole lots of plates and bowls) but with simple ingredients and some organising effort, it strengthen the bond

The FOOD

They seat in the room and relax !!!

Let the feast BEGIN 3...2.......

This was the worst part of the night, we planned to bring in the cake to the room with the singing of the birthday song symantanneously BUT we forgot about one CRITICAL DO's! PLEASE remember to SWITCH OFF ALL your fans in the are where you plan to bring in the cake. Here's the story, we walked into the room with the candles lighted and singing, "Happy Birthday to you, Happy BIrthhhhhh AHHHHH the CANDLES!!!" Damn Anti-climax man. Please learn from our lesson.
