A good friend of mine is down with love sick. This thing is complicated, definitely easier said than done. I am partly to be blame for putting him in such a situation, but hopefully I will be the one he thank for if it turns out well. Speaking of experience, not that i have that much to offer either, I thought being straight-forward in a slow and steady way may be the best policy in this kind of game. Yay for me, because I got lucky. After all, if you fail, it's only embarrasment that probably last for a few days. Suck it up. Heck, if she is mature enough you guys can still be very good friends. Good luck:)

Work is going pretty well. Although microsoft decided to cancel the prototype that we have been working on, our sub-module still proved to be valueable for the team. Future products will continue to make use of our work. Sense of achievement per se. Lately I have been dealing with Synopsys DC and ICC. DC is annoying enough, ICC is just painful because most of the time I don't know what's going on, all due to my limited knowledge. But in the end of the day, i am happy to learn something new.

It looks like skydiving is out of question right now. $300 is a bit expensive but I guess it's not all about money. We all chicken out in the end booo! Nonetheless, I gonna hop around national parks in Utah in 2 weeks time!
