Dan: August 2008 Archives
It has been a month since I started working at my new workplace.Now my
life is filled with nothing but work. To illustrate this point, as I'm
posting this entry, I squatting in a datacenter in front of a server
console setting up an environment. Work is good I guess, takes away the
spare time I have and prevents me from thinking about rubbish things.
Brings in the money so that I can die with at least some money in the
bank. Wish I can more time for my dancing and piano lessons though.
Had an interesting exchange of SMS last night. Found out that there was a potential chance years ago when there was a really sweet lady who was interested in me (though I have no idea why she would be) was missed. She said it was because she felt insecure about me as I was a lady's man (?? what the?) and often had ladies around me (?!?! since when?) and was afraid to be with me. That was really weird as I've never been very good with ladies and more often then not, I'm pretty much alone most of the time.
I guess life is strange. I never could tell what others think of me. Not just with ladies, but at work and with friends. I'm constantly baffled by all the weird impressions people have of me. Am I really that conflicting or I'm really that hard to understand? All I really want is a simple life where I do not have to worry about where is my next meal coming from and able to enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Like have a good meal and wine with my loved one, enjoying the sunset and it slowly dips and disappear into the horizon. Feeling the cool evening breeze around us as we enjoy simply the companionship of each other. Appreciating the presence of each other and knowing we are there for each other. Perhaps thats already too much to ask for.

Chris Daughtry - What about now?
Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading,
From all the things that we are
But are not saying.
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?
Change the colors of the sky.
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you.
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night,
Love will find you.
What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?
The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day.
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace.
Shadows fade into the light.
I am by your side,
Where love will find you.
What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?
Now that we're here,
Now that we've come this far,
Just hold on.
There is nothing to fear,
For I am right beside you.
For all my life,
I am yours.

Haha, cannot resist posting this. Just got an email from VMWare regarding an URGENT patch. Same problems are encountered everywhere!
Dear VMware Customers,
Please find the latest update about the product expiration issue. From this point on, we'll provide an update every two hours. Thanks.
Problem:
An issue has been discovered by many VMware customers and partners with ESX/ESXi 3.5 Update 2 where Virtual Machines fail to power on or VMotion successfully. This problem began to occur on August 12, 2008 for customers that had upgraded to ESX 3.5 Update 2. The problem is caused by a build timeout that was mistakenly left enabled for the release build.
