Last battle - 01

At Saturday I spent half day running simulation to improve load transient response. It was tougher than what I had expected so I need to spend a bit of time on reading as tuning parameter didn't work.

Today I spent half day revising theories on system stabilities and manage to get few ideas to try out tomorrow.

Why I spent only two half days? I think it's normal to tone down a bit after a high. The rest of the time I've spent on napping, chit-chatting, net surfing and went to Seng Siong to refill my food supplies.

I don't know why my memories easily come back to me whenever I go super market. When I choose fruits I recall the time that I stood behind my mother when she was choosing fruits every weekend, when I see vanhotten chocolates in 4 pieces packet I recall the time that I always bought this from my neighbourhood grocery store 志生堂 when I was young, when I see soya milk and chocolate cheese I recall my exchange life at CUHK, when I see Korean Choco Pie I recall the time that I spent with Korean friends during exchange, when I see snacks I recall the time that I was choosing snacks with IA colleagues in supermarket to refill snacks in office during lunch hour. Worst thing is, when I saw this yesterday at SengSiong:


Suddenly my mouth was filled with the taste of the delicious sauce/soup of mix vegetables and meats that were used to be cooked with this clam, by my father of course. We call this clam 鲍鱼菇. I haven't eaten this for almost 4 years le leh... Haiz... I am getting a bit home-sick.

If not for this bloody battle I would have gone back to my home long time ago. After this battle, no matter what, I will go back to my home to rest.
