::last kiss::

after 1 1/2 days, i finally figured out what was wrong with this one sucker of a failure. amazing. i'd imagined that i've seen them all after more than 5 years in the profession. i think i was looking too hard at it when it's glaringly and obviously there to discover. ish.. ish.. ish... i need a vacation. felt lifted after the entire ordeal, especially when you have a couple of senior directors almost literally breathing down my neck since yesterday. glad got that done and over with. the not-so-good news? we haven't even reached the 'fun' part of the development yet! that's when we start getting into a higher gear.. more parts built and tested and thus more failures. by then hopefully we've weeded through most of the systems level issues and only deal with 'historical' wear-n-tear kinda failures. been asked by the boss about the impending product launch support in singapore.. so, i could be there as early as the end of march. hehe.. another trip home:)

the 'ayam masak merah' i prepared last night was excellent. thanks to lissa for her input.. couldn't have done it on my photographic memory alone!! thus i hereby declare that the dish is the best in colorado! considering that it was my first attempt some more. quite surprisingly really because i've never had the, urm, urge(?!) to cook the dish before. it's a very simple dish to prepare once you've done it, relative to other dishes i've prepared like 'chicken kurma' or 'kuah kacang' (peanut sauce). it definitely adds to my repertoire lah. wondering how much my two sisters, kda and mcwu, can believe this public tormenting?! hehe.. sabar je lah. anyways, we've still got plenty of ground to cover before any one of us can challenge kakak.. the successor supreme to mama's cooking prowess. kinda miss mama's nasi kerabu right now... *sigh*

well, the weekend's fast approaching again. some weeks past me by so fast that i can't remember to actually get anything done. some are absurdly slow that i'd remember almost every detail of what i went through. but those times that had passed by will not return, and we're stuck in the 'now' (until that passes us by) and the future to look forward to. cherish the moment and do something memorable for a change! have a good weekend (i still have a friday), drive safely, and be safe. ciao!
