Yeah, you read that right. It’s a Sunday and I’m working with five other colleagues (including my manager). It’s been a long while since I’ve had to come in to the office on a weekend or even work overtime for that matter. WL says that my work schedule is finally resembling a ‘normal’ one. Whatever normal means.

The reason we’re all at the office today in our Sunday shorts and T is because we’re prepping for a new software version release. The handover to QA happens on Tuesday and we’re performing final integration tests on the code changes.

Seeing some of the pictures brings back fond memories. It’s hard to believe that next year, I’ll be a decade over 18. Was having a dinner conversation with lkclee yesterday and he was saying that “eating out at a ‘dai chow’ place is a sign of getting old“. That’s a funny thought. I’ve been eating at those places for the longest time. I must be ancient…
