Bernard catches the rolling ball from Eeloon (note: ball is still rolling~)

For me,

well, i have been here for around 100 days. Not too long but money is depleting like mad. Going to benelux (belgium, netherlands and luxembourg) and bordeaux in France in 2 days time. So hopefully there will be more entries when i get back in a weeks time. Amazingly, france got alot of holidays. So, research is progressing slowly, dun know how the hell can i finish. But i will see. Something for sure, i wont want to work in july. Somemore unpaid~

Oh ya, recently i 闯祸 in my lab. Was using this very delicate diamond wire cutting machine and i broke the wire. It cost 100 euros (220sing). Just when life gets better, i kanna this again. Panicked for at least 2 days. Si bei Pai Mia... But thankfully, using my survivor skills, i managed to make it sound like a natural phenonemon of the usual wear and tear.

i have been watching taiwan variety shows online. Like 康熙来了，大小爱吃，survivor and even sex and the city... and thanks to my hongkong friends, they gave me the link to dl latest albums. therefore, bernard the pirate is still active.. i even got the album for the olmypics 2008. 哈哈！


This is the link that has been helping me curb my boredom...

i've been pretty much into something called brocante in france. basically, flea market. there are 2 types. one is held by the professionals and the other is held by the locals of a particular region. The second one is alot more cheaper cause they are practically selling stuff that they really dun wan. So i happened to visit one on last sunday. Bought a 100 yrs old postcard (dated 1905)for 0.5euros ( 1.20 sing), 1 very old wallet for 1 euro and stuff... so my french buddy gaetan has been kind enough to help me look out for brocante venues and timing.

The wallet has a faded gold print "Lisieux". it's a place in France and i googled the picture of the gold print. So that's about all from me. =)
