Back From Bangladesh and a Wishlist of Sorts

First things first, I returned to Manila on February 28, 2009. I was in Dhaka from Feb. 10 to Feb. 26 training some 3D artists how to do low-poly stuff for Nintendo DS games.

Dhaka (capital of Bangladesh) was an experience. I wish I could write everything down here but I don't think so. All I can say is that I experienced a lot of good times there, and there were some really bad times too (bastard taxi drivers). I enjoyed the opportunity, plus I think I did pretty well regarding the training.

After Dhaka my two officemates and I spent around 36 hours in Singapore. We were there from Feb. 27 to Feb. 28. Had just enough time to visit Sentosa, and meet up with some of my old friends from college, Kitin and Chester. Plus we also met up with some of my officemates friends. Special thanks to Chester for treating us to dinner at Kuishin Bo located at Suntec. Great all-you-can-eat Japanese dinner. The timing was excellent since I was also getting a bit too tired of eating Bangladesh cuisine. The change of taste was most welcome.

My wishlist.

I really wish I had the following. In order of priority.

A new PC. AMD processors are super cheap now, but Intel has released the latest Core i7 or whatever. Some new super fast chip. I just need a new PC both for gaming and for 3D purposes. Recently I've been itching to practice 3D seriously at home. Right now I don't have the means to do that. Plus it is sort of hard to blog using my folks' computer. It just doesn't feel right using a Mac.

New underwear. Shouldn't have had my underwear washed at the specialised guest house (Aerolink International) in Dhaka. Most, if not all, of the underwear I brought along to Dhaka has been rendered unuseable because the garters are all stretched out. No, I did not gain weight. Trust me. I left Manila 101kg and got back at 101kg.

A new phone. Sony Ericsson k850i or the C905 or whatever. I need a phone with a good camera. Just so that I always have a camera with me. Lugging around a DSLR all the time is both a drag and a risk.

PS3. Must. Get. It. Fixed. What a waste, didn't even last me one whole year before it broke down. Dumb f*ck.

That's it. Just had to write something down on my blog. It's been over a month since I last posted an entry, after all.

Out.
