Just woke up for 9am lessons. And I seem to have dreamt of myself writing, rewriting, reviewing, editing my resumes, the entire night... Oh man... O.O

Resume writing is freakingly stressful... And someone told me a few days ago, "Well, the first is the easiest". Arrgh....

Whoa! Saw this on digg, managed to dig out the website: http://nearingzero.net/.

After 2 days of writing, rewriting, and reviewing, version 3 of my resume is finally done. Now I'm drained, mentally and emotionally.

Writing resumes is such a tough thing to do. It must be eye catching in both format and details, but not so eye catching so as to seem like a braggart. The most relevant or important stuff should be first, followed all the way down to the least relevant/important, but it should be simple enough for everything to go in at the first glance. And the worst part is, everyone has different ideas of how these is done. Sigh...

One of my friends sent me a job advertisement yesterday, on Linux/Solaris high performance network cluster management, and application deployment. Suddenly, I'm caught in a fix: I have never played with Solaris, or done anything with network clustering, but the job looks very interesting. I seem to have the other pre-requisites though, except maybe the graduation problem. Should I try?? This came so out of the blue that I wasn't mentally prepared at all.

And yes, the job is at Science Park, so I'll be around the same place again... Same few vegetarian stalls...

This is embarrassing. First, I keep thinking "Wireless@SG" is "Wireless@3G" (I wonder if it's because I'm dyslexic), then I can't connect to the network in Linux!!

Just saw one of the funniest game videos on YouTube: College Saga! Directed, acted, choreographed, etc by Mark Leung...

Spent some time searching for a good mailing list that can run off a user directory, and found this gem along the way.

Lurker digests emails from designated mailing lists and displays them nicely in a threaded forum-style html page. Like a forum, one can start a new thread, reply to posts, file attachments, and many more. Neat huh?

Today's the first day of school. Mr EU say I should be very enthusiastic about this, since it's (hopefully) going to be my last "first day of school", but somehow I can't find any shreds of enthusiasm anywhere.

I just found out I'm indexed by Technorati when I logged into the linuxNUS site. Geez, since I'm already indexed, I might as well claim the blog...

Cheers, and merry christmas!

Yeah, I was part of a charity donation drive organised by linuxNUS, donating food for the Boys Brigade Sharity Gift Box. The donation drive was launched only 2 days before the end of the event, but we managed to collect $100 even without much publicity.
In total we bought 60kg of rice, 2 big tins of Ovaltine, and 5 boxes of cerals.
Things could have been organised better if we had a few more days though. Maybe we could source for wholesale distributors to buy the food, or find someone willing to transport the food we bought from the distributors. Next time then.
Warm and fuzzy feeling...
