I'm back
After 2 months of absence, I am back here writing crappy stuff that comes to my mind.
The past 4 months plus was a difficult time. It felt like the longest 4 months of my working years in the company. My past projects rarely exceed 2months but this one lasted 4! What's worse is that during these 4 months, a lot of long and enjoyable holidays past through with me sitting in the office working my head off. From Christmas to New Year through Thaipusam, followed by Chinese New Year and Nabi Muhammad.
My principle of not wanting to have a work-only life had me squeezing vacation and workouts into my already time-deprived life. I sacrificed a lot of sleep time in order to achieve that. In addition to that, I don't online, don't read newspaper, never watch TV, almost never logged-in to FB and I don't go yamcha with the gang.
I am so glad that it is all over now.
I have another one month or so before I need to start to worry if the silicon comes back working or not. *Wish that nothing would go wrong**
Many things happened during these period of time which I never get to write them down here. Like the one where I completed the Putrajaya Night Marathon. Or the Langkawi trip, being there to support a friend who participate in the Ironman. I was there in Langkawi physically but the constant SMS about work had my mind back in the office. What about the family vacation? Thought the project would have tapeout by the time I came back from vacation, and I won't have to worry about it anymore. But turns out, the project is still around and haunts me with even more critical issues.
All in all, it is really over now. Nobody can be happier than I am...

I'm happy for you too. Now you can have a more balanced lifestyle. :) You looked so stressed during the past few months.
