Untitled 1

For a good laugh, and if you work at an accounting firm - preferably a big four, go to the office in a tennis shirt and gym shorts.

The was probably the highlight of the day on Saturday, also my last day at work. Well, besides the squash games and the thoroughly filling all-you-can-eat of course. Yesterday wasn't too bad either. Watched the French Grand Prix with none other than teh schumy (who has apparently killed his blog).

There was one other thing....

I found out last night that I had a pretty bad case of Reye's Syndrome as a kid. Specifically when I was 6. All I remember is that was hospitalized, and all this while I've thought it was jaundice. But apparently it was a lot worse, and let's just say I got off easy. It could potentially have been worse... much worse. Not to go philosophical all of a sudden or anything, but it does put a lot of things in perspective. I'm glad I got lucky. A lot of other people don't.

That is all.

Endgame

I know Trezeguet's not going to be getting any sleep tonight.

Well that, and the fact that Zidane deserved a much better send off. His fault. But damn, Zidane is... well... Zidane.

Champagne Supernova

This song doesn't mean anything because it's not supposed to... but it sure as hell is nice.

The internship ends this week. Me, I got what I wanted out of it - 6 weeks of work experience, the resume line, some spare change, and the internship credit of course. KPMG is great but I don't think I'm coming back here next year. Maybe in corporate finance.

And it's now two weeks until I go to Bombay (again). Really looking forward to this... with any luck I'll be able to meet everyone I want and do everything I've got planned (two months without Super Smash Bros. Melee is two months too many).

Highlight of the evening: Watching some guy doing 72 get flashed by a speed camera on Beach Road. 72? I'm sure as hell not driving there if I can avoid it.

Bah

Done making predictions. I went 7 for 8 in the round of 8 and it's been a downhill slide ever since. Either way, all 3 teams I supported are out. Argentina, Brazil, and now Germany. Oh well.

That leaves Portugal and France tomorrow, with the winner facing Italy for the world cup. I don't care either way, but if Italy lose, it'll sure as hell make up for all the crap so far. So... go tomorrow's winner!

On a side note.
