various complaints and a happy note to start the day

was combing my hair after showering and realized how much hair got stuck on my brush!.. after that i put on my glasses and looked at the floor, and there was another bunch! my gosh.. am i 脱发-ing!?!? at such tender age! help! i don't want to have to rely on yunnan or beijing!!

i want to complain about my hotel shower! for some reason, the water temperature is not adjustable! it starts out really cold, until the water warms up, and after about 30 seconds, it becomes REALLY hot!! i tried to get the front desk people to help, but their english is not v good, so it's very difficult to communicate my problem.. and anyway i din want to wait around for them to fix it.. so i deal with it by rinsing my hair and body with the cold water, switch off the tap and soap myself, then rinse off the soap before the water gets hot!! this makes my showering experience really stressful! and short! and pathetic! haha.. i guess it's the hotel's way to save the environment! i will complain again in the weekend!

been trying to solve soduku puzzles from iht the last 3 mornings and till today i havent even finished one! either my skills are deteriorating, or my patience has thinned significantly!

for the 2 days after i arrived at israel, i've been leaving work at around 9-10pm for various reasons.. so yesterday i made it a point to leave before 7pm... BUT a few minutes after i sat down on the couch in my room, the phone rang and there was a crisis at work! so i had to support and resolve the crisis... this finished at 8.30pm and immediately i had to go on a call with sjc which went on till about 10pm! :( so much for trying to get off work early...

on a happier note, i just met kobi on the way back to my office, he was in raanana instead of hod hasharon today to meet a customer! haha haven't seen him in a longggg time! it was a brief minute long encounter, but it was cool meeting him again! :)
