Odds and Ends of Today

The real life starts after 6:00 PM. (Yes. Do you want me to explain the domains, ADMT, and Exchange Server stuff at work?)

IKEA again

We went to IKEA for the third time this week - the third time to buy many goods. I thought I have moved out of the target customer scope (src: this article), but again find it is more easier to choose IKEA stuff than other brand. (A reporter from Business Week interviewed me in Emal about my oppion on IKEA, I said, I love it very much!)

We bought new sofa and three Billy bookcases:

BILLY BOOKCASE

BILLY HT EXT UT 175 RMB

BILLY BOOKCS 80 495 RMB

BILLY BOOKCS 60 445 RMB

BILLY BOOKCS 60 445 RMB

BILLY N GLS-DDR 500 RMB

SOFA

EKTORP CVR S03 595 RMB

EKTORP N FRM S0 1000RMB

They ship everything to my door tomorrow - I caught the promoption that runs between July 23 or July 27 to void shipping fee (75 RMB).

Singapore

I got newsletter about the Singapore trip. The round trip flight + two nights 4-star hotel only costs 1999 RMB. That is unbelievable. Now round trip of three or four days in Singapore or Hongkong all drops to about 1999 RMB now. It is the same for other Asia destinations. No wonder why China is the fastest growing traveller exporting country. (The flight to Singapore departs at 23:55 and arrives at 05:00 AM the next day.)

Blogcn Resumes

Blogcn.com finally resumed. Thanks for the mistake in the dates, I found my some old articles in my Server Side RSS Reader.

Eric’s Love Story

Eric is one of my best friends. Check this beautiful love story with Minji. I am very happy with them and my best wishes for them. Eric should be in Hongkong right now to spend the precious three days (or four) with his GF.
