Yet another Quarter over ...

Yet another work quarter over ... friday 27th June 2008 marks the end of yet another Microsoft Promo .. and the end of my regular part-time job @ SiS again ...
For the past two years , I have always been going back to SiS to work during my hols .. to earn some extra pocket money for the next semester ... Going back has always been fun , as majority of the colleagues are fun-loving and friendly , quite little politics , or should I say I have been lucky to be able to clique with most of them .
We have hit our targets this round, Me and CY hitting our VAR target , and the sales teams hitting their Revenue targets .. Its been good news for all of us yesterday, with the last minute grab for sales ..
I always enjoy the adrenaline rush .. the mad frantic grab for sales last minute . having continous ringing phones . To me , its akin to fishing ... Every Call / Lead I made .. is a fishing line ... when its time to close the deals .. u reel in the lines to see if there are any fishes ... Yesterday alone , I reeled in 9 "fishes" .. a very fun experience I never seemed to get tired of ..
The experience is very rewarding .. to have a deal closed .. and to assist the sales teams in their targets .. to have everyone achieve their targets .. its juz solid ..
Going bowling with them later .. gonna enjoy their company coz its not gonna last anymore as I will be going back to Sch soon .. Although I will still be working once or twice per week, the fun will just be less intense.

Operation Crystal Gate - 22060X


Operation Crystal Gate broke another record ... with more than 30 Singaporean participants from Wargh! and other groups from Singapore .. Same old place , different adversaries .. different gameplay , different strategies .. it wasnt boring ..


The morning thunderstorm did not dampen our spirits as we still pressed on through the JB customs .. "Bukit Ramly" became super muddy , adding to the challenges of our missions.. Our guys started to warm up and have a little orientation of their weapons .. and brushed up on their skills .. while waiting for our "opponents'' to arrive ..


It was a world of a difference , as we were well geared in our BDUs , vests , personal masks and gears .. while our opponents were casually dressed in bermudas .. Sleeveless T-shirts , One hero boy even wore a singlet.. What the hell were they thinking ??


To be fair and to balance out the disadvantages , We became the attackers , taking the tougher job of Chionging up the hill , with the enemies outnumbering us .. Given this scenario , we had to fully utilise our Comms sets and our knowledge of the AO ( Area of Ops) ..


No prizes for guessing who won the games .. but to be fair , they got better each game , while the slippery muddy terrain made it much tougher for us to fully take advantage of the situation ..



The paintballs were truly "seeker" paintballs .. They seemed to love the Singapore flags .. I had one on my left arm .. and One on my chestplate on my vest .. both times I got killed , I got hit on the flags ... HurHurhur .. No one Loves Singapore .. Not even the Singaporeans who were firing @ ME !! ..

The end of the holidays are coming soon ... time to fully enjoy whatever time that is left , before going back to school again ..
