31st December 2010, Friday. Being the last day of year 2010, I joined my colleagues for the last dinner of the year in this special Korean Restaurant, Nak Won in Beaverton.
十二月三十一日，星期五。今天是二零一零年的最後一天，我和同事們一起去了一間韓國餐廳享用我們今年‘最後的晚餐’。
29th December 2010, Wednesday.
Been awhile didn’t put up something, so here comes my dinner for today: Angel Hair Pasta with creamy herb sauce, side dish: Coleslaw with raisins. 🙂 I really like the name of this pasta, Angel Hair. How nice. haha.
24th Dec 2010, Friday. It’s Christmas Eve! First time being so relax for my Christmas. 😛 Always been busy for the last few years when coming to Christmas. Finally, the first Christmas in US. In fact, Christmas Eve is an important day for US people. I believe this is the day they’ll choose to gather at home, have a great dinner, exchanging presents, and enjoy their family moments. Well, it seems like I ain’t gonna have a “White Christmas” here because it’s not even snowing. But I did enjoy myself in this peaceful silent night. 🙂
11th December 2010, Saturday. It’s my movie’s day! Best of all, the movie tickets are FREE!!XD It’s end of the year, under our company’s GPTW (Great Place To Work), every employee is entitled to claim 4 movie tickets FOC from cinemas around the town. This is the first time I felt my Intel badge is so useful. Go to the cinema nearby, swipe my badge, got my 4 tickets for free. Due to the fact that we can only swipe 1 time, that means each time we have to spend the 4 tickets no matter how. So, I coupled with my colleague, watched these 4 movies, two at a time, on Saturday and also Thursday.
10th December 2010, Friday. Today is not a working day for me. In fact, I was joining another department’s Team Building activities. You might feel weird why I had 2 team building events in the same quarter? The reason behind was kind of complicated. In short, the department that I am currently working under is different with this team building’s department. This department is the one that sponsoring my relocation fund. So, as long as it doesn’t make me to pay, no harm joining, right? 😛
十二月十日，星期五。今天對於我來說算是個假日，因為我必須要參加另一個團隊活動。你可能會奇怪為何幾個星期內我就要參加兩次的團隊活動？其實背後的原因還算是蠻複雜的，總之簡短來說就是因為我現在所工作的部門，和我現在所參與活動的部門是不一樣的，這個活動的部門是資助我過來這兒工作的主要部門，所以所有凡是過來這裡工作的都算會被此部門關照。嘻嘻，不管怎樣也好，只要我不需要付任何費用，參與他們的活動也沒什麼不好嘛，不是嗎？:P
