I have just finished my first week of work at my new position. Everything is going well and I have felt a lot healthier. I’ll hopefully be able to write more about it in the near future. 
What I want to share with you today is an “office time table” I noticed on the door of a professor’s room:
9:00 starting time
9:30 arriving work
9:45 coffee break
11:00 check email
11:15 prepare for lunch
12:00 lunch
2:45 browse the internet
3:00 tea break
4:00 prepare to go home
5:00 go home
5:30 finishing time
If you throw in some toilet breaks, you’ve got yourself a work time table without work. Now, is the professor just being funny? Is he following it for real? Or is it an ironic remark to his subordinates? I cannot find out, nor will I ever ask. 
Doesn’t it sound pretty sweet? I usually prefer having to do actual work, but I certainly wouldn’t mind lazy days like this once in a while!
In Mourning
On Monday, 23rd August 2010, eight Hong Kong tourists were killed in a bus siege in Manila, the Philippines. It was an event that shook and deeply upset Hong Kong citizens like myself.
There have been a lot of criticisms, suspicions and rumours surrounding the incident. I only hope a thorough investigation will be carried out and give the victims and their families the truth (and justice) they deserve. May the victims rest in peace.
I will hopefully resume blogging next week. For now, I shall try to avoid reading more about it and make myself feel better.
