I am still thinking whether or not to buy memory for my Samsung NC10. So far, it works great with the original 1GB RAM. It is running dual boot Windows XP and Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.5 without any hiccups. In fact, it runs faster in Mac OS X. Windows XP seems to run slower and slower as time goes even though I did not install any programs in it except UEFA Manager 2000. All other programs that I am using with Windows XP are portable applications.

On the other hand, I installed several programs on Mac OS X and it is still running perfectly. Thus, I guess that upgrading the memory will be at later stage and may be not necessary at all.

Yesterday, my office had an annual staff meeting where we talked about the happenings throughout the year and how we can improve our overall performance. The principal was invited and one of my colleagues had been awarded the longest service award. She received a travel voucher for her 25 years of service. That is a long time. Soon after the meeting, we went for our Christmas lunch. My manager, who was on leave, had joined us too. I had a fish skewers as starter, steak as main course and apple tart as dessert.

The Christmas this year seems different from last year. Well, there were more people during last year’s Christmas lunch. This year, one was sick and another one had to escort her family member to hospital. My manager had a minor car accident last week and a colleague fell down on staircases. Anyway, forget about the bad things happening and look forward to having a better new year.

Right at the moment, one of my colleagues is playing through her Christmas collection songs. It has been repeated twice and gosh, it is very loud too. Tomorrow, we will work until 1400. I wonder how crazy they will be.

I have downloaded a free MacJournal software and I aim to copy all the existing posts into the software in order to record them as a journal of myself.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

A few days ago, I read The Sun newspaper about the X Factor judge Cheryl Cole. A reader wrote and commented Cheryl Cole must be in some kind of diet or weight loss pills in order to have that kind of figure. Cheryl Cole was on a sexy silver dress and the reader even said that he/she can actually count the number of bones that Cheryl Cole has. The reader added that there is no way anyone can have Cheryl Cole’s figure naturally and suggested that Cheryl Cole is a bad role model to the people whole idolize her.

Well, the first thing I thought of was it is possible to have someone with that kind of figure, naturally. I for example could not get any fatter no matter how much I eat. Of course, I believe that there are a lot of people out there who are quite the same as me. Cheryl Cole may or may not be one of the people but it just shows how ignorant people (the reader) can be.
