Mood Swings

Somehow, I am more prone to mood swings lately. Got it today after listening to this song from Unicorn's OST. Strange... Maybe it is because I have been bottling up quite a bit of emotions. Ah well. If emotions get in the way of work, I will suppress it anyhow.

One more interesting observation of myself. Last week (I think it is last week. Short term memory do not function as well these days), senior told me VW passed by the lab. My heart suddenly dropped. First thought was "what is she doing here???". Second thought was a bit of a flash. I cannot really describe it. But I could vaguely feel "something". I think the same kind of feeling happened a few years ago. Another person called me asking how to get to my area. I was awaken from my nap to take the call. Interestingly (or may be it was false memory), I remember asking repeatedly if that person was coming. Turned out that it was about some other matter. Similar kind of feeling.

Like I said. If emotions get in the way of work, I will suppress it anyhow. At least for now.

Regrets never having chance to work with some people

Suddenly regrets never having chance to work with some people... Shall name them here. In case I forget in future.... They are mentioned in no particular order though.

1) Cui Rong: Seemingly smart girl, with comparable CAP to boot. Although from polytechnic, but can sense she is a cut above the rest in what she does best. Would be interesting to see her performance up close.
2) Rebecca: Another one from polytechnic. This is a "problem" child. Always asking question. I stress again. ALWAYS. Wonder what kind of insights she would bring into a project. Some might think only the dumb ask questions. But it actually takes a certain amount of thought to be able to ask critical question. You will surely be amazed at the questions she can think of.
3) Terenze: An interesting guy to say the least. Interesting to watch how he handles stuff up close too.
4) Jung-Pu: Might appear average at first sight. But I think she is juggling too many things at one go. Should be fun to see glimpses of genius from her.
5) 2 guys from SPS: One look, and you know they are smart. It's been a long time since I felt constantly
"pressured" by people whose abilities, I think, far exceeds mine. In the past, I did not really like it, since I am usually on the losing end... But now, I actually hoping such people would show up. They need not be "invincible". Just need to be better than me most of the time.
6) Eileen: The one from CFT lab. Looks like a young PI and sounds like a young PI. Hearing how she   handles her project group makes me wonder how we would do together in a group. Too bad she is one year my senior.

Ok. That's it for now. Must get back to work.
