Power Outage in Vancouver!

Life 3 Comments »

Today is the second day of power outage in Vancouver. I am not able to work in the last 2 days because my office is closed. There are some offices at the downtown area that are affected. BC Hydro mentioned that around 2,200 customers have no power since yesterday morning.

This morning, I went to my office hoping that my office’s building is back to normal. Unfortunately, it is not open yet. Anyway, since I cannot go inside my building, I just walked around and took some pictures. The first picture below is taken at Pacific Centre, the largest shopping mall in Vancouver downtown area.

The second one was taken at Grand&Toy store, Canada’s largest office supply store. Their employees were not able to enter the building this morning.

Consuming Tylenol

Tylenol

(Picture is from Wikipedia.)

I am not sure what is happening to me. I am consuming tylenol almost every day now. For those who don’t know, tylenol is a well-known North American brand for pain-reliever drug.

Every morning (or afternoon), I have very bad headache. I have to take tylenol; otherwise I won’t be able to do anything. That’s why, I bring tylenol to the office every day.

Why am I getting this problem? No idea… It’s just started recently. At the beginning, it happened once every a couple of days. Now, it happens almost every day.

Is it because of stress? Is it because of the stock market? I wish I knew the answer.

234 Emails to Read

Yes… I still have 234 emails to read. Not sure what I have done recently so that my emails are keep accumulating in my inbox. I am going to spend this weekend to read all of them. Wish me luck… :)

Some of you may be wondering why the h*** I have so many emails in my inbox. Am I that busy? Most probably. First of all, I hardly checked my email during my last trip to Indonesia. After that, I had "job-transition". As you may know, I just quit my job at Nokia and started another new job. Another thing that also made me busy was my "part-time job" as a stock trader. Although many people say that stock trader is a dream job, it is actually an exhausting job.
